Connor was born to two vampires, Darla and Angel. Legend always said that this could never happen but it did! Because Darla was in fact a vampire her body could not deliver the baby and the only way to save her unborn child was to actually stake herself. Which she did, leaving Angel holding his son in the pouring rain with Holtz ready for revenge.

Connor started off life well in the hotel with Angel and the other guys but it was painfully obvious that it was not meant to be for father and son. Holtz, who hated Angel for taking away his family, kidnapped Connor and jumped through a portal into the Hell dimension called Quortoth. Angel searched for weeks to try and get his son back but to no avail..

The Destroyer. This is what Connor was known as in his dimension. He grew up knowing that Angel was his father but Holtz turned him against Angel revealing his sordid past. When Connor returned they ultimately came to blows. Connor pretended to be Angel's friend and the son he always wanted, while he still carried on seeing Holtz and plotting against Angel. Holtz in his final scenes made Justine kill him with an ice pick, making two puncture wounds to make Connor think that Angel had killed him.

Connor then recruited Justine to help him take his revenge on Angel. They captured him by the sea while he was waiting to tell Cordelia that he loved her. They enclosed him into a metal coffin and welded the side’s air tight shut and then preceded to push the coffin off the boat into the sea. Leaving Angel at the bottom of the sea, Connor returned to the Hotel.

4 months pass. Connor has helped Fred and Gunn fight and try to find Angel and Cordelia, Knowing all a long where Angel was. Wesley finally found out through Justine and brought Angel back up to the surface.

Once back at the hotel Angel sat Connor down and straight talked him. What he had done was unbelievable and to his own father! Connor was told that he was loved and then swiftly kicked out of the hotel onto the streets to fend for himself. But then that isn’t that hard to do when both your parents are vampires.

Connor has many hidden talents, he is a great fighter and warrior. He also has the trait of vampire hearing even though he is basically human. There is something obviously in store for Connor, time will only tell what.

Connor has been through a lot in the short time he has been with Angel and the ultimate price is paid when he puts his trust in Jasmine a demon who is out to take over the world, Connor knows what she is yet betrays his father and friends to give her the best chance to do what she will, however this back fires and Angel destroys her spell on everyone and they see her true self. They flee destroying everything and everyone in their path, Connor is left feeling empty and alone after he kills her in front of his father.

Angel makes the sacrifice to save Connor all the pain of being the son of a Vampire and with the help of Wolfram and Hart places him with the family he has always wanted, he will never remember his past life and will never remember Angel. This concludes Connors place with the team and he is left to be happy with his new family.

Will he return? That one is everyone's guess, but he will be sadly missed by myself and other fans....



Connor: Killing is too good for you. You get to live...forever.
