A Japanese Slayer activated by Willow's spell, Satsu joined the Slayer organization and quickly became one of Buffy's best and most reliable fighters.

* AxCrazy: Due to her [[TheBerserker Berserker]] tendencies. She's put several normal humans in the hospital.
* TheBerserker: She charges around during battle with no plan, and when she goes too long without a fight, she will seek one out, even if it with humans.

%%* MoodSwinger
* NotSoDifferent: To Drusilia. Yes, that psychotic and violent Drusilia, who entered the comics to Angel's horror sane, using a demon to heal herself and others she gives comfort to in a coven.

* WasItReallyWorthIt: She spends most of the first season's run [[RevengeBeforeReason singlemindedly obsessed]] with getting revenge on [[spoiler: Angel]], Pearl, and Nash for their slaughter of her Slayer squad, of which she was the SoleSurvivor thanks to Willow's intervention. In the final issue, after being nearly burned to death by Nash and killing him in turn with Faith's help, Faith tries to comfort Nadira by assuring her she had finally gotten her revenge, but Nadira has realized that it was never worth it in the first place and tells Faith as such.

%%* FairCop
* HeroicBSOD: Has one after [[spoiler:Cheung]] gets killed, and it gets worse when [[spoiler:she turns into a zompire and slaughters dozens of people, including several other cops. He manages to put her down, but most of the other cops in his department have a hard time dealing with the fact he staked his own partner, causing him to try and resign and take up vigilante vampire hunting.]]
* NiceGuy: Because of how he was with Buffy, Spike of all people sees what a good person he is and encourages Dowling to pursue her, before accepting Dowling's advice to be with Buffy when she needs him. After being abandoned and forgotten about, Buffy tries to make amends, but he holds no ill will towards her and when she breaks off the relationship, he calmly accepts it, happy to still be friends.
* ReasonableAuthorityFigure: He advocates giving Buffy a chance to help them and believing her while Cheung shoots down the idea.

[[folder:Bayarmaa ("Bay")]]

Oz's wife and a fellow werewolf, they met when he went to Tibet to learn how to control his transformations, and they had a child together. She helped teach the Slayer army to channel their magic into the earth to hide from Twilight.
----
* ActionMom: She wards off a massive werewolf using a knife while carrying a baby.
* BerserkButton: Do not try to to harm Oz.
* BewareTheNiceOnes: She will offer you a place to stay, instructions on how to deal with your inner demon and a seemingly never-ending amount of butter tea. But she also won't hesitate to speak her mind or even physically defend herself if you threaten her.
* ComicBookFantasyCasting: She was drawn to resemble actress Dichen Lachman, who played a character in Creator/JossWhedon's ''{{Series/Dollhouse}}''.
* DeadpanSnarker: One trait she definitely shares with her husband. When Willow talks about drawing less attention to themselves, Bay helpfully reminds her that "not teleporting submarines is a good first step".
* HappilyMarried: Oz and Bay's relationship seems to be a happy, healthy one, which is rather rare in the Buffyverse, where adversity and/or death are kind of the norm when it comes to dating.
* MeaningfulName: Her name means "joyful mother" in Mongolian and Tibetan.
* OurWerewolvesAreDifferent: She doesn't transform during the full moon, a trait she teaches to other werewolves, but still can if she really wants to. However, in direct contrast to other werewolves who do transform, she notes the full moon is when she and Oz are at their weakest.

----
* BadassNormal: Billy quickly learns how to fight off zompires and is in peak physical condition, despite just being a human.
* TheBigDamnKiss
* CoolLoser / HollywoodNerd
* EmpoweredBadassNormal: To a point. He still doesn't have enhanced abilities, but in Season 10 the First Slayer contacts him in a dream, despite the laws of magic under the previous Seed stating that she only does this with actual Slayers. Under the new rules, which are in the process of being written by people's shared beliefs (hence the new vampires being able to turn into bats and so on), an ally identifying as a Slayer is good enough.
* [[HippieParents Hippie Grandma]]
* NonActionGuy: Billy started out like this.
* OfficialCouple: With Devon, his "Watcher".
* RaisedByGrandparents: After coming out to his parents, he was kicked out of his home and now lives with his grandmother.

%%* ThreeAmigos: With Devon and Katie.

[[folder:Lavinia and Sophronia "Sophie" Fairweather]]

Giles's great aunts, the sisters of his paternal grandmother Edna (who appeared as a girl in the ''Tales of the Vampires'' comic). While Edna became a Watcher, Lavinia and Sophie used their knowledge of magic for shallow purposes like staying eternally young and beautiful. They are currently staying in Giles's estate with Faith and Angel. Lavinia (the brunette) is encouraging Angel to do whatever he has to do to resurrect Giles, and Sophie (the blonde) is pushing Faith to stop Angel if he goes too far.

