Pheebs you really have done a good job with that press release re-write of mine. If more agree, use that one as an official press release.

Maybe I can rework other parts of my version for something else later. Re-reading mine I realized it didn't come out the way I thought it would. That online dating part maybe could be reworked with something that gets a Warren to go undercover for it.

Just popping in quick enough to repost this update from the previous page that included the press release credits.

Anyone want to edit it to include anything that was added today, go for it.

"Elemental Charmed"

BACKSTORY:

Prudence Warren, a witch born from a long matriarchal line of witches who have always lived in Warren Manor in Salem, MA, always said everything happens for a reason, but nothing comes without a price.

She has known that she has the Elemental power of Spirit when she started having premonitions as a teenager. While studying to become a doctor, she married fellow witch, Allen Halliwell, and gave birth twice (with Allen agreeing to let their daughters carry the family name of Warren if any son carried his family name of Halliwell). When they grew older, Prudence discovered that her older daughter, Patience, had the Elemental power of Earth, while her younger daughter, Paige, had the Elemental power of Air. When Prudence's premonitions revealed that her two future granddaughters would have the other two Elemental powers of Water and Fire, she realized that her family was destined to become the powerful Elemental Witches. She began training her daughters in the Craft in order to prepare them for what would eventually happen to them and their own daughters, especially after a warlock murdered Allen.

While still a teenager, Paige fell in love with an older man, Sam Wilder. Although Prudence warned her against him so Paige eventually broke up with him, a couple months later she discovered she was pregnant. She gave birth to a daughter, Peyton. When Prudence, Patience, and Paige discovered that Peyton had the Elemental power of Water, and when a couple years later Patience married non-magical Victor Bennett and had their daughter Piper, who had the Elemental power of Fire, the Warren family was certain that those five would become the Elemental Witches with each of Prudence's daughters having one child, who were cousins.

This changed when Sam came back and began influencing his eight-year-old daughter. When Peyton used her firepower to kill a classmate who was teasing her, she became a warlock like her father. Under his influence, Peyton turned on her family and much as it hurt the family, especially Patience, they ended up having to vanquish Peyton, and they were sure all was lost.

But this changed five years later, when Piper was ten and Patience gave birth to Phoebe, who had the same Elemental power as Peyton - Water. After Phoebe was born, Patience and her mother and sister decided to try to protect her daughters from what had happened to Peyton. The three older witches placed a cloaking spell on Victor and the girls before the three of them relocated to the other side of the country in San Francisco. This way the girls could be raised by their father and be protected while also having a normal childhood, something no other Warren witch had ever had.

In order to continue to protect them, Victor raised Piper and Phoebe so they didn't know that they were witches or destined to become one of the Elemental Witches – they were always just his little girls. They’ve visited their grandmother, mother (who they believed divorced their father, but agreed to let him have custody so that she could live her own life as a photographer for the Salem Police Department) during summer vacations and they always go back to Warren Manor for Christmas.

But as our series begins, Prudence has a premonition showing that Sam is back, going after Piper and Phoebe, so the two are in danger. Paige uses her Elemental power of Air to transport herself, her mother and her sister to her nieces. They're too late to prevent Sam from murdering Victor, but thanks to Prudence's premonition, Patience uses her Elemental power of Earth to throw Sam into a wall before he can harm her daughters. Then Prudence, Patience and Paige use a potion and a spell to vanquish Sam. Patience reveals to her daughters that they are witches and lets them decide if they want her to unbind their powers. After seeing what happened to their father, that idea frightens the girls and they decide against this.

Piper and Phoebe try to forget what their mother told them as they help their family prepare their father’s wake and funeral, even as the younger set of sisters consider moving to Salem. During the funeral, the whole Warren family remember and mourn Victor through numerous flashbacks.

But when Piper and Phoebe see how their powers can help people, they finally agreed to embrace their destiny, and their powers are unbound. They agree to join their mother and aunt, who along with their grandmother who uses her premonitions and knowledge to guide her daughters and granddaughters. The five Warren women are now the Elemental Witches, setting out to protect those innocent of the knowledge of magic from the denizens of evil magic.

