40 Wait a minute: is Gabrielle an Amazon Princess, Amazon Queen, or a bard? (Xena: Warrior Princess)
She has gone from Princess to Queen and will always be a bard.
Gabrielle is a bard by nature -- a talker, a storyteller, and she
became an Amazon Princess when she tried to save the life of a
true (born with that title) Amazon Princess in the episode
"Hooves and Harlots". The character bestowed her rank, and all
that went with it, on Gabrielle just before she died. So...
Gabrielle, agreed to the girl's last wish, not realizing what the
girl's title/rank was until it was too late.
From this point on, we see Gabrielle in "amazon clothes", with an
"Amazon necklace" -- sometimes, and carrying a staff given to her
by Ephiny. She learned the art of wielding a staff during her
stay with the Amazons.
In "The Quest" and "A Necessary Evil," Gabrielle became the
official Amazon Queen, but she left Ephiny as Queen in her
absence, while she continues to travel with Xena.
