Ability to:
sense what ability a person has

Ability sensing is the power to detect whether or not a person possesses an ability, and to identify the ability or abilities he or she possesses.

Characters[]

Limits[]

Sean O'Brien[]

Sean can sense whether or not an individual has an ability, and after spending more time near this person he can also sense what the ability is and a little of how it works. When he encounters an evolved human, he perceives their ability or abilities as a sort of tingling. The more abilities a person has, the more complex the tingling is. With some extremely familiar individuals, like his fiancee Sinead or close friend Eoin, he can follow a "trace" of this ability to locate them. He has also proved able to sense the strengths and weaknesses of an ability, and occasionally of the individual who holds the ability.

Keitaro Kiryuu[]

Keitaro absorbed this ability from Sean using conscious mimicry and has the same aspects and limits. However, he has never used it to "trace" a person.

Liz Jones[]

Liz also mimicked the ability from Sean and can use it in the same way. However, to date she has only used it to recognise and identify abilities.

Dexter Lee[]

Dexter has similar limits to Sean. At first, he didn't know he had the ability - or any - and he mistook its effects on himself for the effects of a hangover. He was since found by the New Company and now knows what he can do.

James Herriford[]

James has a different variation of the ability. He sees abilities as a sort of blurred film over an individual. Each ability has a visibly separate film, and therefore this can be used to detect how many abilities someone has, and if they have manifested or gained a new ability. With a bit more difficulty and concentration, he can also identify the ability or abilities he senses.

Daniel Vaughan-Reist-Greene[]

Daniel has the same variation and limits as James.

Peter Petrelli[]

Peter also has the same variation and limits as James.

Gregory Reed[]

Gregory can sense abilities, identify them and explain them. However, it is unknown exactly how he perceives the abilities.

Reed "Red" Reed[]

"Red" has the same limits as her father. This ability helps her in identifying which abilities to mimic.

Unnamed Agent[]

The unnamed agent could sense abilities as a tingle, similarly to Sean. If he focused on an individual, he could then name and explain the ability or abilities he or she had.

Leo Castern[]

Leo has the same limits as the above agent. He's also shown the capability to sense whether an ability is naturally or artificially induced.

Matthew Harper[]

Matthew was shown sensing that Grace Bradley possessed an ability. He can identify if a person is an evolved human, detect which abilities they have, and gain a sense of how each ability functions. However, the more abilities a person possesses, the more difficult he finds this.
