Telus was a character on Xena: Warrior Princess. Telus was one of the early love interests of Gabrielle, although their time was short together, as he died of an undisclosed illness. Telus grew up in the castle of King Sisyphus, as his mother worked for him.
He was able to convince Sisyphus to see sense and release Celesta, whom he had chained to prevent his death. Telus then said goodbye to Gabrielle and walked off with Celesta to be in peace in the Elysian Fields.
He was played by Kieren Hutchison.
