Medusas originated somewhere in Khyber, though there are conflicting stories of their actual origin. In 778 YK, a clan of medusas emerged from Khyber in Droaam and settled the ruined city of Cazhaak Draal. They are humanoid in appearance, resembling scaled humans with serpentine features, and a mane of serpents in place of hair. On average, they are more intelligent than humans, and perhaps their most well known trait is their petrifying gaze. Any creature that makes eye contact with a medusa is turned to stone, including their allies. As a result of this, a medusa will never make eye contact with someone that they don't wish to petrify, they will avert their gaze or wear some form of eye covering. This doesn't hinder them too much, as they can also see through the eyes of their serpents.
