While I love Phoebe's carefree attitude and open-mindedness (at least in the beginning) I don't like how her character developed or rather didn't develop. I feel like her character was one of those that had the most room to grow and it was just a let down that she didn't. Phoebe was the part of their soul that was childish, outgoing, street-smart, and romantic. While Sophie held the book-smart, conservative, family-oriented, mature part.
Sophie is going to be more of a conscious inside of Phoebe at least until the 'Dominus Trinus' spell (gives the Charmed Ones their power is said; S1E1) or votes swing otherwise. As such though, Prue and Piper will notice the little bursts of Sophie's maturity and responsibility shining through as Phoebe grows up with them but are continuously disappointed when Phoebe destroys it by doing something careless.

Important A/N:
Re-watching Charmed, I remembered that Phoebe was born in the Manor and was likely the 1st [at least Warren witch] to be born 'above' the Nexus as hospital births became commonplace after the early 1900s especially in large cities. I can't help thinking that this would have some sort of effect on her aside from 'being more susceptible' to influences of either side then her sisters (which I think is crap) and Sophie having passed through when entering the Charmed 'verse. Instead of being more susceptible I think as the Nexus itself is neutral it would have made her the same if anything.
Should it have a further effect on her and her powers though? If so when should it happen? The when will play into power development as I plan on making the sisters reach their potential which we only got a peek of when they went to the future in S2E2.
A) No Effect aside from being 'Voice of Conscious' until S1E1
B) Has An Affect on Her ('Voice of Conscious' until S1E1 unless otherwise stated). Pick one below.
(Through the Nexus she gains an immunity to attacks she has a similar power to)
Choices
(Regeneration/Self-Healing for all below when in Prescott St. Home/ Center of Nexus)
1) Minor Nexus connection combined with Phoebe spelling into her Past-self (Acquires S2E14):
Teleporting (Smoke-Fading and eventually Dusting)
Pyrokinesis/Firestarter
Immunity to fire-based attacks such as fireballs; A force pushing at her but not burning
2) Woogyman powers (acquires S1E15) influenced by Nexus' Augmentation:
Shadow Conjuration, Travel & Blasts (eventual progression)
Immunity to Shadow-blasts
Able to sense shadow demons
3) Her soul coming through the Nexus before settling in an unborn Phoebe had a Major Effect:
A Charmed One 'temporarily' and becomes The Nexus Witch after Paige's arrival
The Elder's falsely believed the 'guardian(s)' was merely whoever held the Manor and Nexus as 'The Symbolic Seat of Power'.
Becoming the Nexus Witch moves her into Neutrality instead of 'Good or Evil' because of this Personal Gain becomes more draining than actually creating backfires.
In addition to the powers above she can create an Electric Forcefield (seen in S1E15 to keep Prue and Piper out of the house when possessed by the Woogyman), can use Shadow Manipulation to bend Shadows (currently demons) to her will (removing them from the forces of evil and becoming a neutral messenger as they once were before the Nexus became a battleground for good and evil with evil claiming them).
If option 3 then:
Sophie gets semi-control instead of being Phoebe's 'annoying and loud conscience' while growing up but, ONLY for a a few hours (max 6) a day (becomes stronger as Sophie does it more often) and can control how much she wants Phoebe to know (making it seems as though she did something for longer than she actually did).
Eventually gains the Nexus Tome (Symbol: Inverted triquetra centered within larger triquetra and a sword connecting the two).
The Nexus Tome contains all entries, spells, and potions that existed/created above the Nexus it is from and can only be touched by the Nexus Witch and those from her line (maybe add another way later on?). This means any personal books with pages on super-natural entities, spells, or potions that were created but not added to the Book of Shadows will be in here (has an Index) and if a better version of the spell/potion is created it will replace the other unless it has different levels of effect.
Much like the Book of Shadows it can protect itself but is not powered by the Charmed Ones, the Warren line, or Nexus Witch but rather the energies released around the Nexus (entire area within & surrounding the pentagram seen in S1E15; Picture a circle encasing it and you have the area which the Tome draws the energy to power itself).
Past/Future Lover(s): What Sophie Remembers
Clay Muniz: Ex-boyfriend from when she lived in NY (Phoebe will move a year earlier than canon) before Phoebe remembers being Sophie and they merge.
Jason Dean: In Canon they met shortly after Wyatt's birth when he became the new owner of The Bay Mirror. They eventually started online dating though Phoebe didn't realize it was him. Phoebe moved to Hong Kong with him. Their relationship ended shortly after he found out Phoebe's secret as he was furious with her for not telling him sooner though it ended on good terms.
Cole Turner/ Belthazor: A half-demon born in the 19th century. He was Phoebe's first real love and husband until he was, unknown to the Charmed Ones, possessed by the Source. With her sister's urging and the evil within Cole taking over he is vanquished (temporarily) and Phoebe's love turns to hate until the sisters eventually vanquish him permanently.
Sophie believes that in the show Phoebe never actually loved him but rather the idea of him and that he had been willing to do whatever it took to be with her. She believes Cole subserviated his human-half for so long (believing it to be separate; like a split personality) that he could not distinguish real love from 'puppy love' (mixed with lust) only for it to turn into obsession when he was continuously rejected only to be drawn back into the Charmed Ones' lives repeatedly.
