Apart from Buffy the Vampire Slayer, James Marsters was known for his appearance on the spin-off Angel. He continued to play the role of Spike, the irreverent vampire turned incorporeal being, when he returned in the fifth season of the series. After his death during Buffy’s final season, he was resurrected by an amulet and battled enemies such as “The Reaper” and psychotic slayer Dana. Later, he became some sort of a rival to Angel, akin to a hero before being corrupted by the system of Wolfram & Hart. Notable for his lust for violence, he was considered as a paradox amongst vampires on the show, often contradicting vampire principles and embracing various aspects of humanity such as love and loyalty.

Vincent Kartheiser got his break on television with his roles as Connor on the spin-off series Angel. As the “miracle” human child of vampires, Angel and Darla, he possessed typical abilities of vampires, including superhuman strength, speed, recuperation, heightened sense and durability. He spent his childhood in Hell dimension and retuned to Los Angeles as a man raging in fury. Despite his being defeated by both Faith and Angel, he was considered stronger than most demons and vampires. Throughout the show, he was attracted to women like Sunny, Cordelia Chase, Faith Lehane, Tracy, and Illyria.
