!In general

* ApeShallNeverKillApe: Zigzagged. After being chipped and rendered unable to harm humans in Season 4, Spike becomes ecstatic when he discovers that he still has the capacity to harm other demons and vampires, and is subsequently ostracized by Sunnydale's demon population for it, to the extent that a group of demons at Willy's bar beat him bloody and throw him out for it. Of course, given all the demon-on-demon violence we see throughout the series, and even more mentioned in backstories, it seems that the demon community's real problem with Spike's actions is less that he's killing other demons and more that he keeps helping [[HunterOfMonsters the Slayer]].
* FantasticRacism: Demons are shown to despise humans in a general whole. Some are outright Nazis where others are too polite to discuss it even among each other. There are a number of apocalyptic cults motivated to kill all humans out of religious dogma rather than racial supremacy.
* HalfHumanHybrid: Most modern day demon species have some degree of human DNA, the result of the Old Ones interbreeding with humans before their banishment.
* HumansAreUgly: Demons have a wide variety of appearances, usually horrific ones, but express disgust at the appearance of humans.
* OurDemonsAreDifferent: In the Buffyverse, demons are non-human creatures separate from the animal kingdom; the term is used to describe any creature who ''isn't'' a [[PhysicalGod god]], {{robot}}, unmodified human, or even a standard terrestrial animal.

->'''Played By:''' Creator/JamesCLeary

A friendly and mild-mannered demon who befriended the Scoobies in Season 6. Eventually hightailed it out of Sunnydale as the showdown with The First drew closer.
----
* BeautyEqualsGoodness: Completely Subverted. He's a deformed demon with bizarre skin and quite possibly the friendliest disposition in the series.
* BeleagueredAssistant: To Harmony.
* CharacterizationMarchesOn: He was kind of a jerk in his first appearance. On the other hand, it could just be that kittens are his preferred meal.
%%* CombatTentacles
* CrouchingMoronHiddenBadass: In ''Angel & Faith'' #6, he actually beheads a bunch of vampires with his tentacled face.
* DoggedNiceGuy: He's in love with Harmony.
* EmotionEater: His kind feed on emotions, specially embarrassment.
* HughMann: When Spike brings him to Buffy's birthday party; he doesn't even bother with a disguise. No one is suspicious until ''other'' supernatural happenings start going on.
* IfYoureSoEvilEatThisKitten: Played for RuleOfFunny -- Clem is first seen gambling over kittens so he can eat them.
* NiceGuy: Easily one of the friendliest characters in the series.
* NightmareFace: He showed this to the potentials in "Potential".
* NonActionGuy: Clem is very much not a fighter, never raises a hand against anyone, and skips town when The First gains ground in its fight with the Scoobies.
%%* RealMenWearPink
* ScrewThisImOuttaHere: He leaves Sunnydale along with most of its population as the power of the The First grows.

->'''Played By:''' Creator/KaliRocha

Anya's friend and fellow vengeance demon. Her specialty is answering wishes from children to punish bad parents and parental figures--which is bad when Dawn's issues reach boiling point.
----
* AffablyEvil: Acts quite sweet, calls Willow "lemon drop," etc. Genuinely friendly to Anya, and is in fact her only real friend in demon-dom.
* BitchInSheepsClothing: Related to the above, being a seemingly sweet-natured guidance counselor who is really a vengeance demon. Also, her insinuations against Xander to Anya.
* BlatantLies: Halfrek claims that vengeance demons are actually known as "justice demons" to justify her own actions. Neither Anya nor D'Hoffryn make any such claims, and Anya's reaction to it implies that the whole claim is just something Halfrek says to make herself feel righteous in her actions.
* DaddyIssues: According to Anya.
* EvilCounterpart: Has no empathy for her victims. She is essentially Anya before becoming human.
* FailedAttemptAtDrama: In "Older And Far Away," she tries to teleport away dramatically (twice) but her own spell keeps her in the house.
* FriendlyRival: To Anya.
* GameFace: She can appear human if she needs to, but she most commonly appears as a vengeance demon.
* HoistByTheirOwnPetard: In "Older and Far Away," she grants Dawn's wish that nobody would leave her by casting a spell so that anyone who entered Buffy's house would be trapped inside. She teleports in to [[EvilGloating gloat]] about how none of the Scoobies noticed Dawn's abandonment issues and they all deserve to be trapped for ignoring her, and then tries to dramatically teleport away... only to discover she's fallen victim to her own curse; much to her own annoyance, Halfrek is forced to break the spell in order to leave.
* PetTheDog: She seemed to genuinely care about Dawn's problems and thought she was doing the right thing.
%%* PoisonousFriend
* RedOniBlueOni: Halfrek is more easygoing and worldly compared to the workaholic and awkward Anya.
* RichBitch: As Cecily.
%%* TechnicolorDeath
* VillainTeleportation: One of the standard powers of a vengeance demon. Unfortunately for Halfrek, it doesn't work when she cast a spell on the Summers house to keep ''anyone'' from leaving.
* YouLookFamiliar: Kali Rocha played Cecily, the woman who spurned Spike when he was William the human poet. The inspiration for the famous "My heart expands, 'tis grown a bulge in it, inspired by your beauty, effulgent." Halfrek and Spike recognize each other, then embarrassedly deny knowing each other. WordOfGod confirms that Halfrek = Cecily. Although, when speaking to Anya, Halfrek mentioned "...that thing during the Crimean War. We laugh about it now." The Crimean War happened before Spike was turned, so either Cecily was already a vengeance demon in disguise or there's TimeTravel involved.

