Telekinetic Orbing is the ability to move and teleport objects through use of orbs. This power is a hybrid combination of the powers Orbing and Telekinesis, where instead of moving the object with the mind alone, the object is moved through use of orbs.

This power is possessed by several Whitelighter-Witches, the children of a Whitelighter and a Witch. This power was first seen used by Paige Matthews and was considered a rare power, through it has become a somewhat common power with the revelation and birth of more Whitelighter-Witches.

OverviewEdit

OrbingEdit

The possessor orb objects from one location to another through a vocal command: for example; when Paige vocally calls the name of an object it will disappear from it's current location in a glow of orbs only to appear again in a glow of orbs in another location (most commonly the users hand) a moment later.

However, if the user do not know the name of the object, he or she can still orb it by using a name which describes it. Paige has used these descriptions "pointy thing" or "icky stuff" to call objects, and the objects comes to her.

Paige will eventually out-grow the limitation of having to verbally state the name of an object to orb it. This was revealed in 2001, when she temporarily entered Limbo, she was able to orb the Dragon blade to her, by holding out her hand and mentally called for it. She was also able to send the blade into Phoebe's hand by will alone.^[1]

Orbing will not work on Excalibur if the wielder resists the power. It will also not work if the user knows absolutely nothing about the object(s) they want to orb: for example; Paige was once asked to magic (orb) things out of a locked safe, but she replied that she couldn't, because she did not know what the contents were.^[2]

MovementEdit

The possessor can move, impede and control things through a vocal command: for example; Paige once sent a metal bar flying into two Thorn Demons by stating its name as ugly metal thing. This was the closest the power ever came in resembling actual telekinesis. at demons.

Initially, Paige would teleport objects, usually into her hand, and then move or direct them into the direction she wanted. However, as she became more comfortable with her power, she began to move things without activating the teleportation side of her power. Paige normally use this method to stop objects/powers in mid-air, before deviating them back into the direction they came from.

As she gained even greater control over her power, Paige began to use both methods, orbing and movement, in rapid succession: for example; she once called for a Auger Shell and send it flying in another direction without ever touching it, giving it mental orders where to go. By 2005 she was able to lift and throw two demons into walls.

In Season 9, Paige is able to move things without calling out a name, but by commanding them to move in a certain way: for example; moving a demon out of her way by shouting "clear a path!" Paige was also able to move Prue across a room without saying her name, but by commanding her to "stay back".

Powers developed from Telekinetic OrbingEdit

Remote OrbingEdit

Main article: Remote Orbing

Remote Orbing is the ability to teleport other beings from one location to another through use of orbs without establishing physical contact. Users can simply wave their hand to send others to a desired location.

Paige's powers advanced to this level some time in 2004. She first displayed this power when she orbed Phoebe back to the manor with the wave of her hand. Both adult and baby Chris have also displayd this power.

Orb ShieldEdit

Main article: Force Field

Orb Shields are spheres of telekinetic energy that can protect or contain things within and repel outside threats. Paige gained the power to create Orb Shields in "Innocents Lost". The hybrid aspect of her telekinetic ability also applies to this power, causing the shield to materialize as a sphere of concentrated orbs.
