Ohhhh a wealth of options here! And I am going to go with some unpopular ones, because I am contrary like that. >:D

Cordelia Chase: OH CORDY. How so awesome! I am a total sucker for the bitchy-girl-turned-awesome-heroine trope - that girl who may be a jerk, but you know what, in face of peril, she continues to be a jerk who does what needs doing and also is a jerk to the bad guys, and thus proves her bona fides of hardcoreness. I loved how she did not care enough to tell the nice little lies to each other that everybody else did, and that she might not have actually liked the Scoobies all that much, actually, but that doesn't stop her from fighting evil anyway.

Tara: What I love most about Tara is how, once she comes out of her shell a little, she is so quietly sane. When everyone else in season six is running around digging themselves deeper and deeper into their own little unhappy holes, Tara gets herself out of an unhappy situation and keeps on living her life. She's calm, but she's got massive amounts of backbone. Also I love her ridiculous dress sense.

Amanda: My favorite Potential Slayer! Plays D&D with the best of them! Punches annoying boys in the FACE! shati and I once stayed up all night rewriting the last few seasons of Buffy; in our version, Jonathan and Amanda both live, and hook up, and are the most adorably height-incompatible couple ever and play D&D ALL THE TIME. And that is how it will always be in my heart. <3

Also: for you, the works of Shakespeare! Whatever you have read most recently.
