MY CLASS ASSIGNMENT

Willow Rosenberg

One of Buffy Summers' best friends and one incredibly powerful Wicca, Willow has seen Buffy through good times and bad, through happy times, and numerous apocalyptic times. She is one of the only steady and reliable sources of support in Buffy's life.

Willow has struggled to become the strong and capable person she has blossomed into. She has faced having a werewolf as a boyfriend/first love, has stood by Buffy's side through every disastrous situation, and through it all, they have always come out on top. From an evil Mayor planning to eat all of Sunnydale's graduating students, to helping to defeat a hell god, Willow has seen and done everything in her power to help Buffy. Thus in return Willow has received nothing, but support from her childhood friend Xander Harris and Buffy Summers. Without them Willows future wouldn't have been the same.

Alexander "Xander" Harris

Xander isn't known for his intellectual thinking, but his humorous adlibbing often brings smiles to the group's often serious or life threatening situations. He has been Dracula's unwilling slave, was once possessed by a hyena, almost eaten by a man eating praying mantis, and once cast a spell causing all women to fall head over heels in love with him. These are just a few examples of what Xander Harris has lived through. Whatever his faults, Buffy and Willow value their friendship to Xander. Even though Xander is just a "Normal" person (No super powers or magical abilities) He is still thought of as an equal when he's around these girls and the rest of their friends...for the most part.

Nicholas Brendan

Best known for his work on "Buffy the Vampire Slayer", Nicholas Brendan has made several appearances in movies like "Psycho Beach Party", "Pinata", and "Children of the corn 3".

She met Xander and fell in love with him, planned to get married to him, got left at the alter, and was once again granted her Vengeance Demon abilities until her heart got in the way and she could no longer harm innocent people.

Anya went through many changes through out the years though she was never considered normal, she was considered to be a part of the "Scooby gang".

Emma Caulfield

Emma Caulfield has been involved in acting since she was in high school. She got her big break when she was given a part on "Beverly Hills, 90210", she then moved on to a role on "General Hospital", and both of these roles lead to her getting the part of Anyanka, the vengeance demon, on "Buffy the Vampire Slayer".

Spike "William the bloody"

According to the watcher's counsel records, Spike is around 130 years old. Drusilla, who was pretty much the love of his life until Buffy entered the picture, sired him. She created him, loved him, and left him in the end when she felt like he wasn't the evil man that she had once known. That he held too much of the slayer inside himself.

Later on, after is return to Sunnydale, Spike had a chip inserted into his brain by a government agency known as the Initiative. This chip made him unable to hurt human beings, but he was able to kill demons, thus allowing him to help the slayer and her friends. He became one of their strongest assets and Buffy, though she had trouble telling him, appreciated his efforts.

Memories of her life were implanted in her mind and the minds of her friends and family to insure that her true identity remained hidden. But, eventually everyone learned exactly who and what she was, including the hell god who wanted to use Dawn to open the gate leading to her dimension.
