The Charmed Ones are the chosen three sisters, known as the most powerful trio of witches in the world. They are the champions of good in the fight against evil and to protect the innocents. Each Charmed One has a unique power in addition to their basic Wiccan powers. The magical bond of the sisters is known as The Power of Three, which is the most powerful form of magic.
History
Marisol Vera was a powerful witch who birthed three daughters by two different men. Her eldest daughter, Macy was given over to her father to be raised while Marisol raised her second and third daughters, Mel and Maggie.
Three months after her ultimate demise at the hands of a yet-to-be-known evil, Macy moved to town and discovered her family. When she went to meet her sisters, their powers unbound. Harry Greenwood, their Whitelighter, explained the situation and told them to decide whether to accept their destiny as witches within the next forty-eight hours. After some bonding and much consideration, the sisters unanimously agreed to accept their new fate, becoming The Charmed Ones and vanquished their first demon together.
They are currently under tutelage by Harry, while also battling demons who seek to unleash chaos on the world and summon The Source of All Evil.
