Dracula turned himself into a bat and a wolf. What if Raven could turn herself into a Raven, or something else? I know the Raven was seen as a trickster in Native American myth, so it kind of fits. We could have her able to turn into other animals too. A snake perhaps, giving us the link to persperatia?

[> Thats a cool idea, but lets introduce that a little later -- Faithsguy, 20:09:09 03/05/03 Wed

in my episode there is no room for her to shapeshift, so maybe eppies 5 thru 8 or so what to start to look back on her history, establish who she is....My episode just introduces her character and the fact that she is a vamped slayer and that buffy, faith and raven can see into each others dreams

[> [> What if we held off revealing that she's a vamped Slayer? -- Kashmanik, 21:43:34 03/05/03 Wed

Perhaps Buffy and Faith should realise that there is something going on, but we don't find out who's messing with them for a while. After all, we don't want to give away too much too early. Maybe all we see in Ep 8 is a different animal following the Slayers in their real lives. Like, we see a raven flying along after Faith as she's on her way to Xander's house, and we see a dog wandering around outside Buffy's house.

If you've already established that we do find out, that's fine, but I think a little more suspense might work well. Just like with S7. We know in Conversations With Dead People that something is psychologically attacking the Scoobs, but we don't find out exactly who until Never Leave Me.
