Power of Persuasion : Peter

[chicko20_cavs23]

I dont kno if anyone has thought about this but didnt he meet that girl with the power of persuasion.. so now peter has that power? jus wondering

[Drolfin]

He met Eden in Mohinder's apartment in Collision, i believe. If he does have it, he probably doesn't know about it. Also, there's the whole speculation about whether people have to still be alive for Peter to use their power.

[chrisxs5]

Thats a good point about people being alive. They were also at the Highschool to trap Sylar when Peter was there. So the question would be also, how close does he have to be to gain their powers. He could've collected the Haitans in that scenario. If he does have Edens powers he could tell someone "to go fly a kite" and run into them at the park a week later to discover they have been since he said that.

I have a feeling he does have her power but doesn't know how to use it since he didn't know she had a power in the first place.

[Uffr]

He has it. You heard him use the voice in the last episode.

[christian_kryptonian]

Ah yes, the VOICE...good point out. I do not think he has the Hatian's power though. He never got close enough physically, let alone emotionally which is obviously how he taps into his power.

[chrisxs5]

"The Voice", different things to different people. I believe it has been added for dramatics and nothing more. The voice didnt come from Peter anyways. That is voice that Peter and Sylar have used when they're mad. Eden never used a loud/deep voice.

[emjay]

Why would a hero have to be alive for Peter to use their power? Peter's power involves his DNA restructuring itself to include new abilities. I doubt that this restructure includes some kind of link to the person, to restructure his genes again when (or if) they die.

Peter's knowledge of a power does not limit his use of it. He didn't know about Nathan's power when he tried to fly. He didn't know about Claire's power when he jumped off the ampitheater, and he didn't know about Matt or Claude's powers when he met them.

^^^ exactly.

It they were to be alive, then that would mean his powers work off a "connection". I find that a bit of a stretch.

Also, the speculation is easily crushed from the fact that he used the POP against Issac in "Unexpected".

Well I'm going to have to go back and look at some reruns but I'm pretty sure she did use a deep scary voice at times while using her power.

[angeloo]

idk but i think that deep scary voice is when theyre power take over them because sylar does that and he doesnt have POP... and peter did it when he got mad and his powers were starting to take over

[Skoellya]

Actually, Eden has used a type of "voice" In six months ago when talking to Matt Parkman, telling him to go eat donuts and when telling Sylar to sleep. She used it when people are resisting what she wants them to do more. I think it's pretty certain Peter has the ability.

[DiscoDyslexic]

I saw, once, one of the creators of the show said the voice thing they [Peter and Sylar] have done is just a techniuqe the directers and whoever use as effect, like how it would sound if you heard what Isaac heard, just to make them sound more intimidating.

I'm sure Peter has the persuasion power, that I don't believe he's ever used. He's just not aware of it, and I believe that he's got more powers that even we're not aware of.

[Superboy2]

Claude was about 10 feet away when he went invisible and ran away from Peter. I think you have to be pretty close for Peter to absorb the power. It would be cool if he finds out about another power, and doesn't know who it came from. Then we meet the hero next week. Which episode did he meet Eden in? I forgot.

[angeloo]

dont know what episode but he was right next to her they shook hands

Not "fact" but speculation! We have all thought he has (incuding me) but no solid evidence to prove what we wish.

[chrisxs5]

I went back and watched some one POP eps with Eden (because their is nothing else to do on Mon nights) and when she used her power she had a deep echoing voice that was prominent. Then I watched the Isaac/Peter incident and that voice was not there. Also Isaac had already telling him the truth about his feelings before Peter said anything.

[chicko20_cavs23]

well they definitely met each others... so i jus assume that he has her power now.

[Antoin]

YOuve got to remember that it appears that people who exhibit powers need to impact Peter somehow in order for him to remember them and use their abilitys. If he doesn't know they have powers then he most probably won't be able to use them.
I can remember reading something about how Peter actually gains powers but i dont want to add any spoilers. I sware soemones already put it down in the Spoiler forum.

[chrisxs5]

True, of course some powers he can just pull out by accident.
Example
Time Travel: He knows Hiro can do it, but doesnt know how to use it.
Telekinisis: Forgot all about it, did remember it at all until he used it against Claude.
Regen: He knew that one, but was unable to use it until he had to.
Invisbility: Came automatically, but was taught to control it.

[Antoin]

yeh all those proove my point

[Rod-zod]

I wonder if there is an end point to how long he can use it. There has to be a limit to what he can do.

I have been saying that since the begining! Some way to "reset" him and Sylar!:confused:
