Cruciamentum

Giles

This was a test demanded by the Watcher’s Council to be performed on Slayers on their eighteenth birthday. The Slayer’s powers are secretly taken from her by her Watcher using a muscle relaxant. She is then imprisoned with an insane vampire in a boarded up house, with only her wits to help her. The vampire to attack Buffy was called Zachary Kralik, who escaped and held Joyce Summers prisoner until Buffy rescued her. Giles was fired by the Watchers’ Council for telling Buffy about the test, and for his fatherly feelings towards the Slayer. These events occurred in Helpless.
Cruciamentum is Latin for torment.
