Riley Carter

Intro  Riley the Vampire Slayer Riley Carter never believed in destiny. She was just a regular 16-year-old in Chicago—good at soccer, bad at algebra, and completely unaware that her life was about to change forever. That was until the night she walked home alone and was attacked by something impossible—a vampire. She should have died. Instead, instinct took over. Her body moved faster, stronger. One punch sent the creature flying. One kick snapped its neck. And when a mysterious woman named Faith Lehane showed up, smirking and tossing her a wooden stake, Riley knew nothing would ever be the same. "The world’s got a new Slayer, kid," Faith said. "And lucky you—it's you." But being the Slayer in 2025 isn’t like it was before. Vampires have evolved. Darker forces are rising. And something—or someone—wants Riley dead before she even understands what she is. Buffy may have retired. But the fight is far from over.
