Summoned - Background

A BtVS/Tanya Huff "Keeper" series crossover.

The Background

This Alternate Universe

How AU is this really?

• It's a Buffy/Willow shipper fic (more ship than slash)
• BtVS Season 7 doesn't happen as written, if at all:
  • The First doesn't show up in Sunnydale
  • The whole "Beneath you It devours" thing doesn't happen.
  • No Spike in Sunnydale - no one knows where he is.
  • Hellmouth High is rebuilt as we see it in Season 7 and Dawn's first day there mostly resembled the start of Season 7 (So we can have Kit and Carlos as Dawn-friends if I need to use them. Not sure about Robin Wood yet.). But no Spike.

• The Buffyverse canon-clock stops there more or less - so anything on Angel that occurred during Seasons 4 and 5 also doesn't happen.
• The Council of Watchers has changed - details as the story progresses. They aren't evil, just misunderstood.
• The differences between "Keeper" style vampires and werewolves and BtVS vampires and werewolves MIGHT be explained but they will be acknowledged at some point. They won't really be relevant to the story.
