** Regarding illusion, my opinion is that Candice refuted Micah's theory after he asked her about it point blank. So I left illusion as I trust Candice's description more than Micah's.

Revision as of 06:00, 7 December 2007
Hmm, I had hoped this would be more balanced in terms of categories. It would be better if I combined the 'atoms and matter' and 'waves' categories, but that would differ from Dr. Suresh's categories.--MiamiVolts (talk) 21:57, 12 August 2007 (EDT)
- This is a nice page. I like it. I do have a few suggestions, however. Wouldn't intuitive aptitude go under mental? Sylar's gifted understanding of "how thinks work" is a mental thing. And, illusion, would it go under manipulation of waves? Micah theorizes that Candice's ability stems from bending light (Landslide), and light exhibits properties of waves. I guess you could classify telekinesis as manipulation of atoms and matter, but I've always thought of it as a mental power, and it is commonly referred to as one. I think it's fine as it is, though. Here are some ideas for additions:
- Physical- adoptive muscle memory, perhaps replication?
- Atoms and matter- alchemy
- Elements- the classical element of water, water mimicry
Altogether, well done. :)--Ice Vision 23:59, 6 December 2007 (EST)
