The conditions under which [[Eden]]'s power of [[suggestion]] occurs is not well known. The power requires speech (so, it will not work if the user is gagged), and presumably requires the affected individual to understand the spoken commands and be able to act on them. Eden was shown to have to repeat commands sometimes to have an effect (''[[Six Months Ago]]''), and the exact wording and specificity of the command may have a relation to it's success ([[Sylar]] appears to resist Eden's rather complex set of commands at the end of ''[[Fallout]]''). However, when strongly focused, the true limits of the power may extend to outright killing of the victim through pure power of suggestion (''[[Life Before Eden | Graphic Novel:Life Before Eden]]'').

Held by: Eden McCain
Ability to: Compel others with vocal suggestion

Suggestion is the ability to force others to obey one's spoken suggestions.

Characters

Eden is the only character known to have this ability.

Limits

The conditions under which Eden's power of suggestion occurs is not well known. The power requires speech (so, it will not work if the user is gagged), and presumably requires the affected individual to understand the spoken commands and be able to act on them. Eden was shown to have to repeat commands sometimes to have an effect (Six Months Ago), and the exact wording and specificity of the command may have a relation to it's success (Sylar appears to resist Eden's rather complex set of commands at the end of Fallout). However, when strongly focused, the true limits of the power may extend to outright killing of the victim through pure power of suggestion (Graphic Novel:Life Before Eden).

Examples
