Lucy Lawless has lived up to her name.
The Xena: Warrior Princess star was taken into custody on burglary charges in her native New Zealand Monday after taking part in a Greenpeace New Zealand demonstration.
During the protest, Lawless and five others boarded the Shell-owned ship Noble Discoverer on Friday in hopes of disrupting its course and raising awareness against Arctic oil drilling.
