31 Buffy The Vampire Slayer characters
27: Out Of Time
Taking how retro the Knights of Byzantium are a step further, the genre has a number of characters who actually are from other times. See Ichabod Crane in the very Angel-ish Sleepy Hollow TV series, and on the other side Holtz in Angel. They often return to the world in the present for a specific purpose, perhaps tied to a particular enemy coming back, or in “the time of greatest need” like King Arthur and lots of other national heroes. Expect fish out of water humour and commentary about how much has changed - and how much hasn’t.
Modern characters being sent back to the past might happen to the PCs for an episode or two. Coming from or going to the future is more sci-fi than fantasy, although I stole Days Of Future Past for The Watch House years before Supernatural did it too.
The Buffyverse can also fit people from fantasy-style dimensions like the Groosalugg in Angel, serial immortals, people possessed by ghosts, and to borrow an idea from Steve D again fictional characters brought into the real world.

Description: what even is that accent
Example quote: “Come oan, ye scunners! I’ll do ye one!”
Moira was the daughter of a clan chief trapped in a cursed hand mirror when she tried to kill a warlock attacking the clan in 1630s Scotland. The Scoobies found the mirror due to a poorly worded prophecy about it containing the way to defeat the warlock. Which is accurate as far as it goes, but they were thinking breaking it might break his power or something, not unleash a warrior with a four hundred year grudge.
