**Paige Matthews** is the youngest sister of the Charmed Ones. She is the wife of Henry Mitchell and the mother of their children, Tamora and Kat Mitchell, and their adopted son Henry Junior. Paige was adopted by *Mr. and Mrs. Matthews* after she was left at a local church shortly after her birth. She met her half-sisters, Piper and Phoebe Halliwell, in 2001 after the death of her eldest sister Prudence Halliwell. She finally meets Prue in "Happy Birthday Pip! You're A Witch!".

As the daughter of a witch and a Whitelighter, Paige is the Charmed One with the most powers, despite being the youngest and last sister to come into her Charmed legacy. Her powers include telekinetic orbing, orbing, healing, and the ability to produce light. Additionally, she also possesses the basic powers of a witch: The ability to cast spells, brew potions, scry for lost objects or people, divine for information and see and communicate with spirits along with other typical Whitelighter-powers. Furthermore, Paige can access The Power of Three, the collective power of the Charmed Ones that enhances their powers.

Besides her duties as a Charmed One, Paige is a full-time Whitelighter, and works as a recruiter for Magic School.

Paige is a member of the Halliwell, Warren, Mitchell and Matthews Family.

## Personality

Paige is very similar to her deceased oldest sister, Prudence Halliwell, in terms of personality. She is stubborn, strong-willed, and has issues with her (biological) father. One of Paige's main personality traits and something that she struggled with after becoming *Charmed* was her independence. For over 20 years, Paige went through life as an only child and attempted to retain her independence after finding her sisters, though she still loved them and considered them a blessing to her even if she sometimes had little disagreements with Piper because of how different they are much like Prue and Phoebe had.

During her teens, Paige was a rebel like her older sister Phoebe. She used to smoke and at one time was an alcoholic. However, she matured heavily when both her adoptive parents died in a car accident.

With Whitelighter blood inside of her, Paige has an inherent need and ability to help others, which led her to wanting to become a social worker.

Paige is not one for tradition or mainstream things. She prides herself on what she calls her "weirdness", and usually desires for her love interests to be "weird" as well. Paige also takes pride in being a witch, and wants to be with men who fully accept her heritage.

* Paige is also the only Whitelighter-Witch hybrid that hasn't displayed regular telekinesis.
* Paige is claustrophobic.
* Out of all sisters, Paige has the most powers due to her Whitelighter side. Out of all witches of the Warren Line, she has the second most powers, the first being her second-oldest nephew, Wyatt Halliwell.
* Paige seems to have a good intuition. and is an excellent Tarot reader.

* Both Paige and Phoebe's past lives were evil.
* Paige's past life isn't connected to the Warren Line of witches. However, she does have an entry in the Warren Book of Shadows.
* Paige is the only sister who hasn't traveled to the future, only to the past.
* Paige is the only sister who was never seen as a child, only as a baby, teenager, and adult.
* Ever since she found out one of her ex-boyfriends was married, Paige would often ask her many boyfriends after him if they were married, including *Kyle Brody* and her husband, Henry Mitchell.
* It has never been explained why Paige never inherited her Wiccan powers before meeting her sisters.
	+ One possible theory is likely to be caused by the prophecy of the Charmed Ones, which only foretold the existence of three sisters instead of four, and subsequently somehow stripped her affinity to witchcraft. This theory explains why she had to touch her sisters to be able to recreate the Power of Three and awaken her powers; it would also explain the reason she received the power of telekinesis, because Prue was the one who had it, and with her death, the witch with this power was lost. This also theorizes that if Piper or Phoebe had been the one who died, Paige would have received one of their powers instead.
	+ Another theory is that Grams bound Paige's powers at infancy for protection like she did with Prue, Piper, and Phoebe.
* In the *Charmed* episode "Charmed Again, Part 2", Paige was shown to own a pet bird named Oscar. However, after the bird was killed by The Source, he was never mentioned again.
* As a child, Paige owned a clown puppet named Slappy, which once manifested in the real world as a real clown.
