I'm the thing that monsters have nightmares about.
~ Buffy Summers

Summary

Buffy Anne Summers[1][2] was a Slayer activated in the late 20th century. Born on January 19, 1981,[3][4] she was called to be the Slayer in 1996 at fifteen years old.[5][6] Buffy was originally living in Los Angeles, but, due to an incident involving a gang of vampires at Hemery High School,[7] she moved to Sunnydale with her mother,[1] where she acted as guardian of the Hellmouth for seven years before the town's destruction in mid-2003.[8]

Initially a reluctant hero who constantly wished for nothing more than a normal life,[1] Buffy eventually grew to embrace her destiny.[9] She was unique as a Slayer in many ways;[10] she refused to sacrifice her ordinary life for her supernatural destiny,[11] often operated as part of a team with her friends the Scooby Gang,[12] and had romantic relationships with the notorious vampires Angel[13] and Spike.[14]

Buffy was one of the longest-lived Slayers, having returned from death twice[9][15] and coexisted with the two next Slayers,[16][17] an act that disrupted the magic surrounding the traditional line.[18] During the war with the First Evil, Buffy enacted a plan to activate multiple Potential Slayers in the world, abolishing the traditional line of Chosen Ones, and closing the Hellmouth.[8] She then dedicated to gathering and training the ever-growing number of Slayers with the Slayer Organization, who became persecuted themselves[19] when the supernatural became public knowledge.[20]

After rejecting her prophecized place in the dimension of Twilight,[21] a reward for shifting the balance of power in the world,[22] Buffy prevented it from replacing and destroying the Earth when she brought about the end of magic.[23] She then established herself in San Francisco, where she continued her Slayer duties.[24] Buffy eventually restored magic on Earth,[25] took responsibility for its new rules with the Vampyr book, became the leader of a new Magic Council,[26] and exposed a government conspiracy to criminalize supernatural beings.[27] Ultimately, Buffy was the Slayer who defined the battle of the Reckoning, which allowed Slayers to exist and work towards a better future, changing the course of history up to the 23rd century.[28]

She said that her regeneration ability is as fast as angel), Martial Arts and Weapon Mastery (As with every Slayer, Buffy possessed a natural proficiency with virtually all forms of weaponry and unarmed combat styles, and in addition to this she had years of combat training to hone in her skills using various martial arts (particularly jiu jitsu and aikido). With zero training and effort, Buffy effectively uses official weapon maneuvers and styles to defeat Giles on the first day of quarter staff training. Trained for years by Giles. She was trained by Angel, a 200+ year old vampire. She uses a hybrid combat form. She has thousands of years of slayer combat experience, martial arts skill and knowledge), Marksmanship (She shot a fly with a needle she threw from her mouth), Accelerated Development (When a potential slayer becomes a slayer, she has the combat experience, knowledge, and martial arts mastery of all previous slayers. Buffy soon becomes strong enough to defeat the characters she was beaten up badly), Enhanced Senses (Hears somebody scream from a building away, Locates an invisible attacker, She senses the trio following her, Buffy beats them easily when Buffy and The Trio are invisible, Buffy felt the three invisible demons silently enter the room and turned just in time to thwart her attack), Extrasensory Perception (Slayers can sense the vampires around them if they focus), Healing (Slayer blood can cure Killer of the Dead poison), Instinctive Action (Slayers have instincts that help them. Each new Slayer subconsciously inherits the memories and skill of her predecessors, giving them an instinctual ability to fight before even being called), Acrobatics (Buffy often uses acrobatics in her fights), Attack Reflection with Scythe (The scythe can reflect attacks, as seen here and here), Precognition (Has premonitions)

