Angel, first appeared in the first episode of Buffy as sort of a "cryptic
wiseman", as Buffy put it. Incredibly handsome, Angel came from Europe,
and is nearly 240 years old. He was created
by Darla early in the 18th century, and together they would go on massive
killing sprees. The last person he killed was a young gypsy girl, Buffy’s
age. Her family put a curse on him and brought back his soul. Now here
in America, heartbroken over what he was and still is, he has not fed on
a human being since he regained his soul. He lives on bags of blood which
he keeps in a refridgerator. He no longer lived under ground and keeps
his distance from the other vampires. In America he meets Buffy and falls
in love with her. It is not until later that Buffy discovers the true nature
of Angel. He is a vampire and she is the slayer. She is destined to kill
him but Buffy returns Angel’s love with her own. A few passionate kisses
and sentimental moments have been shared between the two but they both
know that a relationship between them is hopeless..or is it?
