Witch Hunter (Being)

Witch Hunters are mortal vigilantes that hunt down witches and kill them without trial. They are known to develop a sense of hatred towards witches, magical or practitioners, because of what they can do and their gifts.

In 2031, a witch hunter by the name of Maddox Hawthorne began killing women all along the East Coast. He claimed that it was his destiny and that witches were evil. He burned a woman named April Carter in Philadelphia and then traveled to San Francisco for the Halliwell girls. Maddox had captured Prue, Melinda, Charlotte, Cassandra, Pandora and Tamora and tied them to a stake to be burned. Maddox hung some amulets around the area and blocked the girls' powers. They were fortunately rescued by Wyatt, Chris, Junior, Damon and Michael; the latter removing the amulets so the Halliwells' magic could work. Chris cast a spell on Maddox to confuse his memories once he'd been handcuffed by Junior. Maddox was then taken to jail for murdering over a dozen women.

Notes and Trivia

 * This event had scared Tamora pretty badly and her powers were frozen where she couldn't use them. This is because, Tamora's biggest fear is being burned alive at the stake by a witch hunter, because of her Wiccan heritage. This is also the first of many times her fear would be used against her.
