===[[Daphne]]=== |

[[Daphne]] has the ability to run at super speeds. She can zip around the world in very little time; she has visited [[Tokyo]], [[Paris]], and [[New York City]] faster than is humanly possible. Daphne's speed does not only manifest itself in her feet, but also in her hands. Indeed, she often uses her speed to steal objects of great worth, and has found that her swiftness makes her a formidable fighter, despite her lack of natural talent in defeating others. Daphne can run so fast that she is even able to leap between buildings. |

Daphne's ability also allows her to move at normal speed when [[space-time manipulation|time is drastically slowed]], as was demonstrated in her first encounter with Hiro Nakamura. However, when not moving at super speed, she isn't immune to time-stopping effects. (''[[Dying of the Light]]'') |
|||
Daphne can [[ability extension|extend her ability]] to at least one other person, allowing them to move with her at super speed without harm. (''[[Dying of the Light]]'') |
|||
It is interesting to note that when using her power, Daphne leaves behind a visible, tangible "speed trail" that roughly resembles Daphne in terms of color. When Hiro catches up with Daphne in their first encounter, the speed trail disappears. It is unknown what this trail is made of. |

===[[Peter]]=== |

This article has been nominated for a name change to "super speed". To discuss the proposed name change, see the discussion page. |
|
| Super speed | |
|---|---|
 Daphne runs fast, very fast! | |
| Originally held by: | Daphne Millbrook, Agent (enhanced speed) |
| Absorbed by: | Peter Petrelli (lost), Future Peter |
| Ability to: | Move faster than is possible for a normal human |
| Examples of super speed | |
Super speed is the ability to move faster than would normally be possible for a human being.
Characters
Confirmed
- Daphne Millbrook has this ability.
- Peter Petrelli has absorbed this ability from someone in a possible future, where several people have this ability.
Future
- An agent in a possible future has this ability.
- Future Peter has absorbed this ability from the agent.
- In another possible future where abilities can be induced, several people demonstrated this ability.
Limits
Daphne
Daphne has the ability to run at super speeds. She can zip around the world in very little time; she has visited Tokyo, Paris, and New York City faster than is humanly possible. Daphne's speed does not only manifest itself in her feet, but also in her hands. Indeed, she often uses her speed to steal objects of great worth, and has found that her swiftness makes her a formidable fighter, despite her lack of natural talent in defeating others. Daphne can run so fast that she is even able to leap between buildings.
Daphne's ability also allows her to move at normal speed when time is drastically slowed, as was demonstrated in her first encounter with Hiro Nakamura. However, when not moving at super speed, she isn't immune to time-stopping effects. (Dying of the Light)
Daphne can extend her ability to at least one other person, allowing them to move with her at super speed without harm. (Dying of the Light)
It is interesting to note that when using her power, Daphne leaves behind a visible, tangible "speed trail" that roughly resembles Daphne in terms of color. When Hiro catches up with Daphne in their first encounter, the speed trail disappears. It is unknown what this trail is made of.
Peter
Upon absorbing Daphne's ability, Peter was able to use a quick burst of speed to knock Claire out before she could react. He was also able to block Daphne from attacking him, causing them to crash through a door, but was not adept enough to defend against her repeated high-speed attacks.
Future Agent
The female team member from the future can move at superhuman speed, but just how much faster she can move than a normal person is not known. When running at high speed, she can use her momentum to run on a wall several feet from the ground. With the help of another agent, her high-speed attacks kept Future Peter too stunned to fight back. It is unknown whether or not the agent, like Daphne, is immune to time-stopping effects.
Future Peter
Peter from the future where New York exploded absorbed this ability from the agent. After acquiring super speed, Peter was capable of catching her. Peter was already immune against time-stopping effects before mimicking her power.
Selected Examples
-
-
Daphne's speed does not apply just to her feet.
(Our Lady of Blessed Acceleration, Part 2) -
At such high speeds, Daphne can leap from building to building.
(Our Lady of Blessed Acceleration, Part 2) -
-
-
Daphne runs around Peter.
(I Am Become Death) -
Daphne arrives at Pinehearst.
(Angels and Monsters) -
Notes
- In a question and answer session], writer Chris Zatta theorized that Daphne is able to travel to Europe (Sum Quod Sum, Part 1) by running quickly over the surface tension of the water.
