Notable powers
Spike has regular vampire powers,but he is more skilled in armed/unarmed combat.
Relationships:
Buffy Summers: Spike reluctantly becomes Buffy's ally during Seasons Two and Four, and in Season Five realizes he has fallen in love with her. Despite Buffy's initial repulsion at his feelings for her, she sees another side to him in "Intervention" and begins to regard him as an ally. In Season Six, they enter into a sexual relationship which ends badly, primarily because Spike seeks love and intimacy while Buffy merely wants physical comfort. After they break up, Spike tries to rape her, and this aborted attack becomes the catalyst which drives the remorseful Spike to regain his soul. When Buffy begins to trust him again, they develop a deep emotional closeness. Buffy also shows more than a bit of jealousy when she finds him bonding with Faith in "Dirty Girls". Spike continues to love her and his support of her, when all others abandon her, grants her the courage and strength to take the first step in destroying the Hellmouth. Shortly before the final showdown with The First, Buffy tells Angel that Spike would always be in her heart, and just before Spike dies in the Hellmouth to save the world, Buffy tells him that she loves him. Spike replies, "No you don't, but thanks for saying it". In the fifth and final season of Angel, Spike decides not to let Buffy know he has been resurrected because he wants her to remember him as a hero who died to save the world. He intended to meet up with her in Rome, where he and Angel are attempting to prevent a demon war, but their paths never quite crossed.
Xander Harris: Spike and Xander never really got along.from when spike first got frequent in episodes to the end of Buffy they always fought and never were friendly with eachother
Dawn/Joyce:Spike treats Buffy's mother Joyce with continuing (and uncharacteristic) affection, honoring her kindness to him even after she dies. Following his painful break-up with Drusilla, she offers him hot chocolate and a shoulder to cry on[11], and they later bond over their mutual love of Passions in the episode "Checkpoint". While discussing his character's relationship with Joyce, James Marsters laughs, "Well, Spike, just maybe he just needs a mom. Maybe sometimes he just needs some chocolate milk and a little mom's love."[10] Spike's relationship with Buffy's sister Dawn is that of a big brother/father figure. He continues to care for his "lil' bit" after Buffy's death, which, according to Marti Noxon in her commentary for "Bargaining", assured, and convinced, many fans that he was genuinely good.
Tara Maclay (Deceased): Spike and Tara never REALLY got to know eachother.
Willow Rosenberg: Spike confesses his attraction to Willow in episode "The Initiative", offering to sire her rather than simply kill her ("I can let you stay dead... or... bring you back, to be like me."). When Spike becomes an ally to the Scoobies, their relationship remains more or less friendly, with Spike inferring for himself that Willow is gay. Willow often defends Spike against angry prejudices of other Scoobies (mostly Xander's and Buffy's). Spike, on his part, is highly respectful of Willow's power as a witch, as well the depth of her love for her girlfriend Tara; following Glory's attack on Tara in "Tough Love", he asks Buffy "So you're saying that... a powerful and mightily pissed-off witch... was plannin' on going and spillin' herself a few pints of god blood until you, what, 'explained'?" He also shows a sincere preoccupation about her ever-growing addiction to magic, intervening slightly on her behalf in a confrontation with Anya (cf. "Older and Far Away"). Spike calls Willow "Red", usually in a fond way.
Dru:While vampires in the Buffyverse, as souless beings are incapable of genuine love, they are certainly capable of intense attachment, passion and loyalty. For example, Spike and Dru are a devoted couple for over a century. They spend their time traveling, feeding, and enjoying themselves. While Spike is single-mindedly devoted to her, Dru is never consistently faithful (maintaining a sexual relationship with Angelus despite Spike's obvious jealousy and discomfort, and, along with Darla, fornicating with the Immortal). She becomes disillusioned with Spike after his betrayal of Angelus, and she perceives his growing feelings for Buffy, and cheats on him with a Chaos Demon ("All slime and antlers!") in South America before breaking up with him, which sends him into a deep depression.[11] By the time Drusilla returns to Sunnydale to reclaim her former love, Spike attempts to stake her to prove his love for Buffy, but Buffy tells him it would prove nothing and Spike cannot go through with it. Drusilla is disappointed at Spike's actions and departs from him.
Biography:
Spike, also known as William the Bloody, got his nickname due to his penchant for torturing victims with railroad spikes. However, his William the Bloody nickname has less glamorous origins — it turns out that he had the name before his vampire days, as a result of his "bloody awful poetry." William wasn't always a bad boy — prior to being vamped, he was a shy, sensitive, aspiring poet. After getting shot down by the girl who inspired his poetry, he was killed and then sired by Drusilla. Drusilla, of course, was the love of his un-life, until she left him — twice: first for a Chaos demon and then for a Fungus demon. Only 120 years old (using the most recent evidence, "Fool For Love"), Spike has already killed two Slayers. He tried multiple times to kill Buffy, but to no avail (but then again, she didn't kill him either). After being gone for all but one episode of season three ("Lovers Walk"), Spike became a regular in season four, and didn't have better luck in Sunnydale the second time around — thanks to the Initiative, he got a chip implanted in his head which renders him unable to kill or hurt anything other than another demon (which he does, leaving him unpopular in the demon world). Much to his chagrin, he then developed a major crush on the Slayer herself. This crush led him to reject both Drusilla and Harmony in favor of the non-reciprocating Buffy, and to have a Buffy sex-robot built to allow him to fulfill his kinky fantasies. Unfortunately for Spike, the real Buffy discovered the robot and took it from him. The combination of the chip and his love for Buffy seemed to have a positive effect on Spike, who became a helpful ally to the Scooby Gang. During Season 6, after Buffy came back from the dead emotionally screwed up, she began a secretive sexual (and violent) relationship with Spike. After she ended it, he tried to initiate sex with her again, and ended up attempting to rape her. Horrified, he went to Africa to get his soul back, which now appears to be driving him somewhat insane.
