The Slayer and her Slayerettes

Buffy

Buffy (Sarah Michelle Gellar) just wants to be a regular kid. She moved to Sunnydale to get away from her calling as the Vampire Slayer. Unfortunately for her, she moved right on top of the hellmouth. But she has made some good friends, some good fiends, and a boyfriend turned enemy turned boyfriend. She takes all of this in stride contemplating life with her watcher while staking vampires, and she manages to do it all without messing her hair or smearing her makeup (although it does result sometimes in a broken nail or two.)

Xander

Xander is Buffy's right hand man. He always has a hand to lend and a wisecrack to say. Xander developed an instant crush on Buffy and asked her to a school dance but she turned him down saying that she only thought of him as a friend. He's started dating Cordilia as of late but we all know he still has feelings for Buffy. And recently he told Willow he loved her as she lay in a coma. Is it platonic or something more? All we know is that Xander is always after what he can't have.

Willow

Willow, the quiet, computer savy friend of Buffy's silently carried a torch for Xander for the longest time. She's now met Oz, a blase member of a local band "Dingoes Ate My Baby" and the two make a really adorable couple. She's always been Buffy and Xander's main supporter. Always there with a shoulder to cry on and an ear to listen, she's become an invaluable resource for their heartache and trauma.

Cordilia

Cordy (not though her own wishes) has slowly become a part of the slayerettes. Her and Xander used to fight like cats and dogs until one day that burning hate became a burning desire and they started making out in broom closets, too ashamed to tell their friends. Finally, their secret came to light and they've been going out since (although they still fight constantly). Cordy has slowly been becoming less and less selfish and is actually beginning to become a resource to the gang.

Rupert Giles

Giles is Buffy's watcher. It is his duty to train and protect her and he tries his best. He is very devoted to his slayer and would sooner put his life on the line than hers. Always available for a long explaination or a bit of Brittish humor, Giles has proven himself invaluable to the gang time and time again.

Oz

Oz has just been recently introduced to the gang. He took the existance of vampires extremely well stating that it explained a lot. He is a guitarist for the band "Dingoes Ate My Baby". He is extremely in love with Willow. He's also a warewolf. Bitten by his cousin, Oz becomes a large wolf 3 days in the month. Willow doesn't mind though - as she says, three days out of the month, she's not too fun to be around either.

RIP

Jenny Callender (Jana)

Jenny, the computer science teacher, began her relationship with Giles much as Cordy and Xander began theirs. A bitter hate developed into a deep love. However, when it came to light that Jenny Callender was actually Jana, of the gypsy tribe that cursed Angel for his deeds, both Buffy and Giles felt bitterly betrayed. Giles had just forgiven her and she had just discovered how to re-curse Angel, when Angel, deciding he was quite happy soul-less, broke her neck thus instantly killing her.

Kendra the Vampire Slayer

Kendra was called when Buffy died, although Buffy was only gone for a minute. She was trained from birth to be a slayer and it was quite surprise when she showed up in Sunnydale and tried to kill Angel and even Buffy (whom she thought was a vampire because she saw her kissing Angel). The two slayers, although with extremely different points of view, teamed up together to fight the Order of Turraca and, Spike and Dru. She returned to her country for a while but then was sent back to Sunnydale by her watcher when Angel was trying to wake Accathala. Drucilla killed her by slitting her throat with Dru's french manicured nail after hyptonising her.

Angel

Angel was once a young man who lived in Ireland. Bitten by Darla, an evil vampire, he became one of the greatest plagues to mankind until a gypsy curse returned his soul. He then lived on the streets of New York feeding on rats until a good demon asked if he would like to help Buffy. He showed in Sunnydale every once in a while to offer the slayer a cryptic warning. Slowly, sparks began to fly and despite them both fighting it, the slayer and reformed vampire fell in love. Angel was sweet and devoted. He protected Buffy with his all until one night of passion between the two stripped him of that returned soul. He returned to his evil ways and was about to awaken Accathala to bring Hell on earth, when Willow recursed him with his soul. But it was too late, Accathala had been awoken and Buffy was faced with no choice but to send him to hell to close the vortex Accathala was creating.
