Editing Buffy the Vampire Slayer (section)

==Angel: The Roleplaying Game==
In the first three seasons of Buffy the Vampire Slayer, one of the most popular secondary protagonists was ''Angel''; a handsome, brooding guy with whom Buffy was smitten and who turned out to be a repentant vampire desperately seeking to atone for the evil he had done before a magical spell had forcibly restored his soul. Angel and Buffy engaged in a romantic cat-and-mouse game for many episodes before finally sleeping together... which turned out to be the key to breaking the spell that bound Angel's human soul to his undead body. Reverting to "Angelus", the monstrous side of himself, he caused great trouble before Buffy managed to forcibly rebind him to his human soul by the end of the third season. Understandably, Angel took this as a sign that he and Buffy couldn't be together, so he split; leaving Sunnydale, he moved to Los Angels and set up an occult detective business, along with a half-demon oracle and Cordelia, one of Buffy's former bullies.

Naturally, [[Eden Studios]] couldn't resist expanding the BtVS RPG by following in the series' tracks and doing an Angel RPG to match the spin-off.

Mechanically, Angel follows the same basic principles as its elder counterpart, although it changes the character type names - ''White Hats'' become '''Investigators''', ''Heroes'' become '''Champions''' and ''Experienced Heroes'' become '''Veterans'''. It's all just semantics. Whereas BtVS Corebook presented the option to play Slayers, Robots, Vampires and Werewolves, Angel offers Demons, Half-Demons, Revenants and Vampires. In the case of the Demon and Half-Demon, there are specific versions of the quality to represen demons and half-breeds established on the show, as well as rules for custom-building your own. The Encyclopedia Demonica offers more Demon and Half-Demon variants as playable races, and of course you can always borrow from the BtVS races (or vice versa).
