Biography
Medusa's childhood is unknown. She is the youngest of three sisters, which also include Stheno and Euratye. All three were once ravishingly beautiful young women, particularly Medusa. She was sought after by every man in Greece, however she was a priestess in the temple of Athena, and as such was bound by a vow of celibacy.

Although this vow of chastity meant Medusa's beauty was off limits, this did little to deter the sea god Poseidon, who had an affair with her.
