All this bother about medusas and political correctness and whatnot can be avoided as follows.

1. Male medusas exist.

2. Male medusas also have breasts.

Trivia question: What were the names of the other two gorgons?

Euryalé and Stheino. Google FTW.

Interestingly enough, I've never heard of Stheino before, but Euryale rings a bell.

EDIT: Ninjad by Kennew : (

Oh no, I can't believe the amount of effort it took for me to make the medusae into partheogenetic fey creatures. How do I ever find the time to do these things?

I don't think anyone said it was difficult. It is very simple to change the fluff of a monster.

I imagine everyone has their own monsters they have their own emotional attachments to and twists on. Medusa is one of mine. This does not make me irrational or foolish -- it means I am passionate about my idea of the monster as it stands for me.

Sounds like many posters think the maedar is cool, and apparently they're in Eberron as well. (Hey, who knew.) I don't think this is stupid, it just doesn't fit my idea. My poll was to see how many other people feel the same way. :)

Actually, there are no such thing as Medusae. There is only Medusa, she was a Gorgon. Given that D&D has always used her name as a species rather than an individual from mythology, however, I'm inclined to use male Medusae in the game. :)

Also:
Pegasus is a big lizard that breathes fire.
Batman is a flying superhero who lives in Metropolis and loves Lois Lane.
Odysseus and Helen ran away to the city of Troy and fought the invading Greeks.
Bugs Bunny is a giant blue ox that accompanies Paul Bunyan.
;)

Alternatively,
The present king of France is bald.

Hong saves the day again and confuses everyone with traps!