[[caption-width-right:250:''"You're the wolf all the time, and your human face is just your disguise."'']]
->'''Played By:''' Creator/PaigeMoss

A werewolf singer with an interest in Oz.
----
* ChekhovsGunman: Had bit parts in "Living Condition" and "Beer Bad" before making a full appearance.
* EnthrallingSiren: Oz is very clearly attracted to her when he sees her on stage; it seems like she's singing directly to him.
* EvilCounterpart: To Oz; both are werewolves in a band, but whereas Oz chooses to control his werewolf side with the help of his friends, Veruca gives into her dark side.
* FullyEmbracedFiend: Veruca enjoys being a werewolf, and embraces that side of herself.
* GlowingEyesOfDoom: When she transforms.
* HeldGaze: With Oz, in the Bronze.
* LadyInRed: While playing the part of EnthrallingSiren at the Bronze.
* LoveBeforeFirstSight: She claims this for Oz.
-->''"I've wanted you even before I ever saw you. I sensed you. Did you sense me?"''
* MonsterOfTheWeek: Joss Whedon's original plan was for the Willow/Oz/Veruca triangle to span most of Season 4 but she ended up the villain of only one episode. Nevertheless, her actions significantly alter the course of other characters' storylines.
* MurderTheHypotenuse: Tries to kill Willow so she can have Oz to herself and make him embrace being a werewolf.
* SmallRoleBigImpact: She only has bit parts in two episodes before becoming the MonsterOfTheWeek in "Wild at Heart," but her actions in that episode for Oz to leave Sunnydale to find himself.
* TheVamp: She uses her womanly wiles to seduce Oz away from Willow and to try to convince him to come around to her way of thinking. Her attractiveness--or rather, Oz's werewolf attraction to her--is her main weapon to achieve her goals.

[[folder:Norman Pfister]]
!!Norman Pfister
->'''Played By:''' Creator/KellyConnell

Norman Pfister is the name by which the second of the assassins of the Order of Taraka identified himself.
----
* AchillesHeel: Pfister can only be killed in his disassembled state, which Xander and Cordelia do by tricking him into disassembling and squirming right into a glue trap, whereupon they stomp him.
* BountyHunter: For the Order of Taraka.
* OffScreenTeleportation: One of his abilities due to the whole worm thing.
* TheyLookJustLikeEveryoneElse: Pfister looks like a typical, dorky salesman which belies his true nature as an evil demon.
* TheWormThatWalks: He's actually thousands of worms acting with some kind of HiveMind.

[[folder:The Judge]]
!!The Judge
[[quoteright:250:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/e3d138e96b8460181a27d79886207e49.jpg]]
[[caption-width-right:250:''"[[LevelGrinding My strength grows. And with every life I take, it will increase further.]]"'']]
->'''Played By:''' Creator/BrianThompson

-->''"It's a legend. Way before my time. Of a demon brought forth to rid the earth of the plague of humanity. To separate the righteous from the wicked... And burn the righteous down. They called him the Judge."''

An ancient demon sent to wipe out humanity. Drusilla and Spike assembled him and brought him to life.
----
* ChekhovsGunman: According to WordOfGod, the Judge was created specifically so the audience would know Angelus wasn't just [[HydePlaysJekyll Angel pretending to be evil]], in the scene where he can't burn the goodness out because there's none there.
* DeaderThanDead: If he is killed with any weapon forged, he can come back to life quite easily. But when Buffy blows him up with a rocket launcher, the Judge is gone for good.
* DePower: When he awakens, he's too weak to zap his victims like he once did. He has to physically touch them.
* EstablishingCharacterMoment: His first act upon resurrection is to disdainfully burn up Dalton just because the poor bastard reads.
* EvilSoundsDeep: Fitting a demon of his stature, the Judge has a very deep voice.
* FishOutOfTemporalWater: Having been dismembered and buried underground for hundreds of years, the Judge is quite unfamiliar with modern weapons and technology. When Buffy whips out a rocket launcher to blow him to smithereens, he has no idea what it is and just stands there like an idiot while Angelus and Drusilla [[ScrewThisImOuttaHere get the hell out of Dodge]].
* GoodHurtsEvil: The Judge dislikes being around human emotion, hence his desire to purge the world of it.
* LevelGrinding: He gets stronger with each life he takes.
* NighInvulnerability: He cannot be harmed by forged weapons, and he was only mildly inconvenienced when Angel made some scaffolding collapse on him. In addition, cutting or blasting him to pieces doesn't kill him, and his pieces will reattach if brought together.
* OneHitKill: He can nearly instantly incinerate any being with a trace of goodness within them. The only being shown to be immune is Angelus, who is pure evil.
* PersonOfMassDestruction: He showed himself capable of destroying multiple people at once, and he wasn't at full power. Giles states that at full power, he would have been able to incinerate humans by merely ''looking'' at them.
* UnskilledButStrong: So used to curb-stomping entire armies and never having to worry about dodging or fighting beyond "point and kill it", that when Buffy uses a rocket launcher, he doesn't even know to dodge.
[[/folder]]

[[folder:Acathla]]
!!Acathla
->'''Played By:''' N/A

A demon that was once sent to bring about the end of the world.
----
* DugTooDeep: Acathla's statue was uncovered in an archaeological dig.
* GreaterScopeVillain: Acathla has no ability to influence the world, around him, but he poses a serious threat in the Season 2 finale thanks to Angelus' aim of releasing him to swallow the world.
* RedEyesTakeWarning: Once Angelus starts awakening him, Acathla's eyes start glowing red.
* SealedEvilInACan: Trapped in a statue of himself. Angelus comes close to letting him out, but Buffy manages to ensure that he stays sealed away.
* TakenForGranite: Sealed in a statue long ago. Angelus' goal in "Becoming" is to undo this.

