### Early Life

As a child, Julian's parents died in a car crash, and his sister Rosemary was seriously injured and has since been in a coma. After this tragedy, Julian has been placed under the guardianship of his aunt Vivienne Laurent. His aunt was a very caring guardian, but as Julian got older, for unknown reasons, she began to interfere with all sorts of his romantic relationships, and at some point Julian noticed this.

When he was younger, he spent his entire allowance on a sweater just because he thought it looked cool.

She later learned that he was the major investor in SafeSpace, Seattle. After he spoke with the workers at SafeSpace, he revealed that he was planning on excavating under ground where the Command Center was. Macy then proceeded to invite him to dinner.
During the dinner, Macy made excuses for him to not dig up SafeSpace and then ended up putting a potion in his drink but she stopped him from drinking it. When she needed to get him clean, they headed to SafeSpace where they talked about her previous job. As they were talking, they were spotted by Macy's sister, Mel Vera, and Whitelighter Harry Greenwood.

In "*Dance Like No One is Witching*", Macy spends time with him in Aspen where she meets his aunt, Vivienne Laurent. Later, Macy returns to Seattle for an infected Harry. Julian's aunt forces Macy to break up with him since that's the only way to get the tech to save Harry's life Macy agrees to it. However, the next morning, Julian sees Macy during a meeting and excuses himself for a moment to talk with her. He revealed that he knows that Macy was forced into breaking up with him by his aunt, who has meddled in his relationships before, so he asks Macy to give him an second chance while he deals with his aunt to which she agrees to and the two of them share a kiss, which is witnessed by Harry.

In "*Needs to Know*", Julian was mentioned by Macy when she talked about the complexity of the romantic relationships and about her failed attempts to regain her witch powers. Macy called him her "drop of joy".

In "*Sudden Death*", Macy is trying to figure out how to sever the connection between Harry and Jimmy but is not having success.

With Harry held captive in their custody, Macy and Maggie attend the Shea Group's charity party, where Macy mimics Julian's voice to reach the secured basement.

In "*Don't Look Back in Anger*", Julian finds out the Veras are magical when he finds Ray Vera and his daughters at the Fort Easton Power Site, where the experiments are being held.

In "*Unsafe Space*", Julian is doubtful of the Faction's intentions. He expresses his doubts and unwillingness to hurt Macy to Vivienne. Vivienne, in turn, convinces him to focus on their goal by "proving" that black amber has the power to heal by injecting a few drops into his comatose sister, Rosemary. She responds for a few seconds, but then falls back in to her coma. Having been convinced, he promises to hand over Macy at all costs.

After the Vera-Vaughn Charmed Ones kidnap Julian, he explains that he saw Rosemary come to with his own eyes thanks to black amber. However, Macy discovers that Vivienne Laurent had duped Julian, due to the fact that black amber has been ineffective this whole time. Rosemary was brought back due to a sedative Vivienne gave her, which caused an inverse reaction and temporarily woke her from her coma. After realizing his aunt's betrayal, Julian turns on her and decides to help Macy and her sisters bring Vivienne down once and for all.

In "*Someone's Going to Die*", Julian disguises himself as Nadia to infiltrate the Faction. While Macy trusts him, the rest of the team has doubts, forcing them to take actions on their end. He attempts to steal a prism to give to the Charmed Ones, however Vivienne catches him before he can do so. Julian calls her out on her lies about using black amber to heal humanity.
