Biography Edit

"I treat you vamps good. I don't hassle you. You don't hassle me. We all enjoy the patronage of this establishment. Everybody's happy."

―Willy^[src]

Willy was a double-crossing human, who basically followed instructions or requests as long as money was provided. He sometimes assisted Buffy Summers and other times betrayed her. Many individuals, both good and bad, often beat up Willy for information.

He kidnapped a weakened Angel after he was locked in a cage by Kendra, and brought him to Spike and Drusilla. Later, he lured Buffy to Spike's location in the hopes of getting a reward, unaware that the bounty Spike had put on Buffy's head to the Order of Taraka had been called off. Buffy beat him up "a couple times" in an attempt to gain the whereabouts of Angel.

He was approached by Buffy for information on the First Evil and the Bringers. He was attacked by the Sisterhood of Jhe and beaten so severely that he required medical attention. When Buffy found him, Willy warned her that the demons were very powerful and advised her to find Angel and spend her potential last day on Earth in happiness. Xander once bragged about beating information out of Willy "personally", but then admitted that he just bribed him with $28.

Buffy later went to his bar in an attempt to get information on the murder of a little boy.

By the next year, Willy remained in Sunnydale, though he also had another bartender in his employ to attend the bar.
