Prudence Halliwell Prudence Halliwell, also known as Prue, appears in series' 1, 2 and 3 of the television series Charmed, and was played by Shannen Doherty. Prior to her untimely death, she possessed the powers of telekinesis and astral projection. Prue's story Prudence Halliwell was born on October 28, 1970 to the good witch Patty Halliwell and human Victor Bennett, their first child. She soon gained a little sister named Piper. As a witch, Prue developed the power to move things with her mind. On March 24, 1975 she was visited by a future version of herself. It was also on that day that Patty signed a pact with the warlock Nicholas to make him a ring that made him immune to her daughter's powers. After Prue's second little sister Phoebe was born in November 1975, Penny bound their powers to keep Nicholas from killing them and taking their powers. The memory of having had powers eventually faded from the girls' minds. At the age of 6 Prue was home with a cold as he father watched after her. Prue heard the sound of an ice cream truck and rushed ou t to see it. When she saw a boy get sucked inside she ran out to save him and was accidentally pulled into the truck. Victor rushed after her and followed her to a frozen playground inside the truck and brought her back home. After that Victor and Patty's mother argued that he couldn't protect his own children from the supernatural being merely human, and Victor left. After high school Piper and Prue then moved into an apartment together in Northbeach where they stayed until Penny became ill and they moved back in with her. Prue became engaged to a man named Roger and she asked Piper to be her maid of honor. Roger kept coming on to Phoebe secretly, then claiming Phoebe was after him. About this time Penny took a picture of the three of them together in front of the manor. Penny planned to use a potion to bind the girls powers forever, but she died before she could do it. Phoebe then left for New York to search for their father. Prue eventually called off the wedding with Roger. Prudence comes into her power with a mixture of shock and anger at her sister Phoebe, who she blames for her introduction to the Craft. As the series develops she learns to control her anger and channel her energy into her power. Prudence, being the eldest sister, sees herself as the mother-figure for the household; she is conservative, cautious and dislikes surprises, and it is often left to the middle sister Piper to arbitrate between Prue and Phoebe, whom Prue regards as immature, irresponsible and unpredictable. Prue's childhood sweetheart, Andy Trudeau, is now a detective. See here for more about Andy and Prudence. During this series, Prue works at Buckland's Auction House, which is infiltrated by powerful warlocks who are plotting the demise of the Charmed line. At the close of series one, Prue learns to channel her power through her hands, whereas prior to this she had channelled it through her eyes. Prudence continues to grow during series two, learning to accurately control her power through her hands. When Phoebe started to get hot flashes linked to visions of men being killed, the sisters learned that a Succubus was hunting in San Francisco. They cast a spell to attract the Succubus which turned Prue into a man. They were able to lure the Succubus to her doom. She also acquires the power of astral projection, which really happened to have been cloning, as she creates a double body of herself and moves her mind into it, temporarily. Which causes some initial problems but soon becomes very useful. During this series, she dates her partner, Jack Sheridan, at Bucklands, somewhat unsuccessfully. Prue gave up her career as an auction appraiser to pursue her dream of being a photographer. PRue was kidnapped by the former gangster, Bane Jessup, to help him fend off against the Ardo Malorum. Prue had found herself romantically attracted to him, as did he in her. Prue changes very little as a character, although she certainly appreciates the maturation of Phoebe. After a friend of Piper's discovered that Victor was back in town Piper went to investigate. About this time Prue noticed a strange ice cream truck that seemed to be abducting little kids. When Prue and Phoebe followed the truck they were sucked into it, where they found a strange frozen park inside and many children trapped there, being sucked into the nothing one by one. Phoebe and Prue freed several of the kids and trapped the driver inside his own truck, only to learn the children were demons and the truck was good. They contacted Victor and discovered that he could open the door on the ice cream truck because only humans could and asked for his help in freeing the truck's driver and recapturing the demons. Although the driver was taken by the nothing, they captured the demons and helped the new driver get his truck. This also helped Prue reconcile her feelings for Victor, who decided to move back into town. The warlock Zile had kidnapped Prue and was married to her by the dark priestess, Dantalian. Prue had became evil and turned on her sisters. When Zile was vanquished by the Charmed Ones, the evil hold on her was released. While preparing for the wedding of Leo and Piper, Prue started having reoccurring dreams of a dangerous man in a bar named T.J. she was visiting. Without knowing it her astral form was being used by her repressed emotions to get away from her responsibilities. After a murder outside the bar was blamed on Prue the police started to look for her. The sisters father Victor, Phoebe's half-demon boyfriend Cole Turner and Detective Daryl Morris attended the wedding, and the whitelighter elders sent Patty back to Earth for the day to attend the wedding as a gift. Before the police came after Prue T.J. crashed the wedding on a motorcycle, Piper almost called it off. Phoebe talked Prue into getting herself together and Darryl, Leo and Cole found the real killer. Leo and Piper were married by the ghost of her grandmother Penny in a special ceremony. When the sisters discovered a Banshee demon was killing people who were grieving, they cast a spell to track the Banshee which turned Prue into a dog. Phoebe was infected by the call of the Banshee, being turned into one herself, but they saved her. Prudence is killed by a demon, Shax, whilst defending an innocent.