THE MAIN CHARACTERS:

Prudence Warren: Aged 70. Much the same as the Grams we know and shake our head at, she's the strict, fiery matriarch of the Warren family. She's very much like Prue Halliwell, initially strict but because she will have suffered fewer losses than the "real Grams" she becomes more mellow and softer. She has the Elemental power of Spirit which gives her premonitions. She was a doctor but is now retired, although now she uses her skills along with potions to heal her family’s injuries.

Patience Warren: Prudence's older daughter, aged 50. Pretty much the Patty we know and love, although even more kind and caring. She functions as the "balance" of the family as Piper was in the original series, but unlike Piper Halliwell, she is the most selfless person of all and always has time to help those in need, although that often gets her in trouble. Like Prue Halliwell, she's a photographer, but unlike Prue, she works with the Salem police. She has the Elemental power of Earth which allows her to throw anything..

Paige Warren: Prudence's younger daughter, aged 40. Again, she is basically the same as her namesake, except she is Patty's sister, not Piper and Phoebe's. She's sometimes irresponsible and impulsive and not always in touch with reality. Much in the same way Prue would lecture Phoebe at being irresponsible in the original series, Prudence would be the same with this "Paige". Like Paige Matthews, she's a social worker. Paige has the Elemental power of Air, which allows her to use the wind to move herself and anyone else to wherever she wants to go.

Piper Warren: Patience's older daughter, aged 30. Again much like Piper Halliwell, but rather than being shy, she's very fiery, like later-season Piper without constantly feeling sorry for herself (although she does miss her normal life..,), and because there are no whitelighters, she never falls for one. Like Piper Halliwell, she owns her own restaurant and is a very good cook, so she's the one who makes most of the potions. She has the Elemental power of Fire, which allows her to form and throw fireballs, but like Piper Warren herself, the power isn't evil.

Phoebe Warren: Patience's younger daughter, aged 20. Also much like Phoebs Halliwell (and never like PhoeME Halliwell), but like her grandmother, mother, aunt and sister, the fact that she was born in Warren Manor has nothing to do with whether she can easily turn evil - all five have free will and can decide if they want to do good or evil. Phoebe is still in college and works on the school paper. She has always loved to write and is the one who comes up with most of the original spells. Phoebe has the Elemental power of Water which allows her to freeze molecules.

"Simply Charmed Again"

Reboot From Original Creator Gets CW Pilot Orders

For a second consecutive year, the CW has handed out its first two pilot orders to a high-profile reboot of a long-running series from CBS TV Studios and another project from one of Warner Bros. TV’s top producers.

This time the network has greenlighted a new “Charmed” from the show's original creator, Constance M. Burge. The project will reunite Burge with three of her fellow writing staff: Sheryl. J Anderson and the popular team of Chris Levinson and Zach Estrin. Also joining the project is Paul Ruditis, known for his work on the popular Charmed comic series and author of several Charmed novels. Burge will act as executive producer while the others will write all of the episodes.

The CW originally tried to bring back “Charmed”, one of the signature dramas of predecessor The WB, last season, when it ordered a reimagining of the original Aaron Spelling series from the same creative auspices. It was to be set in 1976 and feature a new trio of witches. The project was rolled over to this development season.

The new “Charmed” script, penned by Anderson and Ruditis and based on a story by Burge, is set in present time. Per The CW, whose brass greenlighted the pilot shortly after getting the script, “this new dark, dramatic ‘Charmed’ reboot" of the original series centers on five women, not three, and unlike the original classic series, this new take will be incorporating the five elements (Earth, Air, Fire, Water and Spirit).

"Elemental Charmed" Renewed for Season Two, Moves To CBS-TV

CBS-TV has picked up its first new series for next season, and it is not that new. After weeks of speculation, "'Elemental Charmed" will move from cable channel The CW to its broadcast sister network CBS, which has renewed the fantasy drama for a second season.

The pickup, which comes hours after the most recent deadline for The CW to renew freshman series, will find its new home at CBS-TV, with the likes of other old properties which have in the past few years been rebooted and redeveloped for the CBS audience, especially for those whose cable systems do not include The CW.

An ''Elemental Charmed” move to CBS-TV had been rumored for a while, with talks becoming real the last few days. A CBS pickup was contingent on finding a way to produce a show of that scale and since CBS-TV also partners The CW network, the decision to move the series should make for a smooth transition.

