== Could the Hatian's ability of memory manipulation be his only power? ==
== Most Recent Edit By RGS!  ==


I think that something like neurocognitive deficit is too wordy, although i think mental manipulation is an inaccurate term, its one that is not as wordy. 
You said ''Peter needed to actively concentrate on healing the damaged parts for it to work however, as for some reason regeneration doesn't heal the damage automatically.'' I think the reason it doesn't heal automatically is that the body doesn't know it's been damaged so won't heal it. Also the fact that regeneration has something to do with the brain (the spot that stops it) it is more likely to have been damaged and stop the healing. Or at least that's what I think. --[[User:Mc hammark|mc_hammark]] 06:56, 29 August 2009 (EDT)
 
* I think you are right, it's about knowing you are hurt. When Peter thought about Nathan, his brain realized there's something wrong with it, and initiated rapid healing. It's different for Claire though, her ability evolved in the way brain automatically heals any trauma. {{User:Altes/Signature}}
Could perhaps that the Haitian's blocking ability is related to his memory erasure, like the Haitian makes the mind forget they either had an ability or know how to use it subconsciously.  [[User:horrorman|horrorman]] 20:47, 11 December 2007 (EST)
*well, ''physical trauma'', not emotional. --[[User:Mc hammark|mc_hammark]] 08:15, 29 August 2009 (EDT)
 
** Memory loss is indeed a physical trauma... or rather a ''chemical'' one. {{User:Altes/Signature}}
* They're definitely related somehow. People certainly don't forget that they have powers, since many of them try to use them in his presence.  It's possibly he's instead causing them to forget how to activate their powers; however, were that the case, it seems likely that the effect would be permanent, like his memory erasures.  Instead, the effect only lasts while they are in his presence.--[[User:Hardvice|Hardvice]] <small>[[User talk:Hardvice|(talk)]]</small> 22:59, 11 December 2007 (EST)
***No no, you misinterpret me! I was joking about the fact Claire cries and gets upset so much. --[[User:Mc hammark|mc_hammark]] 08:23, 29 August 2009 (EDT)
 
**** Ah, I get it =) {{User:Altes/Signature}}
 
* What does this have to do with me? My only edit to this page in the past couple months was to [http://heroeswiki.com/index.php?title=Mental_manipulation&diff=357491&oldid=357486 fix a couple spelling errors]. -- {{User:Ryangibsonstewart/sig}} 23:24, 29 August 2009 (EDT)
It's seems to make memories forget permanently he must be in physical contact range to do so i.e. with his hand over their eyes.  But perhaps with abilities he can induce an electrical signal of sorts sometimes unwittingly as we see with his father that makes the subconscious deactivate the triggering mechanism. It doesn't affect inherit powers either because he allows them to be active, or due to their passive nature and therefore not requiring concentration he cannot shut off the trigger. [[User:horrorman|horrorman]] 23:03, 11 December 2007 (EST)
** You probably mentioned it in an edit in another article. [[User:Intuitive Empath|Intuitive Empath]] - [[User talk:Intuitive Empath|Talk]] - [[Special:Contributions/Intuitive Empath|Contributions]] 11:00, 30 August 2009 (EDT)
**I think that his ability is MEMORY DELETION. He seems to require physical contact to make the forgetting permanent but at a distance especially with evolved humans he makes them forget the subconscious triggers of their powers. Passive powers are simply activated constantly in the conscious mind and it requires no triger so he [The Haitian] cannot negate it.  And for active powers if you struggle hard enough (causing injury or nosebleeds([[Fallout]])).[[User:horrorman|horrorman]] 12:00, 12 December 2007 (EST)
*** Consider this analogy that, while complete speculation, may help understand how The Haitian's power could work.  I don't know how many people have ever tried placing a magnet near a CRT television (which are becoming less and less common nowadays), but a magnet will discolor the image (don't try this out on a good television, please).  If you leave the magnet close to the television for too long the discoloration becomes permanent. His powers may work in a similar way. He may be able to interfere with the part of the brain that manifests the abilities. When he erases memories he could be using more intensity so that the interference leaves a permanent effect (like the magnet above).  If his power works along these lines there are some interesting possibilities... could he kill someone by interfering with autonomic parts of the brain?  It's interesting (albeit complete speculation on my part). ([[User:Admin|Admin]] 12:29, 12 December 2007 (EST))
 
 
I think this may be true, he seems ot have caused significant brain damage to Mrs. Bennet such as a hemorrage and complete memory loss at times.  He must use a sort of electrical signal to kill the brain cells. 
 
