King Lias was a reccuring character in Xena: Warrior Princess. He is the father of the reccuring character Diana, a Xena look-a-like. He asked for Xena's help in "Warrior... Princess" when his daughter, Princess Diana, was targeted by assassins. This led to Xena and Diana switching places for the day. He was on death's door in "Warrior... Princess... Tramp", when his daughter and grandaughter are targeted again. This led to Meg impersonating Xena, Gabrielle being thrown in the dungeon, Joxer getting the wrong idea, as well as Joxer getting slapped by a princess, man handled and thrown in the dungeon too.