[[folder:Kathy]]
!!Kathy Newman
[[quoteright:250:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/9f4ae2ef934649d32ef95b2c97f7d9f0.jpg]]
->'''Played By:''' Creator/DagneyKerr

A 3000 year old Mok'tagar demon who disguised herself as a human so that she could attend UC Sunnydale.
----
* ApologeticAttacker: She somewhat halfheartedly apologizes for trying to steal Buffy's soul.
-->''"I'm sorry, OK? I left my dimension to go to college and they sent these guys after me."''
* FauxAffablyEvil: Kathy is smiling and pleasant, but it's little wonder she gets on Buffy's nerves even before she's revealed to be a demon.
* ImmortalImmaturity: She might be centuries old, but she's basically a teenage runaway. As she says to her father:
-->'''Kathy''': I'm 3000 years old! When are you going to stop treating me like I'm 900?
* LatexPerfection: Wears a convincing fake skin mask over her demon face. Buffy rips it off when they start to fight and is happy to finally have it confirmed that Kathy isn't human.
* LoudOfWar: In her war-of-the-roommates with Buffy, she uses Music/{{Cher}} to devastating effect.
* MonsterRoommate: Quite literally, to Buffy.
* PassiveAggressiveCombat: In the timeless manner of forced roommates across the globe, she engages in this with Buffy.
* ReallySevenHundredYearsOld: Seemingly a young woman, she's actually 3000. But of course, demons have a different level of maturity.
* YourSoulIsMine: She slowly steals portions of Buffy's soul over several nights; as her kind can recognize each other even in human disguise due to their [[TheSoulless lack of a soul]], she expected that her parents would take Buffy instead of her.

!!Olaf
[[quoteright:250:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/610d045beb39a287b55e1184478ec638.jpg]]
[[caption-width-right:250:''"YOU SEEM DETERMINED TO PUT AN END TO ALL MY FUN!"'']]
->'''Played By:''' Creator/AbrahamBenrubi

-->''"HA HA! PUNY RECEPTACLE! YOU DO WELL TO FLEE, TOWNSPEOPLE! I WILL PILLAGE YOUR LANDS AND DWELLINGS. I WILL BURN YOUR CROPS, AND MAKE MERRY SPORT WITH YOUR MORE ATTRACTIVE DAUGHTERS, MARK MY WORDS -- OOH! ALE! I SMELL DELICIOUS ALE!"''

A troll who was once human, a tenth-century Viking who apparently often hunted trolls and was the lover or husband of Aud; he cheated on her with a "load-bearing" bar matron, and Aud punished him by transforming him into a gigantic hammer-wielding troll.
----
* BaddieFlattery: To Xander, who he compliments...kind of.
-->''"YOU FIGHT WELL, ALTHOUGH YOU ARE A TINY MAN!"''
* BalefulPolymorph: When he was first turned into a troll, he was very unhappy about it. He's adjusted by the present day, but still holds a grudge against Anya for making him a troll in the first place.
* BigBeautifulWoman: He cheated on Aud/Anya with a barmaid who was 'load-bearing'.
* BloodKnight: He quite enjoys battle.
* BoisterousBruiser: Olaf is very expressive about his abilities, but he isn't lying about them.
* DropTheHammer: His most powerful weapon is his hammer.
* EatsBabies: It's never seen, but he does make reference to going out and finding some babies to eat.
* GiganticGulp: He drinks an entire keg in a single swig.
* InsaneTrollLogic: He's the TropeNamer.
* LargeHam: Olaf went to the Creator/BrianBlessed school of enunciation.
* NoIndoorVoice: OLAF SHOUTS ALL HIS LINES.
* SmallRoleBigImpact: He only appears in two episodes, but he's very important to Anya's backstory (her turning him into a troll is what convinced D'Hoffryn to recruit her as a vengeance demon), and his hammer ends up being critical in the Scoobies' final showdown with Glory.

