Piper Halliwell ,born the middle child, had been the mediator in Prue and Phoebe's fights. Piper, from the beginning had an "unlucky in love" storyline, as seen in the main love storyline of Seasons 1 to 3 with her and Leo. Piper was blessed with the power of temporal stasis or "freezing time". Piper worked as a chef and then manager of a restaurant "Quake" until the end of Season 1, when she quit and started her own nightclub in season 2, called "P3". In Season 3, Piper and Leo decided to get married, but Prue's astral projection form caused problems. Piper thought this was a sign and called off the wedding, even after getting the Elders' consent. In Season 4, she inherited the eldest sister role from Prue, continuing a new, stronger line of Halliwells. She is known for desiring a normal life, and finally married Leo. She developed the power of molecular combustion or blowing up objects. She could not be overwhelmed with demons because her molecular combustion power is extremely powerful. In Season 5, she gave birth to her first baby boy, Wyatt, and at the end of Season 6, baby Chris was welcomed into the world as well. Wyatt was feared to be the strongest source of magic. In Season 6, adult Chris visited from the future to stop Wyatt turning evil. During Season 6, Leo and Piper separated from each other because Leo became an Elder. During Season 7, Leo was tested to choose his destiny - whether he wanted to be an Elder or live powerless with Piper. Leo had been influenced by the Elders, but eventually had "fallen from grace" and became mortal to live with his family. At the end of Season 7, Leo and Piper are somewhat more happy together.

Phoebe Halliwell was the youngest child, until Paige was discovered, and was very free-spirited in discovering her powers. The show focused a lot on her, how she developed as a character and her occupation. She had been given the power of premonition or "seeing the future", since Prue had earlier said, 'She never looks towards the future...' In Season 2, Phoebe decided to leave unemployment to go back to college and complete her degree. She then achieved the ability to levitate and fly for short periods. During Season 3, Phoebe came in contact with an attorney, who, unbeknownst to her, was a half-demon named Cole Turner (Belthazar). Her love for him featured prominently in the show through Seasons 3 and 4, to the extent that she crossed to the dark side. She became the Queen of the Underworld for a short time and was carrying the 'Heir to the Source'. In Season 5, however, Phoebe left Cole, and eventually vanquished him. Cole would return in later episodes to try and revive his love with Phoebe, never successfully. Around Season 6, she developed a power that she couldn't control very well: empathy. Empathy is the ability to feel and hear emotions, often allowing control of others' powers. During a magical mission, Phoebe saved a columnist from a perilous situation. The columnist decided as a token of her appreciation to give her a job. Phoebe soon became a columnist for the column, later titled 'Ask Phoebe' at the 'Bay Mirror', and became very attracted to her new boss, Jason Dean - until she was possessed by Mata Hari, where she explained all the weird occurrences were because she was a witch. For this reason, they briefly separated from each other. She went on sabbatical for a short time and got a ghost writer to take her place, a man named Leslie, who she fell in love with. They were a short-lived couple and he had to leave on account of his temporary position. Her powers were stripped for a short period of time from the end of Season 6 to the beginning of Season 7 as a punishment for using her power and spells for personal gain. Phoebe had fallen in love with one of the teachers, Drake, at Magic School, but finds that her love won't last, for he is set to die within two weeks. She was single as the season ended. In Season 8, Phoebe is soon charmed by a worker at the Bay Mirror, Dex Lawson, who believes the real Phoebe Halliwell to be dead (who will be played by Sex and the City's Jason Lewis, previously was to be played by Extra host, Mark McGrath).

Prue was the eldest sister character in seasons one to three. She was romantically involved with Andy Trudeau in Season 1, but at the end of Season 1, he died saving her life. During the 1st Season, she had developed the power of telekinesis, which is the ability to move objects with her mind. She worked at Buckland's Auction House until halfway through Season 2, when she quit to become a photographer. She joined with the 415 magazine where she was one of the top photographers. Prue had soon gained the power of astral projection in Season 2, which is the ability to project a spectral form to a distant location, although Prue's version of Astral Projection was tangible (solid) and could touch things. Prue had trouble with the right balance of work and play right up until her death by the hands of the wind demon Shax (The Source's chief assassin) at the end of Season 3. Prue spent a lot of time and energy becoming a more powerful witch, referred to sometimes as the "superwitch" of the family. Prue was the one who took care of Phoebe and Piper after their mother dies when they were very little. After Prue died, Piper got the responsibility of being the oldest and the smartest sister. The power of three was destroyed, but was restored shortly after that when Piper and Phoebe found out they had another sister.

