Harmony: Is it safe? Has Buffy gotten to you yet? I saw her patrolling just now ...with a stake! She won't give up until she's killed me to death!
Spike: Buffy's looking for you.
Harmony: Of course! That's why I'm on the lam. Didn't you hear? I'm totally her arch-nemesis!
Spike: Is that right. I must have missed the memo.
Harmony: There was a mem-? Spike, oh my god! This is like a real emergency!

Harmony Kendall was ostensibly Cordelia's best friend throughout high school - although perhaps "second in command" would be a more appropriate label for their relationship. Harmony was the archetypal bimbo: blonde, pretty, empty-headed, and only caring about her appearance and her dating status. She was too flaky for even Devon (a man who once declared that he didn't mind if his dates couldn't talk), and apparently often lied about having boyfriends. She always looked down on the Scooby Gang, and Cordy's close relationship with them. All this changed however, come graduation day. In order to stop the Mayor from devouring the entire class of 1999, the Scooby Gang enlisted the help of most of their fellow pupils, including Harmony. Perhaps the only brave act Harmony had ever done cost her dearly, as she was attacked and killed by a vampire henchman of the Mayor's. It was revealed in season 4 that Harmony had in fact been turned into a vampire, rather than simply left to die. She reappeared in Sunnydale dating Spike, whom she claimed to love. Spike, however, having neither love for anyone other than Dru, nor patience for Harmony's bimbo behavior, soon grew tired of her, and attempted to kill her. Although she survived - thanks to the Gem of Amarra - Spike abandoned her, returning only when, neutered by the Initiative, he desperately needed help and food. Harmony had at last had enough of his abuse by then, and turned him away; she then burnt his possessions. She returned in season 5, this time with a small and inept group of vampire followers and delusions of grandeur. After her gang turned on her and Buffy slaughtered most of them, Harmony fled back to Spike, asking him to keep her safe. Spike kept her around for sex for a while, before once again tiring of her and throwing her out. She is, presumably, still undead and at large.

Biography
[edit]
Character history
Harmony Kendall first appeared in the regular series in season one's "The Harvest", but actually starred in the unaired pilot, as a part of Cordelia Chase's clique, the "Cordettes". Making minor appearances throughout the first three seasons, she shunned Cordelia from their clique when Cordelia began dating Xander Harris. Harmony usurped Cordelia's old position and became the new leader of their group.

In season three's conclusion ("Graduation Day") Harmony was killed by a vampire. She reappeared in season four ("The Harsh Light of Day") as a vampire and girlfriend of Spike. She soon broke up with him over his obsession with Buffy. Despite her conversion to vampirism, she retained the pettiness characteristic of spoiled teenage girls, her lack of intelligence, her susceptibility to stronger-willed people, and a juvenile affection for unicorn figurines, which, by Season 5 of Angel, was still not diminished.

Spike's ambition to kill the Slayer apparently rubbed off: after separating from Spike, Harmony made her own attempt ("Real Me") which ended in disaster, with all her minions dusted. Harmony then returned to Spike for protection (though in fact the Slayer had no interest in pursuing her) until it became clear that Spike's infatuation with Buffy had become obsession ("Crush").

[edit]
Los Angeles
Harmony was next seen in the Buffy spinoff Angel, in that show's second-season "Disharmony". Harmony visited her old friend Cordelia in Los Angeles, not telling her she was a vampire, causing a little bit of trouble.

Several years later, Harmony gained employment at the L.A. branch of the evil law firm Wolfram and Hart, as a member of the secretarial pool. She joined in part due to the building's windows being outfitted with necro-tempered glass (which prevents vampires from being killed by sunlight), as well as the firm's non-judgmental workplace culture, as W&H management actually encouraged its employees to behave in an evil manner. A few weeks into her employment with the firm, in Angel's fifth season premiere, Wesley Wyndam-Pryce hired her out of the pool to be Angel's new personal secretary, after Angel and his staff (minus Cordelia, who had fallen into a coma at the end of the previous season) were given control of that branch of Wolfram and Hart. Angel reluctantly agreed, on the strict condition that Harmony refrain from killing and drinking human blood.

Harmony soon discovered that the other secretaries at the firm resented her quick rise to the position of the CEO's secretary. In the episode "Harm's Way", she was framed for murder by another vampire secretary who wanted her job, though Harmony was able to clear her name and stake her scheming rival with a pair of chopsticks.

During her tenure as Angel's secretary, Harmony was not only reunited with Cordelia, just prior to Cordy's death, but also with her ex-boyfriend Spike, though aside from a brief sexual encounter, neither of them put much effort into rekindling their relationship from Buffy. She also struck up a brief friendship with Winifred "Fred" Burkle, though her relationship with Illyria, the demon who inhabited Fred's body after her death, was quite frosty.

Harmony became a member of the regular cast starting with season five's "Underneath". In the series finale ("Not Fade Away") she betrayed Angel by telling his plans to Marcus Hamilton, the Senior Partners' new liaison, with whom she had a sexual relationship. When Angel discovered this, he fired her, but not before giving to her a letter of reference, perhaps indicating some measure of esteem for her secretarial skills or hope for her eventual redemption. As Angel and Hamilton prepared to fight each other, she ran off, wishing them both luck; her current whereabouts are unknown.

[edit]
Powers & Abilities
Harmony has the standard powers and vulnerabilities of a vampire: superhuman strength, speed, reflexes, and durability, along with virtual immortality. She is vulnerable to holy items and sunlight, and must regularly feed on mammal blood to maintain her vitality. She cannot enter the home of a living human without being invited by someone who lives there first.

In "Conviction", Harmony claimed that she could "type like a superhero". While this could have simply been a bit of hyperbole on her part, it is possible that the increased speed and stamina that she gained as a vampire, combined with adequate typing skills, could have pushed her typing speed to superhuman levels. If so, this is a unique ability that could certainly help Harmony's employment chances, if she chooses to continue being part of the office workforce.

Romantic Interests
Brad Konig. A popular boy who stood Harmony up in the tenth grade. She repays him by turning him into a vampire (seen in "Real Me").
Xander Harris, under the influence of a love spell ("Bewitched, Bothered and Bewildered").
Devon MacLeish, of the band Dingoes Ate My Baby. According to Oz, "Devon dated her for awhile, but she was too flaky for him, which, stop and marvel at the concept." ("The Harsh Light of Day")
Spike. Harmony and Spike were introduced as a couple in season four. The pair were not a natural couple, with Harmony's vacuous and shallow nature proving hugely irritating to Spike. However, their highly sexual but rocky relationship somehow continued (despite occassional and temporary break-ups) into season five, where they finally broke up and Harmony moved to L.A. The pair were reunited in season five of Angel but did not continue their relationship (except for a very brief fling).
Tobias "Toby" Dupree. See "Harm's Way".
Marcus Hamilton. Harmony and Hamilton had a secret relationship in season five of Angel, and she deliberately betrayed Angel by leaking his secrets to Hamilton.
