Action
Petrifying Breath (Recharge 5-6)
The gorgon exhales petrifying gas in a 30-foot cone. Each creature in that area must succeed on a DC 13 Constitution saving throw. On a failed save, a target begins to turn to stone and is restrained. The restrained target must repeat the saving throw at the end of its next turn. On a success, the effect ends on the target. On a failure, the target is petrified until freed by the greater restoration spell or other magic.
Special
Trampling Charge
If the gorgon moves at least 20 feet straight toward a creature and then hits it with a gore attack on the same turn, that target must succeed on a DC 16 Strength saving throw or be knocked prone. If the target is prone, the gorgon can make one attack with its hooves against it as a bonus action.

Special
|BReath Weapon|Trample
A gorgon can use its breath weapon once every 1d4+1 rounds to create a 60-foot cone of green gas. Those caught in the area of the gas can attempt a Death save to resist the effects, but those who fail the save are immediately petrified. This petrification is temporary-each round, a petrified creature can attempt a new Death save to recover from the petrification as long as it is not caught within the area of effect of the gorgon's breath weapon a second time while petrified. A creature exposed to the gorgon's breath a second time while already petrified becomes permanently petrified, and can no longer attempt to make additional Death saves to recover naturally.
Special
|BReath Weapon|Trample
You can attempt to overrun any creature that is smaller than yourself. Targets of a trample take bludgeoning damage equal to two times a typical melee attack from this creature.
Special
|BReath Weapon|Trample
Victims may attempt to avoid the trampling creature and receive a Breath save to take half damage. You can only deal trampling damage to each target once per round, no matter how many times its movement takes it over a target creature.
