Belthazor was a very powerful Upper-Level Demon who had been around for one hundred years. Actually, being half-demon and half-human, he was the demon alter ego of Cole Turner. His father, Benjamin Coleridge Turner, was human and his mother, Elizabeth, was pure demon. He made his first appearance in the season 3 episode "Once Upon a Time." Because of his half-demonic ancestry, his blood is red even in demon form (Sleuthing with the Enemy).

Powers and AbilitiesEdit

Belthazor was a powerful demon, he had killed countless witches, demons and innocents before Belthazor's human half fell in love with Phoebe Halliwell. Belthazor was one of the most powerful, feared demons and respected in the Underworld. He later battled Sykes, who had a similar demonic form as him and was killing witches. He lost control of himself when he embraced his demonic side completely and was vanquished as Belthazor but survived as Cole and became an innocent due to being vanquished by a power-stripping potion. He later returned when Cole changed reality to be with Phoebe but never changed into his demonic form.

Prue re-wrote the magic calling magic spell (used to summon Melinda Warren) to create the Belthazor Summoning Spell. Prue and Piper cast the spell to summon Belthazor, the first time he avoided their call, however since he was on the run, the second time a bounty hunter named Krell intercepted their spell. They later cast the spell again, this time aware it would summon Krell as he wanted to help them find Belthazor. ("Sleuthing with the Enemy")

In episode "All Halliwell's Eve," Cole was able to travel in time with a special potion. In" Bride and Gloom," Cole used Illusion and said that he had learned this trick from the Demon of Illusion. In "The Honeymoon's Over," he uses incineration to set a demon on fire. In episode "Magic Hour," Cole was able to swap books.

AppendicesEdit

(Book of Shadows text:)

BelthazorEdit

Beware of this Demonic

Soldier of Fortune. Both powerful and

dangerous, he has destroyed countless

witches, innocents, and demons.

As sinister as he

is intelligent, he is not to be trusted,

Belthazor's known abilities include

throwing energy balls and shimmering

from place to place, but his powers are

probably not limited to these capabilities.

Because there is no known way to defeat him,

Belthazor should be avoided at all costs.

AppearanceEdit

With his red skin, black tribal markings, decayed yellow teeth, black eyes and pointy ears, Belthazor remains the most recognizable demon from the Charmed series. Aside from his large stature, Belthazor usually was present wearing his trademark outfit - a dapper black suit. His appearance did not change over the course of his existence except for sometimes he was presented in a fitted black T-shirt rather than a suit.

NotesEdit

• The make-up design for the demon Belthazor was based on the same make-up style used for the character of Darth Maul in Star Wars: Episode I - The Phantom Menace.
• The Book of Shadows contains a potion/spell specifically to vanquish Belthazor, this creates a contradiction to the main page for Belthazor which states that there is no known way to defeat him. It is possible that this was correct prior to the discovery of a vanquishing potion by a later generation.
• In the episode "Sleuthing with the Enemy," Prue and Piper are making the vanquishing potion. Piper will make this potion once again with Paige in the episode "Black as Cole," this time to vanquish a demon similar to Belthazor, Sykes. The two will make the potion again in an alternate reality in "Centennial Charmed."
• In the spell for the vanquishing potion, the Beasts of Hoof refers to the pigs feet, and the Beasts of Shell refers to the cockle shells.
• Belthazor has the most pages in the Book of Shadows dedicated to him; having four. The Cole Turner page was written by Phoebe, his main page was written by an unknown ancestor.

Belthazor appeared in a total of 10 episodes and 1 comic issue throughout the course of the series.
