== Mental Manipulation? ==

It has not been officially stated that Damien possesses Mental Manipulation, but I think it would be logical. He used physical contact to enter Gabriel's mind (much like the Haitian), and, as the name suggests, manipulated Sylar's mind. As we've seen for many abilities (healing touch, space-time manipulation, telepathy, etc), ability development occurs in nearly every power, with the exception of most biological abilities. Mental Manipulation could be used for more than cerebral dampening (the Haitian can search through their memories).
I'm not saying that this is definitely the same ability, but it's possible. What do you guys think?

* Same problem was with Anna Korolenko's ability: like Haitian, she can erase memories and knock people out, but she hasn't displayed the power negating aspect. Neither has Damien, so his ability shoudn't be MM. Also, the Haitian claims he cannot restore memories. {{User:Altes/Signature}}
:So far, we are shown that he could only bring back forgotten memories and based on what Samuel said to Sylar, "''In his hands, your true memories will be returned''". Shouldn't a consensus be made for this?--{{User:NiveKJ13/sig1}} 06:28, 21 October 2009 (EDT)

== Consensus ==

=== Memory Restoration ===
# Based on the desctiption--{{User:NiveKJ13/sig1}} 06:33, 21 October 2009 (EDT)
# Nicely describes the ability. --[[User:Radicell|Radicell]] 06:37, 21 October 2009 (EDT)
# Nice and simple. --[[User:NuparuMahnika|<font color="Chocolate">'''''NuparuMah'''''</font>]][[User Talk:NuparuMahnika|<font color="Chocolate"><u>'''nika'''</u></font>]] 08:50, 21 October 2009 (EDT)
# Perfect.--[[User:Ratclaws|Ratclaws]] 09:28, 21 October 2009 (EDT)
# Unless something better comes up. [[User:Intuitive Empath|Intuitive Empath]] - [[User talk:Intuitive Empath|Talk]] - [[Special:Contributions/Intuitive Empath|Contributions]] 10:55, 21 October 2009 (EDT)
#Agree with the above. (presently). --[[User:Mc hammark|mc_hammark]] 12:49, 21 October 2009 (EDT)
#Sounds fine for now -- {{User:Jenx222/sig}} 13:09, 21 October 2009 (EDT)
#Damien restored Sylar's memories, and "returning" sounds like memories were in Damien's possession, and he gave them back. {{User:Altes/Signature}}
#Nothing to say that hasn't already been said. {{User:Psilaq Remake/sig}} 16:41, 21 October 2009 (EDT)
#Sounds good to me, unless something is clarified that majorly changes the definition of his power. --[[User:V2Blast|V2Blast]] 00:20, 22 October 2009 (EDT)
#I think this is a good name...until/unless we learn more. -- {{User:Ryangibsonstewart/sig}} 00:27, 22 October 2009 (EDT)
#I don't like this name. The memories were NOT restored, they were projected onto the screens. They appeared alien to Sylar. Sylar still isn't Sylar otherwise he wouldn't have rejected them they way he did. This name is misleading. [[User:Getbrett|Getbrett]] 02:05, 22 October 2009 (EDT)
*Actually they are restored, Sylar states, ''"All those murders. All those memories in my mind but I cannot believe that they're mine."'' The reason he rejects them is because he doesn't understand ''why'' he killed them. He hasn't experienced the hunger. Yet. --[[User:Mc hammark|mc_hammark]] 06:06, 22 October 2009 (EDT)

=== Memory Projetion ===
This phrase, "project" is actually used on this ability's page already. So why not call it memory projection as we have seen the memories are in fact projected and "re-lived". {{user:AgentJordan/Sig}}
*Simply calling it memory restoration does not fully describe the effects of Damien's ability. He did not even actually restore Sylar's memories (as in, make Sylar remember them), as much as take what Sylar did not remember and project it onto a screen so he could see it. I think this name is better. [[User:Swmystery|Swm]] 13:49, 22 October 2009 (EDT)

===Memory Returning ===

== another 2 ==

Why when we sturck on naming an ability we put, name's ability, unless we get another 1 with the same ability and if they do have it in a different form and start to debate if it is. Wasn't meant to be rude. [[User:50000JH/signature]]

== It will be more ==

I think his ability is much more than this. Samuel says he has a powerful ability, and restoring memories doesn't seem that powerful, it's just accessing a part of the brain that a person cannot themselves. --[[User:Mc hammark|mc_hammark]] 14:41, 21 October 2009 (EDT)
*Going on that line, I'd say he might be able to jumpstart abilities, if a person has them, by accessing the part of the brain that controls it.

**Were the memories that Sylar saw in the hall of mirrors not ones that aren't even in his head right now but rather are in Matt Parkman's head with the part of Sylar that is in him? - Colin
***The memories are clearly in Sylar's body, otherwise Damien wouldn't have been able to make them appear in the mirrors. I wonder why no memory belonging to Nathan appeared, Sylar got some of those with clairsentience for weeks. [[User:Intuitive Empath|Intuitive Empath]] - [[User talk:Intuitive Empath|Talk]] - [[Special:Contributions/Intuitive Empath|Contributions]] 17:46, 21 October 2009 (EDT)
*Maybe it doesn't bring back/display memories that were put in him by other means - only his "true memories", as Samuel said. --[[User:V2Blast|V2Blast]] 00:19, 22 October 2009 (EDT)
** He should've seen Nathan's death then, and if he thinks this is who he is, he should've wondered how the man who looks like him killed the one who he thinks himself to be. {{User:Altes/Signature}}
