Gabrielle is a fictional character played by Renee O'Connor in ''Xena: Warrior Princess'' (1995-2001). She is referred to by fans as the Battling Bard of Potidaea. Her trademark weapons are the Amazon fighting staff and later, the sais. She was also an Amazon Princess and later an Amazon Queen. The character's development and progression is a story that spans the entire show's run, with her first appearance in "Sins of the Past" seeing her as a naive farm girl, and the final episode, "A Friend In Need (Part 2)" seeing her as a fully formed but rational warrior, set to follow in the deceased Xena's footsteps. The dwarf planet Eris and its moon Dysnomia had the interim names "Xena" and "Gabrielle" until they were officially named. She was listed in AfterEllen.com's Top 50 Favorite Female TV Characters. == Creation and production== O'Connor was chosen to play the role after she impressed producers with her performance in the ''Hercules'' television movie ''The Lost Kingdom''. In the two musical episodes, Gabrielle's singing voice was mainly provided by Susan Wood.〔(Susan Wood on the IMDB )〕 (This may be because in another brief musical portion of the fourth season episode 'If the Shoe Fits..', Renee O'Connor's voice sounded like that of an opera singer.) In the episode "Lyre, Lyre, Hearts on Fire", O'Connor sang the chorus in "War" and the rap lead in "Gettin' Ready". ''Gabrielle'' is the French feminine form of the given name Gabriel, the Archangel, from the Hebrew meaning "messenger of God". The Greek transliteration of "Gabrielle" would be Γαβριέλα, (Gavriela).〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=A Woman of Deception: Gabrielle???! )〕 In Xena Italian dub, the character was renamed "Olimpia". 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Gabrielle (Xena: Warrior Princess)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
