뱀파이어 해결사 질문

Were the 이전 Slayers located on Hellmouths too?

We've seen flashbacks of 이전 Slayers living in New York and in China. Would there have been Hellmouths for them to guard there? Because otherwise, the 뱀파이어 and demons would have just gone to other places in the world, without anything to draw them to that particular area.

There are lots of Hellmouths within the buffyverse.

From wikipedia:

"Hellmouths are places of increased 수퍼내츄럴 energy. According to the mythology of the "Buffyverse", this is the area in which the barriers between dimensions are weak. The Hellmouth has a focal point, which serves as a portal between earth and Hell. For these reasons, the Hellmouth attracts demons and other 수퍼내츄럴 creatures, becoming a "hot spot" for 수퍼내츄럴 activity. The 텔레비전 series has confirmed that there are Hellmouths under Sunnydale, California and Cleveland, Ohio, as well as other unspecified cities around the world (cf. "Chosen")."

So it is possible that these past Slayers where guarding another "hot spot" for 수퍼내츄럴 activity.

Thanks for answering. I knew about the Cleveland one, it's mentioned twice. I was just wondering if there'd be reasons why the earlier Slayers were where they were. Perhaps the proximity of a Hellmouth could have affected who became Slayer in the past, too.

We will never know. I never assumed they were on hellmouths, though it would make sense. We know from episodes of buffy that there is another hellmouth in ohio. If I take what I know from the series, the slayer that Spike killed in china, was during a rebellion. Maybe the demons were drawn toward the conflict and violence, and the slayer followed. The other slayer that we know of, Nikki Wood, lived in New York, which is a high crime, high population area. I assume the 뱀파이어 would be drawn there because of the easy pickings.

Thanks for answering. The other factors are good points.

As it is seen in the show, when the Hellmouth becomes 더 많이 unstable, increasingly active as it is shown at several instances during the life of the show, "evil" becomes 더 많이 agitated if 당신 will. Season 7, the Hellmouth was bursting at the seems and the kids were practically ripping each other apart.

So demons, 뱀파이어 and other baddies roam the earth in the shadows and some like bugs to light eventually make their way to the Hellmouth and/or the Slayer gaurding it. Of course not all the bad guys have a profound interest in persuing either.

The 질문 at hand, based solely on the series, seems as such. Yes there are other Hellmouth's. I personally feel as though the Council nudged Buffy and Joyce to sunnydale somehow to guard the Hellmouth.

(I am actually watching one of my fav ep's right now, Passion. So if this is hard to follow, my apologies. lol)

Thanks for answering. Yeah, I'm pretty sure the Watcher's Council pulled some strings, made the high school there be the only one who'd accept Buffy, perhaps helped Joyce find a 우주 for her gallery too.