Patty, the girls' mother, had an affair with her Whitelighter, Sam, and gave birth to Paige Matthews. However, this had to be kept secret, so Sam and Patty took her to a church. There, Paige was given to the Matthews. Piper found Paige when she cast a spell to find a "lost witch". She attended Prue's funeral and reunited the Charmed Ones. Since Paige is half-witch/half-whitelighter, she is equipped with numerous powers. She has the ability to orb and call for objects (sometimes known as telekinetic orbing). She can also "glamour," which is the ability to change one's image. She was a social worker in Season 4, when many troubles occurred. When she first met Piper and Phoebe, she was attacked by the demon Shax who had killed Prue. She helped vanquish Shax (her first demon vanquished) and became a Charmed One. In Season 5, she decided to take a year off to pursue her destiny of being a witch. Paige was seriously romantically involved with fellow witch Richard Montana during her temp job in Season 6. The job was a magical one, with a feud between two families, escalating to cause many deaths. Richard Montana left because he went crazy with the use of magic. During Season 7, the Avatars came, and the late Agent Kyle Brody fell in love with Paige while he searched for them, mistakenly believing that the Avatars had killed his parents. He and an Avatar killed each other. He became a whitelighter, but not Paige's. Paige became headmistress of the Magic School when the position was vacated by Gideon, an Elder who, in his attempts to get rid of what he thought was a too-powerful baby Wyatt, was responsible for nearly turning him evil. Paige quit Magic School eventually, to concentrate on her Charmed duties and to help her newly-assigned Whitelighter charges.

At first, he worked surreptitiously at The Manor as a handyman. He was a WW II army medic when he was young and mortal. When he was killed in battle, he was transformed into a whitelighter (think: guardian angel... for witches). Now, he's Piper's husband and the Charmed one's whitelighter. He helps the sisters to kill the demons and can heal the sisters if needed. Leo and Piper are the parents of Wyatt and Christopher. After a crisis in which the Elders were under attack by the Greek Titans, Leo rose to the status of Elder, increasing his power greatly, including (this was not revealed until the end of Season 6) the ability to throw lightning, which every Elder seems to possess. Chris sent him to Valhalla, home to the Valkyries of Norse Mythology where Piper and the sisters saved him. He then (in Season 7) 'fell from grace' and is now a mortal.

Darryl Morris

Darryl Morris: portrayed by Dorian Gregory (1998-2005)

~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~

A lieutenant (promoted from inspector) in the San Francisco Police Department, he was once the partner of inspector Andy Trudeau. Darryl has a wife and two sons. Since finding out the sisters' secret, he has been of great help to them by covering up unsolved cases related to demonic activity. Recently, however, he fell out with them over the risks he takes. Darryl killed a mortal killer when he was possessed by a phantasm, but was spied on by Detective Sheridan. The Cleaners had made other people believe that he killed a person on purpose, and got him sent to death row. As Darryl was about to be executed, the Charmed Ones were able to stop Darryl from being killed, and make him believe that it was all a dream. Darryl has now stopped helping and covering for the Charmed Ones, as he had arrested Chris for stealing a car while trying to catch a demon. As of Season 8, Dorian Gregory has been dropped from the cast of Charmed due to budget cuts in the series. Although it is unknown how he will depart, it will probably be a transfer from the San Francisco Police Department.

