Parker Charlotte Halliwell better known as Charlotte "Charlie" Halliwell is the second-born daughter of Phoebe Halliwell and Coop, in the Halliwell Manor during a time when mortals had magic. She is the younger sister of Prue and the older sister of Cassandra.
Both her sisters are powerful, strong-willed, independent thinkers who aren't afraid to voice their opinions. This often forces Charlotte to be the peacemaker between her sisters and is usually the one trying to get things back to normal.
Charlotte is a member of the Halliwell and Warren family.
History
This section discusses the most significant events in the life of Charlotte Halliwell.
Early Years
- "They were too concentrated on protecting the eldest ones and the ones with fewer powers. But they never cared about the middle sister who was born in that house in a time where magical beings had no magic at all."
- —Ignatius on Charlotte's past in Evil Becomes Her
Charlotte as a child
Parker or Charlotte, as she rather be called, was born two years after her eldest sister, Prue. She was born on a day where all magical powers were possessed by mortal beings.
She had a normal childhood like her cousins and sisters. Charlotte prefers her cupid side instead of her witch side. She doesn´t run away from a demon fight but she enjoys more being a matchmaker. That´s why she is so close to her father. It doesn´t mean that she´s not close to her mother, after all, Phoebe is always in favor of love. But she spent a lot of time with her father when she started receiving tasks and comes to ask him advice when it comes to matching souls.
All her life, Charlotte acted as the middle sister and pacemaker. As well as her aunts Prudence and Phoebe and later Piper and Paige relationship, Prue and Cassandra were always at odds. Charlotte had to act as the peacemaker.
Charlotte decided to follow Education at college but a year after enrolling, she left because she wanted to have more time for her job as a cupid. So her course is on standby.
Throughout Destined Series
Personality
Sweet, kind, generous, lovely, patient, calm, optimistic, peacemaker. Charlotte is more into the cupid thing that fighting demons. She doesn't say no to a fight against evil, but she is a lot more into the finding love to others thing. She is all about love. She has a sweet temper and tries to make everything look OK. When it comes to love for herself, Charlotte is very shy and tries to hide her true feelings when she thinks they are wrong.
She is very smart and intelligent. Charlotte is not afraid to tell what goes on her mind and what she thinks of a particular subject. She is often sensitive and compassionate towards others and thanks to her powers, she gives very sound advice. She is a lot like her mother.
However, when Ignatius/Tyree infected her with the Rage Stone, Charlotte became a much darker, brutally honest, and harsher version of herself. Every dark and bad thought she ever had - mainly towards Prue, was unleashed. Once the Rage Stone leaves her system she returns to a version of her old self.
Love Life
Despite being a cupid, finding love for herself was never easy for Charlotte. In high school, she was in love with her older sisters' boyfriend, Eric. Since then, she has dated other guys but claims that she isn't really into the dating scene.
Eric Sullivan
- Charlotte fell in love with Eric shortly after her and her sister, Prue, broke up in high school. However, she kept it a secret as she didn't want to hurt Prue or cause conflict with her sister. When Eric returned to San Francisco her old feelings returned, and she still hid it from her sister and everyone around her. She was a big support for Eric when he found out about the existence of magic, which made them get even closer. They eventually started to hang out and then dated. At first, Prue wasn't happy about her sister dating her ex-boyfriend but eventually approved. The two have been in a serious romantic relationship ever since.
Dennis
- Charlie and Dennis met at Magic School, and were TA's at the time. They originally dated non-exclusively, which Charlotte wasn't thrilled about due to wanting something more serious. The pair had a "friends-with-benefits" type-relationship for a brief period of time but were never anything serious. Their fling eventually ended and they stopped seeing each other. It can presumed that they are cordial in the halls of the school when they see each other.

After high school, Charlotte attended college but never graduated as she decided to put her studies on hold to handle magical problems. However, she eventually returned to school and graduated from college.

Since working there, she has worked her way up from assistant, to teacher's assistant, and is now a teacher at the school. She works side-by-side with her younger cousin, Alex Trudeau, who is also her TA.
In her spare time, she is a Cupid agent that helps people find true love. Though she often tries to keep herself away from demon-hunting she does partake in it is necessary.