[[folder:Buffybot]]
[[quoteright:350:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/buffy_tumblr_majx366y4n1rcujc9o2_1280.jpg]]
->'''Played By:''' Creator/SarahMichelleGellar

A SexBot created in Buffy's likeness by Warren at Spike's behest.
----
* BondOneLiner: She tries throughout "Bargaining," but never gets it quite right.
-->'''Buffybot''': That'll put marzipan on your pie plate, Bingo!
* ChekhovsGunman: It proves useful to the Scoobies in "The Gift" and "Bargaining," being reprogrammed by Willow to perform Slayer duties.
* ItIsPronouncedTroPay: Giles gripes that Spike hasn't programmed the Buffybot to say his name correctly, pronouncing it "Guy-els."
* ReplacementGoldfish: Serves as this in "Bargaining." Dawn curls up in bed next to it as it recharges. Giles finds himself teaching the bot Eastern martial arts philosophy until Anya calls him on it. Averted with Spike who refuses even to look at it, and the Scoobies all agree that it could never replace the real Buffy.
* RetargetedLust: The entire reason Spike had it created; if he couldn't have the real Buffy, he'd have the next best thing.
* RidiculouslyHumanRobots: Not at first, since Spike only intended to use it for sex, but after Willow reprograms and upgrades her, she behaves much more human (though not perfectly). She even seems to experience a moment of genuine shock when she sees the real resurrected Buffy just before she's destroyed.
* RobotMe: A robotic duplicate of Buffy.
* SexBot: Its entire purpose is to be this to Spike.
* SpotTheImposter: Despite the Buffybot's strange behavior, the Scoobies completely fail to notice that it's actually a robot, much to the real Buffy's annoyance. Especially jarring, since [[IdiotBall they were able to realize right away that April was a robot]].
* StatOVision: The Buffybot sees like this, with information about Buffy's friends displayed on screen when they're in its line of sight. Having been programmed by Warren to specifications given by Spike however, the information is extremely basic or displays a laughably 2D idea of the characters. For instance, Willow's screen reads: "Best Friend. Gay (1999–Present). Witch. Good with computers." Also displayed on screen are the Buffybot's two primary objectives in life, "Locate Spike" and "Make Spike Happy." The latter has a drop-down menu of files with titles like "kissing" and "position-1" and so on.
* SuperPoweredRobotMeterMaids: Justified; Spike [[CombatSadomasochist gets off on fighting the Slayer as much as having sex with her]], so Buffy's strength and combat abilities are part of the package.
* WhatMeasureIsANonHuman: In contrast to her treatment of April, Buffy is repulsed by the existence of the Buffybot and [[ItIsDehumanizing outright refers to it as a "thing" and an "it".]]

[[folder:Razor]]
!!Razor
->'''Played By:''' Creator/FrancRoss

The leader of the Hellions demon biker gang that briefly took over Sunnydale when they discovered that the Slayer was dead.
----
* AllBikersAreHellsAngels: Razor and his gang are clearly modeled after Hell's Angels.
* ArcVillain: Of the Season 6 two-parter dealing with Buffy's resurrection.
* BadassBiker: The guy rips off a vampire's head and crushes it into dust with zero effort.
* CharacterDeath: [[ViolentlyProtectiveGirlfriend Tara]] axes him in the back for threatening Willow.
* FantasticRacism: Demons typically don't get along swimmingly with vampires either, but Razor takes it to a new level when an annoying vampire tries to join his gang by ripping his head off mid-sentence with a snappy one-liner.
-->'''Vampire:''' Hey look, I know you guys don't usually let vampires join the gang, And I got the whole sunlight issue. But I was thinking, you know, as thanks for the 4-1-1, you could let me go--
-->'''Razor:''' ''[crushes his head]'' I'll think it over.
* KilledMidSentence: By Tara, with an axe! BewareTheNiceOnes indeed.
-->''"So, witch, got a little power after all. Well, let's see what tricks you can manage while I choke the life outta—"''
* NewEraSpeech: He gives one to his gang after they invade Sunnydale.
-->'''Razor:''' This here is a momentous occasion, the beginning of a new era. Now, no question, the open backroads and highways have been good to us. But we've got ourselves a juicy little burg here, just ripe for the picking. And I ain't in no hurry to leave it, you? (demons all yell "NO!") So I figure, what better way to kick off our ... semi-settling-down, than with a little christening? A symbolic act commemorating the new order around here ... and ridding ourselves of any not-so-pleasant reminders of the old.
* RapeIsASpecialKindOfEvil: Razor threatens the Scooby girls with rape, one of few demons to do so. Most of them are into decent, old-fashioned murder. Razor is just that extra bit creepier.
-->''"Now let me tell you something, children. We're not gonna fight you. We're just gonna hold you down and enjoy ourselves for a few hours. You might even live through it. Except that certain of my boys got some...anatomical incompatibilities that, uh, tend to tear up little girls."''
* WolverineClaws: He appears to have placed metallic extensions on his regular claws.

!Glory's Minions

[[folder:The Minions]]
!!Jinx, Murk, Dreg & Gronx
->'''Played By:''' Creator/TroyBlendell, Creator/ToddDuffey, Creator/KevinWeisman & Creator/LilyKnight

