History[]
The Gorgon talisman was created by the Monster Council, as well as other talismans representing a different monster type. The Gorgon talisman represents the gorgons, while the others represent mummies, vampires, werebeasts, water monsters and frankenmonsters. Each talisman belonged to a member of the original Monster Council. They used the talismans to open a portal to Beheme in the school's wellspring of power during a Blood Moon Eclipse, with all the members of the Council present, opening the portal in a different can unleash disasters on the world. Many of the talisman were hidden as time passed by, while the Gorgon talisman was passed down by generations of Gorgons.
Medusa Gorgon was the last holder of the Gorgon Talisman, she used to wear it around her neck as a necklace all the time during her high school years. After graduating from Monster High, she left the talisman with Mortimer the Delivery Dragon, who she was close to, to keep it safe.
In "Spell The Beans", Medusa's son Deuce and frankenmonster Frankie Stein asked her where the talisman was, but she was nervous and just told them she lost it somewhere in the school. After remembering everything he knew about his mother, Deuce found a secret door in his locker (which used to be Medusa's) that led to the catacombs, where Mortimer keeps lost packages. Deuce and Frankie found the Talisman, but the Expel Beast accidentally got the talisman stuck on its tooth and it ran to the clawditorium. Deuce eventually managed to retrieve the talisman, and became its new holder.
In "Power Heist", Catarina Stripe, the new Were-Ruler after Selena Wolf got stuck in Beheme, arrives at Monster High as a substitute teacher to assign the students the talisman projects. She assigns the students to make presentations of the talisman in pairs, with Deuce and Goobert taking for the Gorgon Talisman presentation.
In "The Monster Way", during the Monster Ball, the Boo Crew represented a new Monster Council to bring Selena back from Beheme. Clawdeen with the Moonclaw, Frankie with the Frankenmonster Talisman, Draculaura with the Vampire Talisman, Cleo with the Mummy Talisman, Lagoona with the Sea Monster Talisman and Deuce with the Gorgon Talisman. They entered the school's wellspring of power during a Blood Moon Eclipse. While they were trying to oepn the portal, Catarina interrupted the ritual and possessed the All Monster Talisman to steal the power of the talismans and become the most powerful ruler of all monsters in the world, and then she trapped the Boo Crew in the catacombs. Fortunately, Draculaura cast a spell to get them all out of there. Then, Frankie remembered that there is only one talisman that can neutralize the all-monster talisman from Catarina: the Human Talisman. While the rest of the Boo Crew evaded from the other monsters that are possessed by Catarina via livestream, Frankie, Draculaura, Clawd, and Apollo found the Human Talisman, which is stuck on the front door of the Wolf residence. After that, Clawdeen and Toralei finally made amends with one another, and then Clawdeen gave Toralei the werecreature talisman while Clawdeen uses the all-human talisman to stop Catarina, Toralei's own mother. The final battle against Catarina has begun, and the Boo Crew are all using their talismans to neutralize the all-monster talisman. Suddenly, Catarina captured Apollo and tried to turn him into a stone with gorgon power. However, Clawdeen sacrificed herself to protect her father and to finally remove all the power from Catarina, defeating her in a process. After bringing Clawdeen back to life, the Boo Crew finally opened the portal and Selena came back to rejoin her family. After that, Selena stepped down from the throne and Clawdeen became the new Were-Ruler for saving everyone in Monster High.
