Veruca

Veruca, played by Paige Moss, is a character in the television series Buffy the Vampire Slayer.

Veruca appeared in the episodes "Living Conditions", "Beer Bad" and "Wild at Heart". Like Daniel "Oz" Osbourne, she is a musician and a werewolf. Oz finds himself incredibly attracted to Veruca, who tries to bring him into her philosophy of embracing the werewolf within and succumbing to its desires.

As a werewolf, Oz breaks free from his cage and mates with Veruca, and later they do so again. Oz's girlfriend Willow Rosenberg finds out about the betrayal and is heartbroken, and Veruca targets Willow with the intention of killing her; she believes Willow prevents Oz from reaching his potential. Oz however, in his werewolf form, protects Willow and tears out Veruca's throat. Oz leaves Sunnydale following Veruca's death to find a cure for his condition.
