Bio
Queen got its name in honor of Gorgona, from which they were similar like two drops of water. As described in the legend, Gorgona was too beautiful, and one day she was kidnapped by one of the servants of the God of mount Olympus, and then, her legs began to turn into a snake tail. Gorgon began to hate all life, and instead of her long hair began to appear terrible snakes, and her eyes began to stop the lives of all who she will see. The Queen with great pleasure joined the ranks of the forces of the Scourge and became one of the fastest and most agile of heroes.
