Forrest Gates (Demon)

Forrest Gates's History

Reanimation

With Forrest's death, his body was taken by Adam, who transformed Forrest into a bio-mechanical demonoid like himself. The procedure replaced most of Forrest's body — save for most of his face and his left arm — with that of a spotted, clawed reptilian demon and minor cybernetic enhancements. Unlike Adam, however, Forrest was not powered by a uranium 235 core.

In his new condition, Forrest looked forward to fight and kill Buffy. He also looked forward for Riley to be transformed into a fellow mechanical demonoid. Under Adam's orders, Forrest tried to decapitate Spike, who had demanded for his chip to be removed even though the vampire had failed to lure Buffy to the Initiative facilities alone. However, Spike managed to escape after jabbing Forrest in the eye with a lit cigarette.

Forrest attacked Buffy once the Slayer appeared at Adam's secret lab to rescue Riley. Riley managed to remove the behavior modifier from his shoulder and aided Buffy, and she left him to confront Adam. Riley remained to fight his former friend. Though Forrest easily outmatched Riley, Forrest eventually met his end when he hoisted a gas canister over his head, which caught a live wire and blew him to pieces.
