Medusa is a figure from Greek mythology, known primarily for her ability to turn people to stone with a single glance. Here is a detailed account of her story and other associated aspects:

Background
Medusa is one of the three Gorgon sisters, the other two being Stheno and Euryale. The Gorgons were daughters of the sea deities Phorcys and Ceto. While her sisters were immortals, Medusa was mortal.

Appearance
Medusa is often described as a monstrous creature with snakes for hair and sharp, protruding teeth. She is said to have had a terrifying visage, which is somewhat contrasted by other narratives suggesting she was originally a beautiful maiden.
