Bezoar

Bezoar

The Bezoar was a prehistoric parasite whose offspring were capable of attaching themselves to other creatures and taking control of their motor functions via neural clamping.

History

A bezoar was uncovered living under Sunnydale High School in early 1998. It immediately took over a health teacher, who had its eggs distributed to the students for an experiment in parenting. These eggs then hatched and took over the students, except for the eggs owned by Buffy Summers and Xander Harris, which were killed. Buffy then confronted and killed the mother bezoar, killing its offspring in the process.
