Gorgon is a name that has been intermingled with numerous creatures including medusae and winged creatures such as manticores and griffons. This is in part due to the use of the term by the Ancient Greeks, notably Hesiod, and goblinish scholars who identified the "gorgon" as an enormous hybrid of a Auroch bovine and a giant boar, with characteristics of both. It is this latter creature that this page describes; Greek legends of the gorgon are rightly applied to medusae. The Asian gorgon dwells upon the vast grasslands and northern forests of central Asia, and is very rarely seen west of the Ural Mountains.
The gorgon is a solitary beast upon the Prime Material, having broken free of the plane of Tartarus or deliberately set loose. Expectedly, finding itself at some random place upon the boundless expanse of the taiga or the plain, the beast will wander for months or even years in the wilderness. Once it finds a settlement, however, the beast will rampage, setting out to destroy
