Examples of enhanced memory

Enhanced memory is the ability to recall images, sounds, or objects in memory with great accuracy, and in seemingly unlimited volume.

Characters

• This power was originally possessed by Charlie Andrews.
• Sylar killed Charlie and acquired this ability from her.

Limits

Charlie was able to remember everything she read since she first manifested this power. She was also able to comprehend and use the knowledge gained almost immediately.

Sylar was able to read the owner's manual for a tractor-trailer and immediately use that knowledge to drive the vehicle.

The limits of what a character with this power may remember are not yet known. To date, all of the examples shown are based on information the user has read; whether other information can be recalled is unknown.

Examples

• Charlie Andrews immediately knows the obscure answer (Kanyakumari) to a crossword puzzle on which Sheriff Davidson was working. (Seven Minutes to Midnight)
• Charlie learns to speak some basic Japanese, having only started reading her phrase book one week ago. (Seven Minutes to Midnight)
• Charlie learns both spoken and written Japanese in a matter of days after Hiro travels back into the past and gives her a Japanese phrase book. (Six Months Ago)
• Sylar skims the operations manual for an eighteen-wheeler and successfully drives it cross-country. (Road Kill)
• Sylar says, "I remember you." to Peter, implying that he remembered him using Charlie's stolen Enhanced Memory. (Parasite)