[[User:horrorman|horrorman]] 12:44, 12 December 2007 (EST)
 
== Could the Haitians ability be lethal? ==
 
*The Haitian was able to turn his villagers into mindless zombies by simply reaching in and taking their memories.  Could he perhaps erase the brains capability of working, killing them?
 
[[User:horrorman|horrorman]]  18:17, 12 December 2007 (EST)
 
==Remove rename==
* So are we all in agreement that there's not enough evidence to say that "neurocognitive deficit" is explicitly a reference to the Haitian's power and/or its effects?  If so, we should remove the rename.--[[User:Hardvice|Hardvice]] <small>[[User talk:Hardvice|(talk)]]</small> 02:19, 13 December 2007 (EST)
** I am. that change would have been an eyesore. Although to me it would be like that time the [[Wikipedia:Los Angeles Angels of Anaheim|Anaheim Angels]] thought they changed their name to The Los Angeles Angels of Anaheim.--{{User:SacValleyDweller/sig}} 02:35, 13 December 2007 (EST)
*** Yeah, there's no evidence neurocognitive deficit is related. I pulled the rename template.--[[User:MiamiVolts|MiamiVolts]] ([[User_talk:MiamiVolts|talk]]) 02:42, 13 December 2007 (EST)
 
== "Call in a Nullifier! Call in the Haitian!" ==
 
Nullification? As of the newest Graphic Novel, at least. --[[User:Riddler|Riddler]] 04:12, 15 July 2008 (EDT)
* Unfortunately, the comment isn't the same as explicitly saying the Haitian's ability is "ability nullification". The Haitian can both nullify abilities and erase memories, so that's why we have mental manipulation. I see what you're saying, though. See [[talk:constriction]] for a similar discussion.--[[User:MiamiVolts|MiamiVolts]] ([[User_talk:MiamiVolts|talk]]) 04:39, 15 July 2008 (EDT)
* When it comes to this ability name I'd really like to see the writers (or an actual episode of the show) give us a name for it.  It's an ability we've seen for so long and is complicated to completely qualify with a single term so it'd be nice to have an authoritative source explicitly name it.  An assignment tracker page would be fantastic. (hint hint)  ([[User:Admin|Admin]] 10:43, 15 July 2008 (EDT))
* One could say he nullifies the target's memory. Also, the debate has been going on for so long now, if a profile was created, odds are the writers would just call it mental manipulation, like what happened with mediumship. --[[User:Yamawhata?|Yamawhata?]] 17:49, 2 September 2008 (EDT)
** Mediumship? Huh? RD Hall called it that before we even really had the page created. In fact, he sent me an email after our [[interview:R.D. Hall|interview]] and asked me if we had created the page yet. By coincidence, we had used the same name he said. -- {{User:Ryangibsonstewart/sig}} 18:50, 2 September 2008 (EDT)
*** Heh. FWIW, that was kind of a Neil Armstrong moment there, as regards to the RD Hall interview... When I transcribed that part of the interview, I guess I wasn't really able to make out what he had said. I thought he had said "Medium receptive" (as is documented in my initial transcription [http://heroeswiki.com/index.php?title=Interview:R.D._Hall&oldid=173967 here]). It was clarified afterwards that he meant "Mediumship" and supposedly had also said that.--[[User:MiamiVolts|MiamiVolts]] ([[User_talk:MiamiVolts|talk]]) 19:19, 2 September 2008 (EDT)
**** The impression I got from the mediumship page was that the writer borrowed our term for it. Sorry if I got it wrong. I was also thinking about intuitive aptitude, which I am sure we came up with long before they did. --[[User:Yamawhata?|Yamawhata?]] 16:46, 3 September 2008 (EDT)
 
== Effects on Human Memory correction ==
 
Quote in question:
 
"Noah explains to Ivan that the Haitian can remove specific memories, insinuating that this ability was previously unknown to Ivan."
 
