Elkin was an upper-level demon who worked for another demon Paul Haas. He belonged to a group of young demons who wanted to take power for themselves before another powerful demon like Zankou came to power.
History
Elkin was part of a group of demons led by Paul Haas. When Paul went back to the lair where the group was after visiting the Halliwell Manor during the memorial service for the Charmed Ones, he concluded that the sisters were indeed dead. The group celebrated the fact that Zankou and all those that followed him were dead along with the Charmed Ones, as they were now free to wreak havoc on the mortals as they desired. Haas, however, reminded them that that freedom only lasted until the next demon that came to power, explaining that he hoped to preempt this by taking the Manor over from Victor Bennett, thus claiming the symbolic seat of power.
Elkin showed little interest in Paul's plans and went his own way. His first move with his newfound freedom was to go to a movie theater and use his powers to scare a viewer to death. He then found himself confronted twice; first by a Whitelighter, who unbeknownst to him was a glamoured Paige Matthews, and a mysterious woman in an all-black disguise.
Defeated, Elkin returned to the lair, where he found himself mocked by Paul Haas for losing to a witch. Elkin defended himself by saying he could've easily killed the woman if he wasn't worried about exposure. Haas continued to mock him and Elkin briefly lost his cool, before recollecting himself and promising that he would ready next time. Meanwhile Haas, not comfortable with both a witch and a Whitelighter on his tail, decided to kill Victor at night while Wyatt and Chris Halliwell were sleeping.
As Victor was getting the boys to bed, Elkin and the others appeared in the manor and waited for Victor to come down. However, before they could, the mysterious woman appeared again, promptly vanquishing one of the demons before stabbing Elkin with an athame, vanquishing him.
