Now
a 240 something Vampire, Angelus was one
of the evilest vampires to walk the
earth, he killed for fun, not just to
feed. When he killed a gypsy girl about
100 years ago, he had his soul restored
for eternal vengance.
He was sired by Darla in his
home country of Ireland, and has sired
many a vamp himself since, including
Drusilla who in turn sired Spike.
After having his soul
restored he was spurned by Darla and
ended up surviving on rats, and wondered
the streets as a tramp.

Buffy
Season 1
He
was eventually seconded by a friendly Demon,
Whistler, to help the new Slayer, a nieve
teenager called Buffy Summers. When he'd got
himself into shape, he followed her to the
Hellmouth, and began watching over her, always in
the right place at the right time to rescue her.
On one occassion he 'dusted' his own Sire, Darla,
in order to protect Buffy.
Buffy Season 2
Slowly
they fell in love, and on Buffy's seventeenth
birthday they gave in to their passion for each
other, with nightmare results. Angel lost his
soul, and reverted to the evil Angelus. He
terrorised Buffy and her friends, and murdered
Miss Calender, leaving her body in Giles' house.
Eventually the battle between slayer and vampire
came to a head when Angel opened a gateway to
Hell through the demon Acathla. Only his blood
could close the gateway. Before Buffy could send
Angelus to Hell, closing the gateway, Willow
managed to restore his soul. But the gateway had
to be closed. Buffy had to send her Angel to
Hell....
Buffy Season 3
....then
he came back, a tourtured soul. He gradually
recovered, and carried on watching over Buffy.
Eventually he realised being around Buffy was not
good for either of them, and leaves Sunnydale to
start a new life in LA, fighting evil, to redeem
his soul....
Angel Season 1
Initially
shying away from people, in case he got the urge
to 'nibble' one, Angel was encouraged to become
more involved with human society by a new
part-demon mentor, Allan Francis Doyle. With the
additional help of Cordelia, who was in need of a
job, they set up Angel Investigations, with the
'tag' line 'We help the helpless'. Doyle had his
own past to redeem, and sacrificed himself so
that Angel would live. It took a little while for
Angel to come to terms with losing his friend,
but eventually invited the hapless ex-watcher
Wesley to join Angel Investigations. A strong
family-like bond has slowly evolved between the
three.
Angel Season 2
Coming
soon...
