Witchlighter

**Witchlighters** are witches born with Whitelighter blood and genes, allowing them to manifest a variety of Whitelighter powers and calling.

The relationship between a witch and a whitelighter was originally forbidden by the Elders. For this reason, only a small number of Witchlighters exist, most of which are born within the Warren line of witches.

## History

The first of this breed seen in the series was Paige Matthews, the secret daughter of Patty Halliwell and Sam Wilder. To keep Paige's birth secret from the Elders, the couple brought her to a church, where a nun named Sister Agnes gave her to Mr. and Mrs. Matthews to be raised.

It was later revealed that one year before the birth of Paige, a Witchlighter was born in the Marks Line of Witches named Simon Marks. However, the details around his birth were never explained.

The third was Paige's nephew Wyatt Halliwell, who was born from the union of Piper Halliwell and her Whitelighter Leo Wyatt. He was ultimately one of the most powerful beings in existence due to being the Twice-Blessed Child. The two had a second son about a year afterward; Chris, who was also half-Whitelighter but not as powerful. Years later, Piper and Leo had a third child together, Melinda Halliwell, who was made into a Witchlighter by the Elders in an attempt to create a stronger Power of Three.

Syrus Halliwell-Trudeau, Prue and Andy's oldest son who inherited all of Prue's Witch genes and all of Andy's Whitelighter genes.

Paige's twin daughters, Tamora Halliwell-Mitchell and Katherine 'Kat' Halliwell-Mitchell, are also Witchlighters, however, their Wiccan active powers did not mix with their Whitelighter heritage except for them gaining Telekinetic Orbing, Remote Orbing, and their Orb Shield that they only use together.

Prescott "Scott" Halliwell-Trudeau, Prue and Andy's middle child who inherited all of Prue's Witch genes and all of Andy's Whitelighter genes.

Stiles Halliwell-Trudeau, Prue and Andy's youngest son who inherited all of Prue's Witch genes and all of Andy's Whitelighter genes.

Henry Jr., Paige and Henry's mortal son that they adopted who gained the power of cryokinesis when he was a baby, when magic was switched to mortals, and therefore when the natural order was restored, he lost it. However, when Paige realized that she wanted him to be protected and safe without making him feel week and would always need somebody from his adopted family to always be with him, Paige found enough courage to practically force the elders to help her give him Halliwell magic and active powers!

Piper and Leo will ultimately have a great grandson named Matthew Halliwell, who was also a Witchlighter, as seen in a flash forward. Which of their children is his parent is still unknown.