  • Stake: Any pointy wooden object capable of slaying a vampire if penetrated the creature's heart.[42]
    • Mister Pointy: The stake Kendra Young gave Buffy Summers.[43]
  • Cross: An artifact effective as a weapon against vampires.[12] Like the Holy Bible[44] and holy water,[12] crosses burned vampires on contact, producing smoke[45][46][47][48][49][50][51] and potentially growing flames.[52] Thus, they were employed to ward off vampires with moderate success;[53] the mere sight of a cross made them fear it[39][54] and could cause a vampire to recoil.[55][47][56][57][58]
    Some exorcism rituals also required the use of a cross.[59]
    • Buffy Summers' Cross Necklace: Buffy Summers owned a cross necklace gifted by Angel when the two first met.[60]
    • Wish Cross
  • Holy Water: Water that had been sanctified by a religious figure.[61] As a blessed object, it was capable of causing damage to vampires.[62]
  • Brass Knuckles
  • Hammer
  • Nnnrf: It was how Buffy Summers referred to a dagger she used to kill an unidentified demon that attacked her and her friends in a park. The demon was choking Buffy when she asked Willow Rosenberg for the knife and so she pronounced it "Nnnrf".[63] She kept the dagger in her weapons bag.[47]
  • Axe
  • Hand Crossbow
  • mʔ/Scythe: Often symbolically referred to as the Scythe, was an ancient weapon designed for the Slayer,[64] embodying their mystical essence.[8] Although the Slayer of any time had rights over it, Sineya,[64] Buffy Summers,[8] and Melaka Fray[65] had been the only known owners of the weapon.
Optional Equipment:
  • Rocket Launcher
  • Blessed Sword: An unidentified sword was blessed by the virtuous knight and used to first slay the demon Acathla.[43]
  • Faith Lehane's Knife: Faith Lehane owned a knife given to her by Richard Wilkins in 1999.[66]

  • Com-cam: Short for communications camera, was a device of which the Initiative had a prototype. It featured a camera, a microphone, and a heart rate monitor remotely transmitted.[68]
  • Olaf the Trollgod's Enchanted Hammer: A weapon brandished by Olaf.[69][70]
  • Knights of Byzantium Sword: A type of sword was one of the weapons wielded by the Knights of Byzantium.[71][72][73]
  • Dagger of Lex: One of the many artifacts available for purchase at the Magic Box.[74] It was eventually used to open the Seal of Danzalthar by Andrew Wells.[75][76]
  • Bringers' Knife: The Harbingers of Death carried knifes resembling jambiya daggers with curved blades and ornate, jewel-encrusted handles.[77][78][79] They were the Bringer's primary weapon to hunt Potential Slayers in the First Evil's crusade against the Slayer line.[80][48][77]
  • Taser Blaster: The most common weapons employed by agents of the Initiative.
  • Ray Gun: A firearm that fired bolts of energy as opposed to conventional bullets. This weapon was available in Haddyn in the 23rd century, varying in sizes, colors, and formats.
  • Staff

Intelligence: At least Above Average normally, Genius in combat (Although she was sometimes considered a dumb blonde by others, Buffy frequently showed herself to be quite intelligent, possessing strong leadership skills and having a natural flair for tactical planning. Prominent examples of Buffy's intelligence included her near-perfect S.A.T. score, her defeat of Zachary Kralik by using his dependency on anti-psychotic medication against him, her quick deduction of the Buffybot's true nature, her rapid deduction of Riley's affiliation to the Initiative based on weeks of evidence, and her immediate realization of Katrina Silber's true murderer upon hearing her name at the police station, leading an army with supernatural powers. As with every Slayer, Buffy possessed a natural proficiency with virtually all forms of weaponry and unarmed combat styles, and in addition to this she had years of combat training to hone in her skills using various martial arts (particularly jiu jitsu and aikido). With zero training and effort, Buffy effectively uses official weapon maneuvers and styles to defeat Giles on the first day of quarter staff training. Trained for years by Giles. She was trained by Angel, a 200+ year old vampire. She uses a hybrid combat form. She has thousands of years of slayer combat experience, martial arts mastery and knowledge)

Weaknesses: Overconfident, has both a superiority complex and an inferiority complex.
