Your base walking speed is 30 feet.

You know the poison spray cantrip. You can cast animal friendship an unlimited number of times with this trait, but you can target only snakes with it. Starting at 3rd level, you can also cast suggestion with this trait. Once you cast it, you can’t do so again until you finish a long rest. Charisma is your spellcasting ability for these spells.

You have advantage on saving throws against spells and other magical effects.

As an action, you can target one creature you can see within 30 feet of you that can see your eyes. If the creature is blind or does not have eyes, it is unaffected. At the start of the creature's turn following the gaze, the creature must make a DC 14 Constitution Saving Throw.  If the saving throw fails by 5 or more, the creature is instantly petrified (turns to stone). Otherwise, a creature that fails the save begins to turn to stone and is restrained. The restrained creature must repeat the saving throw at the end of its next turn, becoming petrified on a failure or ending the effect on a success.  Upon making the save, the creature is immune to your gaze until after the creature takes its next long rest. The petrification lasts until the creature is freed by the greater restoration spell or other magic that specifically removes petrification.  If the creature made the save, the creature is immune to your gaze until after the it takes its next long rest.

NOTE:  Unless the target is surprised, it can avert its eyes to avoid the saving throw at the start of its turn. If the creature does so, it can not see the medusa until the start of its next turn, when it can avert its eyes again.  If the creature looks at you at any point while maintaining your gaze, it must immediately make the saving throw. 

Medusa's are immune to their own gaze, however they can be affected by the gaze of another Medusa, or any other creature or magic that causes petrification. 

Your scalp is teeming with living snakes. You can use the snakes to make melee weapon attacks. On a hit, you deal 1d4 piercing damage, and 1d4 poison damage and the target is poisoned if not immune to poison.

You can speak, read, and write Common, Abyssal, and Draconic.
