TACTICS

Before Combat She casts eagle’s splendor, freedom of movement, and invisibility purge. She also casts resist energy against any energy types she’s seen the PCs use (this is not reflected in her statistics).

During Combat She prefers to fight from above, striking with her snakes and using her gaze to petrify her opponents. She descends to bludgeon softer targets.

Morale Once her cetus is defeated and she is reduced to 75 hit points or fewer, she uses her earth glide ability to flee.

Base Statistics Without her spells, her stats are hp 248; Fort +14; Cha 26; Skills Bluff +30, Disguise +20, Intimidate +23. Reduce the save DCs of her spells and abilities by 2.

SPECIAL ABILITIES

Poison (Ex)

Snake bite; save Fort DC 24; frequency 1/round for 6 rounds; effect 1d4 Con damage; cure 2 consecutive saves. The save DC is Charisma-based.

Separated

Until she recovers her body, she is unable to attack with her longbow.

Unpetrify Legions (Su)

She can return a petrified creature to life (as if using stone to flesh) for 1 minute; this process takes 3 rounds of concentration while in contact with the creature, though she can perform this as a standard action on a creature within 30 feet by expending one use of mythic power. The creature is under her control (as if using dominate monster) and reverts to a statue at the end of this time. If she expends an additional use of mythic power, she can unpetrify up to three creatures within range simultaneously, or if she expends three uses of mythic power, the creature remains unpetrified for 24 hours instead of 1 minute. This ability modifies a mythic medusa’s unpetrify ability and replaces the summon snake ability.
