Enhanced hearing

Dale listens to rap music to drown out other noises.
Originally held by: Dale Smither
Absorbed by: Sylar
Ability to: Hear any sound at any volume or pitch

Enhanced hearing is the ability to hear any sound at any volume or pitch, even over vast distances.

Characters

Dale Smither was the first character to display this ability.

Sylar has stolen this ability.

Limits

Enhanced hearing appears to be a passive ability which is always active, yet controllable. With some concentration, the user can isolate particular sounds.

Dale had at least enough sensitivity to hear a human heartbeat from a few feet away. She had enough practice to detect changes in a person's mood by changes in their heart rate. She claimed to be able to hear every individual footfall of a cockroach.

Examples

  • Dale is able to hear Sylar's heartbeat change pace, as if he were nervous about something. (Unexpected)
  • Later on, Dale hears Sylar's heartbeat again, and is surprised she couldn't hear his footsteps. (Unexpected)
  • When going to meet Dale again, Sylar experiences headaches, similar to those Dale explained, and Mohinder triggers many sounds which are amplified in Sylar's hearing. (Unexpected)
