Stephanie "Stevie" Nichols is a former young wizard. She first appears in "Detention Election" where she meets Alex and becomes best friends with Alex (Selena Gomez).

History

Stevie first appeared in "Detention Election". While she is in detention, Stevie meets Alex. They soon became friends and learn they have a lot in common, like for example, they both like to cause trouble after "Dentention Election" Alex and Harper discovers Stevie is a wizard and soon Harper feels like the third wheel (if want to know more read on to the second and third  paragraph)

In "Eat to the Beat", when Alex and Justin are fighting, Stevie uses a spell to turn a rock band into a smooth jazz band. Harper, who saw Stevie use magic, attempts to tell Alex. However, Stevie is able to stop her by using a spell to erase Harper's memory of what she saw.

Harper is able to regain her memory of the event in the lunchroom, and informs Alex that Stevie is a wizard. Soon after, Alex and Stevie went onto magical adventures leaving Harper behind.

In "The Good, The Bad and the Alex", Stevie conducts a revolution of wizards to override the power distributor, which is what takes wizards' powers away and transfers them when they lose the wizard competition, and gets Alex and Max to join her. However, she was unaware that Alex would turn on her. Alex and Harper help Warren get his full powers by transferring Stevie's powers to him, while Stevie is frozen. Not much after, Max accidentally tipped over Stevie's statue shattering her to pieces, killing her. 

In response to fans wondering if Stevie had died, Todd J. Greenwald followed up on Stevie's storyline. He stated that, "Stevie was fused back together and sent of to an island for 6 months of 'Soul Rehab'. She now lives a happy, fulfilling life back in the Wiz World with her new dogs, Mark and Susan." He also stated that this will never be shown in an episode, and Stevie's storyline has ended.

Personality

Stevie's personality is very similar to Alex's. However, Stevie seems to not possess the same compassion and kind-heartedness that Alex does.

Abilities

Stevie's wand is skinny like Alex's. It's white, with black lines encircleing the shaft. Like Alex's, there is an orb at the top, but silver dragon instead of green circular oval.

Relationships

Alex and Stevie have been good friends in the episodes listed bellow.  They bond together most of the time and make trouble which brings them both closer to each other in the episode "The good and the bad And the Alex" Alex discover that Stevie is having a wizard revolution and convinces Alex to join which she agrees but Stevie doesen't know Alex will turn against her which broke their friendship

Trivia

• Justin pointed that Alex and Stevie were very alike.
• Stevie puts her wand in her boot just like Alex.
• Stevie is one of the only 2 known wizards to have attended Tribeca Prep, other than the Russo 3. The only other wizard is T.J. Taylor.
• Despite her status as a villain, Stevie was very well received by the fanbase. Many fans didn't understand why she was characterized as "evil" and, in fact, sympathized with her anger over losing her powers. Multiple fanfics have been written where Stevie returns from the dead and patches things up with Alex.
• She is the second character out of four characters that die on-screen (the first being the Mummy, followed by Gorog, followed by Dominic). However, Greenwald has stated that her frozen form was fused back together off-screen, allowing her to be returned to life.
• The Revolution is reminding the Anonymous group's attacks. They are using attacks (pings) by multiple users (DDoS) at a specific time that was determined in advance in order to knock out websites' servers, as a way to protest against something. During the Wizards' Revolution it was planned to use a specific spell (insted of pings) to do so.
• There was a time in 2011 where rumors were spreading that Stevie was going to return to take revenge on Alex and the Russo clan in an episode called "Revenge of an Old Friend" and it was rumored to be aired on December 16, 2011. However, the episode was deemed only a rumor and Stevie never returned in the series.
