| Examples of empathic mimicry | |
Power mimicry is the ability to duplicate the superhuman abilities of other evolved humans.
Characters
Peter Petrelli is the only character known to have this ability.
Limits
The conditions under which Peter's power mimicry occurs are not well known.
Peter apparently needs to be close to another evolved human to duplicate his or her abilities. Physical contact apparently isn't necessary, but he has not clearly duplicated the abilities of anyone more than a few feet away.
How long he needs to be close is uncertain. He has had at least a brief conversation (or time for one) with everyone whose abilities he has clearly duplicated.
Examples
- Peter duplicates his brother Nathan's ability to fly. (Don't Look Back)
- Peter duplicates Isaac's ability to paint the future. (Hiros)
- Peter duplicates Claire's regeneration ability to heal the fatal injuries he received in a long fall. (Homecoming)
- Peter duplicates Matt's telepathic ability, causing a disturbing feedback loop between them. (Fallout)
