[edit] Greek Mythology

In Greek myth, the legendary Gorgon Medusa had the power to turn to stone anyone who looked directly into her eyes.

[edit] In God of War

Medusa's Gaze is a power given to Kratos in God of War. After killing Medusa for the goddess Aphrodite, Kratos keeps Medusa's head and uses it's gorgon powers to turn his enemies into stone. Although this power doesn't work on other gorgons, all other enemies are turned into stone. Larger enemies take longer to turn into stone than smaller ones. Level it up further to increase its freeze power, and to gain more attacks with it. This Magic Ability is replaced by the head of Euryale, one of the two Gorgon Sisters.
