  • Empathic Mimicry
rdfs:comment
  • Empathic mimicry is Marco Ivanov's special ability to duplicate the abilities of others.
  • Empathic Mimicry is the ability to absorb abilities and reproduce them based on the emotions that they are connected with. Those with empathic mimicry are extremely rare and often do not understand how to use all of their abilities until forced, perhaps as a defense mechanism or the like. Abilities are often unknowingly copied by those with the power of empathic mimicry when within a certain range of others with anomalistic abilities.
  • User can imitate the powers of those around them via an emotion associated with the powers and use them as their own.
  • Empathic Mimicry is the power to reproduce the powers of other advanced humans within proximity of the user. Peter Petrelli was the first and only person to naturally possess this power. He at first needed to be within proximity of the power's source but later learned to recall and use the mimicked powers at will. It was later stolen by his father, Arthur Petrelli in "Dying of the Light". It can also be noted that Peter mimics the exact ability he comes into contact with because when he encountered Flint Gordan Jr's fine-tuned pyrokinesis Peter's flames were also blue.

  • Empathic Mimicry is the power to reproduce the powers of other advanced humans within proximity of the user. Peter Petrelli was the first and only person to naturally possess this power. He at first needed to be within proximity of the power's source but later learned to recall and use the mimicked powers at will. It was later stolen by his father, Arthur Petrelli in "Dying of the Light". The exact range at which mimicry occurs is not known, but Peter could mimic Claude's ability from at least several meters away. He could duplicate Claude's ability almost immediately upon coming within range. Whether the maximum distance and minimum time is the same to mimic any ability is uncertain. Peter did not necessarily have to see other people's abilities in use to absorb them. In The Hard Part, Peter began to absorb Ted Sprague's ability even though Ted had not used it in his presence. Also he absorbed at least two abilities on Kirby Plaza during his fight with Sylar: Niki's enhanced strength and D.L.'s phasing. Niki was standing right next to him, but D.L. was much farther away. It has to be at this point that he absorbs D.L.'s ability, as Peter had never encountered D.L. before and never encountered D.L. again before his death. If this is so, he may also have absorbed Molly's clairvoyance and Micah's technopathy, but he has never displayed these abilities. It can also be noted that Peter mimics the exact ability he comes into contact with because when he encountered Flint Gordan Jr's fine-tuned pyrokinesis Peter's flames were also blue.
