Enhanced hearing

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

Enhanced hearing is the ability to hear any sound at any volume, 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 at her shop, Sylar experiences headaches, similar to those Dale explained; Mohinder triggers many sounds which are amplified in Sylar's hearing. (Unexpected)
• While interrogating Sylar, Mohinder taps a tuning fork and places it to Sylar's ears, causing him tremendous pain.(Parasite)
• On the phone, Sylar hears Mohinder dial 911. (The Hard Part)
• Sylar hears Ando gulp behind a painting, then hears Hiro and Ando's heartbeats as they follow him around. (The Hard Part)
• After hearing Hiro's heartbeat, Sylar tells him that he recognized it from Isaac's loft. (The Hard Part)
• Sylar uses his enhanced hearing to eavesdrop on Mr. Bennet, Peter, Claire, Matt, and Ted. (Landslide)
