Source of All Evil



The Source of All Evil is a major antagonist in the TV show Charmed. He is an extremely powerful demon who is the ruler of the underworld. He is portrayed by Michael Bailey Smith, Bennet Guillory and Peter Woodward over the course of the series and had a brief resurrection in one episode during the show's eighth season.

He was responsible for incarcerating the powerful demon Zankou and The Tall Man. He is also responsible for banishing numerous beings from the underworld, such as: The vampires, wizards, Kurzon and possibly even Hecate.

Among his many demonic powers are throwing fireballs, teleportation (flaming), manipulating flame, shape-shifting, summoning demons and evil beings, mind control, and possession. He sends numerous demons after the Halliwell sisters during the development of various plots in the series' eight seasons, including the Triad and so indirectly the half-human/half-demon love interest of Phoebe Halliwell, Belthazor/Cole Turner. He later puts a bounty on Cole's head when the latter turns good.
