"What powers? Wait. Our powers?"

"No problem... for I bear the power of.... One."
Who is Piper Halliwell?
The middle Halliwell sister, Piper was always the peace maker between Prue and Phoebe. Before becoming a Charmed One, Piper was a university-trained chef with a natural talent for cooking. After receiving their Charmed powers, Piper found she had the power to freeze objects (molecular immobilization) which later grew into the ability to also "explode" them (molecular combustion) as she became more confident in her skills. She is also the best at brewing potions, as predicted by her grandmother.After Prue's death, Piper took the role of eldest sister to Phoebe and Paige. Her confidence grew as well as her abilities. In addition to her duties she also owned and operated P3, a nightclub, and eventually opened her own restaurant.
Love was always in the cards for Piper, who fell for the handy man/Whitelighter Leo Wyatt. Although opposed by the Elders at first and several other obstacles along the way, eventually Piper and Leo married and had son Wyatt and Chris, along with a daughter named Melinda. Piper became more powerful in order to protect her children, especially with the abilities Wyatt and Chris displayed at early ages.

Piper's Powers
"Freeze now, questions later!"
Piper's power is molecular immobilization, also known as temporal stasis, inherited from her mother. This 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. As her power grows, Piper has the ability of molecular combustion. The opposite of temporal stasis, this causes molecules to speed up to such a point that they blow up.Originally required to use both hands, Piper has become so adept at her powers she can now freeze an entire room, almost any sized object, and most often only uses one hand with deadly precision.
In addition to her powers, Piper is the best of the Haliwell sisters at making potions. Grams predicted this, as Piper is a good cook and the most grounded of the sisters.
Magic hasn't always been kind to Piper and her sisters. Piper has clinically "died" 9 times in the course of the show and has been turned into several magical creatures including a Wendigo and an Amazon.
