Deflection

From Charmed

Vivian uses her deflection power

Deflection is a powerful magical power that allows its user to repel magical attacks when consciously activated.

The warlock Eames once killed a powerful witch, named Vivian, with this power, stealing it in his plot to kill all whitelighters. He used it to deflect Prue Halliwell's attempt to use telekinesis to throw him, her telekinesis deflected onto her, sending her flying back instead. When Piper tried to freeze him the first time it had no effect on her because a good witch can't freeze, but the second time she used her power with more force so when Eames deflected it she was sent flying back into a cabinet. Later when vanquishing him, the Charmed Ones had to counteract all of his powers in a spell. Phoebe wrote the line countering his deflection power, noting it sounded rather "country western": "I'm rejectin' yer deflection!" ("Blinded by the Whitelighter")

[edit] Deflection

Bestowed upon one witch in
a generation, the Power of
Deflection is a witch's best
shield against the forces of
Darkness. Deflection can be
used against all Supernatural
powers, including those of
Good, and, potentially, it could
be manipulated to defend evil as well.
Like a shield, the Deflection power must be
consciously activated; therefore, a Witch with
this power is vulnerable when unaware of an
impending supernatural attack.
