Cyvus Vail

Played by Dennis Christopher

INFORMATION

An ancient and powerful warlock, Cyvus Vail was as cunning as he was ruthless. As a master of dark magic, he shaped realities and rewrote destinies, most famously crafting the false memories that made Connor, Angel’s son, believe he had lived a normal life. Vail operated from the shadows, pulling strings in the service of Wolfram & Hart while cultivating alliances with some of the most dangerous players in the supernatural world. Despite his frail appearance, his intellect and magical prowess made him a formidable opponent. It was his ambition, however, that ultimately led to his downfall, as Wesley Wyndam-Pryce delivered justice in the form of cold steel. Even in death, Cyvus Vail’s legacy endures as a reminder of the cost of tampering with the threads of fate.

APPEARANCES: ANGEL SEASON FIVE

Welcome to The Watcher’s Guide, a resource, quite fittingly, back from the dead!

The original website shut down in 2004, following the cancellation of Angel. Now with a new show set in the BuffyVerse eagerly anticipated by fans old and new and featuring the return of Sarah Michelle Gellar as Buffy, it’s time to spruce up The Watcher’s Guide for a new generation.

All the episodes have been added, along with notes, biographies and continuity references. But as always, one question remains… Where Do We Go From Here?
