Oz
(Seth Green)


Oz is a senior student at Sunnydale who plays guitar in a band called Dingoes Ate My Baby (a reference to the story of Lindy Chamberlain which was dramatised in the 1988 Meryl Streep movie 'A Cry In The Dark'). The band often plays at the Bronze, for example during the foreign exchange trip in Inca Mummy Girl, and at the Valentine's Day dance in Bewitched, Bothered and Bewildered

He first entered the orbit of Buffy and her friends when a mysterious computer company picked him and Willow as potential employees, during the school's career fair in What's My Line - Part 1. Willow and Oz became friends, their relationship slowly becoming more intense (even though Willow still has some feelings for Xander). Oz soon graduated to a fully-fledged member of Buffy's team, often supplying transport as well as pithy comments. After knocking about with Buffy and Willow for a while, Oz discovered that, like several members of his family, he is a werewolf! Every month, when there's a full moon Oz has to be locked into a cage in the library, so that he can't harm himself, or other people.
