Labyrinth maps of Malta, The — Lysette

[ L ]

Labyrinth maps of Malta, The: Gwendolyn Post mocked Giles for not having this book in his library.

Lagos: demon who came to Sunnydale to find the Glove of Mynnigon. Buffy decapitated him with his own sword.

Larry: Sunnydale High School student. Turned into a pirate on Halloween after hiring a costume from Ethan’s Costume Shop. Confessed to Xander that he was gay.

Laura: Sunnydale High student badly beaten and hospitalized by The Ugly Man.

Le Banquet d’Amelia: movie that Angel took Buffy to see. Neither of them realized just how sexual it would be.

Lee, John: Sunnydale High School student, and member of the football team. A real jerk.

Legend of Olukai: see Olvicon, The Legend of.

Legend of Olvicon: see Olvicon, The Legend of.

Lenny: vampire that used to be one of Spike’s gang, but challenged him when Spike returned to Sunnydale. His former boss won the fight and staked Lenny.

Leoff demon: Long hair, white faces, red noses, and suppurating sores. Like to suck marrow. Glory recruited some to kill the Slayer.

Lethe’s bramble: used for augmenting spells of forgetting and mind control. Willow used it to make Tara forget that they had argued. She also used it with potentially fatal consequences for a Tabula Rasa spell.

Levinson, Jonathon: short student with a talent for magic. Asthmatic and anaemic. A nerd. Was going to shoot himself with a rifle once, but Buffy stopped him. Presented Buffy with the Class Protector award at the ’99 Prom. After his suicide attempt, Jonathon was sent to counseling. There he met a kid who taught him how to perform an augmentation spell. Jonathon formed The Trio with Andrew Wells and Warren Meers. He had more magical ability than the other two, and they bullied him. Jonathon wanted to leave the group after the death of Katrina. He was often disturbed by some of the plans that Warren made, but didn’t have the courage to stand up to the other two.

Lilac One: Riley Finn’s call sign.

Living flame: the only thing that can destroy the Glove of Mynnigon. Angel conjured it using herbs and Latin incantations.

Liam: Angel’s human name. He took the name ‘Angel’ because his little sister believed he had returned from the dead as an angel. He slaughtered her and the rest of his family when she invited him in.

Lily: name Chanterelle called herself after she left Sunnydale. Her boyfriend, Rickie, chose it for her. Ken tricked Lily into joining Family Home after Rickie went missing. See also Anne.

Livin’ entirely large: One of Faith’s expressions meaning that life is good right now.

Lizette: friend of Cordelia. Had a botched nose job at Sunnydale Hospital.

Lohesh: four winged soul killer. Pure demon. Massive. 800 years ago in the Cosca Valleys lived a sorcerer who gained ascension. He became the living embodiment of the demon Lohesh, and decimated the village in which he lived within hours.

Lorraine Ross: see Ross, Lorraine.

Love makes you do the wacky: you do crazy things when you are in love.

Love Spell: Amy Madison tried to put a love spell on Cordelia for Xander. It backfired, and every woman in Sunnydale except for Cordelia fell for his charms. Unfortunately they all became homicidally jealous as well. After Druscilla left Spike, he kidnapped Willow to make her perform a love spell to get Dru back.

Lowell House: Fraternity House directly above The Initiative’s secret base. From 1949 to 1960 it was a home for children run by Ms Genevieve Holt. Ms Holt was a religious fanatic who mistreated the children, meting out cruel punishments for what she perceived as sins. She cut off girls’ hair to ‘cure’ vanity, and half-drowned children in the bath in bizarre baptisms. When Buffy and Riley (who resided at Lowell House) went into sex overdrive, the spirits of these children began to recreate their misery. See also Julie.

Lucius Temple, The Diary of: Lucius was an expert on demons and … er… gardening. Giles has his diary in the library.

Lucky Nineteen: see Billy Palmer.

Luke: Vampire. Member of The Order of Aurelius. The Master’s right hand man. Including Buffy, only two people ever fought him and lived. During the ritual The Harvest, Luke was The Vessel.

Lumas, Katie: Student at UC Sunnydale. Parker Abrams tried chatting her up after he ditched Buffy.

Lurconis: Huge, snakelike demon that lived in a tunnel in Sunnydale’s sewers. It demanded a tribute of live babies every thirty years. The Mayor was due to make the tribute, and had Mister Trick hire Ethan Rayne to keep the adult population out of the way. Lurconis means ‘Glutton’. Buffy torched it by lighting an exposed gas pipe in the sewer. See also Band candy.

Lyle Gorch: see Gorch, Lyle.

Lysette: blonde who went for a drive with Xander because she liked his car. (Xander had borrowed it from his Uncle Rory.) Was obsessed with automobiles. Lysette ran off when she saw Jack O’Toole ‘raise’ one of his long dead friends.
