DRU (DRUSILLA) Drusilla was born in London, England, in the 19th century to a Catholic coal mining family. She lived with her parents and two sisters (she may have had more siblings). |
Drusilla was gifted with the ability to catch glimpses of the future through visions. As a young woman, Drusilla was terrified by these visions. Her mother told her that she was cursed, that her visions were an affront of God. It was through these visions that she came to the attention of the vampire Darla. Darla pointed the young Drusilla out to her love and vampire fledgling, Angelus. One day, in the year 1860, Drusilla had a vision of a terrible crash, and the next morning there was a cave-in at the local coal mines, in which two men perished. Drusilla, tormented by her mothers words that she was cursed, often visited the confessional to tell of her 'sins'. |

On this day, the priest had met with his last confessor - Angelus. After killing him, Angelus was surprised to hear a voice from the confessional beside him. It was Drusilla's voice, and, taking on the role of the priest, Angelus had Drusilla tell him of her visions. She tells him that she doesn't mean to affront God, but Angelus tells her that the Lord has a plan for all creatures: |
Angelus: "Even a Devil child like you." Drusilla: "A Devil?" Angelus: "Yes! You're a spawn of Satan. All the Hail Marys in the world aren't going to help. The Lord will use you and smite you down. He's like that." Drusilla: "What can I do?" Angelus: "Fulfil his plan, child: be evil. Just give in." Drusilla: "No! I want to be good. I want to be pure." Angelus: "We all do - at first. The world doesn't work that way." Drusilla: "Father ... I beg you ... Please ... Please, help me." |
And he did. After this encounter, Angelus, who was by this time a vampire of one hundred and seven years heaving been born to darkness in the year 1753, became obsessed with the young Drusilla. He killed all of those she loved - her whole family - before enacting every possible form of mental torture on her. The ordeal left Drusilla tinkering on the edge of insanity. She finally escaped and fled to a convent where she was taken in by the nuns. On the day she was to take her Holy Orders and join the nuns in the service of God, Angelus appeared. He slaughtered the nuns as Darla appeared. It was here, with Drusilla now totally insane, that Angelus told Darla of his intention to turn Drusilla into a vampire. Drusilla ceased to be human after the infusion of Angelus' demonic blood. |

Angel: "I did a lot of unconscionable things when I became a vampire. Drusilla was the worst. She was ... an obsession of mine. She was pure and sweet and chaste ..." Buffy: "And you made her a vampire." Angel: "First I made her insane." |
After this, Drusilla, totally demented, remained with Darla and her Angelus. They eventually came across a young man named William around 1880 in London, who Drusilla took a particular liking to. William was transformed into a vampire by Drusilla, and she became his paramour. William became known as William the Bloody because of his vicious nature. Before killing them, he would torture his victims with railroad spikes, which eventually earned him the nickname Spike. Spike joined Drusilla, with Angelus and Darla and travelled with them. When Angelus' soul was restored to him Drusilla with Spike accompanied Darla into Romania to take revenge on the gypsies. The three of them were involved with the Boxer Rebellion in the late 19th century, in which Spike killed his first Slayer. |

Spike doted on Drusilla, and fulfilled every one of her insane desires. Angelus and Spike often fought over Dru's affections and safety. While it seemed that Angelus created Drusilla out of boredom, he still cared for her, even though he didn't give her the attention she needed. The attention that Spike provided. Spike always tried to live up to the example provided by Angelus, which is probably why he turned out to be such a ruthless and evil creature. Drusilla stayed with Spike after Angelus' soul was returned to him by a gypsy curse. |

Spike and Drusilla, bound together by immortal love, travelled throughout Europe, staying at places such as Paris, New York, Spain, and Prague. It was in 20th century Prague, the Bohemian capital (the modern capital of the Czech Republic) that Drusilla was attacked and nearly killed by an angry mob. Spike rescued her and they fled to Sunnydale. It was there on the Hellmouth that Drusilla, who had been severely weakened by the ordeal, would be able to return to full strength. |

Spike killed the local vampire leader, the Anointed One, who had taken over after the death of the Master at the hands of Buffy the vampire slayer. Spike and Drusilla took over the local vampire gangs of the Hellmouth. It was here that Drusilla came across her sire, Angelus, who now called himself Angel. His soul had been returned, and he had been recruited by The Powers That Be, through a demon known as Whistler, to look over Buffy and ensure her survival. Out of all the atrocities he had committed during his days as a soulless vampire, his treatment of Drusilla still ranked as the worst. |