 
IIRC, Noah actually ''states'' that his friend here has learned a new trick, so it's actually confirmed more than insinuated that Ivan didn't know about the selective memory removal.
 
[[User:Stevehim|Stevehim]] 04:40, 27 September 2008 (EDT)
 
==Better Pic==
Who about when he puts his hand into Peters head?--[[User:Skywalkerrbf|Skywalkerrbf]] 16:12, 5 October 2008 (EDT)
* I don't understand what you're saying. -- {{User:Ryangibsonstewart/sig}} 20:32, 5 October 2008 (EDT)
** I believe he's saying there should be a different lead picture for the article, more specifically one of him putting his hand on Peter's head. I personally don't even remember that.--[[User:Riddler|Riddler]] 20:44, 5 October 2008 (EDT)
*** [[:Image:Powers haitian wipes peter.jpg|This one?]] I think the lead image we have now is fine. -- {{User:Ryangibsonstewart/sig}} 21:02, 5 October 2008 (EDT)
**** Ew. Definitely.--[[User:Riddler|Riddler]] 21:11, 5 October 2008 (EDT)
 
I think he is referring to, when Peter was in the crate in Season 2 the one that went to Ireland
{50000JH}
 
== Explanation of speculation removal - power affecting different abilities ==
 
The idea that the Haitian's powers affect different abilities to different degrees is speculation, as we don't know if he was using his power or not (especially since all of the instances involve a Petrelli, and he was secretly working for Angela at the time of each incident), and should not be present in the body of the article.  Any ideas in that regard should probably go in the notes section, or be designated unknown (eg - "It is unknown if the Haitian's power equally affects all abilities").  --[[User:Stevehim|Stevehim]] 09:59, 1 November 2008 (EDT)
 
== Examples of abilities blocked ==
 
When was the Haitian's power shown to stop [[sound manipulation]] or [[enhanced strength]]? -- {{User:Ryangibsonstewart/sig}} 14:26, 1 November 2008 (EDT)
* The Haitian blocked both in the graphic novel where Knox and Jesse are captured by Noah and him (''[[Graphic Novel:The Sting of Injustice]]'').--[[User:MiamiVolts|MiamiVolts]] ([[User_talk:MiamiVolts|talk]]) 14:28, 1 November 2008 (EDT)
** But they're not up there now...? -- [[User:FlamingTomDude|FlamingTomDude]] 21:17, 16 November 2008 (EST)
*** That's because they're using a template that needs to be deleted. I'll take care of it. -- {{User:Ryangibsonstewart/sig}} 21:21, 16 November 2008 (EST)
** Did the events of ''[[Graphic Novel:The Sting of Injustice]]'' take place before those of ''[[Four Months Ago]]''?  If not, we should change the blocking of enhanced strength to the latter, since he prevented Peter from using it then.  While I'm on the subject, do we have any way to determine where the GN's/Webisodes/iStory fit in the overall timeline, in relation to events of the episodes?  I wanted to make one (or add it to the existing one), but I have no idea where to start or how to find out when everything took place.  --[[User:Stevehim|Stevehim]] 18:24, 30 December 2008 (EST)
*** Yes. HRG quit the Company before Four Months Ago, and did not go back to work until Knox escaped. - [[User:Josh|Josh]] ([[User talk:Josh|talk]]/[[Special:Contributions/Josh|contribs]]) 14:42, 15 January 2009 (EST)
Did West try to fly away from The Haitain in Special{50000JH}
**** I don't remember, but the Haitian did erase his memory. [[User:Intuitive Empath|Intuitive Empath]] - [[User talk:Intuitive Empath|Talk]] - [[Special:Contributions/Intuitive Empath|Contributions]] 14:30, 20 June 2009 (EDT)
cause if he did try to fly the Haitain might of blocked flight{50000JH}
*****I remember West flying, just don't remember what happened to him after it. [[User:Intuitive Empath|Intuitive Empath]] - [[User talk:Intuitive Empath|Talk]] - [[Special:Contributions/Intuitive Empath|Contributions]] 14:38, 20 June 2009 (EDT)
 
