AURA ABSORPTION!!

...Aura absorption? D: Wow anyway, exciting episode. I kind of missed what happened to Adam though... is he dead? Sincerely, Thrashmeister [ U | T | C ] 22:01, 20 October 2008 (EDT)

• Looked like Aura absorption to me too. Anyway, Arthur stole Adam's power, apparently causing him to age 400 years and die :( --Aburu 22:03, 20 October 2008 (EDT)
  • Aura absorption involves killing the person, only Adam died and that seems to be because of aging. It is ability theft, though. Also, oh my, what an episode.--Riddler 22:04, 20 October 2008 (EDT)
    • Well we'll get the technicalities sorted out eventually... And poor Adam... wow, I regret missing that aging part... IMAGES PL0X. xD Sincerely, Thrashmeister [ U | T | C ] 22:05, 20 October 2008 (EDT)
    • Also was Elle in this episode? I'm not sure if I missed her. Because one of the promos had her in it but I didn't see her at all, and if she was in the first half hour, most of which I missed, then that seems kind of odd to have her only in that segment... Sincerely, Thrashmeister [ U | T | C ] 22:07, 20 October 2008 (EDT)
      • No, she wasn't. Also, I think it may be a more perfected form of Aura Absorption. --Aburu 22:08, 20 October 2008 (EDT)
        • Pssh. At the Elle part. Got dang it. Sincerely, Thrashmeister [ U | T | C ] 22:09, 20 October 2008 (EDT)
• Peter's powerless, oh my. He stands no chance when he's against his own abilities... without his own abilities. JackOfBloodyHearts 22:10, 20 October 2008 (EDT)
• I agree with Riddler because it says you have to kill the person in order to take the ability for aura absorption. It should be called Ability Theft
  • There do exist variations of powers. Take Niki's and Knox's abilities, for example... Sincerely, Thrashmeister [ U | T | C ] 22:35, 20 October 2008 (EDT)
• For now any references must be Arthur's ability until we're given an official name for it or there's consensus as to what name it should have. See Talk:Arthur's ability for any discussion on the ability's name. (Admin 22:32, 20 October 2008 (EDT))
  • I agree, I'm just theorizing for now. :P Sincerely, Thrashmeister [ U | T | C ] 22:35, 20 October 2008 (EDT)
• Indeed, what an episode, left me half-disappointed, half-wowed. BTW, Heroes Interactive:Dying of the Light is up now. I'm heading off for the night. Did we see auras through Arthur's eyes? If not, I'd hesitate to call it that and would just make it as Arthur's ability for now.--MiamiVolts (talk) 01:09, 21 October 2008 (EDT)

Treatment of villains

I hated how they ended things with Adam, another great villain taken out like nothing (Canfield could've been great, gone. Adam WAS great, could've been more great, gone). However, I liked Doyle's storyline, think it ended appropriately. He's sick. Speaking of villains, who all was painted around the Pinehearst logo that Usutsu drew? JackOfBloodyHearts 22:10, 20 October 2008 (EDT)

I'm wondering that too. It seemed like the man on the upper left... was a Two Face type character? Not entirely sure. Sincerely, Thrashmeister [ U | T | C ] 22:12, 20 October 2008 (EDT)

I'm pretty sure I saw Mohinder. Therequiembellishere 22:13, 20 October 2008 (EDT)

That would make sense. Like Dr. Jekyll/Mr. Hyde or Gabriel Gray/Sylar. But I really hope they don't make him into a villain. :/ Sincerely, Thrashmeister [ U | T | C ] 22:15, 20 October 2008 (EDT)

I'm sure that Arthur was the upper lefthand corner. Jrrenola 22:20, 20 October 2008 (EDT)

Agreed about Canfield. Here's a link to a screencap, I don't know how to upload these things. it looks like arthur in the top left, knox on the bottom left, and possibly maury or flint in on the bottom right

Okay, so that's definitely Arthur on the upper left... Knox in the bottom left... That's probably Flint in the bottom right... is the person in the upper right Sylar? That'd be kind of disappointing if it was. Sincerely, Thrashmeister [ U | T | C ] 07:52, 21 October 2008 (EDT)

Here's the screenshot: 100pxx100px

That funky Petrelli family

Interesting how Arthur, Peter, and Gabriel all have similar abilities (hereditary?) Arthur can steal the ability using physical contact without necessarily killing the owner (but the owner loses the ability). Gabriel can steal the ability through physical contact, although it most often kills the owner. Peter can absorb the ability without taking it from the owner or killing the owner. Jrrenola 22:26, 20 October 2008 (EDT)

• yeah, and do u remember claude saying to peter "ohh so you are one of those..."?¿ :P great! --cookie 01:27, 21 October 2008 (EDT)
