So we know that Adam stopped aging once his healing abilities "kicked in" when Hiro met him. Eventually a human's body stops "growing" when your cells are repairing at a faster rate then they are being destroyed, and the process switches at around 30 years old.

So is it safe to assume that Claire will forever be 30 years old like Adam?

I'm thinking that Claire's ability kicked in earlier than Kensei's and that what you see is what you get - she'll be forever young.

Her abilities were with her when she was born. Remember she survived the house fire when she was a baby that her mother started?

mmm... right. I don't know then. Maybe they'll explore more about that. hopefully.

I was just guessing since she looked pretty much the same in the future as she did now that her ability was in full effect when she became a teenager and that she'd basically just stay that way.

I hope she stops aging once she turns 25 or 26, she needs to grow abit taller b4 aging, rite now she looks like a little short 13 yr old girl.

well, the actress that plays her is short (Hayden) so I think that for the terms of this show, what you see is what you get. Maybe cutting her hair shorter or giving her a different hairstyle would make it seem like she was older. [I mean more different than just changing her hair color and pulling it back]

I like her dark hair but hate it when she pulls it back. Season 1 or 2 future Claire had her hair down, that was beautiful (Hayden is breathtaking!)

looking forward to learning more of her ability especially when she'll stop aging...

it's interesting though that adam stopped aging a in his 30's when he got his powers yet claire still grew even though she gotten her powers since she was a baby...so looking forward to seeing how it'll play out...

I'm not sure they were there since she was born...I mean, in season one she was 15, right? And that was when her powers started surprising her. I don't think she can go through 15 years without getting a single cut that instahealed and revealed her power (especially when she has pierced ears!). I'm guessing she'll stay a teen forever.

*gets stampeded by the Claire Fanboys upon entering the thread*
*pops dislocated shoulder back into place*

Why am I in this thread again? Oh, right, to reply.

Well, it was only four years in the future. I don't think a lot of physical growth can take place in such a short amount of time, but that's just my opinion. (Wether it's fact is another matter.)

Besides, her staying a teenager forever is kind of silly when Adam has the exact same power and is in his 30's. Plus there's the fact that
Hayden herself will age in real life and you can't do anything about that.

On the other hand, it could be possible that Claire just has a naturally youthful appearance but could still be aging.

Not to sound vain, but I'm a good example of "not" aging.
I am 5'1 and I have a baby face. I'm often (very often!) mistaken for being only 16 years old when I'm really 23. So, this could be Claire's deal, too. She's just short.

Dangit, I really don't like her, but I take enjoyment from this speculating because I love plots that have to do with aging and stuff.

i think she will always be 17 because that is when she got her abilties and really stated using it!
