Appearance
Trish is a perfect mix of her parents and an identical twin of Kat, though they have their slight differences.
 * Hair: Trish has long waist length dark brown hair a shade lighter than Kat's and parted on the right and naturally wavy. To look different from her sister she cuts it and adds red streaks through stylish new waves as a statement though she always wears it up to go to bed or when she has been doing some type of sport.
 * Appearance: In terms of appearance, Trish is a very extraordinarily beautiful and attractive young woman; she has an oval face, light olive complexion and almond shaped dark brown eyes, a shade lighter than her sister's eyes, often described as doe eyes with thick dark lashes. She is tall at 5'6" and slightly smaller than Kat although both sisters are slim, with a slightly athletic physique. With make-up Trish prefers wearing a thin bronze smokey eyeliner with a light shade of lipstick and nail polish.
 * Wardrobe: Trish has a very different style to Kat with a fairly casual, sporty and "girl next door" look to her unless forced to dress up, tending to favor dark jeans with t-shirts of various colors and converse sneakers. Though she has become slightly more sophisticated in her looks changing to dresses and boots or even going with the skinny jeans, cute jackets. Trish is always seen wearing her pink Wicca Charm bracelet and, a locket with a red ruby on it.

Personality
Trish is seen as being a very brave, patient, kind and sensitive young girl with a sweet and optimistic nature with her believing in the good in everyone. Often credited for having a strong sense of what's morally right and just. She is highly intelligent and loves nature, though she is fairly shy and tries to resolve things peacefully with her having a strong dislike for aggression. Unlike her sister, Trish is a very forgiving person which she shows fairly often even if someone she cares about lies to her and demonstrates a quick mind. She is also shown to be courageous, determined and is fairly shy.

Likely the most kindest person in the family, Trish is also very strong tempered, and strong-willed but struggles with being a pushover, and when her Mother died, she fell apart with her being so close to her Mom. Trish is often seen as being the peacemaker in her family being the calm to Kat's storm as well as her being the smart and responsible one. She prefers to use her brain more than her brawn but she's a powerful witch, despite being more whitelighter. Trish is also quite insecure in the way the world works but she is brave and will do anything for family even if she is a bit of a pushover and like her powers she is a warm person.

As a Warren witch, Trish is found to be stubborn and sarcastic though being more whitelighter than witch with her being a pacifist and only ever really getting involved in a demon hunt when her family is in trouble and is considered as the good twin. She is the patient and loving type, but can also be very strong and practical when she doesn't get what she wants. She is a very kind, with a sweet nature as well as being more logical than impulsive in comparison to her sister with her being known as the one with common sense. She is also seen as being the mom with her siblings and is highly protective over their baby brother.

Active Powers

 * Molecular Acceleration: The ability to speed up molecules, causing objects to catch fire. Channeling the ability through her hands, this was the first power that Trish obtained having used it for the first time on her second birthday with her setting fire to the sofa. Henry considered binding her powers, though Paige believed that that could make it harder for Trish in the future to use and control her powers.
 * Molecular Combustion: The ability to speed up molecules to the point that they explode. Channeling the ability with a hand gesture, and was the second ability Kat ever used being a natural progression of Trish's other powers, though it took her a long time to develop and learn to control, but with help from her Aunt Piper, Trish soon learned how to control the ability and has become very effective with the ability.
 * Pyrokinesis: The ability to generate and manipulate fire and heat. Trish like her other abilities channels this power with her hands allowing with hot air to come from her finger tips. This is by far Trish's most powerful ability however she is terrified of using the ability and hurting someone, so mostly uses the ability at Magic school where it is safer to use.

Whitelighter Powers

She also uses the ability whenever it is necessary.
 * Healing: The ability to heal the injuries and wounds of others. Unlike her sister, Trish has become great at healing others, and it is the only ability that she doesn't appear to weaken. It is also believed that her healing is more advanced due to her more passive nature, and is said to be just as good and powerful as a whitelighter or elders healing abilities.
 * Sensing: The ability to locate charges as well as the family. Although she has full control over her powers, she does tend to make her abilities seem weaker when with Kat, by using them along with her. She does try to help strengthen both her abilities and Kat's by playing hide and seek with her sensing.
 * Cloaking: The ability to hide yourself or someone magically from others. Although she has full control over her powers, she does tend to make her abilities seem weaker when with Kat, by using them along with her. She does try to help strengthen both her abilities and Kat's by playing hide and seek with her cloakng.
 * Glamouring: The ability to change one's appearance into the form of another. Though Trish doesn't take advantage of her abilities, she does tend to use her glamouring more so than her other abilities, with her often using the ability to glamour into her sister, after they changed their appearances to look different from one another, in order to protect her from getting into trouble.

Thanks to the twin bond the sisters are able to hear one another's thoughts although this ability only works between the two of them and it also took them a long time to learn to be able to control and access the ability properly, however Trish seems to be stronger at the telepathy than Kat.

Kat Mitchell
Kat is Trish's twin sister and her most closest and best of friends. As a result of being twin sisters, Trish and Kat have always shared everything with one another as well as sharing a strange connection with. Like with most twins, the pair had created their own little world, a world in which they would often pretend to be the other and in which they had their own little language, to the point that Paige and Henry were concerned about the girls' social state however soon found that despite the girls being really close they did have different interests and personalities especially with Trish being dubbed as the good twin.

After the deaths of their mother, Aunts and Uncles, Kat had managed to stay strong and allow Trish the time to grief although at night, it would be Trish that would try to help counsel Kat. The pair have always stuck with one another and when the other one gets into trouble they are right there to back them up, though mostly it is Kat that is in trouble however Kat did help Trish while she was being bullied. Like any family however, the two believe in one another and would be willing to do anything for one another and like sisters, they do have their fights with their last fight resulting in them both changing their hairstyles, but always eventually come back together with them realizing that they are stronger together than they ever are apart.

Hal Mitchell
Hal is Trish's baby brother, and a confidant of hers. Growing up, Trish spent most of her time with Kat leading to her not having as close a relationship with him than with her, with Hal having a slight inferiority complex with Trish's powers, however as they grew older they developed a better relationship with one another with them appearing to be on the same wavelength and she is the one that helps him with finding out what he wants to do with his life.

However like most families, Trish and Hal do have their moments with the pair fighting a little when it comes to a lot of Trish's mannerisms. Their fights tending to be more involved due to Trish acting more like his mother than his sister which often causes a lot of issues with him. There is also a bit of a gap between them as Hal shared a rebellious nature with Kat, that he didn't with Trish however as he has gotten older he has learned to be a little bit more like Trish though he does still have issues with her mommying him.
