Anyanka, a ex vengence demon. Not much was actualy known about Anya, she came to Sunnydale and when the whole Cordelia, Oz, Willow, and Xander mess happened. She granted Cordelia's wish of Buffy never coming to Sunnydale. It was a horrible reality, Oz, Giles and a few others were resitence fighters in the on going strugle against the vampires. The Master was alive and Xander and Willow were vampires, and Buffy was in Cleveland fighting demonic activity as the slayer. Cordelia was killed by the two and as Giles learns from her that Buffy should of been there he tries to contact her. Eventualy Buffy comes to Sunnydale to find out what had been going on and Giles investigates the Amulet Anya gave her. Buffy with the whole slayer attitude not her familar wise cracking self finds the hideout and finds Angel who was the puppy to Willow and Xander. She helps Angel get out of his chains and leads her to the Master. Giles found out the amulet whats its for and summons Anyanka. Demanding to know what Cordelia wished for. As a battle wages we see Angel become the first casulty from an arrow, Xander was the next staked by Buffy. Willow was staked by a peice of wood by Oz, and right as Giles smashes Anya's amulet beliving and hopeing for a better world, the Master kills Buffy. The dimenson known as Bizzaro Sunnydale was gone and Anya was human. At one point she tried with Willow to get her powers back but it failed. Anya was also Xander's date for the Prom. Anya also gave valuble info on the Acension with The Mayor but fled town. We didn't see her again till season four and wanted to be with Xander. The two slowly became a couple and loved each other a lot. We find out more and more about Anya like she is pertrified of Bunny and she once made a man into a troll. Also Anya became a employee of The Magic Box, Giles' shop. When he left she gained control of it , but he still owned it. Before going into battle against Glory, Xander propsed to Anya and she said yes. They didn't announce it till Halloween after Buffy came back from the grave. They planned and planned and once the wedding happened it was mayhem and chaos. Because of a man she once gave vengence to, he came back and gave Xander the hebegebes, but also cause of watching his Father and his fears, he left Anya at the alter. Only for D'Hoffryn to offer her job back and become demon once again. Because of this she was actualy quite helpfull in the battle against Dark Willow. She could sense her and was quite good with magic because Tara had passed on and Giles wasn't back yet. She stuck with Giles when things were grim for him but he pulled through, because of this Anya will probably stick with the gang.
This season we known that Anya has regained her Vengence demon powers, but it doesn't stay for long. After Willow comes back from England, she runs into Anya coming out of a Frat house and finds that Anya has killed the. Buffy runs into the conclusion she must kill Anya. Xander protests this and Buffy brings up the time with Angelus and what Xander said to Buffy on her way to fight him. Buffy still goes off to fight Anya. Untill D'Hoffryn comes back and Anya says she's willing to give it all up to not be one any more. He says it requires a sacrfice of a vengence demon to do this and she prepares for the worst when really all he does is kill her best friend Hallie. Anya is devistaed and Xander tries to comfort her, but the two reasure one another and walk off. Anya through most of the season has been helping in the ways of former demon contacts. Trying to figure out as much as she can against the battle with the first, but when Anya and Giles talk to one they find out the first is her because of the slayer living, and she presumes it's because of Anya, Willow, Xander and Tara rasining Buffy from the Grave. Anya has continued to be as much help as she can, finding out the Uber-vamps can be stakes, but they have harsh skin. Holy water doesn't work, decapitation does, and sun light does. While Xander and her have been having break up sex and end of the world sex, it's not know if the two will hook back up. Anya stuck through till the end and actualy formed a close friendship with Andrew, and was paired up with him in the final battle, Andrew gave her some fuel for the battle by telling her to imagine that the Ubervamps and Bringers were Bunnies, but unfortunatly during the final battle against The First Anya was lost in battle as a Bringer came up from behind to slice her rather harshly. Xander was yelling for her as they left Sunnydale High, as Sunnydale began to crumble in. Xander asks Andrew what happened and saving that she died to save him. Xander simply replied with a tear in his eye "That's my girl. Always doing the stupid thing". Anya's evolution to who she was at the end was impressive, and certinly will not be forgotten by the scoobies.
