Gabrielle

NAME: Gabrielle
TITLES: Bard, Amazon Queen, Side-kick
PLACE OF BIRTH: Poteidaia, Greece
FIRST APPEARANCE: Sins of the Past
ADDITIONAL APPEARANCES: All
BACKGROUND:
Gabrielle was born and raised in Poteidaia. Having an adventurous spirit, Gabrielle believed that she wasn't cut-out for the village life her parents wanted her to live. She met Xena (in the first episode) just after the Warrior Princess had been persuaded by Hercules to fight for the side of good. Seeing this as her chance to escape her monotonous village life and engagement a dull farmer named Perdicus, Gabrielle snuck away to follow Xena. The two quickly became friends and traveling companions.
A gifted bard, Gabrielle was once accepted into the Athens City Academy of the Performing Bards. She most often uses her story-telling talent to ease other's pain, to bring smiles to otherwise worried faces, and to teach people lessons in life by using examples from tales she has heard.
In her first encounter with the Amazons, Gabrielle befriended Terreis, the younger sister of Melosa, the Amazon Queen. Terreis, however, had been mortally wounded by an unseen archer. Before she died, the young Amazon had passed all of her possesions, including her title as Amazon Princess, to Gabrielle. The Amazons accepted Gabrielle and trained her in the use of the staff. The compassionate bard chose the staff because she does not believe in violence or killing. On some occasions, the quick-witted Gabrielle is able to talk her way out of a bind, but often enough, she has to rely on her skills with the staff for self-defense. After Melosa was defeated by her adopted daughter Velaska, Gabrielle became the new Amazon Queen. However, since Gabrielle prefers to travel with Xena, she gave the mask of the Queen to Ephiny who now rules the Amazon Nation in her stead.