CBS-TV had frequently been mentioned as a suitable home for 'Elemental Charmed' because the show’s audience tending to skew older than the ones who usually watch The CW, the CBS-TV president's public comments about regretting not going after the project when it was originally pitched, and the fact that CBS-TV is owned by CBS Studio, which also co-owns part of The CW.

This is the complete opposite of what happened a few years back, when "Supergirl" was rumored to be moving from CBS-TV to The CW; this time a series originally aired on The CW is making the move.

Despite the fact that its numbers were consistent for The CW and the series would have still been ordered for a second season, they found that most of their younger core audience wasn't responding to the series, which center around three generations of a family of witches.

Producer Connie Burge explained in an interview: "Although The CW was very supportive of our show, we didn't find it connected with the younger audience, and the network felt this would have meant the series would undergo a revamp in the second season, only featuring Emmalee Thompson and Meghan Corletto, who play Piper and Phoebe, the youngest members of the Warren family, something we didn't want to do."

TBC who plays Prudence, the matriarch of the Warren family, joked to interviewers: ”I was convinced that had the series stayed on The CW, I would be out of a job, because they would have killed me off."

But TBC turned serious as she added, "The move will allow the show to still remain the staple it was on The CW; we just found that the audience connected with us older women just as much as they connected with the younger ones. I am really pleased with the move, and look forward to our show telling more great stories about the Warren women."

Paul Ruditis, one of the chief writers, relieved panicking fans, announcing that "All the ladies are coming back for Season Two, the foundation and mythology we set up in our first season will progress in Season Two. We will continue to tell great stories for these Warren women."

Ruditis also hinted that the second season might go deeper into the family lives of the Warrens. We could possibly see some backstories forming from some of our ladies.

"Elemental Charmed" is produced by Constance M. Burge in association with CBS Studios.

Classic “Charmed” stars Shannen Doherty and 'Alyssa Milano' to guest star in undisclosed roles for the season finale of 'Elemental Charmed'

The former stars of the original classic series “Charmed have both booked guest-starring roles in the series' upcoming season finale set to air May 19th.

Connie Burge, who created the classic series that starred Shannen Doherty, Holly Marie Combs, Alyssa Milano and Rose McGowan and is executive producer for the new series, had been considering bringing the former stars onto the show for some time. "I've been trying to find suitable roles for Shannen, Alyssa, Holly, and Rose. But I just couldn't find the right story. But after collaboration with Chris Levinson and Zach Estrin, who co-wrote the season finale, we think we’ve found the perfect roles for them."

Doherty revealed that she was called about appearing in "Elemental Charmed" and admits she was hesitant to take the offer. But after hearing what Burge had planned for her character, and then hearing that Burge had talked to Milano who would also be appearing. Doherty felt the timing was right, and that fans of the original classic series would really like what Burge has planned.

Milano told the press: "Just being approached was such an honor. I spent eight years of my life with 'Charmed', so this was almost like a high-school reunion, and when I heard Shannen was also going to be a part of it, I really wanted to do it. I haven't worked with Shannen in nearly 20 years, but the two of us have connected through social media for a while and I can't wait to see her again."

Burge mentioned that she hopes that other stars like Holly Marie Combs, Rose McGowan, Brian Krause and Julian McMahon could appear in the series further down the line. "I don't want to overcrowd this series with too many guest appearances, not when we already have five stars. But it's not out of the question."

Doherty and Milano will start filming their scenes for the season finale in April.

This leaves Paige, Piper, and Phoebe home alone. Phoebe thinks her new English teacher would make a great blind date for Paige, so the two sisters invite Paige to a relaxing time out at Piper's restaurant where they introduce her to George (special guest star Neil Roberts). However the dinner becomes anything but relaxing when Paige suddenly starts acting very strange. The sisters discover that George is a warlock, using mind control to control Paige. They discover that he wants to use her to help him avenge his lover's (special guest star Leigh-Allyn Baker) death.

Matters become worse when the warlock casts a spell that lets his lover's spirit possess Paige. Now it's up to Piper and Phoebe to save Paige's soul, and stop the warlocks.

As always, feel free to re-edit, comment or ask questions. If you want to re-edit this whole arc completely, go for it. If you have other ideas, let us all know here? 

For now, I've put these as part of our First Season, but should it be held off and left for Season Two?

What do you all think, especially since it's a story that carries a few episodes, and the way I've been working this story, It seems to have taken a life of its own that it could definitely be an arc now? I also am not sure a story like this fits our First Season? 

[Ruth Marie]

Maybe the second season?

I'd also have it that they can't tap into the full powers. Can't do what our Element Warrens can. I'd add conflict that this coven cant handle the powers.

But I think maybe we could have fun with two stories for Prudence and Patience dealing with the coven and Paige and the rest in Salem with the friend and Piper freaking out her employee is a warlock with the Warlock test.

Maybe no need to involve them all coming together. I'd like two separate stories for a few episodes.

I did my own new press release. My own one is a little Prudence-centric with learning about her past too.

Pheebs, Maybe we could even find a way to combine our ideas and episodes together somehow. Especially the parts about Prudence and her past, since yours is about her coven days and mine was her honeymoon with Allen. I'm sure we can somehow work these together unless we want to have one in one season and another in another.

Nothing says we can't have two separate episodes that dabble into Prudence's past. Just don't think two in one season is a good idea.

"Elemental Charmed"

BACKSTORY:

Prudence Warren, a witch born from a long matriarchal line of witches who have always lived in Warren Manor in Salem, MA, always said everything happens for a reason, but nothing comes without a price.

She has known that she has the Elemental power of Spirit when she started having premonitions as a teenager. While studying to become a doctor, she married fellow witch, Allen Halliwell, and gave birth twice (with Allen agreeing to let their daughters carry the family name of Warren if any son carried his family name of Halliwell). When they grew older, Prudence discovered that her older daughter, Patience, had the Elemental power of Earth, while her younger daughter, Paige, had the Elemental power of Air. When Prudence's premonitions revealed that her two future granddaughters would have the other two Elemental powers of Water and Fire, she realized that her family was destined to become the powerful Elemental Witches. She began training her daughters in the Craft in order to prepare them for what would eventually happen to them and their own daughters, especially after a warlock murdered Allen.

While still a teenager, Paige fell in love with an older man, Sam Wilder. Although Prudence warned her against him so Paige eventually broke up with him, a couple months later she discovered she was pregnant. She gave birth to a daughter, Peyton. When Prudence, Patience, and Paige discovered that Peyton had the Elemental power of Water, and when a couple years later Patience married non-magical Victor Bennett and had their daughter Piper, who had the Elemental power of Fire, the Warren family was certain that those five would become the Elemental Witches with each of Prudence's daughters having one child, who were cousins.

This changed when Sam came back and began influencing his eight-year-old daughter. When Peyton used her firepower to kill a classmate who was teasing her, she became a warlock like her father. Under his influence, Peyton turned on her family and much as it hurt the family, especially Patience, they ended up having to vanquish Peyton, and they were sure all was lost.

But this changed five years later, when Piper was ten and Patience gave birth to Phoebe, who had the same Elemental power as Peyton - Water. After Phoebe was born, Patience and her mother and sister decided to try to protect her daughters from what had happened to Peyton. The three older witches placed a cloaking spell on Victor and the girls before the three of them relocated to the other side of the country in San Francisco. This way the girls could be raised by their father and be protected while also having a normal childhood, something no other Warren witch had ever had.

In order to continue to protect them, Victor raised Piper and Phoebe so they didn't know that they were witches or destined to become one of the Elemental Witches – they were always just his little girls. They’ve visited their grandmother, mother (who they believed divorced their father, but agreed to let him have custody so that she could live her own life as a photographer for the Salem Police Department) during summer vacations and they always go back to Warren Manor for Christmas.

But as our series begins, Prudence has a premonition showing that Sam is back, going after Piper and Phoebe, so the two are in danger. Paige uses her Elemental power of Air to transport herself, her mother and her sister to her nieces. They're too late to prevent Sam from murdering Victor, but thanks to Prudence's premonition, Patience uses her Elemental power of Earth to throw Sam into a wall before he can harm her daughters. Then Prudence, Patience and Paige use a potion and a spell to vanquish Sam. Patience reveals to her daughters that they are witches and lets them decide if they want her to unbind their powers. After seeing what happened to their father, that idea frightens the girls and they decide against this.

Piper and Phoebe try to forget what their mother told them as they help their family prepare their father’s wake and funeral, even as the younger set of sisters consider moving to Salem. During the funeral, the whole Warren family remember and mourn Victor through numerous flashbacks.

