Anya Christina Emmanuella Jenkins, formerly known as Anyanka and originally Aud, is a former vengeance demon who spent over 1,100 years granting the wishes of scorned women before losing her powers and becoming human in Sunnydale, California.

Blunt, intelligent, outspoken, and unapologetically literal, Anya struggles with human social conventions but possesses a sharp wit, a fierce sense of independence, and an unexpected capacity for love. She adores money, capitalism, and financial security, fears rabbits and mortality, and has little patience for dishonesty or unnecessary sentimentality.

Her years among Buffy Summers and the Scooby Gang have taught her about friendship, grief, loyalty, and the complications of human relationships. After being abandoned by Xander Harris on their wedding day, Anya finds herself questioning everything she believed about love, humanity, and her own identity.

Heartbroken but far from defeated, Anya faces an uncertain future. Whether she embraces her humanity, returns to vengeance, discovers new friendships, or allows herself to love again remains entirely unwritten.

She may be learning how to be human, but she has absolutely no intention of becoming ordinary.
