      well, angelus has a vampire form where his forehead is bulgy and so forth i've never really been interested in parsing "bob" and "vampire bob" as separate entities- to me, it's all just bob and angel's "that was angelus!" nonsense is just special pleading

      All vampires in Buffy have the forehead thing, it's an... interesting stylistic choice that has been picked up by no one and seems to come from nowhere. That's not the same as like the demon that was in the evil kid, that took physical form when exorcised

      yes, i agree, whatever demon component a vampire has doesn't (and probably can't) exist outside of/without the vampire host

      i still agree with ellie that "demons! souls!" are just a convenient metaphysical excuse to avoid thinking about this other question: what would the average american do if you gave them vampiric superpowers and a hunger for blood

      Food for thought (besides "BIT handled this better, so much better): Illyria/Fred. What happened there was basically like becoming a vampire except with a promise the soul was gone. And then the demon immediately became more human.

      Illyria was supposedly more sinister than any vampire demon, even Angelus. So how come they changed to be like Fred and vampire demons don't? My theory is, Illyria is one of the first real cases of a demon inhabiting a person we've seen. Maybe Angelus specifically is too

      My impression is that the "true form" of the demons that became vampires is the Turok-Han, the big scary "proto-vampires" who became the First Evil's army in the final season of Buffy

      Which are extremely physically powerful compared to vampires but also kind of dumb and driven by mindless aggression What we call "vampirism" was the Turok-Han becoming mystically bound to the human species, only able to exist by overlapping with a human and sharing their body

      There's that line where Illyria says she doesn't think of vampires as true demons but "parasites, half-human hybrids" It's not a *completely* unique idea - like the thing where Glory can't physically exist on her own, only as a form Ben shapeshifts into, which is her weakness

      That said, I don't think we should really read much into any analysis of how "demons" work as a whole By the end of Angel it's become pretty clear that "demon" is just a pejorative word like "alien" - all nonhuman sapient beings are "demons"

      Lorne's people who form the dominant species of the world of Pylea are obviously just an analogue of humans who play the same role that humans do in ours and he's only a "demon" because he doesn't belong in our dimension

          Just like the majority of demons we can see have biological bodies and a "true form" because, well, those are the ones we can see But I don't think that's really a rule either Notably, the Wolf, Ram and Hart are very prominent demons that have no body, at least not anymore