Glory's Minions, commonly known simply as Minions and at one time called "Scabby Boys", were a species of demon native to Glorificus' home dimension and who worshiped her. In spite of all of their blind loyalty to her, Glory largely did not appreciate their help, and they often received a lot of abuse (both verbal and physical) from her, either out of their failures or simply during Glory's temper tantrums.
----
* ButtMonkey: Every single one of them lives in service to Glory, BadBoss extraordinaire. As such, they are routinely abused in a number of ways by both Glory and Glory's enemies. Glory herself considers them fodder that wait on hand and foot for her. They tend to die quickly, and are just as likely to meet their end at Glory's hand as their enemies. Independently of Glory (sort of), Jinx ends up being beaten up and later stabbed by Ben.
* DangerTakesABackseat: Dreg does this with Ben, but he's really no danger to him at all for a variety of reasons.
* TheLastOfTheseIsNotLikeTheOthers: The high priest, who appears at the end of the season, is much less of a sycophant than Glory's other minions.
* TheLeader: Jinx holds some position of leadership among Glory's minions. We later see a High Priest who appears briefly.
* TheNicknamer: They frequently address Glory with grovelling titles of their own invention, like "the Glorious One", "Her Splendiferousness," "Her Sparkling Luminescence", "[[HotGod Oh Sweaty-Naughty-Feelings-Causing One]]", "Most beauteous and supremely magnificent one", "Most tingly and wonderful Glorificus", "Shiny special one", "Your terrifically smooth one", "Most silky and effervescent Glorificus", "Your most fresh and clean-ness, it's just a matter of time", "Your creamy coolness", "Most glamorous yet tasteful one", "glittering, glistening Glorificus" and "Your new and improved-ness" among others.
* ProfessionalButtKisser: Every other word out of their mouths is a word of hopelessly devoted praise directed toward Glory.
* UndyingLoyalty: Every single one of them is slavishly devoted to their beloved Glorificus.
* TheSmurfettePrinciple: Aside from Gronx, the rest of Glory's minions (that are seen) seem to be exclusively male.
* WithAllDueRespect: When Gronx speaks to Ben, although she adds "...and a fear of sharp objects".

[[caption-width-right:250:''"Hey kid. Wanna see a trick?"'']]
->'''Played By:''' Creator/JoelGrey

-->''"Shallow cuts. Shallow... cuts. Let the blood... flow... free."''

An eccentric old man who is actually a reptilian demon with vast knowledge of the dark arts.
----
* AffablyEvil: Due in no small part to being played by Joel Grey, Doc comes across as an eccentric, grandfatherly type. Even when he's slicing up a young girl and tossing people off a tower, he's unfailingly polite.
* BadassBoast: When Spike makes one, Doc returns with one of his own.
-->'''Spike:''' This won't take long.
-->'''Doc:''' No, I don't imagine it will.
* BlackEyesOfEvil: His eyes terrifyingly turn black when Dawn shakes his hand.
* CurbStompBattle: In his fight with Spike on the tower, who he runs circles around with ease before tossing him off the tower. He winds up on the receiving end from Buffy, who casually pushes him off the tower without breaking stride.
* DisneyVillainDeath: Invoked: Buffy pushes him off the tower but we never see him land.
* TheDragon: He turns up as a last-minute dragon for Glory.
* DressedToKill: Doc turns up in his Sunday best for Glory's big day.
* DroppedABridgeOnHim: More like Dropped ''From'' A Bridge. Buffy simply pushes him from Glory's tower structure.
* EvilCannotComprehendGood: Doc has no idea why Spike gives a damn about saving Dawn.
-->'''Doc:''' I don't smell a soul anywhere on you. Why do you even care?
-->'''Spike:''' I made a promise to a lady.
* EvilOldFolks: His appearance is that of an old man.
%%%* HumanoidAbomination: His true identity.
* ObfuscatingDisability: He plays the part of a slow moving old man. He turns out to be quite agile and strong.
* OverlyLongTongue: Has an extendable tongue he employs as an offensive weapon.
* NeverFoundTheBody: After being thrown off by Buffy we don't see him again. Thus we don't know if impact from the fall was enough to kill him or if he simply fled.
* NotQuiteDead: Spike seemingly kills him in "The Weight of the World", but he wakes up shortly afterward and turns up later in "the Gift" none the worse for wear.

!!Spawn of Sobek

----
* ChainPain: How Buffy tries to kill it.
* EyeAwaken: When Buffy stops strangling it, believing it's dead.
* NoHoldsBarredBeatdown: Buffy winds up beating the damn thing to death.
* PlayingPossum: Showing surprising cleverness for a giant snake-demon, it pretends to be dead while Buffy is choking it with a big chain.
* RedEyesTakeWarning: When it identifies the Key, it's eyes glow red.
* SnakePeople: Although the only human thing about it is it's arms, which snakes... y'know, don't tend to have.
* SuperWindowJump: It just smashes it's way into the Magic Box via window.

!One-shot Demons and Monsters

[[folder:She-Mantis]]
!!The She-Mantis A.K.A. Ms. Natalie French
->'''Portrayed By:''' Creator/MusettaVander
->'''Appears In''': "[[Recap/BuffyTheVampireSlayerS1E4TeachersPet Teacher's Pet]]"

A sentient giant female praying mantis. She assumed the appearance of a beautiful woman to seduce young virgin men to reproduce and kill them.
----
* AttemptedRape: She tries to mate with a very unwilling Xander and Blayne.
* ArtisticLicenceBiology: It's something of an urban myth that Mantises eat the heads of their mates; it's seen in the lab, but not in the wild. She also makes a sound like a cicada, presumably for a more horrifying effect.
* BigCreepyCrawlies: The clue is very much in the name; she's a giant praying mantis.
* ConceiveAndKill: Her modus operandi.
* ExorcistHead: She can rotate her head 180 degrees. It's described accurately by Buffy as a "full-on Exorcist twist".
* HorrifyingTheHorror: A vampire is about to attack her when it realises she isn't human and runs for its life. Buffy witnesses this, and it's what tips her off that something isn't right about her.
* HotForTeacher: Every boy at the school (and Giles) is enchanted with her.
* ImAHumanitarian: As would be expected of a giant praying mantis, she eats people.
* LivingAphrodisiac: Due to the pheromones she secretes. Being seriously hot is probably a bonus, though.