Drusilla indicated that she missed Prague, which would indicate that the two of them must have spent some time there. It may have been there that Drusilla had obtained her collection of dolls, her favourite of which was Miss Edith. |
Spike's plans to take Sunnydale were constantly thwarted by the slayer and her companions. Finally, Spike sent the Order of Taraka against the slayer to prevent her from interfering with the ritual that would restore Drusilla to her full strength. What Spike did not account for was the arrival of a second slayer, who had been activated following the temporary death of Buffy at the hands of the Master. Spike captured Angel for the ritual, which would see the life force of the sire transferred to its fledgling. The ritual got underway but was interrupted by the slayers and their allies. Angel was not killed by the ritual, and he was rescued before the church they were in came down on Spike and Drusilla. Thinking them destroyed, the slayers left. However, they had not been killed. Drusilla had indeed been restored, and she easily carried the crumpled body of her love to safety. |

For Drusilla's birthday, Spike, wheelchair bound following the incident, brought together the dismembered pieces of the Judge, a demon who had the power to suck the life out of those with virtuous souls. Buffy and Angel attempted to stop this but failed. The Judge was assembled and Buffy and Angel were chased off. After this, Buffy and Angel hopped on the good foot and did the bad thing. This broke the gypsy curse that had restored Angel's soul. Angelus was back, and the first thing he did was find his Drusilla. Angelus plotted with Spike and Drusilla to set the Judge loose on Sunnydale. He and Drusilla accompanied the Judge to Sunnydale Mall, where Buffy and one mean looking rocker-launcher awaited them. The Judge was destroyed, and Angel's transformation was made known. |

Throughout the next few months, Spike and Angelus competed for Drusilla's affections. For Valentine's Day, Spike gave Dru a gold necklace featuring rubies embedded in a pendant, but Angelus gave her the still warm heart of a young girl, which more appealed to Drusilla's absent mind. A few months later, excavators uncovered the tomb of the demon Akathla, which was then stolen by Angelus and Drusilla. The demon Akathla was said to have the ability to create a vortex that could suck the human world into Hell. Angelus failed to revive the demon, and decided that they needed help from Giles, Buffy's Watcher, who was well versed in ancient rituals. While Angelus distracted Buffy, Drusilla went after Giles. |

When she arrived with her vampire troops, Drusilla discovered that the second vampire slayer, Kendra was there with Giles. While the others dealt with Buffy's friends, Drusilla faced off with Kendra. After fighting, Drusilla used her mental powers to put Kendra into a daze. When she was certain Kendra was in her power and totally warped, Drusilla slit Kendra's throat with the nail of her right index finger. Drusilla had killed the slayer, which activated the next, Faith. What no one knew, was that Spike had recovered from his injuries. Tired of competing for Drusilla's affections, he approached Buffy and offered her a deal: he'd help her take out Angelus and Akathla, if she's allow him and Drusilla to leave Sunnydale and never return. She reluctantly agreed. |

After Drusilla used her mental powers to trick Giles into giving her the details of the ritual to awaken Akathla, Angelus engaged in the ceremony. It was interrupted by Buffy's arrival. Before Angelus could do anything, Spike rose from his wheelchair and attacked Angelus with a metal fire poker. After knocking him out, Drusilla lunged at Spike and the two of them fought each other while Buffy took care of the rest of the vampires. Angelus awakened during the ordeal and drew the sword which had killed Akathla out of him, opening the vortex that would pull the earth into Hell. This distracted Drusilla, and Spike was able to choke her until she lost consciousness. Meanwhile, Buffy's friend Willow completed the original gypsy curse that had restored Angel's soul. As Buffy was about to deal the final blow, Angel's soul was restored, but she killed him anyway, to prevent the destruction of the earth, and to prevent the eternal suffering of its inhabitants. |

Spike drove off out of Sunnydale with Drusilla unconscious beside him. He took her to Brazil, but the ordeal had opened a rift in their immortal love. Drusilla told Spike that he had gone soft. She began flirting with every demon she came across. Spike even caught her kissing a Chaos demon, who are apparently 'all slime and antlers, they're disgusting!'. Spike declared that he didn't have to take that, and Drusilla said 'Fine'. So he said 'Fine, do whatever you like'. And then Drusilla said that they could still be friends. Drusilla left Spike for a Chaos demon. |

