Medusa was not one of the gorgon sisters, but was in fact a beautiful priestess who was raped by Poseidon in the temple of Athena. Athena transformed her into the stone-eyed monster we all know and love after this because having sex in her temple (consensual or otherwise) was sacrilegious. She was the most powerful and feared of all of them because she had the power to transform anyone she looked at to stone. She was beheaded by the hero Perseus (with some help from the gods), and he later used the head to turn the sea monster Cetus into stone and save the Princess Andromeda. He also later used it to kill his stepdad.
