- ―Kalderash woman[src]
An unidentified elderly woman was an Elder of the Kalderash people in 1898. She performed the Ritual of Restoration on Angelus to return his soul after he killed a beloved girl of her tribe.[1]
Afterwards, the remaining vampires of the Whirlwind — Darla, Spike, and Drusilla — massacred the Kalderash tribe in vengeance for Angelus's curse.[2]
Powers and abilities[]
Rupert Giles once stated that performing the Ritual of Restoration required a greater knowledge of magic than he could claim, and also warned Willow - who was, at that point, still an inexperienced witch - that channeling such potent magic through herself could open a door she might never be able to close.[1]
However, this Kalderash Elder successfully performed the ritual without letting the magic she channeled take over her,[1] unlike Willow's first time, which shows her knowledge and experience in magic.[3]
Behind the scenes[]
- She was portrayed by Shannon Welles.
- Unidentified in the series, she was credited simply as "Gypsy Woman."
- The story Spike vs. Dracula, Part One establishes her name as Magda, although of non-canon value.
