   Maybe the new series will have a permanently dead Buffy, or she was   
   demoted ... or even she became a demon.   
      
   Of course, Star Wars (after Darth Bane made the rule) can only have two   
   Sith Lords at one time, but that hasn't stopped them having a multitude   
   of Force-capable henchmen ... "henchpeople".
