The Arch-Gorgon

From Wildermyth Wiki
The Arch-Gorgon

A type of powerful Gorgon. A monarch among the gorgons, grown massive with age or perhaps by nature, it uses its mastery of other beings for its own defense, and strikes with lethal force.

Description

In-game description:

It wears its stillness like a cloak, only shredding it to whirl its ancient blades, body writhing in a watery dance.

Lore

"To them, there is beauty in silence, in stillness, in the mute gardens of crystal, glass, and stone. They also seem to like tentacles and other wiggly bits. Oh, and the color blue." - Monstergenius Ted Gethers
