| Ability to: | Manipulate people's ability |
Ability manipulation is the ability to absorb people's ability and implant ability to others through physical contact.
Characters
- Arthur Petrelli had this ability.
- Peter Petrelli had absorbed this ability.
Limits
Arthur's ability can allow him to manipulate people's ability, which mean he can absorb people's ability or implant ability to the others. He only can implant the ability he absorbed (but ability manipulation cannot be implanted), and the target should be evolved human, because most of the normal people's body cannot accept this great change.
Examples
...and drains his ability, causing him to rapidly age...
...until he finally decays and is nothing more than a pile of dust.
