Noah Gray is actually H.R.G. (Noah Bennet)	None	+ HRG have no abilities, so he injected himself one, only to find out he became younger and younger. • Or de-aging people could be a new ability enacted on Noah. + If Noah Gray is 4 years old, and its 2011, then he must be born in 2007, and Sylar doesn't have any known partner in those times. + Noah Gray is blonde. + When Peter went to the future, H.R.G. is nowhere to be found. - He couldn't have, say, died? - In Resistance, Claire talks about the loss of her parents. + Her dad becoming a baby would count as a loss. - She does not seem upset when he dies. + She might not know that it is him. + She had recently killed her uncle and didn't show much remorse. - She allowed herself a few moments to mourn her uncle, and having to kill him a second time. - She might not show much remorse because she believes she is fighting for the greater good. + In "Behind the Eclipse: Week 3, authors Aron Coliete and Joe Pokaski pick up this idea but give it a little twist: Gabriel Gray IS HRG's father, but somehow little Noah timetravels back into the 60's and grows up to be HRG. This would not involve any backwards aging and is possible due to characters like Peter and Hiro being able to timetravel. - I would postulate that if Noah Grey time travels to the past to grow up as HRG, then Claire's entire past would have been altered by Noah Grey being killed. Noah would have died before going back to become HRG, and Claire would have had a totaly different life, which would have altered everything. Actually, the very act of killing Noah Grey would have likely changed the past extensively. What would the heroverse be like if HRG had never existed? + This is one of those time travel problems, but in my understanding altering the future does not have the same effect as altering the past because the future is always subject to change. So if Noah Gray already time-travelled back in one possible future and has become a fixed part of the past, his death in an alternate future wouldn't change anything in the past. Also, it is most likely that the future in which Sylar explodes will be altered eventually.
Angela was the reason for the birth of "Noah Gray"	In One of Us, One of Them Angela states that she will "fix" his hunger	+ Due to Angela's Precognitive ability, she can see the future and thus know what will stop Sylar from giving in to his hunger, as Gabriel stated in "I am become Death" he does it for his son.
Noah is adopted	None	+ There is no evidence of Noah's mother.
Like his father, Noah was an evolved human.	None	+ Power heredity exists in the Heroes universe.
Noah is the child of Maya and Sylar	The sex between the two is implied at the end of Truth & Consequences	+ She is the only woman in the series to seem to have loved Sylar.
Noah is the son of Elle and Sylar, who will become involved at some point.	Noah resembles both of them (He is blond, like Elle, and has brown eyes, like Sylar).
