Drusilla

Drusilla (born c. 1840 in London) is a fictional character created by Joss Whedon for the cult television programs, Buffy the Vampire Slayer and Angel. The character is portrayed by Juliet Landau.

In 1880, Drusilla sired the young poet William (later Spike).

Drusilla has the standard powers and vulnerabilities of a vampire. She is immortal, regenerates damage, drains human blood to survive and is stronger than most human beings. She is vulnerable to holy items and sunlight and can be killed by decapitation or a stake to the heart. She cannot enter the home of a living human without being invited by someone who lives there first. Drusilla is a seer with minor psychic abilities. She receives vivid visions that contain possible glimpses of the future and can also hypnotise people by catching their gazes; she can also see into people's minds and project false imagery into them, including inside dreams. She had these powers since before being made a vampire; their source or cause is unknown.
