Magic[]
Claireis a twiceblessed royal, which makes her unique even within the royals. Her bloodlines are the Silverstone Bloodline and the Greene Bloodline which grant her several special powers on top of the elemental powers she has.
Claire has basic powers like all witches:
- Geokinesis: Like all witches Claire can manipulate elements derived from the earth in a basic form.
- Advances Agrokinesis: As a witch from the Greene Bloodline Claire has a stronger connection to fauna and flora.
- Portaling: Claire can, like all other royals, use a portal to transfer to another dimension. Being born in the Silverstone House, she has a close connection to the portal in the attic and can sense it from a distance.
- Advanced spellcasting: Claire has studied both her ancestral bloodline's spells, but later gains a dangerous interest in bloodmagic. Claire was close to creating a resurrection spell using bloodmagic, but she never finished it. Claire notably tried altering the common known boundary spell that she and Payton used to protect Waterfall Creek in Season One. After it went horribly wrong, Claire has spent up to a year perfecting it and she has been entrusted with applying it to The Silverstone House amongst other important locaitons.
As a twiceblessed witch, her magic manifested in some specific special powers that she was born with.
- Protection shield: Claire has a protected shield, visible to the human eye as a glowing bright bubble. Claire did not know she possessed the power until she was fighting off Jared Carrington. Claire regained this power in Season Four after they were returned their powers.
- Advanced Photokinesis: Claire can control light, both natural and synthetic. She can brighten rooms that do not have a source of light.
- Mindreading: Claire can read the minds of people around them. The only one she can't read minds of is Payton, whose own empathic powers tune Claire out. Through practice, Claire is able to tune out people's thoughts and only "opens them up" if she intents to. After controlling her power more as she gets older, she asks people's consent unless it's an emergency.
- Astral projection: From Season Four onwards, Claire has the ability to do astral projection. This power originally presenting itself while she was asleep or unconcious, and it was believed to be her mindreading ability at first. Claire later got control of the new power and was able to conciously project herself to another room throughout Season Four. Later on she also was able to actively use her powers while in projected form. Through practice, she reached the peak of her power by tactile projecting an entire group of people in Season Seven.
