She could turn into a bat, like Dracula? Although I don't think having the ability to put people under her thrall like Dracula did would work - not for a whole season.

Heh, and here's a thought - what if we see in a flashback that years earlier, Raven cut her chest open and implanted metal armour around her heart - just a plate of metal on the front and back, to make staking impossible? She could also wear metal neck armous to make beheading not an option.

I think that's the route we should go down anyway. She's more of a warrior than most vampires, and so she wears armour to protect her. Maybe she even has a full suit of armous for combat in daylight. We could really get some great descriptions of the armour too - make it all gothic and spiky rather than clean and shiny like the Knights of Byzantium.

In my episode its all about slayer dreams and the such, THEY CAN SEE IN EACHOTHERS DREAMS. Raven and Buffy and Faith will appear in the same dream, eps 1-3 dont use the "slayers in eachothers dreams" thing, except Neil who didnt touch on it, thanks guys!

It's a good idea, and it gives us something to play around with in later episodes, especially since Faith will be around too.

Apart from that, I can't think of anything else. I do like the armour idea though. Or maybe a vamped slayer would be able to walk around in sunlight? Except we'd need a reason why.

I just think that we really need to think of something that makes Raven special somehow. She's a slayer. She shouldn't be just another normal vampire.
