I was looking at V. R. Parton's description of Gorgon Chess, and it turns out that the Immobilizer is just a weaker version of Parton's Gorgon. Both the Gorgon and the Immobilizer move as a Queen, though the Gorgon can also capture as one, and instead of just immobilizing any adjacent enemy piece, it can immobilize any enemy piece within its direct gaze, which means on a space it could move to.