But when Piper and Phoebe see how their powers can help people, they finally agreed to embrace their destiny, and their powers are unbound. They agree to join their mother and aunt, who along with their grandmother who uses her premonitions and knowledge to guide her daughters and granddaughters. The five Warren women are now the Elemental Witches, setting out to protect those innocent of the knowledge of magic from the denizens of evil magic.

THE MAIN CHARACTERS:

Prudence Warren: Aged 70. Much the same as the Grams we know and shake our head at, she's the strict, fiery matriarch of the Warren family. She's very much like Prue Halliwell, initially strict but because she will have suffered fewer losses than the "real Grams" she becomes more mellow and softer. She has the Elemental power of Spirit which gives her premonitions. She was a doctor but is now retired, although now she uses her skills along with potions to heal her family’s injuries.

Patience Warren: Prudence's older daughter, aged 50. Pretty much the Patty we know and love, although even more kind and caring. She functions as the "balance" of the family as Piper was in the original series, but unlike Piper Halliwell, she is the most selfless person of all and always has time to help those in need, although that often gets her in trouble. Like Prue Halliwell, she's a photographer, but unlike Prue, she works with the Salem police. She has the Elemental power of Earth which allows her to throw anything..

Paige Warren: Prudence's younger daughter, aged 40. Again, she is basically the same as her namesake, except she is Patty's sister, not Piper and Phoebe's. She's sometimes irresponsible and impulsive and not always in touch with reality. Much in the same way Prue would lecture Phoebe at being irresponsible in the original series, Prudence would be the same with this "Paige". Like Paige Matthews, she's a social worker. Paige has the Elemental power of Air, which allows her to use the wind to move herself and anyone else to wherever she wants to go.

Piper Warren: Patience's older daughter, aged 30. Again much like Piper Halliwell, but rather than being shy, she's very fiery, like later-season Piper without constantly feeling sorry for herself (although she does miss her normal life..,), and because there are no whitelighters, she never falls for one. Like Piper Halliwell, she owns her own restaurant and is a very good cook, so she's the one who makes most of the potions. She has the Elemental power of Fire, which allows her to form and throw fireballs, but like Piper Warren herself, the power isn't evil.

Phoebe Warren: Patience's younger daughter, aged 20. Also much like Phoebs Halliwell (and never like PhoeME Halliwell), but like her grandmother, mother, aunt and sister, the fact that she was born in Warren Manor has nothing to do with whether she can easily turn evil - all five have free will and can decide if they want to do good or evil. Phoebe is still in college and works on the school paper. She has always loved to write and is the one who comes up with most of the original spells. Phoebe has the Elemental power of Water which allows her to freeze molecules.

PRESS RELEASES FOR “ELEMENTAL CHARMED” FROM THE CW AND CBS-TV

"Simply Charmed Again"

Reboot From Original Creator Gets CW Pilot Orders

For a second consecutive year, the CW has handed out its first two pilot orders to a high-profile reboot of a long-running series from CBS TV Studios and another project from one of Warner Bros. TV’s top producers.

This time the network has greenlighted a new “Charmed” from the show's original creator, Constance M. Burge. The project will reunite Burge with three of her fellow writing staff: Sheryl. J Anderson and the popular team of Chris Levinson and Zach Estrin. Also joining the project is Paul Ruditis, known for his work on the popular Charmed comic series and author of several Charmed novels. Burge will act as executive producer while the others will write all of the episodes.

The CW originally tried to bring back “Charmed”, one of the signature dramas of predecessor The WB, last season, when it ordered a reimagining of the original Aaron Spelling series from the same creative auspices. It was to be set in 1976 and feature a new trio of witches. The project was rolled over to this development season.

The new “Charmed” script, penned by Anderson and Ruditis and based on a story by Burge, is set in present time. Per The CW, whose brass greenlighted the pilot shortly after getting the script, “this new dark, dramatic ‘Charmed’ reboot" of the original series centers on five women, not three, and unlike the original classic series, this new take will be incorporating the five elements (Earth, Air, Fire, Water and Spirit).

"Elemental Charmed" Renewed for Season Two, Moves To CBS-TV

CBS-TV has picked up its first new series for next season, and it is not that new. After weeks of speculation, "'Elemental Charmed" will move from cable channel The CW to its broadcast sister network CBS, which has renewed the fantasy drama for a second season.