* DealWithTheDevil: They made several to preserve their appearance.
* HiddenDepths: Behind their party hearty philosophy and use of magic for superficial things lies a belief that great powers with big ideas of changing the world, like Whistler, only end up getting mass numbers of ordinary people caught in the crossfire as collateral damage.
%%* HotWitch
* JerkWithAHeartOfGold: They are kind of selfish, horrible people, but they really ''do'' care about Giles and want to save him.
%%* ManipulativeBitch: Self-professed.
%%* OlderThanTheyLook
* SiblingYinYang: With Edna. Lavinia and Sophie have notable magical talent, but only use it for flighty pursuits, whereas their sister joined an organization dedicated to protecting humanity from the forces of darkness. They complain that Giles thought Edna was "so morally superior, just because she got wrinkly and died".
** Also, Lavinia and Sophie are pushing Angel and Faith from opposite directions, but this is actually part of a shared plan to get Rupert back if it's possible and prevent a disaster from happening if it turns out that it's not.
* VainSorceress: Their primary concern is to remain young and beautiful forever.
[[/folder]]

----
* ButchLesbian: Styles her hair short, and favors more masculine clothing on the job.

* MarriedToTheJob: Lake says this would sound badass but the simple truth is her long hours made her girlfriend pissed and she left.
* MissionControl: Serves as this for Theo's online united Initiative US Army fight against the supernatural.
* ShooOutTheNewGuy: Set up as Willow's new LoveInterest - and then quickly dumped just before the season ends.
* SuspiciouslySimilarSubstitute: A far more mature, more well-meaning, and likable Kennedy, with [[CompositeCharacter Riley Finn's]] military background.

[[/folder]]

[[folder: Clive]]

* ClosetKey: For Andrew.
* {{Fanboy}}: Appears to be one of Willow, and is super excited at the chance to work with her.
* NiceGuy: Even when Andrew pretty much ghosted him after their kiss Clive was still genuinely worried about him and only sounded like he was being catty via Jonathan's eavesdropping spell out of context.
* SharpDressedMan
* ShooOutTheNewGuy: Isn't seen for a long time after his and Andrew's kiss. It turns out Andrew essentially ghosted him due to Andrew not knowing what to do about the situation and Clive was genuinely hurt by it.
* WhatTheHellHero: Calls out Andrew on ghosting him and for trusting things he was shown saying about him out of context.
* YouAreBetterThanYouThinkYouAre: Gives this sort of speech to Andrew after calling him out.
[[/folder]]

[[folder:Aluwyn/Saga Vasuki]]

A mysterious demon with the upper body of a white-haired, green-skinned woman and lower body of a giant snake, who guides Willow during her continued magical training.
----
* AmbiguouslyEvil: While she is never seen doing anything evil, Aluywn did train crazy vampire witch Kumiko in addition to Willow.
%%* DarkIsNotEvil: Maybe.
* EvenTheGirlsWantHer: Buffy remarks on her attractiveness more than once.
* IHaveManyNames: Or at least two. "Saga Vasuki" appears to be more formal than "Aluwyn".

[[folder:Cordelia the Dragon]]

A dragon who appears as part of Wolfram & Hart's demonic army in the series finale.
----
* AmbiguousSituation: Some behind-the-scenes comments about the dragon at the end of "Not Fade Away" indicate he may be the same one who came through Glory's portal in "The Gift".
%%* TheDragon: For Wolfram & Hart, literally and figuratively.
* DueToTheDead: Named after the Cordelia that Angel knew. Albeit accidentally, because Angel kept talking to her while undergoing magical healing, and with no one else actually around, the dragon figured Angel was talking to him.
%%* {{Familiar}}: For Angel in ''After the Fall''.
* GoodAllAlong: ''After the Fall'' reveals he's a heroic dragon who was simply misled into serving Wolfram & Hart just as Angel was. He quickly becomes Angel's familiar.
%%* HeelFaceTurn: In ''After the Fall''.

[[/folder]]

[[folder:Betta George]]

A Splenden Beast, who resembles a large, floating Siamese fighting fish (''Betta splendens'') with telepathic powers.
----
* AudienceSurrogate: Writer Brian Lynch admitted that he deliberately wrote Betta George as this, because he on the surface was such an inherently ludicrous character that he could easily become TheScrappy:
-->"He's supposed to be the most normal character. Because I know that if you have a talking fish hanging out with everyone's favorite characters, people are going to not like him immediately. Because he could be [[Franchise/StarWars Jar Jar]] very easily. So I try to make him the nicest, most normal character, and the one who would react like the audience would react."
* CanonImmigrant: He originally appeared in some non-canon Spike comics before appearing in ''After the Fall'',
* [[ReasoningWithGod Reasoning With Cthulhu]]: [[spoiler:He stops Illyria from destroying all creation... by feeding her happy thoughts. Specifically, Wesley and Spike's memories of Fred]].
* FlyingSeafoodSpecial: He looks like a large fish "swimming" in the air.
* NiceGuy: He's really a laid-back and non-judgmental guy.
* NonActionGuy: Not much good in a fight, but his telepathic powers make him quite useful anyway -- he's one of the very few creatures who's actually capable of reading a vampire's mind.
* OddFriendship: With Spike. They're extremely different but get along really well.
* {{Telepathy}}: He can only communicate this way as his fishy mouth isn't built for speech.
[[/folder]]

