So what abilities did sylar have right before he killed charlie?

I can recall telekinesis, freezing, and trevor's ability, right?Gamerelite1 21:12, 26 October 2009 (EDT)

• His basic ability (intuitive aptitude) as well, obviously, and perhaps some other unknown ones since we didn't know exactly where he was all the time. But otherwise yes, we'd only seen him kill Brian, Trevor, and Molly's father,. Ah for the days when Sylar wasn't God... Swm 09:58, 29 October 2009 (EDT)
  • Noah showed Eden some of Sylar's unnamed victims, but I can't remember if that was before he killed Charlie. AltesUTC CH
    • Found it. It was after Charlie's death, but it's unknown if they were killed before or after Charlie. AltesUTC CH
      • It's unlikely they were killed after Charlie. The time between Charlie's death and Homecoming was only one day. Here's hoping we get to see Sylar use Freezing or Trevor's ability, for old-times' sake. --Ricard Desi (t,c) 15:15, 29 October 2009 (EDT)
  • Given there was about 3-4 people in that file, he wouldn't have done it after Charlie. As we also know Sylar killed somebody else in the GN Turning Point, it's likely he had more abilities then Season 1 let on. I guess we'll just have to wait and see. Swm 07:08, 30 October 2009 (EDT)
    • hmm. hiro is going to get owned if he tries taking him on. I wonder if we'll get to see him use freezing to turn into water, I doubt it.
      • Or if Sylar uses Trevor's ability and gives it a name... AltesUTC CH

Enhanced Memory

Shouldnt we remove this ability from sylar's list of acquired abilities, since he doesn't have it in the current timeline? daevon 21:36, 2 November 2009 (EST)

• I'd say so. Hiro did save Charlie from Sylar.--Catalyst · Talk · HL 21:38, 2 November 2009 (EST)
• But definitely put a note stating that he did have it up until strange attractors.
  • We could leave it on there, but put a note off to the side saying something about how he may not have it anymore. -Vampirate68 | Talk | Contribs | 21:51, 2 November 2009 (EST)
    • How about we remove enhanced memory from the list and write in the note that Sylar only acquired it in an alternate timeline? AltesUTC CH
    • I prefer Altes' answer, given that in the current timeline, he never took her power. Swm 05:23, 3 November 2009 (EST)
      • It needs to be removed completely. By the narrative of the series, he never had it. Maybe the ability page itself could mention a past Sylar had it- like we do with the Future Sylar's and Peters, but present day Sylar now never had it so it should be removed. -User:EvilMaldini 13:41, 3 November 2009 (GMT)
        • Notes section should be enough. Intuitive Empath - Talk - Contributions 12:37, 3 November 2009 (EST)
          • And the same goes for Peter? What about enhanced memory? We can't call it confirmed for Sylar anymore, just like future abilities. - Josh (talk/contribs) 15:02, 4 November 2009 (EST)
            • A note either in his exposed abilities template (and that of his future selves) should be enough. Intuitive Empath - Talk - Contributions 15:03, 4 November 2009 (EST)

Blood Clot

Did Sylar use IA to detect the blood clot?[50000JH 16:52, 3 November 2009 (EST)]

• I assume so - Jenx222 | U / T / C 16:55, 3 November 2009 (EST)

Intra Page referencing

I think as a means of distinguishing sylar's mind from his body, we should refer to the mind that is in matt as sylar and the body that has no memories as Gabriel. I think it would make it easier to understand which one is being refered to.

Still no flight ?!

Can I know what makes you doubt?

As if Nathan would know he had to use telekinesis in order to fly...?

You're waiting for Nathan to actually fly on screen ? No cauz, you know, it would have been mentioned if he couldn't fly...

That's exactly what we're waiting. Intuitive Empath - Talk - Contributions 16:17, 7 November 2009 (EST)

• Glad to hear you guys won't come up with "but he used TK !" then. ;) See you soon :p ...

So does that mean he can fly?

Because it sure looks like Sylar flew away after shifting back to Nathan's form when he wakes up in the carnival at the begining of Shadowboxing.

• "Nathan" can use TK, but he would certainly rather fly away with "his" power than propel himself all the way with his "new" power. AltesUTC CH
  • I think the page should reference "An invisible thread" as the time Sylar accquired flying and not "Shadowboxing". He could not possibly have taken in shadowboxing as Nathan was 8 weeks dead.
    • It had to have been empathy during the entire night that Sylar was prodding around in Nathan's office stuff. Not to mention the fact that Sylar spent the whole night with Nathan while he was knocked out. There is no way that was telekinesis. The only way that Sylar picked up flight only in this episode is if the memory flashes were enough to give an empathy blast. That's not likely. The only evidence to the contrary would be the fact that it took Sythan 30 minutes to get to Kojin Sushi in Orientation. NileQT87 02:02, 10 November 2009 (EST)
      • I wasn't saying that he accquired flight all of a sudden in shadowboxing, I'm just saying that we can finally confirm it and stop wondering about, or at least im hoping thats what this means.
  • I think it should read acquired in Invisible Thread, demonstrated in Shadowboxing (just like with Charlie's ability, minus the note). As "Nathan", Sylar wouldn't be aware of his Telekinesis, right? The scene at the end basically confirms he thinks he's Nathan again. That was definetly Flight- not only were the sound effects correct for once, but the manner in which he took off is exactly the same as every Flight the real Nathan ever did. He would have absorbed it through empathy, either when Matt put all of his memories in his head (making him empathise in the most literal way possible, by literally seeing his life), or beforehand if you say that his Flight in Invisible Thread is Flight and not TK, when he sucked memories out of his possessions. I think it's safe to add it. Swm 05:16, 10 November 2009 (EST)

How did Sylar learn how to fly? He killed Nathan before he cut his head open. Unless he got it from West, or something.--Gibbeynator 13:44, 11 November 2009 (EST)

• He got it from Nathan empathetically, due to his Clairsentience. Or are you asking how he had the knowledge to fly perfectly without struggling? If its that he thinks he's Nathan. And Nathan knows how to fly.--Catalyst · Talk · HL 13:48, 11 November 2009 (EST)
  • *shudder* Every time someone says that Sylar can get powers the same way Peter can, it makes me feel bad inside...--Gibbeynator 15:43, 11 November 2009 (EST)
  • Plus, if you'll recall, in the season opener, Nathan said it took him 40 minutes, or some such number, to get to lunch. It wouldn't have taken as long if he flew.--Gibbeynator 15:49, 11 November 2009 (EST)
