__NOTOC__ |
|||
This article will archive all of the Published and Fan '''Theories''' that exist for the show ''Heroes''. |
|||
==[[Charlie]]== |
|||
*Charlie's eidetic memory could be a result of the blood clot in her brain. As [[Chandra Suresh]] began his research thinking that defects in the brain could be corrected, they could possibly also cause a power to emerge. |
|||
*Charlie is merely a victim of time. No matter how much Hiro bends time and space, Charlie dies at the same time. |
|||
==[[Hiro's sword]]== |
|||
* Future Hiro has come from an apocalyptic future where one needs a sword to defend oneself. |
|||
* Since a gun would be completely useless if time were frozen, he uses the sword to defeat enemies. |
|||
* He uses the sword to channel his powers. |
|||
* He thinks having a sword would be cool. |
|||
* Some heroes, such as those with Claire's regeneration ability, might have to be decapitated to be killed, as in the "Highlander" mythos. |
|||
* Nightcrawler (a Marvel Comics character who possesses teleporting superpowers) uses a sword, and Hiro is a member of the Marvel Merry Marching Society. |
|||
==[[The List]]== |
|||
* [[Sylar]] is using a copy of the list to locate his victims. |
|||
* Some fans also believe [[Mr. Bennet]] is using a copy of the list. However, his organization predates Chandra's research, so if he is using it, it's a recent development. |
|||
==[[Matt Parkman]]== |
|||
* <STRIKE>Matt is in a different time than the rest of the heroes, due to the fact that there are no events connecting Matt to the rest, with the exception of Sylar.</STRIKE> |
|||
==[[Micah Sanders]]== |
|||
* Micah will build a suit similar to the Iron Man's. |
|||
* The most likely power that Micah was exhibiting is known as [[Powers#Technopathy|technopathy]], or the ability to control technology with one's mind. However, all we've seen so far is the temporary repair of existing devices (motherboard, telephone). |
|||
* Micah will build a cybernetic limb, like Forge and Cable; a time machine like Forge and Cable; an evolved human tracking or detecting device. |
|||
==[[Molly Walker]]== |
|||
* It's not yet clear what Sylar's interest in Molly or her parents is, or whether any of them are [[:Category:Evolved Humans|evolved humans]]. However, since the only other of Sylar's victims shown with their [[Brain Removal|brains removed]] have been evolved humans ([[Isaac Mendez]] in the future, [[Charlie]], in [[Isaac]] and [[Peter]]'s painting) or believed by Sylar to be an evolved human (i.e., Sylar thought [[Jackie Wilcox]] was [[Claire Bennet]]), it's quite likely that at least [[:Image:MollysFather.jpg|her father]] possessed superpowers. |
|||
* Molly might have the ability to amplify powers, hense making her a highly desireable target for Sylar. This would also explain Matt's ability to hear thoughts from well outside the house, at a time when his powers were new and unfocused. |
|||
* <STRIKE>Molly is Claire at a younger age (assuming the Matt storyline is in the past).</STRIKE> |
|||
==[[Mr. Linderman]]== |
|||
* <STRIKE>Linderman is [[Sylar]].</STRIKE> |
|||
* Linderman will eventually play a bigger part in the series. |
|||
* Linderman may be Mr. Bennett. |
|||
==[[Niki Sanders]]== |
|||
* Niki has multiple personality disorder and [[Jessica]] is her alternate personality. For some reason, only Jessica is able to tap into her powers for now. |
|||
* Niki had control of her powers at one point, but HRG captured her, and had The Haitian wipe her memory. Her old personality, that The Haitian erased might not have been fully erased, which explains her alter-ego. However, this does not explain all of her friends/family knowing her as Niki and not as Jessica. |
|||
* Niki will go to the "dark side". |
|||
* Niki's other personality is actually her sister Jessica, who may have had an ability before dying and somehow came to take over Nikki's body so she could continue prtecting her. In "Six Months Ago", the way Jessica (Personality) speaks is as if she IS the Jessica. |
|||
==[[Sanjog Iyer]]== |
|||
After his first appearance, a number of fans speculated wildly about everything from Sanjog's gender to his corporeal existence. ''[[Episode:Homecoming|Homecoming]]'' showed him to be a conscious, living, breathing boy, disproving a number of far-fetched theories: |
|||
* Possibly the craziest of all fan theories is that Sanjog is [[Sylar]], due to the fact that Sanjog's first initial and last name is "S.Iyer". |
|||
* Equally curious is the theory that Sanjog, an 11 year-old boy, is the ghost of [[Mohinder]]'s sister [[Shanti]], who died as a 5 year-old girl. |
|||
* Other hypothesized that Sanjog was stuck in the dream world. |
|||
Not disproven: |
|||
* Iyer may have the power to see the past, not just entering other's minds while they dream. He was able to see the murder of Mohinder's father, for example. |
|||
==[[Sylar]]== |
|||
* <STRIKE>Sylar is [[Mr. Linderman]] or works for him.</STRIKE> |
|||
* Similarly to Peter, Sylar has the ability of [[Powers#Power_mimicry|absorption]]. However, Sylar has found a way to prolong the effects indefinitely, through Chandra Suresh's research. He knows that if he eats the brain of someone with abilities, he is able to control those abilities. This is the reason why the heroes must [[The message|Save the Cheerleader]]. If they don't save [[Claire Bennet|Claire]], then he will gain [[Powers#Rapid cell regeneration|Rapid Regeneration]] and will become almost unstoppable. |
