Also Called[]

  • Half-Snake Men/Women Mimicry/Physiology
  • Human Gorgon Hybrid Mimicry/Physiology
  • Human Dreaded One Hybrid Mimicry/Physiology

Capabilities[]

The user with this ability either is or can transform into a hybrid between a human and a gorgon, a terrifying female creature of Greek mythology. While descriptions of gorgons vary across Greek literature, common features include hair of living, venomous snakes.

However, in some rarer occurrences, gorgons have been seen as male, challenging the all-female dominated species myth, but this is still rare among the gorgon races.

Applications[]

Classical mythology connects Gorgons to sea-storms, coral reefs and other dangers of sea:
