- "Oh, did I miss all the fun? No, wait, I am the fun. Thanks for this."
- —Eames after killing a Darklighter and stealing his crossbow.[src]
Eames was a powerful immortal warlock hellbent on killing all Whitelighters and leaving their charges unprotected so he could kill them and collect their powers.
History[]
Strategic Hunting[]
He stole numerous powers from witches over the years, over a large geographical area too (Kenya and Scotland/Britain) culminating in his theft of the rare power of deflection from Vivian. He then killed a Darklighter for his crossbow, hoping to use it to kill a Whitelighter so he could take his or her powers and then massacre all Whitelighters in the Upper Regions. This was to make all witches around the world defenseless and easy targets.
Setting His Plan In Motion[]
He was easily the most powerful warlock the Charmed Ones had faced up to that point. The sisters thought they had to counteract all of the powers he'd stolen with any spell they came up with to vanquish him.
Vivian's Whitelighter, Natalie, was serving as the Charmed Ones' acting Whitelighter, and offered herself as bait so the Charmed Ones could get his crossbow. However, Eames disguised himself as the crossbow, and stabbed Natalie to death with an arrow. He took her powers and orbed to the Heavens, hoping to start his rampage. The Charmed Ones anticipated this, however, and went to the Heavens themselves. Disguised as Whitelighters in robes, they stabbed Eames with his own arrow. Since Eames had acquired Natalie's powers, he had unknowingly acquired her vulnerability to Darklighter poison as well. Although he was mortally wounded, the Charmed Ones didn't think he was dying fast enough, and used the spell they'd written earlier to vanquish him.

Notes and Trivia[]
- Eames's entry in the Book of Shadows may have been written by Penny Halliwell. The entry dates Eames killing and stealing powers from witches in the 80's and 90's, during which Grams was the only active witch of the Warren Line.
- Eames is the first warlock to steal a witch's power on-screen. He is also the first to steal a Whitelighter's power, being the first to do so and proving that warlocks could steal powers besides those of witches.
- He was mentioned in the novel Mist and Stone. According to it, he had absorbed a Darklighter's power by killing him in order to gain access to his crossbow's magic.
