His or Her part in the show: (What s/he does in the show. For example, Gabrielle is Xena's side kick, was Amazon Queen, warrior bard, etc. 12 sentences describing her position please)
Virgil’s part in the show was small; however it was a good part. Virgil is Joxer’s son. We were introduced to him in the episode in which Xena and Gabrielle wake from a 25 year sleep in search of Eve. Virgil offers to help Xena and Gabrielle find Eve in Rome. He is later put in prison along with Gabrielle they then meet Eve “better known as Livia” in his own words. He is chosen to fight her in the arena to free the followers of Eli.Xena however gets chosen later on instead. After they are freed by Xena, Virgil offers to help Xena and Gabrielle again to find Livia and change her ways.Livia later on kills Virgil’s father and Xena and Gabrielle’s close friend Joxer.Virgil gets angry and has a hatred for Eve which is later on forgiven. Virgil has a soft spot for Gabrielle. Virgil also helped Xena and Gabrielle when Gabrielle went in search of Gurkan.
Extras:(Whatever else) Virgil is in love with Gabrielle.
Sample: (Write your best piece of writing in 100 or more words here)
As Virgil walked down the road he decided that this area was a good place as any to stop and take a break. He got a small fire started and used it to keep warm; there was a cold breeze blowing in this area. He opened up his pack and took out his wineskin and a small chunk of cheese and bread. There wasn’t a tavern for a few leagues yet and this was better than nothing. After he had finished eating he took out a scroll and started writing about his journeys with Xena and most importantly, with Gabrielle. She was never far from his thoughts. After he had written what he wanted he rolled up his scroll and put it away. He put out the fire and continued walking down this deserted road.