-->'''Xander:''' It's the most beautiful chest... dress I've ever seen.
* LogicalWeakness: The She-Mantis may be a demon, but it's still a bug. The Scoobies are able to ward it off using cans of bug spray, and Buffy plays recorded bat sonar to paralyze it, since bats pray on mantises and hearing their sonar makes their nervous system "go to hell."

* SlippingAMickey: She drugs her victims to get them in her cage.

An undead Incan princess who was accidentally released.
----
* AffablyEvil: Ampata is willing to kill, but in her view it's necessary and she's otherwise a charming young woman who's easy to like. She has no taste for murder, it's just the only way she can survive.
* AliensSpeakingEnglish: She learned the language after all the years that she was toured all over the country.
* AndIMustScream: She was imprisoned in her own corpse.
* AntiVillain: Ampata died young, an unfair and innocent victim of her people's culture. Even when resurrected, all she wants is to live the life that was taken from her. She's not sadistic or cruel, just desperate to keep on living even at the cost of the lives of others.
-->'''Guardian:''' You are already dead. For 500 years.
-->'''Ampata:''' But it was not fair. I was innocent.
-->'''Guardian:''' The people you kill now ,so that you may live? ''They'' are innocent.
* TheChosenOne: In her time, she was chosen as a sacrifice to ward off the powers of evil.
* DeadPersonImpersonation: "Ampata" was the foreign exchange student that was supposed to stay with Buffy for two weeks.
* EvilCounterpart: To Buffy. They both yearn for normality, but fate and circumstance put a stop to their hopes. Admittedly, Ampata got a pretty raw deal in contrast to Buffy.
* IJustWantToBeNormal: To a terrifying extent.
* ItSucksToBeTheChosenOne: For Ampata, it really does.
-->'''Ampata:''' She was 16, like us. She was offered as a sacrifice and went to her death. Who knows what she had to give up to fulfil her duty to others? What chance at love?
* KissOfDeath: How she drains life from her victims.
* MonsterOfTheWeek: She's the titular "Inca Mummy Girl" of the episode.
* NecessarilyEvil: Ampata has no higher goal or evil plan, she just wants to live and have a normal life. Unfortunately, she needs to drain LifeEnergy from other people. It's not something she particularly relishes.
* SealedEvilInACan: She was imprisoned within her own corpse for thousands of years.
* SeductiveMummy
* TragicVillain: She didn't end up a life-draining mummy by choice, and at heart, all she wants is a normal life, something that she ends up being denied at every turn.
* WoobieDestroyerOfWorlds: Sure, she kills with a KissOfDeath and is certainly dangerous, but it's hard not to feel sorry for her considering her tragic origins. She was just a girl not unlike Buffy who was chosen against her will to endure a horrible fate for centuries, given no chance at a normal life.

----
* HumanSacrifice: Machida demands girls to eat, which the frat boys happily give him in exchange for future wealth and riches.
* MonsterOfTheAesop: Can be seen as a metaphor for DateRape and the dark underside of frat culture. A snake is kind of Freudian.
* MonsterOfTheWeek: He's the titular "Reptile Boy" of his episode.
* NoOntologicalInertia: After he's killed by Buffy, all of the good luck and fortune he'd blessed the former members of the frat instantly vanishes and they become destitute.

* BigBadDuumvirate: Forms one with Whistler for ''Angel & Faith''.
* BodyHorror: The longer it stays in a body, the more deformed and hideous they become.
* BodySurf: It sails from body to body in order to survive.
* DemonicPossession: It can inhabit any unconscious or dead body in his vicinity. [[spoiler:And after it manifests in its true form in ''Angel & Faith'', this '''includes''' vampires like Angel and Spike]].
* EvilMakesYouMonstrous: If you're possessed by Eyghon, your features gradually become more demonic.
* EvilSoundsDeep: No matter who it's possessing, it can speak with a very deep voice.
* EldritchAbomination: It's a powerful and ancient demonic being that can raise the dead and has a true form that is seriously ''wrong.''
* FauxAffablyEvil: Highlighted in ''Angel & Faith'', where it can put on a façade of civility just so it can laugh in its victims' faces and tear them down.
* GlowingEyesOfDoom: One of the symptoms of possession by Eyghon.
* GottaKillEmAll: Its ultimate goal is to kill everyone who initially summoned it.
* ImplacableMan: Eyghon ''can'' be stopped, but it's far from easy. Even killing its host body doesn't put an end to it, as it just jumps to the next one.
* LogicalWeakness: It can't possess the undead bodies of vampires since they ''already'' contain a demon, and so the two demons will vie for control until Eyghon is expelled.
* ManipulativeBastard: As highlighted in ''Angel & Faith''. It's even formed a "resurrection scam" where it possesses and reanimates corpses, and then tricks their friends into thinking that they've actually come BackFromTheDead.
* MarkOfTheBeast: Handily known as "The Mark of Eyghon".
* MonsterOfTheWeek: Initially, but it becomes much more important in ''Angel & Faith''.
* OhCrap: It starts to freak out when [[spoiler:it learns that ''Giles'' is also within Angel's body, as is Angel (the soul) and Angelus (the demon)]].
* PossessingADeadBody: It can do this, but the corpse will eventually break down.
* ShinyNewAustralia: Whistler was able to win its aid by promising him ownership of Europe in the new "post-magic" world.
* {{Troll}}: As evidenced by its attempt to seduce Giles while possessing Jenny, it just loves to screw with people for its own amusement.
* YourSoulIsMine: His followers' souls go to him after they die. [[spoiler: This is why Angel is convinced he can revive Giles, since his soul is tied to Eyghon, who is on Earth]].