A/N: The original hubby! Should he be end-game? I always hated how Cole was the one blamed for things that went wrong when he wasn't even fully in control. Even with the Source blocking her visions why couldn't she see that he wasn't himself? Yet when her and Paige accidently switched bodies he figured out something was wrong almost immediately and began trying to figure it out.
A/N2: Meme800822 popped this brilliant idea in my head so here it is.
Possible Pairing Endgame:
1) Cole Turner
2) OMC (Details & Options Below):
He will be Cole Turner's younger half-brother who is a Whitelighter-Demon hybrid. In this case Elizabeth Turner would have once been a skilled witch who was in a relationship with her Whitelighter but turned to evil and participated in a demonizing ritual. The Elders blamed the relationship as the reason her Whitelighter didn't notice her hunger for power, and it then became forbidden for a Whitelighter to be with their charge.
Sometime after Elizabeth becomes an upper-level demon and has given birth to Cole the two former lovers end up running into each other. The Whitelighter tries to remind her of who she used to be only for her to trick him into sleeping with her again before killing him. While Cole embraces the darkness in him and let it rule him the OC won't. Despite their differences and the challenge of it they still acknowledge each other as brothers because of the abuse suffered under their mother.
OMC Face Claim Options:
A) Andrew Lees
Lees is the shortest at 5'9 with hazel eyes. Much like Julian he has dimples on both cheeks, a similar shape to his brows, and a lean body type. He also has the sharpest jawline of each possible face-claim. He has the youngest and closest appearance to Julian so I'm not sure about him as I want there to be more differences between the two to emphasize on them being half brothers.
B) Daniel Gillies
Daniel Gillies is 5'11 with brown eyes, the closest nose shape, similar hairline, and would show the same penchant for suits due to TVD and TO (Elijah Mikaelson gifs) which could be attributed to him looking up to Cole in some ways and following him into a law-based career.
C) Henry Cavill
Henry Cavill is 6'1 and like Julian has blue eyes (slightly brighter then Julian's), a similar hairline and chin cleft (more pronounced on Cavill). While the closest in height his muscular frame is the farthest in similarity to Julian's lean one unless as Belthazor. (My favorite so far but that could be my crush on him talking)
A/N: BTW is it just me or does he usually look far more comfortable out of suits then in them?
Important Decision A/N:
Should I have OC Phoebe have the same money difficulties the original had with being in debt and yada-yada or should I make it so she somehow earns or comes into money?
A) Yes, she has Phoebe's money trouble
B) No, she has a way to pay it off and basically start fresh upon arrival (S1E1)
If Choice B then Choose How:
1) Lotto; Sophie influences Phoebe to purchase a ticket during one of the bus stops to San Francisco once they've crossed into California and uses her birthday which made the winning numbers for that night.
A/N: So October 7,1998 (Canon Start Date & Fact) the Powerball was $14 Mil and the numbers were 6-8-9-15-26-PB7. W hich would be Sophie's birthday backwards as she was born July (7) 26 at 15:09 in '86.
2) Money from her previous life 'finds it way' to her after S1E1, including the insurance money her parents would have left to her if she lived. The money will come as an inheritance left to her by an elderly couple that share her parents' names. The reason stated will be that she spent time with them (helping out) and they viewed her as a daughter, having no children themselves.
3) Only if Sophie becomes Nexus witch: Sophie begins a blog when in control to make funds and a bank account that she hides from Phoebe not wanting to deal with Phoebe's money issues that were brought on by her carelessness.
While the sisters say the house is above the Nexus I think it would be only one possible access point and the easiest. The Nexus actually lied under Prescott St. It's just easier to say it's under the Manor because it already has access because of the Warren line.
Anyways, you guys choose where she lives after settling into life and witchcraft!
A) Halliwell Manor: 1329 Prescott 4 Bed/ 2 Bath(Has slightly sloped lot); Leaves when married?
B) 1328 Prescott 5 Bed/ 3 +2 half Baths (Across the Street; Larger Flat Lot; Has Basement)
After Reno: Due to demons wrecking the house (either through murder of previous owners, fighting amongst themselves, lack of upkeep or whatever reason) the majority of the interior needs to be redone which will lower purchase cost. If chosen you can pick the original house or the new one. I put a pic of each below (Those who cannot see it I'll be putting it on my Pinterest which can be found on my profile). House has thin blue siding with white trim Victorian detailing, a greyish-purple shingle roof, double entry door with stained glass, and an L-shaped porch with a corner gazebo. Unlike Halliwell Manor there is no side yard only the front and back due to the house being larger and the attic can only be accessed through a hidden passageway in the master bedroom.
C) 1327 Prescott 3 bed/2 bath (Dan's House; Slightly sloped lot; No Basement)
Description: This house has light yellow siding, white trim, a brick foundation, a dark grey roof, and a small front porch (light grey roof and wrap around porch if not original house). This house's side yard and the Halliwell's driveway border each other [Going Left to Right it goes: 1327, Driveway, Yard, 1329 (Halliwell's) Driveway]. It has a single car garage to the side. (Imagine it detached)
