Medusas and Medusa Queens are level 4 creatures of Dungeon town. They are recruited from the Chapel of Stilled Voices.
"Armed with bows, medusas and medusa queens can attack at range to good effect. Their hand-to-hand attacks do the same damage and also have a 20% chance of petrifying their targets for three rounds. Petrified creatures cannot move, take 50% damage, and become unfrozen when attacked." RoE manual
