Life Draining, also known as Life Force Absorption, is the power to drain the life force out of other beings to sustain or rejuvenate oneself. This may result in the victim being severely weakened or rapidly aged. If victims are completely drained, however, this ability will lead to their death.

Examples

  • Javna used this ability to steal the life force of young women to remain youthful. His victims were rapidly aged to become frail and elderly versions of themselves.[1]
  • Necron was a skeletal being hovering between life and death. To sustain himself, he required the life force of other beings. His victims were turned to dust as Necron took their life through Electrokinesis.[2]
  • The Parasite Demons were two demons cursed by a witch and left severely weakened. In order to survive, they required the magic and life of other beings.[3]
  • The Spider demon can drain the life and magic of other beings by inserting her fingers into her victims and quickly draining them.[4]
  • Captain Black Jack Cutting possessed a cursed athame that would drain the youth of victims when cut.[5]
  • Billie Jenkins once unintentionally sucked the life out of a plant with her Projection power after making a remark about her parents "sucking the life out of this place".[6]

Notes and Trivia

  • The Empyreal Sword sustained itself by draining the life force of its master. Since only Whitelighters or former Whitelighters could wield it, Leo was able to access its power through his dormant Whitelighter genes, but it was slowly killing him until Prue Halliwell broke their bond by merging the sword with her body.