Cole Turner was first sent by the Triad (who worked for the Source of all evil) after the Charmed Ones. Back then, he had an evil half known as the infamous demon "Belthazor". He fell in love with Phoebe, and instead of doing what he was asked to do, he murdered the Triad. In doing so, he betrayed the Source and turned his back on his own kind and all evil. After a while, the Charmed Ones discovered that he was Belthazor. Prue and Piper wanted to vanquish him, but Phoebe was unable to, having fallen deeply in love with him. She helped Cole fake his own death and he was able to escape. Phoebe lied to everyone by saying that she had vanquished Belthazor/Cole Turner. The Underworld even believed it, as Belthazor was believed dead. Eventually, Phoebe admitted to her sisters that she had let Cole go. Cole then reappeared, initially infuriating Phoebe, who still loved him but would not allow herself to. However, after Cole helped to stop Prue getting married to a warlock and after helping Prue save Phoebe's life, he managed to convince the sisters that he had turned away from evil. Cole then continued to assist the Charmed ones, proving to be a powerful ally. He even managed to weaken the Source significantly during a battle to save Piper's life. After his evil half demon Belthazor was accidently vanquished, he was mortal, and still helped the sisters with his knowledge of demons. He took the power of the Hollow, an energy which consumes magic, and helped the sisters kill the Source of all evil. He then let the Hollow out of him and back to its place. He was then possessed by the living evil spirit of the Source, and became evil, but never lost his love for Phoebe, who eventually got pregnant with the spawn of the evil Source, she went evil and married cole, became the Queen of the Underworld, but later gaved Cole a goodbye kiss and helped her sisters vanquish him as the Source. Cole was once again gone, but soon came back with his new powers. Phoebe then hated Cole, Cole went nuts and tried to kill himself, but learned that he was truly invincible. He then got more powers by an Avatar, and tried to undo the past so that he can be with Phoebe again, but Paige somehow managed to get into Cole`s plan. While Cole was trying to undo the past, he wasn`t invincible there, he was Belthazor (a powerful demon but not invincible), he was then once again, killed when Paige told Phoebe to throw the potion to kill Cole Turner. Cole was killed for good and never returned to the physical world again to date. He`s stuck in the cosmic void between life & death, where he is paying for his evil past. Piper knows about this due to events. But there is still great mystery about Cole, and it looks like he may come back one day.

Andy worked as an inspector for the San Francisco Police Department and was coincidentally assigned to almost every police case that involved the Halliwell sisters. He worked with Darryl. He was in love with Prue, but they broke up because she wouldn't tell him her secret. Eventually, Andy discovered the sisters' secret, and that they were responsible for saving so many people's lives.

The mortal next-door neighbor who was attracted to Piper Halliwell. He and his niece Jenny lived next door to the Halliwell Sisters. He used to play third base for the Seattle Mariners baseball team until he blew out his knee sliding home, then worked in construction. While Dan never discovered the sisters' secret, he noticed the oddity of the girls' lives and often suspected that they were hiding something. When Piper felt attracted to Dan, she decided to date him instead of Leo because the relationship seemed much less complicated. However, Piper's sudden disappearances and avoidance of his questions drove Dan crazy and made him feel insecure in their relationship. He also always felt threatened by Leo, because even though Piper did not see him often, he knew that they had been serious and that Piper still cared for him. Dan felt as though he was simply "geographically desirable" and that that was the basis of the entire relationship. Piper finally broke up with Dan after she realized that despite loving Dan, she loved Leo more. Dan also became very suspicious of Leo and even asked his brother who worked for the state department to check Leo's army records. When his brother discovered that Leo had been a soldier in World War II and had died in the war, Dan presented the information to Leo and finally to Piper. Dan moved away to Portland when he was offered a job there, deciding that it was time for him to get on with his life.

Introduced as a moody and mysterious whitelighter from the future, Chris became the sisters' new whitelighter after Leo became an Elder. But he clearly wasn't like other whitelighters: he could orb and sense his charges, but he couldn't heal. He eventually confessed that he was a half-witch, which explained why he couldn't be frozen and had telekinetic powers. But it still took a while for Leo and the sisters to fully trust Chris since his actions were often shady and he was so focused on killing demons. Eventually, everyone learned that Chris was Leo and Piper's second son. He had come back to identify and vanquish the one responsible for turning his brother Wyatt evil; he eventually achieved this with the help of his family. Chris resented Leo for not being there for him in the future but eventually reconciled with his father. The adult Chris was mortally wounded by Gideon while trying to protect infant Wyatt; he died in Leo's arms hours before Piper gave birth to him. Fortunately, Chris had set in motion a new future for himself and his family that may ultimately change his own destiny for the better.

