Santiago uses his ability during a soccer match. | |
Held by: | Santiago, Edward |
Ability to: | Predict the outcome of events |
Examples of accelerated probability |
Accelerated probability is the ability to see what choice one should make when confronted with a situation, the user can sense all the variables of any situation, predict the outcomes and what choices one could make to reach the conclusion they want. When utilizing this ability, they sense paths projected in front of them, illuminating possible courses of action, they can then foresee the best tactic, and accelerate themselves along that path. The user can create strategies and plans several steps ahead of the opponent seeming like the user can see into the future, able to create elaborate complex plans and strategies and apply them in not just in battle but any other activity that involves cunning intellect,.E.g Strategic games. The user can instantly understand anything by perceiving all the causes/effects it is currently made of, as well as all the previous ones that leaded to this state. For example, a simple glance at someone would be enough to learn their nature, personality, history, expectations, strengths, weaknesses, etc. The perception can also be turned to the person's future, its many paths, their probabilities, and the one which will eventually be realized. The user is able to perceive all cause and effect relations. They can notably deduce the path leading to any effect, allowing him to plan, analyze, and take action with absolute efficiency.
Characters
- Santiago possesses this ability. (Destiny, Part 1)
- Edward also possesses this ability. (Destiny, Part 4)
Limits
Santiago
Santiago has shown to be able to react rapidly to situations. For example, when he was about to be hit by a bus, he was capable of thinking while the bus moved in slow motion. His body also appeared to be in slow motion as he remained in the same position when the bus was going to hit him, even though he remained aware of everything. However, he has shown that he can use his ability to move at greater speeds, as he was capable of suddenly fleeing from the bus.
Santiago's ability also allows him to predict the probability and movement of objects at an accelerated rate. For instance, he could see the path his bag would take while it was in mid-air and use that knowledge to catch it.
Edward
Like his son Santiago, Edward can also see paths ahead of him. He used this ability to sneak up on a woman at greater than normal speed. In addition, Edward has developed the ability to discharge electricity. He is capable of creating electrical arcs from both hands, and does so in such a way as to create a large ball or sphere that can be directed at people.
Selected Examples
-
Santiago is about to get hit by a bus...
-
...but he sees the outcome...
-
...and jumps out of the way.
(Destiny, Part 1) -
Santiago zooms around the field of play...
-
...examining the play from opponent #7's perspective.
(Destiny, Part 2) -
Santiago searches for a way out of a secure warehouse.
-
Santiago turns the tables on the serious looking woman.
(Destiny, Part 3) -
Edward's accelerated probability has progressed to the point that he can generate a lethal electric force.
(Destiny, Part 4)
Notes
- Future Gabriel described his ability as the ability to "understand the outcome of events" and "predict action and reaction". His ability should not be confused with Santiago's ability to predict probabilities.
- When Santiago first exhibits his ability on the soccer field the tracks he makes somewhat resemble the logo of Sprint, the company who sponsored the Create Your Hero promotion.
- In a question and answer session, writers Joe Pokaski and Aron Coleite said that Santiago's speed "is just a byproduct" of his ability to see various possibilities, and isn't as fast as Daphne's super speed.
- In an interview, writers Adam Armus and Kay Foster said, "Santiago inherited his ability from his father--the power of accelerated probability. But Edward spent many, many years in the organization and his power evolved. He was able to generate a lethal electric force. Was this a natural occurrence (evolution) or was he manipulated somehow by the organization?"
