Relationship with Nathan

Sorry, I'm still new around here and don't want to splash the waters until I know the system =) Should there be some sort of section describing Nathan and Peter's relationship? Specifically, that Nathan frowns upon Peter's career choice and that Nathan considering Peter the less favored son? Kail Ceannai 02:10, 29 November 2006 (EST)

  • It certainly wouldn't hurt. Personally, I think as we get to know the characters better, we'll be better off focusing on articles about the characters, rather than a strict character history (which is already getting kind of bloated and will probably need to be summarized and moved to a subpage by the end of the season.) I'd say go for it, and we can do the same for the other main characters over time. Maybe an "About" section before the "History" section would be a good way to make it consistent?--Hardvice (talk) 02:16, 29 November 2006 (EST)

Powers mimicked

  • Let's keep an eye on the section about powers he may not have conclusively mimicked, we dont want it to become another list of Sylar's theorized powers. :) If it generates debate let's just move that part of it to Theories so we don't have to worry about it. (Admin 22:44, 6 December 2006 (EST))
    • So no theorizing about "What if the Haitian and Peter were in the same room together?" Aw, dang! - RyanGibsonStewart (talk) 22:53, 6 December 2006 (EST)
    • Yeah, I tried to keep it as confirmed as possible, and yet complete enough that it doesn't degenerate into a speculation fest. It's much easier to say "yes, we noted that, thank you" than delete the same thing a thousand times and say "that's already on the Theories page".--Hardvice (talk) 23:22, 6 December 2006 (EST)

Empathy

  • Is it too late to suggest Peter's power be called "empathy" rather than "mimicry"? In Peter's case it seems suitable somehow. --Tocky 10:03, 23 December 2006 (EST)
    • It's discussed in the Theories page, but for now wall that's confirmed is that he can copy powers. Once more is known from a canon source, we can change it as appropriate.--Hardvice (talk) 10:42, 23 December 2006 (EST)
      • Fair enough. It's mostly just a semantic thing, anyway - I figure 'empathy' sort of conveys that the other person needs to be present, and also matches well with his character. I'm not going to argue about it, though. --Tocky 10:57, 23 December 2006 (EST)

Sickness

Peter seems to be sick since Homecoming. Should this article mention this illness? It seems to contradict his complete healing. He would have shook off the illness when Claire visited him in the jail. --AverageMan 15:13, 29 December 2006 (EST)

  • Peter's illness is addressed (briefly) in the Notes section. --Ted C 15:38, 29 December 2006 (EST)

Power Retention

Not sure if this is mentioned elsewhere, but Tim Kring made a comment about Peter that seems to suggest that he doesn't just mimic the abilities of those he comes in contact with, but he actually gains them permanently. Apparently, this is one of the things that Claude will be doing - showing him how to access all the aquired abilities of his own will, rather than automatically. Until it comes up in the shows canon, I wouldn't go 100% on this, however, as things can and do change all the time. :) --Yoshie 09:40, 04 January 2007 (EST)