->'''Portrayed By:''' Creator/JakePatellis
!!!Sean Dwyer
->'''Portrayed By:''' Creator/ShaneWest
->'''Appear In''': "[[Recap/BuffyTheVampireSlayerS2E20GoFish Go Fish]]"

A race of half-human/half-fish creatures. The monsters were the result of steroids administered by Coach Carl Marin. He managed to find the solution to old Soviet Experiments on the DNA of fish such as tarpon and mako shark to improve the performance of Olympic swimmers. Even though the formula was successful on the Sunnydale High Swim Team, extended use eventually led to the boys transforming into large, humanoid fish-like monsters. When transforming, the person's skin would completely shed off, leaving a mindless beast with a taste for human flesh and the capability of breathing both underwater and on land.
----
* AttemptedRape: Cameron tries to get too frisky with Buffy, only for her to break his nose. Later, the transformed members of the team resort to their animal instincts with Buffy. It doesn't go any better for them than it did for a pre-transformed Cameron.
* BodyHorror: Their transformation is so gruesome that the Scoobies initially assume that they've been brutally attacked and killed. In reality, they're transforming in a way that involves their skin shedding in an extremely painful way.
* BullyingADragon: It was a terrifically bad idea for Cameron to try his aggressive schtick with Buffy. She effortlessly breaks his nose off his own steering wheel.
* FaceMonsterTurn: Their transformation reduces them to mindless beasts without an ounce of the person they were. Considering they weren't great people to begin with, they actually become a little more sympathetic post-transformation. At least their deadly actions can be excused by them just being animals.
* FishPeople: Let's just say they would not look out of place at [[Literature/TheShadowOverInnsmouth ol' Innsmouth.]]
* ImAHumanitarian: After transforming fully into Gill Monsters, they develop a taste for human flesh.
* JerkJock: '''All of them.''' Each one is nasty piece of work; stuck-up, bullying, entitled and even mildly sadistic. Special points go to Cameron, for being a self-absorbed budding rapist.
* MonsterOfTheWeek: For "Go Fish".
* SlutShaming: Cameron blames Buffy for his borderline AttemptedRape, saying she was 'leading him on'.
* SovietSuperscience: Their origins can be traced back to old Soviet experiments which were somehow uncovered by Coach Marin. He and Nurse Greenleigh cracked the formula, although they're likely less responsible than the Hellmouth's mystical influence.
* TooSpicyForYogSothoth: When Angelus tries to sire Gage, he's surprised and repulsed by the taste and abandons his recruitment. This is pre-transformation.

The leader of the a group of enslavers using a Los Angeles shelter called Family Home.
----
* BadHabits: Ken runs a Red Cross-esque quasi-religious homeless shelter called "Family Home"; in reality, it's a front for a demonic workhouse.
* BadSamaritan: Ken "helps" the homeless and runaway kids by sending them to a Hell dimension where time runs much faster than it does on Earth. There, they are worked as slaves until they die of old age.
* BeCarefulWhatYouWishFor: A sadistic lesson he imparts to Buffy and Anne/Lily.
-->'''Buffy:''' You didn't choose me.
-->'''Ken:''' No. But I know you, Anne. So afraid. So pathetically determined to run away from whatever it is you used to be. To disappear. Congratulations. You got your wish.
* BitchInSheepsClothing: Ken initially appears to be a sweet, thoughtful, mildly bumbling fellow who's genuinely trying to help out the young runaways of Los Angeles. The truth is that he's a sadistic demonic slave-driver who lures vulnerable young people to his shelter, traps them in his world and works them until they're too old before letting them out to wander the streets of L.A.
* BreakingSpeech: After capturing Buffy and Anne/Lily, he turns up at their cell to go a bit of gloating. Buffy has seen worse, but Anne/Lily takes it hard.
-->''"You see, Lily, you'll die of old age before anyone wonders where you went. Not that anyone will. That's why we chose you."''
* CrashIntoHello: How he first meets Buffy.
* {{Determinator}}: Give the asshole credit; falling from a massive height that should have killed him doesn't slow him as much as it should, and even with a gate crushing his legs he continues to rant like the psychotic cock-head he is.
* FauxAffablyEvil: In his human persona he's rather sweet and caring, but once he drops his cover, Ken shows himself for the sadistic monster he truly is.
* FluffyTheTerrible: The evil demonic slave-master with blood-red eyes is... named Ken. Presumably not his real name.
* GoryDiscretionShot: Buffy pummels his head into pudding off-screen.
* IWillPunishYourFriendForYourFailure: Ken attempts this, threatening to kill Anne/Lily as punishment for Buffy's rebellion. It doesn't work.