The pickup, which comes hours after the most recent deadline for The CW to renew freshman series, will find its new home at CBS-TV, with the likes of other old properties which have in the past few years been rebooted and redeveloped for the CBS audience, especially for those whose cable systems do not include The CW.

An ''Elemental Charmed” move to CBS-TV had been rumored for a while, with talks becoming real the last few days. A CBS pickup was contingent on finding a way to produce a show of that scale and since CBS-TV also partners The CW network, the decision to move the series should make for a smooth transition.

CBS-TV had frequently been mentioned as a suitable home for 'Elemental Charmed' because the show’s audience tending to skew older than the ones who usually watch The CW, the CBS-TV president's public comments about regretting not going after the project when it was originally pitched, and the fact that CBS-TV is owned by CBS Studio, which also co-owns part of The CW.

This is the complete opposite of what happened a few years back, when "Supergirl" was rumored to be moving from CBS-TV to The CW; this time a series originally aired on The CW is making the move.

Despite the fact that its numbers were consistent for The CW and the series would have still been ordered for a second season, they found that most of their younger core audience wasn't responding to the series, which center around three generations of a family of witches.

Producer Connie Burge explained in an interview: "Although The CW was very supportive of our show, we didn't find it connected with the younger audience, and the network felt this would have meant the series would undergo a revamp in the second season, only featuring Emmalee Thompson and Meghan Corletto, who play Piper and Phoebe, the youngest members of the Warren family, something we didn't want to do."

TBC who plays Prudence, the matriarch of the Warren family, joked to interviewers: ”I was convinced that had the series stayed on The CW, I would be out of a job, because they would have killed me off."

But TBC turned serious as she added, "The move will allow the show to still remain the staple it was on The CW; we just found that the audience connected with us older women just as much as they connected with the younger ones. I am really pleased with the move, and look forward to our show telling more great stories about the Warren women."

Paul Ruditis, one of the chief writers, relieved panicking fans, announcing that "All the ladies are coming back for Season Two, the foundation and mythology we set up in our first season will progress in Season Two. We will continue to tell great stories for these Warren women."

Ruditis also hinted that the second season might go deeper into the family lives of the Warrens. We could possibly see some backstories forming from some of our ladies.

"Elemental Charmed" is produced by Constance M. Burge in association with CBS Studios.

Classic “Charmed” stars Shannen Doherty and 'Alyssa Milano' to guest star in undisclosed roles for the season finale of 'Elemental Charmed'

The former stars of the original classic series “Charmed have both booked guest-starring roles in the series' upcoming season finale set to air May 19th.

Connie Burge, who created the classic series that starred Shannen Doherty, Holly Marie Combs, Alyssa Milano and Rose McGowan and is executive producer for the new series, had been considering bringing the former stars onto the show for some time. "I've been trying to find suitable roles for Shannen, Alyssa, Holly, and Rose. But I just couldn't find the right story. But after collaboration with Chris Levinson and Zach Estrin, who co-wrote the season finale, we think we’ve found the perfect roles for them."

Doherty revealed that she was called about appearing in "Elemental Charmed" and admits she was hesitant to take the offer. But after hearing what Burge had planned for her character, and then hearing that Burge had talked to Milano who would also be appearing. Doherty felt the timing was right, and that fans of the original classic series would really like what Burge has planned.

Milano told the press: "Just being approached was such an honor. I spent eight years of my life with 'Charmed', so this was almost like a high-school reunion, and when I heard Shannen was also going to be a part of it, I really wanted to do it. I haven't worked with Shannen in nearly 20 years, but the two of us have connected through social media for a while and I can't wait to see her again."

Burge mentioned that she hopes that other stars like Holly Marie Combs, Rose McGowan, Brian Krause and Julian McMahon could appear in the series further down the line. "I don't want to overcrowd this series with too many guest appearances, not when we already have five stars. But it's not out of the question."

Doherty and Milano will start filming their scenes for the season finale in April.

Season 5, Episode 7: 'Homecoming'

PIPER RETURNS HOME - With Piper cleared of all charges, and Peyton keeping her promise to get out of Dodge for now, the other Warrens prepare a welcome home party, but in typical-Warren fashion, it doesn't go without a little trouble. Something is keeping the five Warrens stuck inside Warren Manor. None of their Elemental powers give them a means of escape.

