Buffy Summers (Enjoining Spell)

Buffy Summers's History

In 2000, the core four members of the Scooby Gang — Buffy, Xander, Willow, and Giles — called upon the spirit of Sineya, the First Slayer, and performed the spell in attempt to defeat the bio-mechanical demonoid Adam.

During their previous planning, Willow wanted to cast a spell on Adam, but only Giles knew how to pronounce the spell's wording correctly. Xander then unwittingly inspired the use of the spell by suggesting that they needed to combine their respective talents into one, causing Giles to remember that such a ritual existed.

The four performed the spell at the underground Initiative facilities. Willow acted as the spirit, Xander as the heart, Giles as the mind, and Buffy as the hand. When the spell began to take effect, the first three had their bodies immobile in trance, while the voices of all four spoke through Buffy's body. The resulting abilities were far superior than Adam's, so the Scoobies were able to successfully remove his power source, the uranium 235 core, and defeat the creature.

Requirements

The spell required the use of Tarot cards, lit candles, and a magic gourd. Sitting in a circle, the invoking of Sineya began:

"The power of the Slayer and all who wield it. Last to ancient first, we invoke thee. Grant us thy domain and primal strength. Accept us and the power we possess. Make us mind and heart and spirit enjoined. Let the hand encompass us. Do thy will. By the generous will of the Ancients, the almighty power of the Divine Spirits… Your supplicants humbly beseech thee to behold us, and that which we possess… The moieties of the One, the Avatar… Spiritus… spirit. Animus… heart. Sophus… mind. And Manus… the hand. We enjoin that we may inhabit the vessel, the hand… Daughter of Sineya… First of the ones… We implore thee: admit us. Bring us to the vessel! Take us now! We are heart… We are mind… We are spirit… From the raging storm… We bring the power of the Primeval One…"
