Angel/Angelus/Liam -

Connor/Stephen Franklin Thomas/Connor Reilly -

Cordelia Chase/Cordy -
 

Doyle(Allen Francis) - Half human, half demon, Irish Doyle was sent by the [PowersThat Be] in order to help Angel to fight Evil.

Doyle was raised human — his mother didn't tell him about his father being a demon, and he has never met him. He only found out about his demon side (he was a Brachen demon) when he came of age — and it was very hard for him to take this heritage.

Soon after his discover, he started having visions that showed people/demons in danger. When he got them for the first time, he thought he was having a stroke, he didn't know what the images meant, and thus, he ended up not keeping a relative of his, Lucas, and his clan, from being slaughtered by the Scourge, an army of pureblooded demons that hated half-breeds like Doyle himself. Later, when already working with Angel, Doyle died heroically, trying to stop the same group, which intended to kill every creature contaminated by human blood. He had a crush on Cordelia and, before sacrificing himself, he kissed her and transferred to her his visions (Hero).

He was married to the ethno-demonologist Harry for a while; she walked out on him because he became impossible to live with after he found out he was part demon. One day, she showed up in Los Angeles in order for him to sign the divorce papers — Harry was about to marry Richard Howard Straley, an Ano-Movick demon. However, the fiancé's clan had a strange ritual that meant eating the brain of the fiancée's ex-husband at the bachelor party, that is, Doyle's brain — which almost happened, if Angel hadn't intervened in time.

He liked to gamble and used to have problems because of it.

Fred (Winifred Burkle) -

Gunn (Charles) -

Illyria - Old One, a great monarch and warrior of the Demon Age, murdered by rivals and left adrift in the Deeper Well. After millions of years, resurrected in 2004, taking Fred's body as his shell. Tried to rise his Army of Doom, but failed, because his soldiers were long dead. Had most of his powers taken away by a weapon built by Wesley, what kept him from exploding. Unwillingly, at first, joined the Fang Gang and, eventually, helped them fight the Senior Partners.

HER STORY CONTINUES IN COMIC BOOKS

Lorne/Krevlornswath - Came from a dimension called [Pylea],a place he hated because there was no music, art or feelings there. In Pylea, where he was known as Krevlornswath of the Deathwok Clan, humans were called "cows" and treated as such. 

Lorne would have done anything to get out of Pylea — and one day he got lucky: on May 7, 1996, he was in the woods, when suddenly right in front of him, out of nowhere, a portal appeared and through it Lorne came to our dimension, ending up in an abandoned building in Los Angeles. His vanishing was a great mystery to his clan; it was hoped that he had sought atonement by forfeiting his life in the sacrificial canyons of Trelinsk.

After leaving his homeland, Lorne returned to Pylea just once, in order to help Angel, Wesley and Gunn rescue Cordelia, who was sent there by mistake. His people didn't like to see him again, at all, since he clearly had not forfeited his life in the sacrificial canyons of Trelinsk... From Pylea, the gang also rescued a human girl named Fred, who had been living in that hell dimension for 5 years.

Lorne is also known as The Host because he used to run in Los Angeles a karaoke bar called [Caritas],where humans and demons could drink and sang in harmony (or cacophony, depending on how badly, like Angel, they sang...) — by listening people sing, Lorne can read their auras and tell their innermost intentions; he himself loves to sing and has a wonderful voice.

After having his Caritas destroyed (twice), Lorne goes to live at the [Hyperion Hotel], with Angel, baby Connor and Fred. Several times, he baby-sits Connor, whom he is very fond of. However, after being kidnapped by Holtz and taken to a hell dimension, Connor (or Stephen) comes back weeks later, but as a 16-year-old teen who hates demons and vampires. Lorne, feeling uncomfortable and wanting to pursue a singing career, anyway, then leaves Los Angeles for Las Vegas.

However, in Las Vegas Lorne doesn't have much luck; he does get a good job at The Tropicana casino (as its main attraction), but at a high price. Its owner, Lee DeMarco, finds out that the green demon is able to read people's minds while they sing, and starts forcing him to do it in order to steal people's (good) futures. Lorne agrees with the deal after Lee kills one of his Lornettes (the girls who perform with him in the show). He is set free when the [Fang Gang] goes to Las Vegas, to visit him and attend his show at The Tropicana. Back to Los Angeles, the group finds Cordelia, who has been missing for months, standing at the entrance of the Hyperion (The House Always Wins). As Cordy is with amnesia, Angel asks Lorne to read her mind; he does it and has a terrifying vision of the future. Soon afterwards, [Wolfram& Hart] attacks Lorne and steals this piece of information from his mind, leaving the poor demon in a very bad condition (Slouching Towards Bethlehem).

Later, on an attempt to restore Cordy's memory, Lorne tries a spell on her that goes awfully wrong — all Fang Gang (but Lorne) loses their memories, becoming their 17-year-old personas again. Eventually, Cordy has her memory restored (Spin the Bottle).

After fighting and beating the Beast and Jasmine, Lorne, along with all Angel's team, Lorne accepts the Wolfram & Hart's proposal, and starts working at the entertainment department of the firm.

Sometimes, it's too much work; the poor green demon ends up getting exhausted, and without any sleep (he got it removed magically), he awakens his sunconscient — a BIG one, by the way (very much like The Hulk), causing some trouble to his friends. Not to mention that any wish made by him immediately turns real... (Life of the Party).

In the end (fighting the Senior Partners and the Circle of the Black Thorn), Angel gives him a very important task — to exterminate the Sahrvin Clan and kill Lindsey McDonald. Lorne accomplishes his task and leaves: according to him, he had already done enough (Not Fade Away).

HIS STORY CONTINUES IN COMIC BOOKS


The actor who portrayed Lorne, [Andy Hallett], passed away on March 29, 2009.