Billie

Billie: portrayed by Kaley Cuoco (2005-)

~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~

Billie is introduced as a young witch paying more attention to demon fighting than to her education. Billie is set to become under the tutelage of the Charmed Ones and seems to help them on major problems, much as Chris did in Season 6. Billie has the power of telekinesis, alhough seemingly more advanced then Prue Halliwell's as she can use it to amplify her acrobatic abilities. Billie has been added to the opening credits which means it is safe to assume she will be in all of S8.

Recurring guest stars

Family

• Victor Bennett - The father of Prue, Piper, and Phoebe. He divorced the Charmed Ones' mother, Patricia Halliwell, when the girls were young, after learning his wife and daughters had supernatural powers. Victor wasn't present for much of the girls' lives; his eldest daughter Prue resented him for most of her life. He began building a relationship with his daughters after they rediscovered their powers in their 20s - by end of the third season he was on good terms with all three girls. He has also reconciled with Patty through conversations with her ghost (though he still doesn't get along with Grams's spirit). Victor travels a lot for work and only occasionally drops in for visits. In the future, he is apparently close to his grandson, Chris. He takes custody of both Wyatt and Chris when the Charmed Ones have to fake their deaths at the end of the seventh season. Tony Denison portrayed Victor for one episode, after which James Read took over the role.
• Patricia Halliwell: Finola Hughes - Mother of Prue, Piper, Phoebe, and Paige; daughter of Penelope. She was married to Victor Bennet and had an affair with her Whitelighter Sam (Paige's father). Patty kept her fourth pregnancy a secret since the Elders wouldn't approve and gave the baby up shortly after giving birth. Only her mother and lover knew about that child. Like Piper, Patty possessed the power of temporal stasis or freezing time, and she was briefly able to have premonitions while carrying Phoebe. She was killed by a water demon at Camp Skylark, but her spirit occasionally visits her children.
• Penelope Halliwell/"Grams" - Grandmother of Prue, Piper, Phoebe, and Paige; mother of Patricia. A powerful and no-nonsense woman, she possessed the power of telekinesis and added a great many potions to the Book of Shadows. She bound Prue, Piper, and Phoebe's powers when they were children to protect them from a warlock. After Patty died, Grams raised the three girls on her own and kept the secrets of their Charmed destiny and Paige's existance from them. She died of a heart attack six months before the series started but continues to watch over grandchildren (she flips the pages of the Book of Shadows in the early years).
• Wyatt Matthew Halliwell: Jason & Kristopher Simmons - Piper and Leo's first son. A prophecy foretold of the birth of a twice-blessed child of awesome power on a day when three planets aligned on a Wiccan sabbat during the Aurora Borealis. The legendary sword Excalibur is also destined to be wielded by this child. Early signs of Wyatt's power could be seen even before he was born as he was able to use magic from the womb. Since his birth, demons have repeatedly attempted to abduct him (in order to turn him evil) or kill him (out of fear of his awesome power). Fortunately, he's a powerful little guy who's perceptive enough to understand the danger he's in and defend himself. Some of his powers including healing, orbing, telekinetic orbing, conjuring, and shield generation. His name is a combination of his father's, Aunt Paige's, and mother's last names.

