:''For notes on the usage of telekinesis in ''[[Heroes]]'', see the '''[[Telekinesis|mainspace page]]'''.
===[[Samson Gray]]===
Samson, like Sylar, possesses [[intuitive aptitude]] and [[ability theft|stole]] this power while on his own killing spree. In 1980, he was able to slice [[Sylar's mother]]'s head open with ease. As a dying old man, this is one of the few powers Samson is still sure he has, and he uses it to pin Sylar to the wall with arrows, but does not use it in his attempt to [[brain removal|slice open Sylar's head]] to acquire [[rapid cell regeneration|regeneration]], possibly because he is too weak or no longer possesses sufficient fine control.

===[[Brian Davis]]===
Brian Davis had extremely limited telekinetic ability. With intense concentration, he was able to move a cup slowly across the surface of a table. Brian was afraid of his power, and never tried to develop it.

===[[Sylar]]===
Sylar has demonstrated far more advanced telekinetic abilities than Brian. He can exert enough telekinetic force to flip a truck through the air or tear sheet metal, and he has enough control to [[brain removal|cut off the top of a person's skull]] to expose the [[brain]]. Sylar has repeatedly been shown using telekinesis to shield himself from bullets, as well as to augment his own physical strength. Sylar is able to use this power with relatively little concentration.

Sylar typically uses hand gestures in conjunction with telekinetic feats, although he can use this ability without them. Presumably they somehow help him to direct the power. He was able to incapacitate [[Eric Doyle|an opponent]] when he was [[Puppet master|unable to move]], although it seemed to take intense concentration to do so.

Sylar can simultaneously manipulate dozens of objects at once, having been shown to use swarms of locker doors (''[[Homecoming]]''), glass bottles (''[[Road Kill]]''), and glass shards (''[[.07%]]'') as projectile weapons. Nonetheless, when he was holding [[Knox]] and [[Jesse]] with this power, he seemed unable to restrain a third enemy, [[Flint]] (''[[One of Us, One of Them]]''), suggesting that he may have trouble incapacitating more than two opponents at a time, possibly due his hands being used to help him direct his power.

Sylar has also shown that he can levitate himself telekinetically to an extent. He high-jumped through an opening in the ceiling to escape [[Matt]] and [[Audrey]] (''[[One Giant Leap]]''). He also propelled himself from a [[Northeast Brewing Company truck|crashing truck]] into a tree (''[[Road Kill]]'') and snuck up on [[Dale Smither]] and [[Claire Bennet]] without making any footsteps. (''[[Unexpected]]'', ''[[The Second Coming]]'')

Despite apparently losing most of his acquired abilities due to the [[Shanti virus]], Sylar managed to keep his telekinetic abilities because the power is so closely related to the guilt he felt for killing [[Brian Davis]] [http://www.comicbookresources.com/?page=article&id=18851].

===[[Peter Petrelli]]===
Peter Petrelli is more powerful than Brian was, but not as adept as Sylar; he was able to stop [[Claude]] from striking him with a mop handle and throw Sylar across a room. By pushing an armored car, he has shown that he can exert large amounts of force, but his fine control does not match Sylar's. His control, however, seems to be developing: in [[March, 2007]], he forced open an exceptionally secure [[vault]] door, although he got a nose bleed in the process, and delicately caught a vial of the [[virus]] just before it hit the floor (''[[Powerless]]'').

With the understanding of [[intuitive aptitude]], Peter's telekinetic ability appeared to improve dramatically. He gained much finer control, to the point where he was able to literally weld a broken watch gear together telekinetically. Peter also demonstrated enough fine control to be able to make a precise incision into [[Nathan Petrelli (exposed future)|Nathan's]] skull (''[[I Am Become Death]]'') and also into [[Angela Petrelli|Angela's]] skull (''[[Angels and Monsters]]'').

Like Sylar, Peter typically gestures when using his telekinetic ability.

===[[Arthur Petrelli]]===
Arthur [[Power absorption|stole]] this ability from [[Peter]], along with Peter's other abilities. Despite having this ability for a relatively short amount of time, he became quite adept at controlling it. With a mere movement of his hand, he was able to telekinetically break [[Maury Parkman|Maury Parkman's]] neck, killing him. He was also capable of suspending others in mid-air without obvious concentration, as shown when he immobilized [[Sylar]] in the air while he talked to [[Flint]]. (''[[Eris Quod Sum]]'')

===[[Misha]]===
[[Misha]] has used this ability to stop [[Maya]]'s drinks and glasses from spilling at the [[Angry Skunk]]. Unlike other people who have this ability, Misha's eyes glow when he uses his power. (''[[Graphic Novel:Libertad|Libertad]]'')

==Memorable Quotes==
"''We've pieced a trail across a dozen states. All people impaled by household objects. Bones broken. All without any traceable sign of physical contact. But only some of them involve any mutilation of the head or neck, so they don't see the connections.''"
:- [[Audrey]] (to [[Matt]]) (''[[One Giant Leap]]'')


"''[[Brian Davis]], you think he's ... telekinetic? Moves things with his mind? Or are you just gonna toss him aside too?''"
:- [[Sylar]] (to [[Chandra]]) (''[[Six Months Ago]]'')


"''You pushed that away with your mind. Which one of your sorry friends has telekinesis?''"

"''None of 'em do. Oh, right, [[Sylar|that guy]] who was chasing [[Claire]] in [[Odessa|Texas]]. He sent some lockers flying at me.''"

:- [[Claude]], [[Peter]] (''[[Unexpected]]'')

== Notes ==
* [[Chandra Suresh]] referred to [[Brian Davis]]'s power as "telekinesis". The [[Mozaic file]] mentions "psychokinesis". In common usage, the two terms often refer to the same power.
* Some have wondered why all of [[Sylar]]'s abilities except telekinesis were [[ability loss|lost]] after he was infected with the [[Shanti virus]]. Writers [[Joe Pokaski]] and [[Aron Coleite]] said in a [http://www.comicbookresources.com/?page=article&id=18851 question and answer session] that the telekinetic power remained because it is related to the guilt Sylar felt for killing [[Brian Davis]]. "Brian was Sylar's first [[Sylar's victims|kill]] and his power is connected to emotional empathy."
* Misha's ability is the first known example of using of telekinesis on liquid substances (''[[Graphic Novel:Libertad|Libertad]]''). His ability was [[Talk:Misha's ability#Finally.2C_some_answers.21|confirmed]] to be telekinesis by writer [[DJ Doyle]].
