Certain beings were artificially created through magical means.
Examples[]
In 1997, Billy Palmer manifested as an astral body after he was beaten into a coma. The nightmares of the people of Sunnydale manifested and modified reality due to the unnatural energies of the Hellmouth. Among the scenarios created, some of the nightmares brought to reality involved magical constructs. Willow experienced a stage manager forcing her to perform on stage beside an opera singer. Xander experienced being pursued by an evil clown. Billy's fear of his Kiddie League coach manifested as the Ugly Man. These constructs were undone once Billy woke up.[1]
When summoned in the Alpha Delta fraternity house, Gachnar, the fear demon, terrorized its partygoers by trapping them inside the house and making Halloween decorations temporarily real. The constructs included a skeleton, a human head, and a cloud of bats.[2]
Thaumogenesis was the process through which a new being was created as a by-product of a spell.[3] For Jonathan's augmentation spell,[4] the result was the Monster; for Willow's resurrection spell, the result was the Child of Words.[3]
To prevent Glorificus from using the Key, the monks of the Order of Dagon performed a ritual to turn the mystical energy into human so Buffy, the Slayer, would protect it. The ritual created Dawn Summers along with false memories of her always being Buffy's younger sister.[5]
A Child of the Senior Partners was an immortal being the Senior Partners created to act as agents for Wolfram & Hart. Two examples were Eve and Marcus Hamilton, who performed the role of liaison to the Senior Partners for Angel.[6]
A dream Angel had under the effects of a Selminth parasite involved a bear assisting Fred dissect Angel and the Blue Fairy turning Spike into a human.[7]
