The enjoining spell is a ritual which calls upon the spirit of the First Slayer to combine the essences and abilities of several individuals into a vessel or the "hand". After this spell was performed, Buffy possessed enhanced Slayer powers, Willow's magic, Giles' knowledge of foreign languages, and Xander's strength. Her eyes and voice were altered as well. "The enjoining spell is extremely touchy. It's, uh, volatile. We-we can't risk it being interrupted." ―Giles describes the dangers of the spell.

"The enjoining spell is extremely touchy. It's, uh, volatile. We-we can't risk it being interrupted." ―Giles describes the dangers of the spell. The core four members of the Scooby Gang—Buffy Summers, Xander Harris, Willow Rosenberg, and Rupert Giles—performed the spell in 2000 to defeat the bio-mechanical demonoid Adam. Xander unwittingly inspired the use of the spell by suggesting that they needed to combine their respective talents into one (Willow wanted to cast a spell on Adam, but only Giles knew how to pronounce the spell's wording correctly) causing Giles to remember that such a ritual existed. The spell required the use of cards, candles and a mystical gourd. "The power of the Slayer and all who wield it.Last to ancient first, we invoke thee.Grant us thy domain and primal strength.Accept us and the power we possess.Make us mind and heart and spirit enjoined.Let the hand encompass us. Do thy will.By the generous will of the Ancients, the almighty power of the Divine Spirits…Your supplicants humbly beseech thee to behold us, and that which we possess…the moieties of the One, the Avatar…Spiritus... spirit.Animus... heart.Sophus... mind.And Manus... the hand.We enjoin that we may inhabit the vessel, the hand...daughter of Sineya...first of the ones...We implore thee: Admit usbring us to the vessel !Take us now !We are heart...We are mind...We are spirit...From the raging storm...We bring the power of the Primeval One..." ―The enjoining spell The four performed the spell in the underground Initiative facility. Willow acted as the spirit, Xander as the heart, Giles as the mind, and Buffy as the hand. With the voices of all four speaking through the body, it sounded out loud as a mix of Buffy's and an echoing of Sineya's voice.
