"Welcome to the most prestigious and exclusive sorority ever at Metropolis University. We are the richest. We are the prettiest. We are the best. Over the next few days, many of you will be disappointed, but if you are insanely cool and very, very lucky, you might just be chosen to be a Tri Psi and if that happens, it'll change your life forever." - Buffy Sanders, to Tri-Psi pledges, Thirst
Buffy Sanders was the vampiric president of the Tri-Psi sorority at Metropolis University. She is probably a homage to Buffy Summers, the vampire slayer.

[edit] Early Life
She defined the sorority as the best on campus, with the richest and prettiest girls. Buffy was a victim of cave bats that were exposed to kryptonite, and became a vampiric mutant.
[edit] Season Five
Lana was forced to pledge Tri-Psi in order to find housing, since she had been accepted to Metropolis University so late. However, after she was accepted, Buffy revealed to her that the sorority sisters were actually vampires, and turned Lana into a vampire by cutting her own tongue and making Lana drink her blood. While doing some digging for her story for Pauline Kahn, Chloe discovered that none of the girls who joined Tri-Psi left after joining and also that a Smallville girl, Buffy Sanders, had been trapped in a cave full of bats and was rescued by LuthorCorp. When Clark later talked to Lex about this, he revealed that Kryptonite had been in the cave walls, mutating all animal and plant life in the cave. In the case of the bats, they had been turned into vampire bats and bitten Buffy, who was infected with a strange strain of rabies that turned her into a vampire.
Later, Chloe and Clark attended a Tri-Psi Halloween party to find Lana, who was caught by Chloe dancing a little too close with another guy. She confronted Lana about this, and Lana bit her, but Clark came to her rescue. Buffy saw that Clark had seen Lana bite into Chloe, and threatened to have the sorority feed on Lana unless she brought Clark back to them as a meal. Lana succeeded in doing this by biting into Clark while he was visiting Lex, and in the process gained his heat vision. Later, when the sorority sisters were about to feed on Clark, Lana stopped them, saying that he was not a normal guy. This angered Buffy, who faced off with Lana, but Lana promptly incinerated her with a blast of heat vision.
[edit] Powers and Abilities
The vampire powers demonstrated include superhuman strength and rapid healing. These abilities could be passed to others by the sharing of blood.
[edit] Notes
- Buffy Sanders is made to be a parody of Buffy the Vampire Slayer's name, Buffy and her best friend Xander.
- "Buffy Sanders" is not her real name; in Chloe's article describing the Tri-Psi sorority, she mentions that she has "changed the names to protect the vapid".
- Also relating to Buffy the Vampire Slayer, James Marsters plays a part in the episode as Clark's professor. While Chloe is in the hospital he stops by stating that "vampires are not real" making it ironic because of the fact he played Spike (the evilest vampire--second only to Angelus--who later turns good when his soul is revived) on Buffy the Vampire Slayer.
