ABILITIES/POWERS:
As a witch/whitelighter Paige possesses both magical abilities of a witch and a whitelighter (essentially an angel). Paige is also a special type of witch, known as a Charmed One. The Charmed Ones are three sister witches that are known as the most powerful witches to ever walk the earth. Due to Paige's dual wiccan and whitelighter heritage she also possesses more powers than her sisters do. Paige's magical abilities include:
BASIC WICCAN POWERS:
- scrying ( using a map and an object belonging to someone a witch uses this to locate an individual ) - potion making - spell casting
WICCAN POWERS:
- telekinetic orbing ( paige's manifestation of one of the charmed powers, telekinesis. by calling for an object paige can move it with her mind either to her, or direct it by movement of her hand ) - the power of three ( the collective term for the charmed ones group abilities. each power that the sisters has ( premonitions, molecular deceleration/freezing and telekinesis ) is one power of the three, passed down the warren witch line. although each of the charmed ones is a powerful witch herself they are their strongest when they work together, and their powers are weakened if they are in conflict with each other, and they lose their magic if their bond is broken. this said, paige alone can fight and battle demons, but for the strongest demons ( particularly when a power of three spell is needed ) all three sisters must say the spell together ) - high resistance ( a benefit of being a charmed one with the power of three is high resistance. as a powerful witch paige is hard to kill, particularly with the collective magic of the warren witches protecting her. alone, separated from that, paige's strength and magic will be lessened than if she were at home, and she will be easier to kill )
WHITELIGHTER POWERS:
- orbing ( an ability allowing paige to move from one location to another, across great distances, by thinking about it. those in contact with paige can also orb with her ) - remote orbing ( similar to orbing and telekinetic orbing, paige can orb an object or another individual to another location by thought or saying that location without having to orb with them ) - healing ( whitelighters, once they have found the trigger for the power, are able to heal others - innocents or witches, but not evil beings. the trigger for healing? love ) - hovering ( allows the user to raise a few feet in the air, similar to levitation, and remain in that position ) - glamouring ( allowing the individual to change appearance to another ) - sensing ( the ability to sense - or location - an individual anywhere in the world provided they are alive. it also does not work in the underworld ) - omnilingualism ( allows a whitelighter to understand any language that someone may be speaking without having learned it ) - cloaking ( the ability to render someone invisible from being sensed or seen by the person they are being hidden from ) - orb shield ( an advanced form of telekinetic orbing. a shield is created by the user ( like a bubble ) to defend them ) ← developed post-series in the comics and won't be applicable - photokinesis ( the ability to create or manipulate light in the form of orbs )
Although Paige's photokinesis, cloaking and hovering are not first used until a few episodes later, these are abilities that all whitelighters possess ( rather than develop like wiccan abilities ) and Charmed notes have stated that her healing power is the last power to develop ( as she needs to learn the trigger for it before she can use it ) in the series | paige's power development @ wikia
Character HISTORY:paige @ wikia Character PERSONALITY:
Paige is an incredibly caring person, someone with a large heart who would do anything to protect and help anyone that is in trouble. When Paige first discovered that she was a whitelighter (when she learned about magic), essentially a guardian angel, she also learned that it has always been a part of her, and according to Piper was the guiding force that made her become a social worker. Paige's heart is incredibly compassionate and she tries to see the best in people and wants to help them, although she can be rather quick to judge someone that gives her a 'bad vibe'. After quitting her job as a social worker in order to focus more on being a witch, Piper noted that it was as if a part of Paige's personality, her compassion in particular, had disappeared along with it as she had become so focused on wanting to vanquish the Siren. Realising that Piper is right Paige goes back to Melissa, the woman that she had been trying (and failing) to help and helped herself in the process, remembering that she was good at helping people (why she had become a social worker initially), and realising that she could be a whitelighter.
As well as compassionate Paige is also very passionate, particularly towards something that she believes in. Being wholly independent, particularly before meeting her sisters, Paige had to fight for herself and her own beliefs, and after meeting her sisters this was something that only intensified - particularly in the beginning when they all had to learn to mesh with a new sibling. Paige's passion worked well in her role first as a social worker and secondly as a protector of the innocent - Paige has a strong desire to protect others, and her passion and strong will allowed her to try and do this however possible (for example working extra hours, taking more time to look out for someone or, after becoming a witch, working harder to find a spell or locate a demon). After quitting her job as a social worker in order to spend more time bettering herself as a witch (especially without the conflict between mortal work and wiccan work) Paige was incredibly driven with regards to learning as much as she could, firstly so that she could help innocents as best as she could but also due to the fact that she had a lot of catching up to do with regards to her sisters knowledge, powers and skills. Paige's drive also extends towards others, or at least to wanting to help others better themselves. After Gideon (an Elder and the Headmaster of Magic School) was vanquished the other Elders wished to close magic school due to no one being there to run it. Paige fought against this, and strongly so, believing that all young witches should be able to have somewhere safe to learn and practice their craft, because she believed that it was important for that to be possible (especially after the struggle her and her sisters went through alone). Due to presenting the argument, and not allowing the Elders to refuse her proposal (she was strong minded about it), the Elders gave the task of running Magic School to her, because it was her idea. Although Paige was initially surprised by this and felt overwhelmed she took the task with grace, and although found it challenging (and still overwhelming) did her best with it, and found enjoyment from it (and being able to help other young witches).