|||
* <STRIKE>Sylar was a test subject of Chandra Suresh who manipulated his genes to give him all of the researched powers. This manipulation, however, has had a terrible side effect which causes his split personality (like [[Niki Sanders|Niki]]) to be extremely violent.</STRIKE> |
|||
* <STRIKE>Sylar might have every power the heroes have combined.</STRIKE> |
|||
* The theory that Sylar is [[Peter Petrelli|Peter]] has become so stale at [http://www.9thwonders.com/boards/ 9th Wonders], the semi-official Heroes fansite, that it has inspired a drinking game: whenever someone brings it up, drink. |
|||
* <STRIKE>Chandra Suresh moved to the United States to further his research; He joined forces with Mr. Bennet to perform this research, which involved the testing of Sylar. Chandra and Mr. Bennet became divided over ethical approaches, and Sylar, without help or containment found that he could gain others' abilities if he ate their brains.</STRIKE> |
|||
* <STRIKE>It's possible that Sylar is not absorbing the heroes' powers, but is only a powerful telekinetic.</STRIKE> |
|||
** This would explain everything, since the only things we have seen Sylar do so far can be explained through telekinetics. (Repelling of bullets, forcing Audrey's arm to point the gun at her head, levitating to escape Matt, levitating people he killed and impaling them with ordinary objects without touching them, freezing other victims, packing all of his apartment belongings so quickly, etc.) |
|||
* [[Sylar]] can alter his brain by studying the physical characteristics of other brains, which is why he is able to alter his own abilities. [[Sylar]]'s gift of fixing objects and the profound instance when [[Sylar]] noticed his first victim's 'defect' supports this theory. Sylar can fix intricate devices, and brains, specifically his own. [[Micah]] seems to have a similar gift. |
|||
* [[Sylar]] has the ability to 'fix' things and know when they need fixing. This is probably because he spent his life fixing watches (assuming abilities are based on personality). Also with this ability is the knowing of how things work. Therefore he probably takes the brains and somehow figures out how to take the parts with the ability and place it in his brain. He would know to take the brain because of Chandra. Also when he was talking to Brian he immediatly realized he was broken and said "It is all in the brain." Him taking the abilities would be assumed as some kind of needing to be something, or part of something. This leads to some kind of corruption, which is what we see in Sylar now. This also supports his "hunger"...for power. He has convinced himself that either all the Heroes are broken or incapable of there abilities, or that he needs the powers just to satisfy the hunger. |
|||
* [[Sylar]], in continuation with the theory his ability is to fix things, believes all the Heroes need to be "fixed". This ability may also be a hint and the episode "The Fix". It could be aimed towards the fact that everything will be fixed for the good, or that Sylar will FIX everyone, or attempt to. |
|||
* [[Sylar]] may be heeding to the <b>Evolutionary Imperative</b> to kill dying Heroes and augment their powers to his for the sake of efficiency. This would explain [[Charlie]], who is dying from a blood clot, and possibly [[Brian Davis]] (since Brian Davis was rather obese and possibly prone to heart problems?). However, <b>Evolutionary Imperative</b> doesn't state anything about greed, so he might kill people out of his lust for being "special" (getting [[Claire]]'s power would certainly give him an edge and put him one step above even the heroes). |
|||
==[[The Message]]== |
|||
* [[Claire]]'s life will somehow be put into danger in a non-physical sense, seeing as how her body regenerates. |
|||
* Claire may be in danger of being killed by having her [[Brain Removal|brain removed]] by [[Sylar]]. This is supported by one of [[Isaac's paintings]]. |
|||
* [[Claire Bennet|Claire's]] survival is critical, so that [[Peter Petrelli|Peter]] will be able to utilize her [[powers#Rapid cell regeneration|regenerative ability]] in a showdown with [[Sylar]]. |
|||
* If [[Sylar]] is able to remove (and possibly consume) [[Claire Bennet|Claire's]] brain, he will become indestructible and destroy the world. |
|||
* The message is two different commands, meaning the heroes have to save the cheeleader, and save the world. |
|||
* [[Claire Bennet|Claire's]] [[powers#Rapid cell regeneration|regenerative ability]] will be used to enter the radioactive area caused by the [[nuclear explosion]] to stop [[Theodore Sprague]] from dying/overreacting. |
|||
==[[Zach]]== |
|||
* Zach has an unknown ability. |
|||
* <STRIKE>Zach is [[Sylar]].</STRIKE> |
|||
* He is killed because of [[Claire]]. |
|||
* He is gay. |
|||
* Zach will be the one who eventually saves Claire, possibly with his theoretical ability. |
|||
* Zach is actually Claire's twin brother. He knows it she doesn't. That's why he won't date her and yet tries to be very close to her. |
