This is a list of objects that have played significant roles in Buffy the Vampire Slayer, Angel, and associated works of fiction. Most of these objects are magical.
Objects appearing in television episodes
Object | Appearance | Description |
---|---|---|
Anyanka's Amulet | The Wish | Anyanka's amulet is the focus of her vengence demon powers. In The Wish, she uses it to grant Cordelia's vengance wish, which places her into an alternate Sunnydale. In order to restore the world, Giles smashes the amulet, trapping Anya in mortal and powerless form. An officially licensed replica amulet is manufactured by Factory X. |
Buffy bot | Intervention | A robot created by Warren Mears at Spike's insistence, the Buffybot was used as a decoy in the fight against Glory in The Gift, and as a decoy in the early part of season six. |
Dagon sphere | No Place Like Home | An ancient magical orb, that serves to protect the Scoobies from Glory in season 5. |
Gem of Amara | "In the Dark (Angel)" | Spike sought the gem in Sunnydale, expecting it to render him invincible and "allow him to kill the Slayer." After recovering it, Buffy had Oz bring it to Angel in Los Angeles, where Angel eventually destroyed it. |
"Mr. Pointy" | What's My Line, Part One | A stake first owned by Kendra, which Buffy kept and used after Kendra's death. |
Olaf's Hammer | Triangle | Buffy acquires this hammer after defeating the troll Olaf, Anya's ex-boyfriend. She later uses it to attack Glory in The Gift. |
Orb of Thesulah | City of Angel | Used in a Gypsy ritual by the Kalderash clan to restore a vampire's soul, most notably Angel. It is used to bring the soul from the nether realms and contain it until it can be put back into its owner's body. Nikki Stafford writes that although it is comical that Rupert Giles uses the orb as a paperweight, "it seems strange he wouldn't have offered it earlier for a restoration spell, or why Jenny doesn't see it in his office." An officially licensed replica orb is manufactured by Factory X. |
Resikian Urn | Used to trap Granok demons, extradimensional entities which time travel and move through dimensions. The urns are said to only last a lifetime, but the demons usually do not. Justine uses a Resikian Urn to capture Sahjhan. | |
Scythe | Fray (creation) Touched (chronology) | A magical weapon first appearing in Fray, and later in Buffy season 7 and the season 8 comics. While a scythe is nominally an agricultural tool, this one is a powerful and magical melee weapon: Willow is able to tap the Scythe's powers to activate all the world's potential slayers in the season 7 finale, Chosen, which sets up the events of season 8. An officially licensed replica scythe is manufactured by Factory X. |
Urn of Osiris | Bargaining part one | The Urn of Osiris was a key component in the spell that Willow used to bring Buffy back to life in the beginning of season six. An officially licensed replica urn is manufactured by Factory X, and a separate replica was produced by Diamond Select. |
Objects appearing only in print
Object | Appearance | Description |
---|---|---|
Dagger of Draknar | Night Terrors | A dagger that cuts away the memories of its victims. Stolen by Ethan Rayne but then presumably returned by the Scoobies. |
Gem of Ehktat | Night Terrors | A gem that shows the user when they are going to die and how to prevent it. Stolen by Ethan Rayne but then presumably returned by the Scoobies. |
Medallion of Morpheus | Night Terrors | A bronze medallion that allows the user to teleport to another dimension after using the correct incantation. The medallion itself remains behind. "Furan-nak-ta-ha-farnak" teleports to a dimension containing the species that the Night Terror is a member of. "Ak-bah-mah-ha-nee" teleports to an alternate dimension where Buffy Summers was killed in a fire and Angel has found a way to become human. |
