Ampata Gutierrez

The Inca Princess, played by Ara Celi, is a character in the television series Buffy the Vampire Slayer.

After being sacrificed and mummified, the Inca Princess was discovered and shipped all over as a museum exhibit. After accidentally being awakened by Rodney Munson, she began draining the life out of students and finally was able to leave the museum.

She drained the life out of foreign exchange student Ampata Gutierrez and replaced him, staying with Buffy Summers. She hit it off immediately with Xander Harris, the two agreeing to go the the dance together. She learns that she cannot maintain her youth for long, having to drain students every few hours.

When Rupert Giles begins to piece together who she is at the museum, she confronts him and locks Buffy in her sarcophagus. When she goes to drain Willow Rosenberg, Xander interrupts her saying he'd have to go through him first. She cannot bring herself to drain him, instead choosing to revert back to a mummy. When Buffy pulled her off Xander, her mummified body shattered on the floor.
