It had been foretold...
Into each generation a Slayer is born. One girl in all the world, a Chosen One. One born
with the strength and skill to fight the vampires, to stop the spread of their evil and the swell of their numbers.
The
Slayer Code: Destroy all vampires with the obligatory aid of super strength, fighting ability and an acute and intense gift
of timing. With the aid of a Watcher-who trains and looks out for each Slayer-these superhuman do-gooders have been known
mostly to lurk in the shadows alone, following their prey-the bloodsucking undead. As you can imagine, these heroes have an
unhealthy expiration date, most dont live to see past 20. But this Slayer is different, she has the Scooby Gang and keen fashion
sense. Between her and her 'Team' it's not only vampires that they have chosen to undertake the responsibility to annihilate.
They also have to knock-off demons, monsters and just about every other kind of nasty being that can come to mind, well at
least they don't have to deal with Lawyers--YET. Usually, the end result of a meeting with the Slayer is a heinously bloody
slaughter of the 'unfortunate' nasty, sometimes accompanied by one of todays hottest bands.
Welcome to Sunnydale...
Essentially ground zero for all things naughty, Sunnydale, California was built on top of
an Indian Burial Ground, no wait, it's a Hellmouth: a portal to a rotted dimension that just about every slag wants to unlock
and unleash hell on Earth.
Coincidentally, in 1997, Vampire Slayer Buffy Summers moved to Sunnydale with her mother
Joyce to get her away from her previous school in LA after her parents divorced. You see, under the guidance of a Watcher
named Merrick our heroine torched her schools gymnasium during a slayfest against a bunch of overbites. Dont worry; we haven't
heard much about any repercussions from the incident or the movie therein. Lets just forget it happened and move on.
With the aid of her loyal comrades the aptly named Scooby Gang, Willow, Giles, Xander, Anya, Tara, Spike and her sister
Dawn, the Buffy has dispelled many worthy foes including; The Master, the Anointed One, the Judge, Angelus, Faith, the Mayor,
Adam, and Glory. As dedicated as she is, Buffy still tries to find the time to deal with the trivialness of college life.
Unfortunately, her love life isn't with frat boys and the like. It seems that even after dating the vamp Angel that she has
become romantically involved with one William the Bloody.
Ones strength can only truly be judged by their conviction
and dedication to their calling, their prophecy, their fate and their gift. Proving that she was indeed the truest of Slayers,
Buffy Anne Summers gave her life to obstruct evil Glory for the Dawn of our worlds salvation. Although the Slayer lore warned
that most Slayers don't live to see 20, Buffy was an exception...but not by much.
But now that she is back what
does the world hold for our heroine now? Prepare yourself for retribution.
