Lady Genevieve Savidge

History

There are nearly two thousand women with the powers of the slayer, but not all of them have chosen to use their newfound abilities conscientiously.

Lady Genevieve “Gigi” Savidge is a British socialite Slayer who is targeted for assassination by Giles and Faith due to her plans to usurp Buffy’s place in the Slayer hierarchy and, ultimately, end the world. She is guided by an Roden, an Irish warlock who serves Twilight. With Roden, she hunts and kills other Slayers as part of her training. Faith poses as an English aristocrat in order to crash Lady Genevieve’s birthday party and assassinate her. Instead, Gigi and Faith find they share a lot in common; both as Slayers and as troubled young women enticed by evil, despite their drastically different backgrounds (upper class British and working class South Boston). When Gigi discovers Faith’s treachery and tenuous affiliation with Buffy, she distraughtly fights Faith to the death, and is accidentally killed by an axe. Roden’s attempt to sway Faith to take Gigi’s place fail and is killed by Giles.

Powers + Weaknesses

Gigi is a Slayer and has the normal powers that other Slayers do, including superhuman strength, speed, agility, reflexes, durability, accelerated healing, and a limited ability to sense the presence of demons.

She also possesses the collective memories of all past Slayers, which she sees as nightmares that she wants to be rid of, allowing her to be easily manipulated by Roden who convinces her that the nightmares will end if she kills Buffy.