After returning to Sunnydale to find a way to win Dru back, Spike captured Willow and told her that she would do a love spell for him. Before the spell was finished however, Spike was attacked by his old minions, sent by the current vampire leader, Mr. Trick, and his boss Mayor Wilkins. In the ensuing fight, in which he was helped by Buffy and the restored Angel who had returned from Hell, Spike decided that he had been all wrong headed about the situation. He declared that he had to be the man he used to be again, the man Dru loved. He said that he would go back to Brazil, find Dru, tie her up, torture her, until she liked him again. |
Returning a year later, Spike announced that Drusilla had left him again, this time for a Fungus demon. The next year, Drusilla resurfaced in Los Angeles. She had been approached by the corrupt law firm Wolfram & Hart to help them on a project. That project was the removal of her sire, Angel, who had been causing them trouble. But Wolfram & Hart did not want Angel simply dead, they wanted to hurt him. They had resurrected Angel's sire, Darla, to try to bring Angel down, but that plan had failed. Darla had become too plagued by her human soul, and had run away to Angel to try and find some peace. Drusilla had been called by Wolfram & Hart to remove Darla's soul. This was achieved by Drusilla by making Darla back into a vampire. |

Drusilla sired her own vampiric grandmother, afterwards taking her to a plant nursery to await her awakening to the world of the undead. Angel found her hiding place, but Drusilla stopped him before he could kill Darla before she awakened. When Darla and Drusilla met back up after the fight, Darla was very angry at Drusilla. She dragged her onto the street and threw her in the path of several cars before Dru broke down in tears and apologized to Darla. Dru told her that she did what she thought Darla wanted. |

Drusilla got a call from Holland Manners of Wolfram & Hart telling Darla and her that they should have a massacre. What he didn't count on was the two of them choosing a Wolfram & Hart wine-tasting party as their target for their massacre. After an extensive shopping spree, Dru and Darla descended on Holland Manner's home, killing his wife after she invited them in, and then targeting the lawyers themselves in the wine cellar. Angel arrived to stop them, but instead allowed them to kill the lawyers. Darla killed Holland, and Drusilla had taken a particular liking to Lilah as Angel locked the cellar doors and returned home. |

Drusilla, along with Darla, massacred from fifteen to twenty lawyers in the cellar. But they let Lindsey McDonald and Lilah Morgan live, as Darla believed that maintaining an alliance with Wolfram & Hart would be beneficial to her and Drusilla's plans. They revealed to Lindsey and Lilah their intentions to make themselves the big noise in the Los Angeles underground. Drusilla and Darla made themselves known to the demon populace of Los Angeles at a kind of demon fight club. Drusilla tore off the ears of a disrespectful demon, sending a clear message to the rest of the demons that she and Darla were not to be triffled with. Darla told the group that her and Drusilla needed some 'muscular slaves' to help them in their crusade of destruction. All who thought they had the potential to fight were told to meet in an auto-repair shop. But Drusilla was troubled - she could sense Angel in the crowd, but he fled. When Drusilla and Darla arrived at the auto-repair shop, they found the mangled and dismembered bodies of a host of demons. Angel was sitting on a car, smeared with blood and gore. Drusilla sensed something was amiss as Darla spoke to Angel. He responded by flicking his cigarette into the pool of gasoline that Darla and Drusilla were standing in. Drusilla and Darla went up in flames, but Darla was able to breach a fire hydrant with a sledgehammer, which doused her and Drusilla. |
Several weeks later, Drusilla reappeared in Sunnydale, having left Los Angeles without informing Darla or Lindsey. Drusilla revealed herself to Spike, telling him that she'd returned to turn Spike back to his killing ways. She told him she knew about the chip in his head, going so far to say that she could see it within his brain. When Harmony came upon the two, she blasted Drusilla for hurting Spike so much, and told Drusilla of Spike's emotional problems spawned from his break-up with Drusilla. Finally, Spike turned Harmony away, telling her that he was back. |
Spike and Drusilla, reunited, set out for the Bronze, the local dance club. Drusilla spotted out two young lovers, and indicated them to Spike. Spike and Dru proceeded to the two's location, Drusilla killing the girl and handing her over to Spike. After a moments hesitation, Spike fed from the dead girl while Drusilla watched on, drinking from the boy. |
The two vampires returned to Spike's crypt to find Buffy there. Drusilla stunned Buffy with a taser, before Spike turned on Drusilla with the taser. Drusilla awoke tied to a pier, with Buffy across from her chained to a stone arch. Spike appeared and told Buffy that he would kill Drusilla if Buffy told him that there was the slightest chance of Spike and Buffy having a future together. Buffy declared that there was not, but Spike was interrupted by a cross-bow weilding Harmony. |

As the two fought, Drusilla freed herself of her bonds and attacked Buffy. Before she could kill her, Spike intervened. Drusilla told Spike that he was too far gone for her to help him, and returned to Los Angeles. |
