Does withstanding the power of a gorgony's gaze and not being petrified count as being badass?

5889699 Very much so. If it follows with displaying her power and defeating her foe, brutally or otherwise, then it counts.

5889706 Are we talking Show related or fandom created?
I have made my own spell that makes Celestia a badass, but it's fan made...

5889720 My rules about it are all in the front page. Fan fic creats new magic all the time. As long as it makes sense within the confines of MLP and it's badass then it's a win win.