== Telepathy ==
 
I believe this power to be a derived form of [[Telepathy]], as telepaths can steal memories (as told to us by Arthur Petrelli). Perhaps the Haitian is just really good at certain aspects of Telepathy (power nullification) and not good at others (mind reading).--[[User:Oxico|Oxico]] 07:39, 13 November 2008 (EST)
 
He didn't steal Angela's memories, he altered them, which is not the same thing as erasing them. Linderman said he erased them, so it might be possible, but there are other abilities that though different can cause the same effects, this is just one of them. [[User:Intuitive Empath|Intuitive Empath]] 10:43, 13 November 2008 (EST)
 
I don't know it's just too similar.--[[User:Oxico|Oxico]] 19:24, 19 November 2008 (EST)
* I know what you mean. But to elaborate on your comments, maybe its not because the Haitian isn't good at mind reading and the like, we just haven't seen the Haitian use his ability like Matt. [[User:Titan3510|Titan3510]] 18:54, 2 December 2008 (EST)
 
Maury was able to block Matt's telepath ability, Noah also commented on what the brain control you control, so Haitain power could be telepathic and Matt could block abilities and it is another of his development like precognition{50000JH}
 
If the Haitian was telepathic, he'd have done many other things, simpler things. He didn't. [[User:Intuitive Empath|Intuitive Empath]] - [[User talk:Intuitive Empath|Talk]] - [[Special:Contributions/Intuitive Empath|Contributions]] 14:30, 20 June 2009 (EDT)
 
== Arthur and Hiro ==
 
<i> Arthur's intention was to erase only those memories Hiro gained on his spirit walk, but due to Ando's interruption and Arthur's preoccupation with one of Usutu's paintings of an eclipse, he mistakenly erased years worth of Hiro's memory, leaving Hiro in the mentality that he was ten years old. </i>
When did this come up? I don't remember hearing that in an episode... --[[User:Yamawhata?|Yamawhata?]] 21:21, 4 December 2008 (EST)
:It was confirmed in one of the most recent "Behind the Eclipse" interviews. <small>'''Sincerely, Thrashmeister [ [[User:Thrashmeister|U]] | [[User_talk:Thrashmeister|T]] | [[Special:Contributions/Thrashmeister|C]] ]'''</small> 21:29, 4 December 2008 (EST)

