Ethan Rayne is a character in the Buffy the Vampire Slayer television series. He first appeared in the second season episode "Halloween". Portrayed by the British actor Robin Sachs, he was introduced as a charming English gentleman who owns a costume shop, but is later revealed as an old friend, and later enemy, of Rupert Giles from his "Ripper" days of dark arts. Giles went on to become a watcher after the death of another friend as a result of a ritual gone wrong, but parted ways with his old accomplice when Ethan started to worship Chaos.
Ethan went on to appear in the episodes "The Dark Age", "Band Candy", and finally "A New Man", where he was last seen being led away by a special section of the military that deals with the supernatural, after he turned Rupert into a Fyarl demon.
For a character who only appears in four episodes, Ethan gained a large and loyal fanbase. More can be found at the site listed below.
