Jenny Gordon

Jenny Gordon is the niece of Dan Gordon and, at one time, next-door neighbor and friend of the Charmed Ones.

History

Moving In and Befriending the Halliwells

Jenny moved to Prescott Street with her uncle, Dan. She was living with her uncle while her parents were in Saudi Arabia, due to her father's work in the state department which frequently made them relocate to a new place. Shortly after moving in, Dan asked the Halliwell sisters if Jenny could talk to them for female advice whenever she was too embarrassed to tell him.

After Jenny found out that Dishwalla was playing at P3, she snuck into the club to watch the band play and was then consumed by Masselin. She was later saved by Piper, Prue and Phoebe when they vanquished the demon. Leo then wiped her memory of the traumatic experience.

Jenny later befriended a boy named Kyle Gwydion, who was the Chosen One destined to vanquish the evil witch Tuatha. He asked if she believed in magic and then demonstrated it with Tuatha's Wand by making it spin on top of his index finger. She later gave him advice and helped him believe in himself.

Departure

By early 2000, Jenny had moved back in with her parents.
