Inca Princess: 500 years ago the Incas chose a teenage girl to become their princess. They then buried her alive as a sacrifice to the Mountain God. A cursed seal was placed in her tomb, and once broken the mummy awoke! In order to stay alive, she drained the life force from those she kissed. See also Rodney Munsen, and Ampata.

Inhibitor: tiny device like a bug that Warren attached to Buffy. Caused her to experience time shifts. The Trio made it self-destruct as soon as Buffy discovered it.

Initiative, The: secret military operation run by the government, who had a hidden base beneath Lowell House. Headed by Professor Maggie Walsh, they recruited members of UC Sunnydale as secret soldiers. They planted secret cameras in the rooms of their recruits, and put experimental drugs in their food to make them faster and stronger. Its mission was to capture and experiment on demons and vampires. Spike was captured by The Initiative, but managed to escape. They named him Hostile Seventeen, and implanted a behavioural modification chip in his head. The Initiative’s real mission was Project 314.