As long as they're stuck, the five women try to sort out their future:

-Phoebe, who only needs a few more credits before finally graduating college, has been given the opportunity of a lifetime - the chance to intern at a major newspaper in Boston - and she'd get to work for her favorite reporter. But despite Salem's proximity to Boston, Phoebe is still wary of being away from her family, especially with Peyton still loose.

-Piper wonders about her own future with her boyfriend, who should return shortly from his business trip. Does she really want to distract her family from the problem of Peyton with the idea of planning a wedding?

-Paige can't stop wondering if she will ever figure out a way to save her daughter, Peyton, and if not, will she be able to figure a way to vanquish her that won't let her return.

-Patience is considering retiring from the police force.

-And Prudence has a health issue that she's trying to keep secret from her family while preparing them for the inevitable.

To their surprise, when Piper's boyfriend walks in the door, the five women can walk out.

As always, feel free to re-edit, comment or ask questions. My edits are always just suggestions.  As usual, I'm not completely thrilled with what we have, so if anyone has suggestions of their own on how to improve it, let's hear them!

Particularly since I've added credits, if anyone wants to PM me any corrections, I'll fix this.

Maybe the second season?

I'd also have it that they can't tap into the full powers. Can't do what our Element Warrens can. I'd add conflict that this coven cant handle the powers.

But I think maybe we could have fun with two stories for Prudence and Patience dealing with the coven and Paige and the rest in Salem with the friend and Piper freaking out her employee is a warlock with the Warlock test.

Maybe no need to involve them all coming together. I'd like two separate stories for a few episodes.

We could certainly do that, Ruth. I agree that having Piper freaking out about another employee being a warlock, and this being how they do the warlock test like in 'They're Everywhere' would be a fun story for the Warrens in Salem. 

We could even ditch the whole plot about Bridget and her coven trying to steal their powers, and let Prudence and Patience just solve the murder of one of the members in Philadelphia, and stopping Bridget instead, minus the part in stealing powers or Maybe Bridget even tries to even frame Prudence or Patience for the murder or even Andrea. Lots of possibilities.  

Unless others like the idea of Bridget and her coven being the big bads of a season of 'Elemental Charmed'. What does everyone else think? 

[Granny Charmed]

I actually like the idea of Bridget and the coven being the big bads dears.

[summerreading]

I'm glad you do Granny. I just think we need to come up with a storyline, or further develop what Pheebs already came up with.

But Bridget being the one to get Andrea ill, that would send Prudence and Patience to town to help her, while her other members of the coven dealing with the Warren's in Salem, and one of them having to pretend to be a friend for months is very interesting.

I just think we need to get a much better motivation for why they are doing this with wanting to steal their powers.

Pheebs might have an explanation for her ideas, so I hope she can clarify it for us?

[Granny Charmed]

All part of the fun of brainstorming dear. We can have two *totally* different stories with the same basic idea and story arc. One taking the arc this direction and the other doing it another way. Then find a way to combine them together later.

I look forward to seeing what you all come up with. Looks like we do have a storyarc on our hands now.

That's exactly right. No right or wrong way to do it. Someone may have an idea someone or others didn't consider.

I do like them being part of an arc.

Maybe they do something to convince Prudence, Paige or Andrea and make them think they killed a member of the coven with an illusion or like what Barbas did to Phoebe in Sympathy for the Demon when she thought she killed Paige. Certainly could be a warlock power or something, or they are working with one or someone else.

Nothing says, you can't have it both ways. A story with the coven in Philadelphia and then bring them or the surviving ones back later in a season for the end of season arc?

Love Dangerous Desires. what a fantastic episode on our hands.

Still think S4 or now S5 plots need fixing. Since its only 12 episodes and I'm sure Summer, you didn't know what we were heading towards for seasons. I think we could play it that Peyton isn't on the loose for long maybe 2-3 episodes.

I'd love a Halloween episode too. It will fall nicely in S4 on Oct 31st since we might aim for 5, so it wouldn't be in the final season. It would be in Season 4. Are we going to plot a birthday episode for one of the Warrens. Maybe even Prudence's 70th in S1 or Patience's 50th. Maybe we should get birthdays and dates sorted in the character thread.