[[folder:The Paradox Monster]]

* BigBad: For Season 11 of ''Angel''.
[[/folder]]
----

* CantBelieveISaidThat: While fighting the Japanese Vampire army, TheDragon Raidon is about to kill Buffy and drink from her, saying that he bets she tastes sweet. Satsu stakes him from behind, saying he has no idea, and then remarks she can't believe she said that out loud.

* TheBait: Served as it willingly to lure a vampire into a trap.

* MyGreatestFailure: Views hers as [[FailedASpotCheck not noticing a horde of zombies approaching the Slayer castle while on watch]], which led to several Slayers being killed.

* TrueLovesKiss: Used to wake Buffy after she was put in a mystical coma.

* NiceGuy: Even when Andrew pretty much ghosted him after their kiss Clive was still genuinely worried about him and only sounded like he was being catty via the eavesdropping spell out of context.

* EmpoweredBadassNormal: To a point. In Season 10 the First Slayer contacts him in a dream, despite the laws of magic under the previous Seed stating that she only does this with actual Slayers. Under the new rules, which are in the process of being written by people's shared beliefs (hence the new vampires being able to turn into bats and so on), an ally identifying as a Slayer is good enough.

* DueToTheDead: Naturally named after Cordelia that Angel knew in life before she died.

* {{Fanboy}}: Appears to be one of Willow's, and is super excited at the chance to work with her.
* NiceGuy: Even when Andrew pretty much ghosted him after their kiss Clive was still genuinely worried about him and only sounded like he was being catty out of context.

* [[Characters/BuffyTheVampireSlayerComic Dark Horse Comic Characters]]

* BadDreams: She is plagued by [[DreamingOfThingsToCome prophetic dreams]] and the memories of past Slayers and their deaths. One of the reasons she wants to kill Buffy is because Roden lied and told her the dreams would end when Buffy was dead.

* BadassGay: Very open that she is in love with Buffy, and gets to bed her. Twice. As one may expect, the other homosexual Slayer is a little miffed, but this is because [[TruthInTelevision Buffy is not gay and Satsu thinks maybe she can change her mind.]]

%%* BadassGay

* BadassGay: She's basically the type of character based on the likes of Maya from ''Film/ZeroDarkThirty,'' and it's established that Lake had a girlfriend, and is clearly into Willow.

%%* InspectorJavert

* EmpoweredBadassNormal: To a point. In one instance the First Slayer contacts him in a dream, despite the laws of magic under the previous Seed stating that she only does this with actual Slayers. Under the new rules, which are in the process of being written by people's shared beliefs (hence the new vampires being able to turn into bats and so on), an ally identifying as a Slayer is good enough.

* DeadpanSnarker: One trait she definitely shares with her husband. When Willow talks about giving up magic, Bay helpfully reminds her that "not teleporting submarines is a good first step".

* ShooOuttheNewGuy: Billy is given an entire story devoted to him in his introduction, joins the main cast for the remainder of the season, returns at the beginning of the next season and isn't seen since.

** AscendedBadassNormal: To a point. In one instance the First Slayer contacts him in a dream, despite the laws of magic under the previous Seed stating that she only does this with actual Slayers. Under the new rules, which are in the process of being written by people's shared beliefs (hence the new vampires being able to turn into bats and so on), an ally identifying as a Slayer is good enough.

Billy premiered in ''Billy The Vampire Slayer Part 1''. Billy is openly gay and is constantly being bullied for this. He lives with his BourgeoisBohemian grandmother after having been kicked out by his parents after coming out. His crush, "Cute" Devon saves him from a zompire and teaches him how to kill them, convincing Billy that he can be the next Slayer.

%%* BadassNormal: Billy quickly learns how to fight off zompires, despite just being a human.

* PoorlyDisguisedPilot: His introduction ''Billy The Vampire Slayer'' and the concept of male slayer heavily implies this.

* FunWithAcronyms: The Unified Supernatural Combatant Command. Willow points this out and Lake agrees to come up with something better when there are not more pressing issues.

* NiceGuy: Even when Andrew pretty much ghosted him after their kiss Clive was still genuinely worried about him and only ounded like he was being catty out of context.

* WhatTheHellHero: Calls out Andrew on ghosting him and for trusting things he was shown said about him out of context.

* HiddenDepths: Behind their party hearty philosophy and use of magic for superficial things lies a belief that great powers with big ideas of changing the world, like Whistler, only end up getting people caught in the crossfire.
