1753

1753 (MDCCLIII) is the fifty-third year of the 18th century. It follows 1752 and takes place prior to 1754. In the "Buffyverse" continuity, this year played a major role in the life of one important character. A young man named Liam from Galway, Ireland existed as a shiftless drunkard, wandering from tavern to tavern, looking to spend his father's money. One evening, after engaging in such revelry, he met a comely lass named Darla. Liam was taken in by her, and she promised to "show him the world". It was an offer Liam quickly accepted. Darla revealed herself as a vampire and bit Liam upon the throat, drinking his blood near to the point of death. She then cut open her own bosom and allowed Liam to drink from her, thus transforming him into a vampire. As years passed, Liam became one of the most dangerous and murderous scourges in all of Europe and took the name Angelus. In time, this name became shortened to Angel.
