Heres an easy one for any Faith fan, the first person to answer this question wins an 8x10 autographed Eliza pic with COA.
Question:
What is the name of the knife given to Faith by the 'best bad guy' ever in the Buffyverse, namely: The Mayor...?
Rules: 1) You can disagree that The Mayor was the best bad guy ever,even if I don't understand 'why'.
2) You can't post the answer until this site officially opens.
3) For any questions re-read 1 and 2.
:-)

Greetings! I have really racked my brain on this one and have watched Episodes 19, 20, 21 and 22 of Buffy's second season and "This Years Girl" and "Who Are You" from season 4 as well many times, and the nearest thing to a name for the knife is "A Thing Of Beauty" as Faith calls it when she see's it for the first time or some people like to call it the "Gustafson Blade" (which is kind of an inacurate name because this is taken from a season 4 episode when Faith looks into a shop window and see a sign above some knifes that says "Gustafson Blades" but is really a tribute to a production team member who p@ssed away right before the episode was shot). I hope this was the answer you were looking for!!!

Welcome The Slayer Guy!
Theres a possible Angel spoiler at the end of this post, if you don't want to see it stop at the spoiler space.

I can't say whether you're correct or not, because the site hasn't 'officially opened yet'. I'll do that the day 'Tru Calling Premieres'. With summer finally here and the fact that the show hasn't even started yet this forum won't get in gear until then.
About Tru Calling: I do think that Tru needs her own 'kryptonite', just like every 'superhero' with a 'superpower'. I'd give her a 'phobia', which inhabits her ability to complete 'her mission'. Fear of heights would get lame, with her always having to go 'out on a ledge' to save someone. In fact I'd make her fearless in bad situations, as a balance to her troubles dealing with everyday life, due the the early tragedies she had to endure. And the continuing family strife. It would make her more 'human', to have a real problem, and not 'just the weight of the world' on her shoulders. And sometimes her phobia could prevent her from saving someone, only adding to her guilt. I wonder if she will 'ever quit' and just say 'I'm not doing it anymore! I quit!" (Just yelling into the air, to 'whoever' or 'whatever' is making her relive a day) Then in the last seconds, she can't do it, and has to go running off with only seconds to save someone. And since shes in Manhattan, shes 'got' to take cabs, and run into some real NY characters.
OK, possible Angel spoiler... . . . . . . . . . . . . I think your nic is really kewl, 'The Slayer Guy', because we may just have the world's very first male slayer next year on Angel, namely: SPIKE!
I like the idea, he'd be 'trapped' in LA, and unable to go find Spuffy, I mean Buffy, and he could go toe to toe with Angel,making for some very good fights. I could see them battling a big bad and argueing during the battle, then finally beating on each other. As the big bad just stands there out of breath 'sword in hand' with a look on its face like: 'WTF!?' LOL, theres much they can do with this.
Also Angel has to get jealous that Spike can go out into the world during the day, and Wes, now that he's 'finally' back with Angel has to get jealous of Spike, too. And since they both have souls there should be some good arguments about that, hinted at by Angel with his 'I got my soul FIRST', speech to Buffy.
In my opinion, Angel was out of the picture at the end, had Spike not gone all CGI and crumbled to dust. When B said 'I love you', to Spike, I think she meant it.
It should get REAL interesting around the middle to the end of Angel next year, because I feel that a certain person will just pop up in LA and get all the termoil of Sunnydales demise roiling again, namely: FAITH!
...its going to be Good!

RE:wait how, when did spike be able to go outside in the day, i dont remember that part -----------------
This is just a POSSIBLE spoiler, it may not be really true. The story is that Spike will be 'rewarded by the powers that be' for destroying the First's Army, and he will be made HUMAN. But because he was holding hands with Buffy, at the time all the potentials were made into real Slayers, somehow he got 'the power' and will become the world's First Male Slayer!
Its a cool idea, but right now its just rumor....is it true???
We'll have to wait and see...

Hi there, The Blade is called the Gustafson Blade. But Faith, when she first sees it refers to it as "A thing of beauty" Hopefully this is the answer your looking for. thankyou (Great Website) ;D

The Knife that Faith recieves is actually called the "Jackal". It took some time researching this information but I'm sure this is correct. Cant wait for your show Eliza !!!

Also, I think the "best bad guy" ever would be the first. He was very powerful and found a way to play with each and every characters mind. Each in a different person. He is the Best bad guy
