Character History

Angels and Monsters

Sandra looks through Noah's files and finds a reference to him and his ability to "create vortexes that make people disappear forever." Canfield has a wife, Elaine, and an unidentified number of children. He goes to his former home to try to locate his wife, but she has moved out and the place stands empty. He loses his temper and creates a vortex, but quickly shuts it down. Claire gets his attention just before tasering him. He wakes up from her attack and, after explaining that he's not a monster, calls his wife with Claire's assistance. When he and his wife agree to meet at a carousal in the park, Canfield is interrupted by Noah and Sylar, who attempt to recapture Canfield to bring him back to Level 5. Canfield creates a large vortex and runs, leaving Noah, Sylar, and Claire to save themselves. Later, Claire finds Canfield at the carousal alone; his wife never showed up. Noah shows up and tries to force Canfield to use his vortex-generation ability to destroy Sylar in exchange for his own freedom. Canfield refuses and, with nothing left to live for, creates a vortex and throws himself in it.
