The Power of Three Spell is a spell that allows the Charmed Ones to invoke the Power of Three. It has proven to be useful for the Charmed Ones in several types of situations, ranging from protecting themselves from demons and other evil beings to regaining the trust in themselves and restoring their powers. The spell can be used defensively and offensively, and for vanquishing, binding or general connection purposes.
History[]
Throughout the Series[]
In "Safe Space", the Vera-Vaughn Charmed Ones attempted to use this spell against the hooded assassin but were only able to contain him. However, he began to fight through the effects of the spell and the sisters were forced to call Harry Greenwood, who then orbed them to the attic.
In "Third Time's the Charm", while in the midst of battle with the second monster created by the magical experiments of the Faction, the Charmed Ones were finally able to come to terms with their duty and were fully able to restore the Power of Three with this spell, causing a nearby door to burst off its hinges. Through Maggie Vera's power of foresight, she was able to determine when the monster was going to attack, allowing the Charmed Ones to use this spell against him and vanquish him, leaving behind only a skull.
In "The Enemy of My Frenemy", a witch and her sisters were hunted by a swarm of Carnal demons. The Charmed Ones came to the last living witch's aid and saved her by vanquishing the group of Carnals, including the son of their leader, Alfie, with the spell. While all of Alfie's troops were quickly vanquished, Alfie materialized shortly and told them they had no idea what they had done before he finally withered away.
In "Someone's Going to Die", after Vivienne Laurent used the human-made device known as "the Prism" to break into the Command Center and pollute the Black Amber Tree by touching the pool of black amber, the Charmed Ones used the spell against her. Attempting to siphon the Power of Three through the Prism, Vivienne was vanquished along with the device, as one being cannot hold the Power of Three.
In "Private Enemy No. 1", the Charmed Ones almost used the spell against Abigael Jameson-Caine before Mel Vera realized that it was Abigael and her demonic form had taken over in her sleep.
In "Chaos Theory", the Charmed Ones used it to protect Jordan Chase from Mo and Aladria, when they attempted to place him back inside the Tomb of Chaos. The spell was able to momentarily shut down the Perfecti's whole system, freeing both Jordan and Abigael in the process.
In "The Storm Before the Calm", the Charmed Ones used the spell against the Whispering Evil in combination with Macy Vaughn's newly reacquired fire power in order to drive the monster out of Jordan's body.
In "Not That Girl", Mel and Maggie used the spell in an attempt to activate the Power of Three with Kaela Danso, but due to Kaela's skepticism at the time, the spell was unsuccessful.
