Cordelia

Who is Cordelia?

This is not the limit to her character though. Cordelia knew what she wanted in life and was determined to get it. One of the things she seems to be seeking most is acceptance. While a strong and secure young woman, she at times needs help with her self-confidence. It seems at times that this inner core of steel is the only thing that has gotten her through her life. While her parents had money, it doesn't seem as if they gave her much else. Her friends, like Harmony, were quick to turn on her if she did something they of which they didn't approve.

Her catty comebacks and biting remarks were as much a defense as Faith's... besides, who wouldn't like to pick on Xander occasionally. Yes, she seems shallow and bitchy, even prides herself on these qualitites, but it is obvious that even if this was once her true character, it is no longer. This little girl is all grown up, fighting to make her mark, prove something to herself, and like Angel, looking for her own road to redemption.
