Big bads and demons in L.A.
Spoilers if anyone hasn't watched it all.
The old ones, jasmine, the beast, illyria, the wolf, the ram and the Hart. How do they measure up to the ones in Sunnydale in your opinion?
It was crazy to me when I first heard of wolfram and hart were once not even low level demons. Now they're a global entity, which we didn't get to see enough of the other offices around the world.
It's also something to me that they worked against The First in that they produced the champions amulet to lilah to give up Angel to give to Buffy for spike to wear that was the only way the sunnydale hellmouth was defeated and closed up. The Ubervamps overwhelmed the slayers and they lost quite a few girls, including Anya who was still a demon and survived a sword stabbing earlier in the season, yet died by a bringer.
While wr&h weren't themselves defeated, their plans were as were their tool, the circle of the black thorn, which one of their own, Lindsey, assisted in that. Now that I think of it, it's disappointing that The First didn't do anything to them for helping the slayers against it.
As powerful as they were, mesektet and ra'tet, they were killed by the beast and that made me wonder as i thought about it. Was the beast always that strong or was he also empowered by jasmine in order to accomplish all that he did? And why didn't the first employ the beast to assist in sunnydale?
I also wished that WR&H gave Buffy and gang more attention and maybe employ some when they hired Angel investigations.
