The Seer

**The Seer** was an upper-level demon with the power to see the future, as well as a temporary surrogate mother of Colvin, the Source's Heir.

As revealed by the Book of Shadows, she was thousands of years old and had served numerous Sources. After the Oracle was vanquished by Cole Turner, she served as the primary adviser to the Source of the generation of the Charmed Ones.

It was gradually revealed that the Seer was a devious and manipulative woman with her own nefarious plans, and her numerous powers (such as premonition and immunity to spells and charms) make her a dangerous enemy that could only be vanquished by the Power of Three. It's been said that the Blessed Power of Three is exceptionally more powerful than the Charmed Ones' Power of Three; this means the Blessed Ones could easily vanquish the Seer.

## History

### Early Life

*Click a link to head to Charmed Wiki to read about these important events in The Seer's life*.

#### Stealing The Source's Heir

After Cole Turner was vanquished, the Seer stole Phoebe's unborn child - the heir of the Source of All Evil, and transferred it into her body by use of a spell. She told Phoebe that the child was never hers nor Cole's, but that it was hers since the moment of conception. The Seer then called the Council and became the new Source.

She was vanquished soon after when she attempted to kill the Charmed Ones, as she could not handle all of the baby's power. As the Seer threw fire at them, the sisters chanted the Power of Three spell, which created a protective shield around the cage. When the child's power overwhelmed the Seer, she vanquished herself and all demons present.

### Throughout *Blessed*

#### Seen Through His Eyes

In "*The Sins of the Parents*", Colvin, the heir who is revealed as having survived the supposed vanquish in 2002, causes his older step-brother, Pip Muniz-Halliwell, to faint and makes him see the former's past while unconscious. One of the main figures who Pip sees in the dream visions is the Seer; the first appearance she has in in the dream visions is from 2002 when she appeared nearby Cole and Phoebe's dark wedding and she said "*It is done*."

The second appearance she has in the dream visions is also from 2002 when she performed a fertility ritual, with Cole beside her, to make Phoebe Halliwell fertile to demonic seed. She mixed the tonic with Phoebe's favorite sweet.

The third appearance she has in the dream visions in when she is seen in a darker version of a dream that Phoebe Halliwell had in 2002, where she is stealing Phoebe Halliwell's child (Colvin) when he is born as the witch is surrounded by her protective loved ones.

The fourth and final appearance she has in the dream visions is from 2002 when she has just become the Source and has trapped the Charmed Ones in her cage. The Seer goes to kill them but the power of the heir overwhelms her, vanquishing her and all the demons in the cave with her.

## Notes and Trivia

* The Seer has a friend who works with wind. When Phoebe as the Queen of the Underworld wanted the storm outside the penthouse to stop, the Seer said her friend was out of town.
* The drawing of the Seer in the Book of Shadows is based on her promotional picture. This promotional picture was a cropped version of the picture with Alyssa Milano from *Charmed* episode: "Marry-Go-Round". *(see picture)*
* Although The Seer had the power to see the future, she did not foresee her own death such as Seer Kira did.
* Every Seer in the series can be explained as wise, but can also be explained as distrusted and disliked by their own kind. The Half-Faced Source's trust of The Seer is what also led to his demise.
* It is possible that the Seer had an actual name like Kira, who was a demonic seer and was also known as "The Seer", until she wanted to become human and revealed her actual name.