Something that Paige prides herself on is her quirkiness, or as she's said "being weird". Paige's style, especially in her early twenties, is rather more unusual compared to her sisters (she prefers more flamboyant clothes, either in print or decoration/decorative style) and the same extends to her furniture choices (for example a chair that Piper hated). Because Paige is proud of being 'weird' (which makes her distinctive and memorable, certainly), she quickly find pride in being a witch, as it certainly isn't a normal thing. Paige's pride is a source of strength for her as it allows her to first feel comfortable as herself but also comfortable in her magical abilities, and helps her know that she can do what she does. Paige's quirkiness is also a part of her fun-loving self, as she is most at ease when she is enjoying herself, and in her youth used to be wilder and more of a party girl (helping somewhat with her quirky dress sense). Although Paige's quirky dress sense slowly lessens and is later gone as she matures, and her attitude mellows a little (showing her maturity and responsibility) she is still the same person at heart, loving to enjoy herself (at appropriate times) as well as enjoying the ability to share a joke, have fun with someone (especially to cheer them up), particularly if she hasn't been able to relax for a while. Paige is also not a fan of traditional methods or means, and although when she has to battle a demon she needs to refer to more traditional methods her spells and orbing can be a little non-conventional (with their rhyming or her orb calls, e.g. "icky stuff").
Although Paige at first may seem a little aloof and ditsy, she is responsible at heart - it can just be put off a little by her wish to enjoy herself. Before Paige found out about her sisters and the fact that she was a witch (and a Charmed One) her priorities were a little more skewed. Although she wished to become a social worker Paige was often late to work or late at doing something, leading to her being unable to progress (even though she did work hard) as her priorities weren't in line. After discovering that she is a witch, particularly after having her responsibility needs drilled into her by Piper (and seeing the dangers herself), Paige's priorities become a little more reorganised, and her work ethic at her job increases (and she is promoted to a social worker) and Paige attempts to juggle that along with being a successful witch, and manages to do so. Even though Paige manages to find (some) balance between her two worlds, she eventually quits her job, wishing to focus her responsibilities onto becoming a better witch, wanting to help and save innocents without being pulled by both worlds. Although she was sad to leave her job, as she had finally gotten where she'd wanted, Paige knew that what she was leaving it for was important - and she would still be able to do her social work, just in a slightly different manner (particularly after she began receiving charges as a whitelighter).
Paige is also an intelligent individual. Although it is uncertain as to whether Paige went to college or not, Paige works hard at her job and eventually progresses to the position of social worker, and is not shown to struggle with it. With regards to magic it shows its own challenges, but with the help of her sisters, Leo and her own studies (which after quitting her job she devotes a lot of time to); Paige shows to progress and does so quickly, managing to raise herself to a level almost with to that of two more knowledgeable sisters. Paige also manages to quickly come to grips with using her powers, and through practise and use against demons they grow, as she does, and her bond with her sisters and the new Power of Three. As Paige learns more about magic and herself, growing into her role as a witch, a sister and a Charmed One, Paige also grows herself. Her responsibilities and priorities become more obvious and Paige herself becomes a little more driven, trying to strive in the magical world, especially when there is a goal or an evil to be vanquished. Paige's creativity and imagination also expands with her new growth. Although Paige has always appreciated art and has been a little creative that has extended itself onto her magic, and often when calling for an object Paige will invent a name for it if there isn't one. She has also shown herself capable in spell writing and coming up with solutions to problems, including out of the box ideas - ideas which are often needed. Paige is also rather intuitive, partially due to her quick to judge nature (one example is that she took a quick disliking to Cole and believed him to be evil before it was revealed that he was). Paige is also incredibly stubborn, although given that her sisters also are this is also a shared Halliwell trait.

O-kay.
[ Paige sighed, this was a headache. This was more than a headache, she'd had big crazy headache things before and this was nothing like that ]
Well. I'd like to say that this was slightly new, and despite the ever so lovely explanation I actually had something important going on. [ ... ] Life type of important. Big kind of-
Never mind. My point is that I kind of need to get back to it. And yes, there's a job to do here but that's not my job. Okay? [ And now that sounds a little bit frantic ]
Did I mention I have a date tonight? A very important one? Because I do. So, if anyone could just show me the road out of here I would really appreciate it.
