Character Bio

Callisto was reccuring character on Xena: Warrior Princess and Hercules: The Legendary Journeys. She is one of the main antagonists of Xena and is the catalyst of many events, such as Solan's death and Xena and Gabrielle's crucifixion.
Callisto's anger for Xena started when her attacked her village, which resulted in the morbid death of her family. She then set out to destroy Xena's life in every way possible; She butchered entire villages in Xena's name, Swapped bodies with her in order to escape from the Underworld and told Hope to kill her son, which also helped cause The Rift in Xena's and Gabrielle's relationship.
When Hope rescues her from her imprisonment in the collapsed cave, she agrees to go back in time and kill Alcmene, Hercules' mother, to prevent his birth. She fails to do so, but uses the Kronos Stone herself to fufill a more personal objective - saving her family from Xena's army. In doing this, it is revealed that it was Calisto herself who inadvertantly 'burnt' her family.
Xena later killed her with the Hind's Blood Dagger, sending her to Hell. She was offered a chance at redemption, when the King of Hell asks her to make Caesar the Emporor of Rome and tempt Xena to follow Gabrielle's Way of Love. Her plan goes wrong and it inadvertantly leads to Xena's and Gabrielle's death.
When Xena and Gabrielle are sent to Heaven, Callisto intervenes with their journey and causes Gabrielle to fall into the Pits of Hell. Xena then attempts to rescue her, but ends up rescuing Callisto and sending her to Heaven. In return, a reformed Callisto chooses to be reincarnated in the form Xena's un-born child. The two are
