Accelerated probability is the ability to see what choice one should make when confronted with a situation, to predict the outcomes of certain situations, and then to accelerate oneself along that path of causality immediately.

Characters

• Kaito Nakamura possessed this ability in World 8 and World 11, and was shown possessing it canonically in a deleted scene.

• Edward also has this ability, like his son.
• An unnamed marine possessed this ability in World 5, mostly likely gained using the formula.

• Gabriel Silvestor had this ability naturally.
• Arthur Petrelli has taken this ability from Kaito in World 11.

Limits

The ability enables someone to see all the variables and possible outcomes of any situation, and use these to calculate what actions to take. The process is amazingly quick, occuring within seconds. A side-effect of the ability also grants speed and amazing reflexes, to a similar degree as permanent precognition or reflexive precognition. It is nowhere near as fast as enhanced speed or any other similar ability. Edward has also been shown creating and discharging a form of electricity, but it is unknown how this connects with the rest of the ability's aspects, and none of the others have done the same.
