Deviation

Deviation is the ability to use one's own magical power to deflect the energies (usually attacks) of other magical beings. Deviation has never been shown to be an active power, but merely a skill various witches learned after the exploration of the capabilities of their powers. The first person to deviate a demonic attack was Prue Halliwell's telekinetic deviation of Inspector Rodriguez's energy ball.

Deviation is a defensive technique that can only be used to impede and redirect attacks. The more skilled a witch becomes with deviation the more directions said witch can parry attacks

Prue Halliwell


Prue uses telekinesis to deviate attacks from evil beings. She usually deviated attacks back at demons in order to injure or vanuish them, but she also telekinetically deviated attacks from one evil being towards another. Prue first demonstrated this skill during Déjà Vu All Over Again when Piper frozen an energy ball and Prue telekinetically hurled it back at its creator. Prue also deviated bullets in Ms Hellfire. Billie Jenkins is also shown accessing deviation when using her Telekinesis.

Piper Halliwell


Piper can use her Molecular Combustion to deviate attacks; usually reflecting them to the demons who throw them. She has done this few times. Originally, Piper used her Molecular Immobilization to freeze attacks and then waited for Prue to telekinetically move them. Once she developed and practiced with her second power, she learned how to move attacks on her own.

Phoebe Halliwell


Phoebe uses her channeling power to deviate magical powers back at her opponents. This one of the many abilities within her power of Empathy as well as one of her primary defensive moves. Phoebe's power is unique as she can deflect multiple powers at once. By using the sheer power of her mind or just her hands.

Paige Matthews


Paige can use her Telekinetic Orbing to deviate attacks. She has used two methods of her power to achieve this; the first by orbing energy balls into her hand and sending back at demons while still surrounded by orbs. The second by orb fire balls mid-air back at demons. Paige doesn't have to be specific with what she's calling. She's orbed acid back at a demon with the words "icky stuff."
