			The '''Writhing Dread''' was a {{wiki\|gorgon}}, a type of hybrid beast created by the [[Isu]] as part of the [[Olympos Project]].

			===Creation===
			The Writhing Dread, alongside the rest of the creatures in the Olympos Project, was created as a "pet" by a certain Isu faction that considered themselves gods.<ref name="ACOd">''[[Assassin's Creed: Odyssey]]''</ref>

	==~~History~~==		===Mythology===
	~~During~~ the ~~XVI~~ century [[~~Spanish conquest~~ of the ~~Inca Empire~~]], the ~~chasqui saw much work~~, ~~due to emperor~~ [[~~Manco Inca Yupanqui~~\|~~Manco~~]]'s ~~campaigns~~. In ~~1536,~~ [[~~Spain~~\|~~Spanish~~]] [[~~Templars~~]] ~~conspired~~ with ~~traitorous chasqui~~ to ~~take the emperor's life.~~ [[~~Quila~~]], ~~a female chasqui denigrated~~ by her ~~peers~~, ~~discovered~~ the ~~plot hidden in a quipu~~. ~~Attempting to save the emperor~~'s ~~life~~, ~~she obtained help from Don~~ [[~~Gonzalez Pardo~~]]~~, an~~ [[~~Assassins\|Assassin~~]] ~~who had previously failed to prevent Emperor~~ [[~~Atahualpa~~]]'s ~~death~~.		The most famous of the Writhing Dread's incarnations was in [[Greece\|Greek]] mythology, under the name [[Medusa]]. In the legend, she was finally slain by [[Perseus]] with his [[Harpe of Perseus\|harpe]].

			===End of the "curse"===
			By the 5th century BC, the creature resided in the [[Petrified Temple]] within the depths of the [[Petrified Valley]] on [[Lesbos]].<ref name="ACOd"/>

			During the time of the [[Peloponnesian War]], an expedition traversed within the Valley and encountered the creature. All but one of the expedition party members were turned to stone by the Writhing Dread. Only the ''[[Mercenary\|misthios]]'' [[Zetes]] remained, having used his [[Gorgon Slayer\|spear]]'s length to avoid her petrifying gaze. In the end a [[Daughters of Artemis\|Daughter of Artemis]] arrived and dealt the final blow to the creature. Afterwards the woman was entranced by the aartefact dropped by the creature and transformed into the new Writhing Dread.<ref name="ACOd HitS">''[[Assassin's Creed: Odyssey]]'' – [[Heavy is the Spear]]</ref>

			At the height of the War, the ''misthios'' [[Kassandra]] gained entry into the Petrified Temple with the [[Gorgon Disk]] obtained from the Daughters of Artemis in order to find [[Ligeia]], the Daughter of Artemis "taken" by the creature, on behalf of her lover [[Bryce]]. Finding the Ligeia, now the Writhing Dread herself, Kassandra was forced to kill her after she petrified and destroyed Bryce.<ref name="ACOd WD">''[[Assassin's Creed: Odyssey]]'' – [[Writhing Dead]]</ref>

			===Legacy===
			After killing the final incarnation of the Writhing Dread, Kassandra claimed the artefact in order to seal off [[Atlantis]].

			The Medusa incarnation of the Writhing Dread and her encounter with Perseus endured as a myth into the modern day.

			==Weapons and characteristics==
			The Writhing Dread was a monstrous woman with [[Snake]]s for hair, equipped with a [[Swords of Eden\|Sword of Eden]]. She was capable of projecting a beam that would gradually petrify its targets, which she could then control once turned into statues. Through the power of her Sword she was also capable of shielding herself with a barrier, teleporting and shooting off energy blasts.
