Glamouring

Glamouring is a magical method of changing one's appearance used by Whitelighters, Elders and witches.It is similar to, but not synonomous with, shapeshifting. Glamouring casts an illusion around a being so the change is in appearance only, while shapeshifting physically transforms the being.

Glamouring can be activated by ability, potion or spell. The first time glamouring is shown is when Leo Wyatt glamours into the demon Belthazor to train the sisters. In this type of glamouring the person manifests with bright blue orbs.When Leo glamours into Belthazor he alsow uses Energy bals, this power is more like a light ball rather than Energy ball,whitelighters have ability to "throw light" this is seen in the episode witch stock, Leo is making a light show for witches. Thus they can only mimic energy balls and other demonic powers at a fraction of their power, making them safe to use in training,as we have seen it in the episode "Blinded by the whitelighter".
