Like how 3e decided to create earth, fire, and air weirds in addition to the water weird. (And then turn them into hot chick oracles, for some unknown reason.)I'd say have variant medusa turn victims into solid objects other than solid stone. Glass or sand, wood (for a forest-dweller or Poison Ivy-type), beeswax (for a beekeeper medusa), coral (for a swimming medusa), bone (like that terrifying Fibrodysplasia ossificans progressiva disease), or metal. ...now that I think of it, the last of them would make for a very interesting origin for a (possibly intelligent) magic weapon.</blockquote>
