Cordelia Chase

Cordelia Chase is a fictional character created by Joss Whedon for the cult television programs Buffy the Vampire Slayer and Angel. The character is portrayed by Charisma Carpenter.

Cordelia first appears in the Buffy pilot, "Welcome to the Hellmouth".

Originally a normal human, Cordelia began receiving prophetic visions from The Powers That Be in the first season episode, "Parting Gifts". The visions usually consist of ambiguous imagery of forthcoming attacks on innocents or various demonic disasters. Cordelia used this imagery to help Angel prevent them from happening.
