The Charmed Ones

The Charmed Ones are the prophesized witches who are to help restore the balance of Good in the magical world. The prophecy calls for a sisterhood of three, who are the most powerful witches descended from the Warren Line.

The Original Charmed Ones
The Charmed Ones originated in 1998, with the sisters Prue, Piper, and Phoebe. Though the girls were prophesized to be the Charmed Ones, their powers were bound by their grandmother Penny during childhood. The sisters would fulfill their destiny with Penny's death in their twenties and recieve powers. While the Charmed Ones, the sisters were mostly occupied with fighting demons. protecting innocents, and avoiding exposure. Three years later, Prue Halliwell, would be killed by the demon Shax. Piper and Phoebe were under the impression that their run as the Power of Three was over, until they meet their half-sister, Paige Matthews.

The restored Power of Three, consisting of Piper, Phoebe, and Paige, went up against even more pressing demonic foes than the original Charmed Ones had. In their first few years as the Power of Three, the girls defeated the Source, the Triad, the Ultimate Power, and survived a number of exposure problems. Following their hectic battles with magic, the three sisters settled down with families. The girls all had three children. Piper had two sons and a daughter, Phoebe had three daughters, and Paige had twin daughters and a son. Despite their children, the sisters maintained their status as Charmed Ones and continued fighting demons on a regular basis.

Next Generation Charmed Ones
Nearly thirty years after the Power of Three was restored following Prue's death, Paige Matthews-Mitchell was killed in a demonic attack by darklighter arrows. Paige's death marked the end of Piper and Phoebe's run as the Power of Three, as without three sisters, they are no longer considered the Charmed Ones. While they retain Charmed powers, they are no longer the prophesized daughters.

Though no one was aware, the legacy passed down to the next set of three sisters in the Warren line, being Phoebe's daughters: Laura, Lila, and Lucy.