* MadeOfIron: Anne/Lily pushes him from a very tall height, injuring him severely but it doesn't kill him.
* MuggingTheMonster: Ken thought he'd just grabbed one more runaway that nobody will miss or look for. He actually grabbed Buffy, and she brings his whole wretched world down around him.
* ShutUpHannibal: Buffy shuts up his angry accusations with a big ol' stick to the head.
* VillainousBreakdown: When Buffy incites rebellion, Ken gets very unhinged very quickly, watching in disbelief and ranting helplessly.

* DomesticAbuser: To his girlfriend Debbie. It's a pretty classic depiction save for the monster thing; he gets angry, strikes her, shows regret and begs for forgiveness while blaming her for making him angry in the first place.
* EmpoweredBadassNormal: A tough jock even before getting his powers.
* GameFace: His appearance post-transformation is all bulging veins, caveman brow and sharp claws.
* GoneHorriblyRight: Pete started the formulas to become stronger and manlier. Unfortunately, it worked a little too well.

A group of demons said to originate from fairytales. They roamed from town to town, seeking out seven human hearts they required to stay alive. They were served by a group of demonic footmen dressed in straight jackets who did all the fighting and muscle-work for them.
----
* AndIMustScream: The way their victims die. [[spoiler: The Footmen hold them down while the Gentlemen cut out their hearts ''while they're still alive''. If that weren't bad enough, they ''can't'' scream at all due to having no voice but they still try.]]
* BaldOfEvil: They're all entirely bald.

A robot created by Warren Mears to be his girlfriend and inadvertently the inspiration for the Buffybot.
----
* AIIsACrapshoot: PlayedWith. While she definitely goes beyond Warren's expectations and does quite a bit of damage, she doesn't really go beyond the programming. Warren just didn't really think things through when he programmed her and subsequently abandoned her.
* AntiVillain: April doesn't want to hurt anyone, and even when she does, the fault is due to Warren's short-sighted programming, not any choice on April's part.
* BearHug: She gives a downright dangerous one to Katrina.
* BerserkButton: Don't even imply that you're trying to get between her and Warren. Spike got himself tossed through a window, Katrina was knocked unconscious, and Buffy was nearly strangled to death.
* CutTheJuice: Buffy doesn't bring April down; her batteries just run out.
* DestinationDefenestration: When Spike tries to hit on her [[OperationJealousy to make Buffy jealous]], April's immediate response is to bodily toss him out a window.
* HughMann: Her mannerisms are so stilted and bizarre, along with her SuperStrength, that the Scoobies quickly deduce that she's a robot.
* ImprovisedWeapon: Not that she needs it, but she breaks off a part of a playground see-saw to go to town on Buffy with.
* KickTheSonOfABitch: How the Scoobies view her throwing Spike out the window. Buffy freely admits that she wouldn't give up the memory of her doing so for anything.
* LetThemDieHappy: Buffy sits with April as her batteries run out, calmly lying to her that Warren will come back for her.
* NotSoHarmlessVillain: Discussed; the Scoobies don't initially see April as much of a threat, since she's just looking for her boyfriend, and [[KickTheSonOfABitch actually approve of her tossing Spike out the window]]. When Buffy talks with Warren about April to confirm it, that's when it hits her that April ''is'' a threat:
-->'''Buffy''': Warren, this is important. Is she dangerous?\\
'''Warren''': She's only programmed to be in love.\\
'''Buffy''': [[{{Yandere}} Then she's dangerous.]]
* RidiculouslyHumanRobots: To the untrained eye she's just an odd-mannered human girl, but the Scoobies work out what she is very quickly.
* SexBot: Warren made her, uh, fully functional.
* SuperPoweredRobotMeterMaids: Despite just being created to be a SexBot, April has SuperStrength, a combat mode, and only fails to defeat Buffy because [[CutTheJuice her batteries run down]].
* ThisCannotBe: She is deeply confused, hurt and in denial to find Warren left her for Katrina.
* WhatMeasureIsANonHuman: Buffy certainly feels sympathy for her. Warren's treatment of April serves as foreshadowing for how he views women in general.

* NoNameGiven: It's subtle, but the elusiveness of his name crops up more than once. The Scoobies do eventually find information on him, but no name, and he doesn't give a name when Buffy asks him. "Sweet" is AllThereInTheScript, and probably not his real name if he's been around since Roman times.

* EvilIsHammy: Aside from the endless VisualPun, Teeth is also quite a ham, acting like a 50s Chicago gangster.
* EvilOverlord: Despite not being too powerful in terms of demon strength, Teeth manages to snag a position as one of the Demon Lords of Los Angeles when he relocates.

* CursedWithAwesome: Considering that many of Anya's old curses involve various types of painful death (like auto-cannibalism) he got away lightly by being transformed into a powerful demon capable of shape-shifting.
* CreateYourOwnVillain: Anya cursed him while she was still a vengeance demon, leading to him being transformed into a demon and tortured in a hell dimension. He returns to ruin her chances at happiness and maybe kill her.
* DisproportionateRetribution: So he slept around and cheated on his girlfriends, which is not a nice thing to do. It didn't warrant him getting turned into a demon and tortured in a hell dimension, though.