OH! I almost wish we could change Prudence's age to 69, Patience's to 49, Paige's to 39, Piper to 29 and Phoebe to 19 just so we could celebrate each of their "0" birthdays. Although if we do that, you'd almost want to celebrate it each year and TV years just aren't the same as real years, with birthdays coming up at strange times during the series.

But Prudence hitting 70 (too bad she won't be hitting 75, but we'd have to wait til S6 for that, and that would be way too many episodes!) or Patience hitting 50...especially if they're something like my family where my brother's birthday October 9th, my sister's is October 11th and my mom's is October 14th, so we always celebrated all three together - that's definitely an interesting idea... And if like Melinda Warren, if our Mary Ann Warren (or even Jenna Warren)'s birthday was on Halloween with both Prudence's and Patience's birthday near Halloween...that could truly be fun! It could be a good introduction to them before they show up in the S1 finale and the S2 series premiere.... No need to show them - kinda like what happened in 'Something Wicca This Way Comes' where Melinda was mentioned and not shown... just mention them...

What do you guys think? If we come up with a good birthday idea, I'll gladly shove Prudence's starting age to 69 and Patience's to 49.

That sounds great or we could give each Warren just one birthday episode throughout the series but just one. Depends on if the idea is good. 

[prudencehalliwell]

This coven story could also work Witch Stock in. But just the part of the warlocks pretending to be Prudence's friend like the one who was with Grams.

You guys are really set on this story it seems. Look forward to how this arc develops.

If any magical creatures are added, Definitely hope we consider in terms of Classic Charmed canon of S1-3. Also make them part of the standalones and that's it.

I really think not too many really. Not to the extent S5-8 was.

Pheebs I liked that you had them invisible to all even witches but that Patience's earth element meant she was the only one who could communicate. 

I really will hate them not being invisible or a little less mysterious and unseen. 

Using the earth element to communicate with them. I absolutely love.

Exactly so - wouldn't want to do it just for the sack of having a birthday episode. I love the idea and press release for Paige and Phoebe's. That episode I liked very much.

I had some fun of my own last night coming up with my own, taking on-board everyone's ideas, and rewrote Pheebs press releases. So in my next post, I'll start sharing my ideas. Maybe later we can find a way to combine them all at a later date.

Season 2, Episode 16: 'The Isaac Flower'

ONE TOUCH OF A FLOWER COULD CAUSE THE DEATH OF THREE WARRENS FOREVER — It's Spring Time in Salem, and Prudence does some much-needed spring planting and tends to Warren family garden and herbs. She asks Phoebe to head to the local store for some ingredients, and to local Wicca herbs and spices stores for more magical needs.

Phoebe has all the stuff she needs on her list but notices a new store has opened up opposite their regular herbs and spices store across the street. She enters the store, and a young woman raves about a certain 'Issac Flower', but when Phoebe comes home with it and places it on her windowsill, it begins to drain Phoebe of her energy upon touch. Little does she know, each time she buys another flower, it continues to drain her more and more to the point of death.

The next morning, Both Piper's restaurant & Paige's social services begin to house said flowers, and the same effects begin to happen to them and more and more people begin to suffer the same effects. Eventually, Prudence learns what's up with a Premonition, and stops Patience before she can touch her own flowered gift.

After reading the book of shadows, Prudence and Patience both learn that the Issac Flower is draining people to the point of death, because the young woman selling them is really a warlock using all the lifeform from people in order to revive her mother, who was cursed a long time ago to remain in a slumber state and become one with the flowers, because a century ago, she had endangered the local forests of Salem and was harming the Wood Nymphs.

Although the Nymphs are completely invisible to all humans including Witches, Patience has the ability to communicate with them due to her Elemental Power of Earth, but can only hear and communicate with them, and still unable to see them.

Now time is running out for Prudence and Patience to save Paige, Piper and Phoebe and the citizens of Salem affected by the Issac Flower, who begin to enter a trance, and all head to the warlock's garden, for the final steps in order to revive her mother from her slumber and break the curse.

As always, feel free to re-edit, comment or ask questions. If you want to re-edit this whole arc completely, go for it. If you have other ideas, let us all know here?

For now, I've put these as part of our Second Season. Just because of all the requests and ideas on possibly having it being as part of an arc. Again, anyone is free to change it, or revert back to the original ideas Pheebs came up with?

I'm not as satisfied with this as I originally hoped.

What do you all think?