Friends, lovers, allies, and coworkers

• Agent Kyle Brody: Kerr Smith - A musterious federal agent who knows a lot about the supernatural world. Brody witnessed his parents' murder as a child and spend the majority of his life seeking vengeance against the beings he believed to be responsible for their deaths. Those beings were the Avatars, an ancient supernatural race determined to end the battle between Good and Evil by imposing their own order on the world. Brody is an ordinary mortal armed only with an ancient potion that supposedly kills Avatars. His search for these beings leads him to the Charmed Ones; he helps keep their secret in exchange for their help. While Piper, Phoebe, Leo, and Darryl are wary of Brody's extreme methods, Paige overlooks his obsession as she falls in love with him. Brody is killed while taking out one of the Avatars, only to return as a whitelighter to bid farewell to his beloved Paige.
• Jason Dean: Eric Dane - He was the new boss of 'The Bay Mirror', the newspaper Phoebe wrote advice for, and became Phoebe's boyfriend for over a year. Jason was very career-oriented, and Phoebe traveled all over the world with him, including living in Hong Kong for awhile. Phoebe was always working to keep her witch life a secret from him, and when he found out, he broke up with her.
• Drake Dèmon - Drake was a Mercury Demon who had never killed an innocent because his extensive readings had taught him about human feelings. Cole Turner's ghost directed him to a Sorceror who made him human for a year - the condition was that Drake had to renew Phoebe's faith in love before his year ended (at which point he'd die). Drake retained his demonic powers but would lose them to the Sorceror if he used them for evil. He worked briefly at the Magic School and fulfilled his promise to Cole before he died(falling for Phoebe in the process).
• Sheila Morris is the wife of Inspector Darryl Morris. Darryl told her about the Halliwells' secret about being witches, and she was able to cope and understand it, which brought a bit of shock to the Halliwell Sisters. Sheila was later told to never be around the Halliwell Sisters again, by Darryl, because she almost got killed while covering for him.
• Elder Odin: John de Lancie - A very powerful and uncompromising Whitelighter Elder.
• Elise Rothman is boss and editor at the Bay Mirror. She is hard and strict, but as the series progressed has become somewhat less so, especially towards Phoebe.
• Seer II: Charisma Carpenter - A clairvoiant demon who uses a large pool to show her visions to her visitors. She forsees the Avatar's ascendance and attempts to make a deal with the Charmed Ones to become mortal. She's vanquished by Zankou before she has the chance.
• Jack Sheridan: Lochlyn Munro - Jack worked alongside Prue Halliwell in Bucklands Auction House. A cocky, friendly, fun-loving man who is suprisingly competent at his job. He dates Prue until she quits Bucklands. He has an identical twin brother named Jeff.
• Leslie St. Claire: Nick Lachey - A ghostwriter hired to write Phoebe Halliwell's advice column at the beginning of the seventh season. Although Phoebe was shocked to learn that her ghostwriter was a man, she nonetheless finds herself in a romantic relationship with him for the six episodes during which he appeared.

