Xena's Father (Known as Atrius or Orestes ) is a mystery that has often been mentioned, but never confirmed throughout the run of Xena: Warrior Princess.

Not much is known about Xena's father, but fans have had ideas behind the theory; one of the more well known ones is that of Ares himself being Xena's father. Xena claimed that if she can hold her own in a fight against him, then he must be her father, although it was just a plot to trick the Furies into thinking it. .

He was killed by Cyrene when Xena was a young girl.
