User:Riddler/Ability byproducts

Ability byproducts
Though Edward's ability is Accelerated probability, he can discharge Lightning.

Though rare, some evolved humans can demonstrate more than one ability. These extra abilities are, in fact, byproducts of their users' central ability.

Examples

Accelerated probability

Central ability: See the choices in a situation, predict the outcomes, and choose the best path.
Byproduct(s): Santiago and Edward both can move very fast. Edward can also generate a form of lightning.

Plant manipulation

Central ability: Manipulate vegetation.
Byproduct(s): Brendan Lewis can regenerate due to the plant like characteristics of his physiology.

Possible examples

Intuitive aptitude

Central ability: Understand how complex systems work.
Byproduct(s): Sylar can absorb abilities by studying his victim's brains, and through empathy.

Telepathy

Central ability: Read minds and project thoughts.
Byproduct(s): Matt Parkman can not only read minds, but can also create illusions.

Space-time manipulation

Central ability: Travel through, reverse, slow, and stop time.
Byproduct(s): Hiro can teleport in addition to his time manipulating abilities.

Notes

• Every ability may have a byproduct, but is seen as a part of the central ability and vice-versa. The above listed may not be byproducts at all, and are just aspects of their respective abilities.
