Paul E. Sylar is a person born in 1962, who is found documented in Chandra Suresh's research.

Based on the evolution of the Sylar character, particularly beyond the Unaired pilot, it is evident that Paul E. Sylar was simply an early story-arc that was later abandoned for the current Gabriel Gray arc on Sylar's origin.

Character History

Unaired pilot

Mohinder enters Chandra's apartment and finds a cassette tape bearing the identification 'Sylar'. Mohinder plays the tape, which contains a conversation between Chandra and Paul E. Sylar.

Mohinder discovers an entry in Chandra's notes with the following name and address:

Paul Sylar

1201 S Main St #314

(212) 555-6191

Later, Mohinder goes to the address and meets a figure wearing a dark trench-coat and black hat, and identifies him as "Sylar".

Genesis

Mohinder enters Chandra's apartment and finds a cassette tape bearing the identification 'Sylar'. The tape is not played in this episode, and the meeting does not take place.

Don't Look Back

Mohinder and Eden listen to an answering machine message conversation between Mr. Sylar and Chandra.

One Giant Leap

Mohinder and Eden find a notebook in Chandra's laptop with the following name and address:

SYLAR

1146 TRENTON PLACE APT 1B

QUEENS, NY 11011

They go to that address, and find a file about Sylar, a map similar to Chandra's map.

• Primatech Paper Company was formed in 1962, the same year Paul E. Sylar was born.
