Character History
Season One
For an episode-by-episode summary, see Micah Sanders: Season One History.
Micah repairs his computer when his mother tells him to get his things and to leave with her. They go to his school so his mother can talk to his principal. When they leave, Niki drops him off at Tina's house where Micah waits a long time for her return. When Niki finally picks him up, she takes him home before taking him to the desert and eventually to his grandmother's house. He tells his mother he believes his father is innocent. Back at Tina's he reveals to Niki that he knows how she makes a living, and prefers it over what she is about to do.
When the two return home, D.L. arrives and fights with Jessica, taking Micah after he knocks her out. Driving away, the two meet Hiro and Ando while saving a woman. That night, Micah uses a broken payphone to call his mother, instead getting Jessica, until D.L. stops him. Micah persists that they should go back for Niki, but D.L. initially refuses until Micah tells him about Jessica. However, Jessica is already present and shots at D.L. who phases to survive. After Jessica hurts Micah, Niki regains control and turns herself in to the police.
Micah then begins living with his father. Soon, he visits Niki in jail and later takes money from an ATM for his father. Niki is soon released and the family is finally reunited.
However, soon a woman poses as his mother introducing him to Linderman, who wants Micah's help. Micah leaves with Linderman. He soon realizes that someone is impersonating his mother, and tries to escape. However, Candice uses her power to keep him confined. The next day, she uses him to cause Nathan Petrelli to win in the election. Micah complies and then is taken back to the room by Candice. A day later, Niki comes to his rescue and the two go find D.L. who is hurt near Mohinder and Molly. He uses his ability to activate a broken elevator allowing them to escape to Kirby Plaza where they witness the showdown, and finally the explosion. Two days later he chats with Hana about D.L.'s condition.

- In the unaired pilot, Micah is seen talking on the phone with the ticket sales office of a train station about a trip taking "a couple of hours". It is unclear where he is planning to go or why (he did offer to buy the tickets when he arrived at the station) because he is interrupted by Tina and is forced to hang up. Later, Micah has run off, along with $300 from Tina's purse. (In His Own Image)
- Micah is currently one of the youngest characters known to have demonstrated a superhuman power, along with Sanjog Iyer and Molly Walker.
