Born in 1981 to Hank and Joyce Summers, Buffy was part of the school cheerleading squad and a figure skater before her true path emerged. Growing up, the young Slayer-to-be was said to be as close as a blood sister with Celia, her cousin. When Celia died, Buffy decided to pledge her allegiance to her childhood hero, bladestress Dorothy Hamil. When Buffy was sidelined with a killer Flu and injuries sustained fighting Angelus we find out that Celia was actually killed by a Demon, that can only be seen by the sick, right in front of Buffy who could not see him--Buffy got her payback with a quick twist of Demon neck.  In 1996 Buffy was introduced to Merrick, a peculiar man who informed her that she was the latest entry into a legacy of chosen individuals--Vampire Slayers. He was a Watcher, a keeper if you will, of the chosen Slayer. Who could ever have imagined a high maintenance mall rat could move on to eventually save the world on 6 major occasions, and counting? Well, no one at her City of Angels high school could, because she torched the gym in her first major victory against the bloodsuckers. Thankfully our heroine somehow managed to avoid juvinal hall or any kind of lengthy court case.

Unfortunately for Buffy, her parents divorced after the horrible chain of events. An entirely new chapter in the Slayer's life opened when her mom decided to make a move to beautiful Sunnydale, CA.  Who would have thought that your duties of being a Chosen One wouldn't just go away when you moved?
