Seriana Ritani is the Themiscyran watch mistress and official
Ambassador. She stands about 5'6", has long auburn hair that
turns red in the sunlight, and is blue-eyed. She generally wears
pants with long-sleeved shirts, breaking the Amazonian custom of
wearing a bare stomach as a sign of courage; but no one who knows
her calls her a coward.
Seriana (Seri, to her friends) was born to Ritani of K'tai by
the god Ares. After her mother's death, she worked as an inn slave
in her home village until rescued by Xena at the age of fifteen.
Her time with the Warrior Princess uncovered the talents given to
her by Ares' line, and her estranged father claimed her soon
thereafter as his own. She served him for twelve months, then
escaped to the Amazons where she has lived ever since.
Between the teachings of her father and Jadea, her aunt and
mentor, she became competent in the use of her awesome powers.
However, fearing that Ares' blood could never do good, she later
rejected her father, power, and family. Seri's only kin now are
her Amazon sisters.
Despite her turbulent history, Seri is a calm and sensible
young woman, fond of laughing and silence. She is sometimes
solitary, and always slow to lose her temper. Seriana is fiercely
wary of men and protective of the tribal lands. She has passable
skill with the broadsword, longbow, and throwing daggers, and
wears the mask of the Silver Hawk, her totem animal and her title
of honor.
Seriana has gone on a nok'tana to assist her friend Autolycus
in a mysterious and clandestine affair. She rides Denius, a black
war stallion.
