Lurconis

Lurconis was a giant snake-like demon that appeared as an antagonist in the Buffy the Vampire Slayer episode "Band Candy" and was a major force in keeping Mayor Wilkins in power.

History

Lurconis (whose name translates into "glutton") was an ancient demon that surfaced every thirty years from its home deep within the sewers of Sunnydale, each time it surfaced the demon was given a ritualistic sacrifice of human infants: which the demon would devour.

However when Mayor Wilkins and a gang of vampiric minions planned on performing this sacrifice in modern Sunnydale their plan was uncovered and foiled by Buffy, who proceeded to kill Lurconis by setting the demon on fire using a broken gas pipe.
