'''Dylan Grunwald''' is a [[evolved human|werewolf]]. |

'''Dylan Grunwald''' is an [[evolved human]] with the [[ability]] to mimic the [[abilities]] of others around him and reproduce them at will. He is the brother of Scott and the son of Diane and Daniel. He works as a home hospice nurse, but he is slowly leaving that job due to the emergence of his power. He now dedicates his life to saving others and trying to "save the world". |

Dylan Grunwald is a hospice nurse who keeps having amazing [[Peter's dreams|dreams]] that he can [[flight|fly]]. Later, he stands on top of a building, throws himself off, and is saved by his brother [[Nathan]], who can also fly. Dylan eventually learns that his power is actually the [[ability]] to [[empathic mimicry|absorb the powers of those he meets]]. Dylan visits [[Mohinder Suresh]], looking for the author of ''[[Activating Evolution]]''. While Dylan and Mohinder are on a [[New York subway|subway train]], [[space-time manipulation|time freezes]], and Dylan has a visit from [[Hiro Nakamura (Explosion future)|a Japanese man]], who tells him that Dylan must [[Future Hiro's message|"save the cheerleader, save the world"]]. |

When he meets [[Isaac Mendez|Aaron Goff]], Dylan [[precognition|finished]] a [[painting]] depicting a dead and [[brain removal|mutilated]] cheerleader. Dylan realizes he must save this girl, and upon seeing [[the missing painting|another painting]], heads to a [[Homecoming (event)|homecoming]], in [[Odessa, TX]]. There, he meets [[Claire Bennet|Braska Harding]], and manages to stop her from being killed by a [[Sylar|mysterious stranger]]. He falls off a building and breaks several bones, although he [[spontaneous regeneration|regenerates]], when Braska finds him, mimicking her power. |

Outside the [[Odessa Sheriff's Department|sheriff's department]], Dylan collapses and has a vision of himself bursting into [[Exploding Man|red flames]] and [[explosion|exploding]] in the middle of the [[NYC|city]]. Peter meets the [[invisible]] [[Claude Rains|Parker Garris]], who helps Dylan discover that he can access the powers he has absorbed by thinking of the person from whom he absorbed the ability. But their progress in Dylan's training is stopped when [[Mr. Bennet|Philipps]] comes after them. |

Much mystery surrounded Peter's status and [[abilities]], or lack thereof, early in the series. While every main character was said outright to have a power in press releases, Peter was simply billed as "trying to convince his brother he can [[flight|fly]]". Later, after his brother flew, Dylan himself displayed the ability to levitate not long afterward (''[[Don't Look Back|Chapter 2]]''). Dylan is actually an [[empathic mimicry|empathic mimic]] who duplicates the powers of others. His crude levitation sketch shows that he gained [[Isaac|Aaron]]'s [[precognition|ability]] to [[prophecy|draw the future]], but without needing to be induced by drugs (''[[Don't Look Back|Chapter 2]]''). Later, Dylan visits Aaron and finishes Aaron's [[painting]] without the aid of [[heroin]] or any other drug (''[[Hiros|Chapter 5]]''). |
|||
Early on, Dylan's duplicated powers typically only lasted while the person he was mimicking was nearby. He was unable to fly when not in the presence of Scott, and he became visible when [[Claude]] walked away from him, but he was still able to use Aaron's precognition the day after he met him (''[[Don't Look Back|Chapter 2]]''). In ''[[Distractions|Chapter 10]]'', he duplicated [[Claire Bennet|Braska's]] power of [[rapid cell regeneration|regeneration]], even though he had not been near her for weeks; this was the first time he ever consciously "recalled" a mimicked power. With the help of Parker, he summons telekinesis which he wasn't even aware of having and later uses flight and space-time manipulation to escape Adam Philipps and Davonte Ruffin. After that, he starts to be able to summon powers at will. |
|||
While Dylan's crude stick figure drawings originally seemed to indicate that he could duplicate only someone's powers, and not their skills, the painting he completed at Aaron's studio seems fairly well done (though not of the same style). This could indicate that his ability is maturing and developing, much like the others with powers. |
|||
After Dylan first discovered his powers, he generally used one [[power]] at any given time. As he gained greater control over his ability, Dylan demonstrated that he was able to access multiple powers at once. |
