[continued from previous message]   
      
   Buffy has developed a mystical protection over her body while incapacitated.   
   Instead of being prone to death like regular humans, she is protected. Even   
   when almost stabbed with a dagger, it splits when touching her skin. Perhaps   
   all of her years as a Slayer are finally paying dividends!   
               [this I do not remember!]

   HAD A TATTOO OF THE MARK OF EYGHON   
      
   Despite having some rebellious tendencies in her youth, Buffy always   
   remained on a straight-and-narrow path. She had her fun, but never went down   
   a dark route that some teenagers venture on. Besides getting one tattoo, she   
   never became too extreme. Except for the fact that the tattoo represented a   
   demon.   
      
   Buffy received the Mark Of Eyghon tattoo - the same tattoo Giles has - after   
   Ethan Rayne gave it to her against her will. Buffy swiftly had the tattoo   
   removed, but will always have a scar to remind her of it.

   SHE HAS BEEN TO HEAVEN [ / heavenly dimension]   
      
   She saved the world a lot, but she lost her life during the battle at least   
   twice. Despite having all the power in the world, Buffy was no match for her   
   enemies on a couple of occasions. However, the second time she lost her life   
   after battling Glory, she willingly sacrificed herself to close a portal to   
   a Hell dimension.   
      
   While her friends assumed she was locked away among demons, Buffy revealed   
   that she was actually in Heaven. When her friends resurrected her to "save"   
   her, they were actually removing her from peace. Buffy is the only one of   
   her group to experience Heaven, and was understandably wrecked when she was   
   pulled away from it.

   HAS PREMONITIONS ABOUT THE FUTURE   
      
      
   Out of all of Buffy's powers, her latent ability to dream about the future   
   is amongst her most unexplored. In fact, this is the only power which Buffy   
   does not know how to control or fully understand. She is given many clues   
   over the years in her dreams about what the future holds, but is never able   
   to fully comprehend them until it is too late.   
      
   As early as season three, Buffy is given clues to the arrival of Dawn   
   Summers, but is not able to understand them. Joss Whedon has confirmed these   
   clues over the years, but Buffy was not able to pick up on any of them.

   BODY HAS GONE CATATONIC   
      
   Along with all the power in the world, also comes with the weight of the   
   world on her shoulders. To say that Buffy has been through a lot since she   
   was seventeen would be an understatement. All of this must weigh heavy on   
   her, so fans have forgiven her many emotional outbursts.   
      
   Buffy's mental anguish reached a breaking point when Dawn was taken in   
   season five. After realizing that she failed to protect her sister, Buffy   
   went catatonic and could not be shaken out of her own mind. Thankfully,   
   Willow's magic allowed them to support Buffy through her grief, but The   
   Slayer certainly had her weakest moment.

   SUPER SENSES   
      
   Is there anything that Buffy Summer can't do? It seems that she has an   
   answer for everything, including gaining higher-than-average senses. If   
   Marvel did not have it trademarked, she could have easily called it   
   Slayer-sense.   
      
   Throughout her battles, Buffy seems to be able to sense danger coming from   
   miles away. Even when her opponents are stealthy - or even invisible, in   
   some cases - she is able to sense them coming and attack them. While this   
   has proved difficult for the others she fights with, Buffy is able to sense   
   them with ease.

   DEVELOPS BAD BODY ODOR  [beer bad]   
      
   Hey, can anyone be 100% perfect all the time? Even being a Slayer has to   
   have some sort of drawback. When Buffy starts to spiral towards rock bottom   
   and develops a proclivity for drinking in college, she starts to revert   
   towards being a primitive cavewoman. Perhaps it is because the beer was   
   laced with magic, so fans can give her some slack.   
      
   However, the real drawback for Buffy here is that her new found primal   
   instincts also let out her incredibly bad body odour.

   HAS AN ATTRACTION TO VAMPIRES   
      
   Considering that Sarah Michelle Gellar was once crowned the Sexiest Woman in   
   the World, it is easy to think that she could have anyone she desired.   
   However, Buffy certainly has a "type" that she sets her eyes on. While some   
   would think it is tall, dark and handsome, her men need to have a "lifeless"   
   quality about them.   
      
   While Buffy did date Riley and other humans over the years, her only true   
   loves came in the form of vampires. Whether fans are Team Angel or Team   
   Spike, there is no denying that Buffy really only loves men of the vampiric   
   variety.   
      
      
   4   
      
   SCARS FROM BEING STABBED   
      
   As Spike says to her, it does not matter how many vampires Buffy dusts, all   
   it takes is for any vampire to have "one good day" to take her out. Buffy   
   almost experienced this herself when one vampire was able to turn her own   
   stake against her and stab her in the ribs.   
      
   While Riley was able to get revenge for her, Buffy was close to seeing the   
   end of her Slayer career. It would not be the first time a Slayer has lost   
   to a vampire, but it was a first for Buffy to have someone other than a Big   
   Bad have a shot at defeating her. Now she has to live with those scars as a   
   reminder forever.

   COULD HEAR PEOPLE’S THOUGHTS   
      
   When fighting demons and other unworldly creatures, it seems to happen that   
   some of their powers have lingering effects for those that come into contact   
   with them. Usually these do not have positive outcomes, which is what   
   happened to Buffy when she came into contact with mouthless monsters.   
      
   After coming into contact with their blood, Buffy was able to hear the   
   thoughts of those around her. While initially very excited about this   
   "power" she realized that it would eventually drive her insane. It may have   
   been short-lived, and while it could have been useful in battle would have   
   ended the Slayer if she kept it around.   
      
      
   2   
      
   HAS SOME OF THE SCOOBY GANG INSIDE HER   
      
   No, not like that! Buffy has always remained civil around her Scooby-gang   
   counterparts, and has always kept their relationships platonic. However,   
   their closeness and friendship has had benefits other than just camaraderie.   
      
   When facing the impossible task of defeating Adam, the Scoobies grouped   
   together into an unstoppable force. By joining together through a magic   
   spell. Buffy is able to combine all of their powers together to defeat Adam.   
   With Giles' intellect, Xander's heart, Willow's essence and Buffy's   
   strength, they are able to swiftly defeat the Big Bad, and Buffy is able to   
   keep pieces of her friends inside her forever.

   MAY HAVE DIED THREE TIMES   
      
   Buffy wears the fact that she has died, yet returned twice on her sleeve,   
   and is even proud of that fact. Considering all that she has done, this is a   
   great accomplishment. However, she may have been leaving out one very   
   important life event.   
      
   Following Warren's gun attack in Seeing Red, Buffy's heart stopped while in   
   the hospital. Thankfully, Willow was able to magically remove the bullet   
   from her and she began breathing again. However, this is similar to how she   
   passed away in season one, so she may have actually left us three times over   
   her Slayer career.
