Prudence Jackson

Prudence Jackson (b. 1689, Salem, MA) was a witch born in Salem in 1689 to one of the most powerful witches of all time.

Biography
In 1692, Prudence's mother was outed as a witch and burned at the stake. Though she could have escaped using her magical gifts, Melinda feared that if she did so, she would be proving her charge and her children would be burned as witches too. Therefore, her mother accepted her fate to save her children and to ensure that the Warren line would continue.

After getting engaged to Michael Wentworth, Prudence decided to give up her magical powers in order to live a life with him as a mortal. However, she assisted her time-traveling collateral descendants in defeating a demon, which exposed her status as a witch to Michael. Much to Prudence's surprise, Michael accepted her as a witch and convinced her to keep her powers.

Powers and Abilities
Witchcraft: As a daughter of one of the most powerful witches of all time, it is assumed that Prudence was also a powerful witch in her own right. However, Prudence also may have not been as strong of a witch as her mother due to her own unique abilities being weaker than those of her mother's and the fact that she was willing to give up her abilities to become a mortal.

Telekinesis: Prudence had the ability to move objects with the power of her mind alone. However, her telekinetic gift seems to sway from her mother's prophecy that states "with each generation of Warren witches growing stronger", since Prudence's power of telekinesis was extremely weak. When she attempted to deflect a simple fireball, she only caused it to break into several smaller fireballs that went in various different directions.

Premonition: Like her mother, Prudence also possessed the ability to receive visions of the past, present, and future. However, it is unknown how powerful Prudence's version of this ability was. According to her mother, Prudence should have developed a more powerful version of this ability than her mother but, as evident with Prudence's telekinetic power, this was not the case.
