i would like to apply for piper halliwell.
Name:Piper Halliwell
Age:34
Show: (which show is the character from?)Charmed
Celeb:Holly Marie Combs
Personality:Sweet, stubborn/ headstrong as well as bossy and smart. She can be pushy at times and over protective but she does mean well so. She is kind too and kind. She is slightly naive even now. She got ups and downs in her personality. She isn't good in keeping a relationship for long but she does her best, and lately it
's getting better and better for her.
History:Piper was born in 1973 to Patricia Halliwell and Victor Bennett. She was their second child.
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 daughters' powers.[1] After Piper's little sister, Phoebe, was born in November 1975, Penny bound their powers to keep Nicholas from collecting them and ultimately killing them.[1] In the first three seasons of Charmed, Piper is the middle sister—meek, shy and very much the arbitrator between her sisters, Phoebe and Prue. After the death of Prue, Piper gains the confidence she needed to take over the role of the eldest sister. Through it all, she fills the maternal role and acts as the voice of reason.
Trained as an accountant and a chef,[4] she worked as a bank teller after her college graduation, but was persuaded by Grams to resign. Right after Grams died in 1998, Piper worked as a private caterer and as a chef at a trendy bar/restaurant in downtown San Francisco called "Quake".[4] She seems to be widely considered one of the best chefs in San Francisco.
As a new witch, Piper develops the power of molecular immobilization, the slowing down of molecules to the point where an object appears frozen. This power later evolves into the second ability of molecular combustion, where molecules speed up and lose cohesion, effectively causing the object to explode.
On the show, Piper has 7 cars- 1993 Jeep Cherokee (1x01-1x22), 1998 Jeep Cherokee (2x01-2x22), 2000 Jeep Cherokee (3x01-3x22), 2001 Jeep Grand Cherokee (4x01-4x22), 2002 Jeep Grand Cherokee (5x01-6x06), 2004 Jeep Grand Cherokee (6x01-7x22), and 2005 Jeep Grand Cherokee (8x01-8x22).
[edit]
Revelation as a Charmed One
Once the Charmed lineage is revealed, Piper is initially shocked, and then disturbed by her new powers, scared that she may hurt someone.[4] Piper's inherited power is the power of molecular immobilization, also known as temporal stasis. This primarily gives her the ability to 'freeze' objects in motion by slowing down their molecular movement rate to such a point where they appear not to move. Her power is initially triggered by panic and Piper had to make hand gestures to cause things to freeze or unfreeze. If Piper's hands were tied, she'd be powerless.[5] Piper at first could only freeze everything in her immediate location (within the room she was in) and the freeze would only last for a few seconds. She later learned to freeze and unfreeze on command, and selectively choose parts of objects to freeze or unfreeze. She could also freeze and unfreeze certain objects and subjects (like every innocent in the room). This power would keep growing stronger so that Piper can freeze for longer, and in a larger range of area around her. The phrase temporal stasis has been confused as a misused word for this ability but it actually states what the ability does (temporal means over a period of time and or denoting time and stasis is a state of balance between forces (equilibrium), and inactivity). Early in the series it was established that Piper was unable to freeze "good" witches, however, this was contradicted occasionally in later seasons, such as when Piper froze Billie in "Hulkus Pocus".
Later, she developed the more offensive power of Molecular Combustion, or blowing things up. This power works by speeding up the molecules of the desired object to the point where they separate with an explosive action. It uses a similar hand motion as she does for freezing and thus, she was hesitant to use either power initially, not knowing whether her targets will freeze in place or explode into bits. As with freezing, Piper learned to master this power and can attack with precision.
Unlike Prue's telekinetic abilities, the limits on Piper's power are not determined by an object's mass. Even relatively new to her powers, she once froze a moving truck to prevent it from hitting a baby's pram. Rather, Piper's power of freezing seems to be limited by the area, regardless of how many objects are in it or their weight. When indoors, Piper's powers appear to be limited by the room she is in. Outdoors, it is unclear what her limits are, but in a magical trip to the future, she once froze an entire city block, with every object in it.[6] She was obviously very surprised by this, as if she had never demonstrated influence over such a large area before. Since this was an accident, it is unclear if that was actually her limit, or if she could freeze an even larger area through effort. She can freeze objects and people that are technically outside the room she is in, if she has a clear shot. When Phoebe was possessed by the Woogyman, Piper was able to freeze her while outdoors and Phoebe was still inside the manor because the door was open, giving Piper an unobstructed path to her.[7] She also once froze someone who was outside in front of the manor and she was inside, just by thrusting her hands through an open window.
Originally, both powers were reliant on both her hands (to do the blasting/freezing motion), and quite a few creatures (including good witches, ghosts and certain demons) are resistant or immune to her powers (For example, when she attempted to use her power on Cole Turner/Belthazor, all that she managed to do was send him flying back a few feet rather than actually destroy him). Piper has, however, learned to perform these feats with one hand (and on one occasion, she used a costume prop wand). For example, she once froze a roomful of jurors by only thrusting one hand into the room and gesturing, without actually seeing them (she was hidden behind a door). She later unfroze them in the same way.[8] She also once blew up a demon in P3, after freezing all the patrons, with just one hand. While Piper does usually need to see an object in order to blow it up (or at least have a fix on its location; she once blew off ropes, restraining her arms behind her back), her freezing power has never depended on a direct line of sight. She often freezes an entire area, including objects that she cannot see, or even know are present.
The immunity to her freezing powers may not apply to her exploding power. Prue theorized that since good witches were immune to her freezing power, they would be immune to her exploding power. That theory has never been fully tested. In "The Torn Identity", Piper is able to badly scar Christy Jenkins's arm using an application of her power, although it is uncertain whether Christy's morality played a part in her vulnerability to Piper's power.
Although Piper usually has to use hand gestures to activate her power, in one episode, Piper's anger at Phoebe and Paige caused her molecular combustion power to blow off the ceiling chandelier without a gesture.[9] Since her powers are based off of emotions, it is believed that Piper's combustion powers came around when she started getting more aggressive and confident.
Piper as a Hindu Goddess in "A Call to Arms"
Like the other Charmed Ones, Piper can also brew magical potions and recite/write spells. She is best at making potions, as predicted by Grams in 1997[10] before she died from a heart attack, because Piper is a natural-born and university-trained chef.
In contrast with Phoebe and Prue, Piper has never been interested in learning conventional means of fighting, such as martial arts kicks and punches, preferring to rely on her powers. As the use of either of Piper's powers would bring most physical confrontations to an immediate conclusion in her favor, there is little need for her to be adept at hand-to-hand combat, though she has been shown using some of her combat skills in some episodes.[11] She has also been seen using some martial arts skills, and also gymnastics in the show.
She has been a Wendigo,[12] a warlock,[13] a ghost, a Fury,[14] a superhero,[15] a Greek goddess,[16] a Valkyrie,[17] the Lady of the Lake,[18] a Hindu goddess,[19] an Angel of Death,[20] a witch beast that came out during a blue moon (alongside Paige and Phoebe),[9] and also temporarily gained the powers of a Whitelighter on two occasions, both times by switching powers with Leo.[21][22]