Main adversaries

• Alpha the Avatar - First appeared in the season five episode "Sam I Am" and returned in "Centennial Charmed" (The 100th Episode). He wanted Cole Turner to become an Avatar, but it was too late when Cole got vanquished. He recently became a major recurring character. After he achieved his goal of getting The Charmed Ones and Leo to help get the world to become a "Utopia" where he and the other Avatars dictate everything that happens, he was soon forced to give up this world when the Charmed Ones (the greatest force of good) and Zankou (the leader of the demons) realized his plan and threatened him with death. His character is indirectly to blame for the deaths of Cole Turner and Kyle Brody.
• Barbas, the Demon of Fear - He appears in several chapters. He tries to kill the sisters, but in the 7th season, he helps the sisters to kill Gideon. Barbas first appears in Season 1 almost killing Prue and Phoebe, but was bannished back to the underworld. He reappeared in Season 2 with the help of a mortal man called Bane Jessop. Bane helped him because Barbas promised him wealth. Barbas appeared again in Season 6 to help Gideon kill Wyatt, but wasn't vanquished. In the first episode of Season 7, Leo hunted down Barbas and vanquished him because he tried to kill his son.
• Belthazor: The demonic half of Cole Turner. A very powerful, but not invincible, demon. Belthazor had the ability to throw energy balls, shimmer (teleport), telekenesis, etc. Belthazor had a red & black body, and was bigger & taller than his other half, Cole Turner. He was an infamous demon, with a big reputation of killing & causing harm. He was sent by the evil Triad (a group of evil who were later killed by Cole) after the Charmed Ones. He got weaker when Cole Turner fell in love with Phoebe, as Cole would eventually do less harm, and turn his back on the triad by killing them. Cole would then help the Charmed Ones a lot. And after a while, a woman would come to Cole Turner for revenge, she wanted to avenge the death of her fiancè (killed by Belthazor, back in time when he was truly evil), she wouldn`t stop until Belthazor is dead. She got her wish when she threw a potion (made by Phoebe) to kill Cole Turner`s evil half, Belthazor. Belthazor was gone, for good this time, but Cole Turner remained alive.
• Rex Buckland
• Gideon - One of the most powerful Elders, Gideon was entrusted with the position as headmaster of Magic School, an institution where young magical beings can learn about magic. While he originally pushed for the Elders to allow Piper and Leo to get married, once Wyatt was born, Gideon's attitude toward the couple changed drastically. He feared that all of the power that Wyatt possessed would cause him to turn and become an unstoppable threat. Gaining the sisters' confidence, Gideon used his position as a friend of family to get close to Wyatt but first hired a team of Darklighters to get Leo out of the way. He conspired with his evil counterpart in a parallel dimension, to distract both the good and evil Charmed Ones so that he might kill Wyatt. The sisters realized his plan in time and stopped him, but only temporarily. Conspiring with Barbas who used his powers to distract the sisters and Leo, Gideon managed to kidnap Wyatt, killing Chris in the process. Angered by his son's death, Leo tracked Gideon in the Underworld and killed him.
• The Seer I- A wise upper level demon who had served multiple Sources. She foresaw Cole becoming the new Source after the old one was to be vanquished by the Charmed Ones, thus beginning her plan to become the next Source after Cole. Her master plan was for Phoebe to become pregnant with the Source's baby, so when Cole/The Source was vanquished, she saw her opportunity in which the Seer took and implanted the baby into herself, thus becoming the new Source. She met her end when she tapped into all the baby's power trying to kill the Charmed Ones, but she ended up vanquishing herself and the Council.
• Inspector Sheridan: Jenya Lano - A mortal policewoman who's very suspicious of the Charmed Ones and a great threat in their attempts to remain unexposed to the non-magic community. When she got too close to discovering their secret, Agent Kyle Brody of Homeland Security tranquilized her and placed her comatose body in in a mental hospital. She was eventually released with no memory of the past few months, but her suspicions still lingered. Sheridan was killed by Zankou in the Halliwell home's attic during the Season 7 finale. It is unknown if she is related to Jack Sheridan.
• Source of All Evil - The (former) ruler of the underworld. He had a tattooed face that was partially mutilated when he seized power. Among his many demonic powers: throwing fireballs, flaming teleportation, manipulating flame, shape-shifting, summoning demons and evil beings, mind-control, possession, etc. He sent numerous demons after the Charmed Ones - his greatest victory came when Prue was killed by his assassin Shax. The Source renewed his war against the Charmed Ones after they were reconstituted; his obsessive pursuit of their deaths eventually lead to his own demise. However, his powers were absorbed by the mortal Cole Turner, who eventually succumbed to the evil within him and became the new Source of All Evil. Cole attained the full powers of the source in a ceremony that involved the Grimoire, the evil equivalent of the Book of Shadows. Cole was vanquished by the Charmed Ones soon after his reign began. His widow Phoebe was carrying the child of the Source, a being of pure evil that could control his mother from the womb. The unborn child was stolen by the Seer in her bid to become the new Source, but in the end both were vanquished for good by the Charmed Ones.
• Hannah Webster - Rex's lover and ally at Bucklands. A low level warlock with the power to make fire and transform into a panther. Hannah was not good at keeping her dislike of Prue a secret. She accidentally killed Rex when Prue him in front of her during one of Piper's freezes. Hannah was then pulled down into the Underworld and never heard from again.
• Zankou - A powerful demon that was an enemy of the Source of All Evil. The Source incarcerated him out of fear, most likely because Zankou was a demon that could match the Source in strength, and perhaps more. After the Source died for good and the threat from the Avatars neared, a group of demons freed him. He has the power to shoot waves of powerful energy, can regenerate when harmed, throw energy balls, shapeshift, sense things in ways no one else can, teleport in several ways, read and scan minds telepathy, has unlimited demonic power (like the Source), and can absorb the powers of whoever he kills as well as many more. He is intelligent and, unlike most demons, is more concerned with survival then a foolhardy ambition to fight in the war between good and evil. Zankou's attempts to gain full control over the Book of Shadows and the Shadow in the Nexus in order to get full control the Book of Shadows. He's vanquished when the Charmed Ones recited the spell to destroy the Nexus while its Shadow guardian was inside him.
