===Skills and abilities=== Xena has many skills that she acquired during her extensive travels across the ancient world throughout the years. She has remarkable skill and prowess in hand-to-hand combat, displaying numerous acrobatic tricks and the ability to disable or otherwise kill multiple opponents at once. She is also skilled in the use of pressure points β being able to cripple or even kill someone if she triggers the appropriate pressure point. Xena has extensive knowledge of first aid and herbal remedies that rivals any professional healer. Xena's signature weapon is the [[chakram]], a razor-edged throwing weapon which she often uses for ranged combat.<ref>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ds1LJTbHKn4 Chakram (Xena: Warrior Princess) β MAN AT ARMS: REFORGED</ref> Xena can skillfully deflect the chakram off the surfaces it strikes, allowing her to hit multiple targets in one throw. She can deflect the chakram back towards her, allowing her to catch it. Besides being a formidable weapon, the chakram has other uses such as distracting enemies or quickly cutting distant ropes. After breaking in half, Xena reforged her chakram with diameter "handles", called the "[[Yin-Yang]]" chakram.<ref>{{cite web|author=Amanda Kooser |url=http://www.cnet.com/news/real-life-xena-chakram-weapon/ |title=Real-life Xena chakram weapons fit for a warrior princess |website=CNET |date=22 March 2016 |access-date=2018-07-06}}</ref> These were utilized as daggers, could split in two mid-flight to strike multiple different targets, and allowed for "[[boomerang]]" flight capabilities. Along with her sword and chakram, she has also shown great proficiency with other weapons such as staves, daggers, and whips. Xena often utilized a signature war cry, "Alalaes". Her cry was an alternate pronunciation for "Alale" (or "[[Alala]]"), who in Greek mythology was the female personification of the war cry.<ref>{{cite web |first=Aaron J. |last=Atsma |url= http://www.theoi.com/Daimon/Alala.html |title=ALALA : Goddess or Spirit of the War-Cry |work=theoi.com |year=2011 |access-date=12 July 2014}}</ref> Xena is a formidable tactician, inspirational leader, and strategic thinker. She has the ability to analyze her enemy's tactics and effectively formulate a response. In responding to her enemies' attacks, she demonstrates creativity and ingenuity; at times, she has worked with little or no resources and limited time. Xena is well versed in military tactics such as forming a defensive perimeter, building defensive fortifications, organizing and leading troops, and cutting an enemy's supply lines. She also repeatedly demonstrates a talent for disguises, infiltration, and cryptography. Although the majority of her skills are martial and mental, Xena does have some supernatural abilities. On three occasions, she used [[telekinesis]] and energy projection thanks to Lao Ma's teachings. Xena also once possessed the power to kill gods through her daughter, Eve. Outside of these specific powers, Xena knows the rudiments of most other forms of magic, enough that she can effectively battle or outwit magic-wielding opponents.
