Hope

Hope was a student at Berkeley University with her best friend named Darcy. Hope received the box after Nina, the previous guardian was killed by Katya. Without knowing anything of the myth she briefly opened the box, trying to find out what was in it and accidently released a wave of sorrow. Piper and Nina discovered Hope with the box and Nina was revealed to be a demon named Katya who shapeshifted into the previous guardian. The Charmed Ones take Hope to the manor after the fight with Piper and Katya destroys her dorm room.

Hope was initially was unwilling to accept her destiny unsure if she really believed in magic. Hope then gets a call from Darcy asking to meet with her and after witnessing Wyatt orb into the room she runs out and meets Darcy at the university. Darcy actually turns out to be Katya and traps her in the Underworld until she opens the box and in return, Katya would spare the life of her friend Darcy who was being held at knifepoint. Hope eventually opens the box releasing all of the world's sorrows.

After Pandora's box is opened, Katya double crosses Hope and prepares to kill her but she knocks her sais away with an energy blast and the Charmed Ones rescue her. Katya retreats and instead shapeshifts into Darcy going with Hope to the manor and attempting to convince her that they can't trust the Charmed Ones. Hope leaves with Katya and she is planning to kill Hope again but it's actually Paige who glamoured into Hope since they suspected (correctly) that Darcy wasn't herself. Paige then vanquishes Katya and returns the real Darcy to the manor with Pandora's box.

At the manor the Charmed Ones realiseed that they need Hope to put all of the world's sorrows back in the box. Hope almost didn't believe she could until her friend Darcy mentioned that the last thing that at the bottom of the box was hope. Hope then puts all sorrow back and began her life as Guardian of Pandora's box.

Powers & Abilities
As a Guardian, Hope has the power of energy blasts, which enables her to blow away her targets. She also can utilize that power to shield off oncoming attacks, such as when Katya threw a sai at her and she protected herself with this power. Until the next Guardian is chosen, Hope is the only magical being who can open Pandora's box to either release or trap all the sorrows from the box. If the box is opened, she is the only one (Elders and demons aside) who is immune to it.
