Background
Chris was born on October 25th, 2004 in San Francisco, California to Piper Halliwell, a Witch, and Leo Wyatt, an Elder at that time. At the time of his birth, everyone was paying more attention to Chris, not Wyatt which lead to him orbing Chris all over creation. However, Grams was able to cast a spell to stop the sibling rivalry. Chris didn't come into his powers until late 2006 when he helped his big brother, Wyatt, cheating in a game of Candy Land against their grandfather by orbing cards around. After Wyatt was kidnapped by Billie and Christy, Victor urged Chris to orb Wyatt back again and Chris did it so successfully. Since he was a little boy, Chris always was very protective about the family secret. That makes him not trust in anybody outside his family.

Soon his parents told him about his other “him” and his mission of saving Wyatt from becoming evil. He soon realized that he had to keep an eye on his brother because of that. This makes them best friends, being Chris not only brother but Wyatt´s right hand and confidant.

Chris had a normal childhood. When he was 11, he was visited by his future self along with his brother and cousin Prue´s future self when they were trying to stop Phoebe from being killed by a demon.

He went to school and high school and was the best of his class. He was not so popular like Wyatt not because he was covered by Wyatt´s shadows but because he rather be that way. In high school, Chris found out what career he wanted to follow. Photography was his passion. He had a genuine gift to photography just like his Aunt Prue. But it was not the only characteristic he took from her. At college and after taking a few courses of photography, Chris studied Photojournalism. He chose to go to the same college as Wyatt and Demon. A while after he finished college, he started working at the Bay Mirror as a photographer assistant and soon started taking jobs by himself.

Chris has a very good relationship with his parents and is extremely close to his grandfather, Victor. Having some memories from his other life makes him feel a little confused and fearing that somehow that present comes to his actual present.

This Chris is more relaxed than his other Chris but not less obsessed and doesn't want to be on his brother shadow but doesn't show inferiority complex.

Chris bears a striking resemblance to his deceased aunt, Prue. Even their personalities are stated to be similar, like being extremely serious to somewhat obsessed with demon hunting as well as their devotion to family, and being incredibly stubborn. Those characteristics are shared by his cousin Prue too, which makes them really closed.

When it comes to love, Chris gives all he has, but the fact that he is so protective with the family secret that it keeps him away from being 100% with someone. Chris is not the dating type. But when he does, he is faithful to the woman he is with.
