After high school, he attended Dartmouth College where he was majoring in Psychology and took two years of Tae Kwon Do. During this time, he took a year off to do an internship at the Sunnydale Mental Hospital.
Vampire
He was sired by Spike while under the influence of The First, along with a myriad of other people. Buffy, the Slayer, arrived to his grave to slay him. The two noticed eachother and decided to cease fighting to catch up and talk. Holden counselled Buffy about her issues with men and her superiority complex among her friends. Holden then attacked Buffy when she was caught off-guard and the two took the fight into a mausoleum where the two continued to talk about her issues. Holden finally concluded that Buffy will never be able to connect with others before she mentioned Spike, to which Holden acknowledged as his sire. Buffy then staked him, shocked at the realization that Spike was harming humans.
