Tara

Tara is a reccuring character on Xena: Warrior Princess. She was an arogant but young person, often defying Xena and questioning her methods.

She belonged to the Red Valley Gang and seemed to be in a relationship with another member, Micah. Tara desperatly tried to get Xena's attention by beating up Gabrielle, creating a fued between the two when Xena allows Tara to tag along with them, claiming that she sees a lot of herself in her. Once getting to know each other, Gabrielle and Tara sort out their differences and the two become friends. She then left the Red Valley Gang.

Tara got into more trouble - breaking the law by dancing in a village where it is illegal, but Xena and Gabrielle sort things out with a little help from Autolycus.

She was played by Shiri Appleby.