== Confirmation of Peter having Absorbed MM ==
 
If [[Arthur]] stole it from [[Peter]] and used it on [[Hiro]], this confirms that Peter had absorbed it (and thus should have been capable of mimicking it). Should [[Peter Petrelli (exposed future)]] be listed as a confirmed user then, since he informed Claire in the gn [[Resistance]] that he "made her forget" things before? [[User:GabrielPetrelli|GabrielPetrelli]] 09:09, 24 December 2008 (EST)
* Authur made Angela forget that he wanted to kill nathan this was before he made Hiro forget (I cant remeber which episode this appeared in), she only regained he memory when Linderman healed them. [[User:laughingdevilboy|laughingdevilboy]]
** I thought it was believed that he was using [[Telepathy]] then, and was altering her mind to believe falsehoods about Nathan that led her to a conclusion that Nathan needed to die. There's no evidence that she was having memories erased, but rather altered. [[User:GabrielPetrelli|GabrielPetrelli]] 09:17, 24 December 2008 (EST)
* We would need confirmation that Peter is where Arthur got it from first.  Listing things under the 'exposed' section on the various Peter pages means he has absorbed it (imo), but we don't list things under mimicked until he actually displays the ability (eg - if Arthur had used [[Molly]]'s [[clairvoyance|power]] to locate Hiro in [[Africa]], we wouldn't go and list Peter as having mimicked it at an unknown time).  If we have confirmation that Arthur got mental manipulation from Peter, it would be closer to being able to say for sure that 'make you forget' meant Future Peter was using it, but I still think it's speculative, as he could have been using another power to do so as well.  A similar scenario would be if Peter said 'I've seen the future.'  We wouldn't know if he was using [[precognition]], [[precognitive dreaming]], or [[space-time manipulation]], and so we couldn't assume one or another without confirmation. --[[User:Stevehim|Stevehim]] 09:19, 24 December 2008 (EST)
** I'd have to rewatch the episode for the wording, but under telepathy we currently list (in Arhtur's section):
:"Arthur was already an experienced user of telepathy in April 2006. He can use this ability to read thoughts, project thoughts, control a person's behavior and personality, and alter a person's memories. According to Daniel Linderman, lasting telepathic alterations, such as constant mind control or '''erasing memories''', to a person's mind leave "scars" but evolved humans possessing the ability of healing or regeneration can counter memory loss by healing the scars."
:: Does anyone recall if Linderman used the word 'erase' in that episode?  --[[User:Stevehim|Stevehim]] 09:22, 24 December 2008 (EST)
::: I'm sadly at work today, but I can try to check later if no one else can. I appreciate your points though; your example of the "I've seen the future" line is a good one. I guess it comes down to what [[telepathy]] is confirmed to be capable of? [[User:GabrielPetrelli|GabrielPetrelli]] 09:33, 24 December 2008 (EST)
:::: The episode doesn't appear to be online anymore, so I can't check, and sadly it is long gone from the DVR (since it's my roommate's).  If there was no specific mention or indication that the memories were ''erased'' as opposed to ''altered'', however, then we should credit [[Peter (exposed future)|Future Peter]] with mental manipulation, and change all comments about telepathy '''erasing''' menmories to it '''altering''' them (eg - on the [[Villains|episode page]], on the [[telepathy|telepathy page]], on [[Arthur|Arthur's page]], etc).  Do you (or anyone else) have a way to view the episode again, to see if erasure was stated or implied anywhere?  --[[User:Stevehim|Stevehim]] 09:39, 24 December 2008 (EST) 
::::: It's still on my DVR. Do you happen to know the name of that episode? [[User:GabrielPetrelli|GabrielPetrelli]] 09:54, 24 December 2008 (EST)
:::::: It was [[Villains]] -- [[User:laughingdevilboy|laughingdevilboy]] 15:05, 24 December 2008 (GMT)
::::::: Arthur kept bombarding Angela's mind with "it has to be done" messages. When Linderman spoke with Angela, she remembered that Arthur had something important to do, that it had to be done, but she couldn't quite remember what it was. That suggests to me that telepathy doesn't actually erases memories, but blocks them somehow. She knew she knew something, she just couldn't pinpoint what she knew.

::::::::: We still don't know if Peter ever used it though, or even if Arthur got it from his son.  --[[User:Stevehim|Stevehim]] 13:01, 24 December 2008 (EST)
:::::::::: He must have absorbed it from Peter. Since the Haitian still has his ability, the only other source for this power is Peter. Well, I suppose that's speculative anyway.

:::::::::::  We don't know that the Haitian is the only one with that ability <strike>(in fact, we do list one other person...Anna)</strike>.  I simply meant that Arthur may have gotten the ability from someone we have never heard of, as he presumably did with telepathy.  --[[User:Stevehim|Stevehim]] 14:49, 24 December 2008 (EST)

:::: Don't be a dick, [[User:Eclipse vs Petrelli|Eclipse vs Petrelli]].  Anyway, a few things to consider:  the writers said Arthur used "the Haitian's power", implying it was taken from the Haitian.  Since he still has his power (obviously), Arthur didn't take it from him, and we have yet to see anyone else besides the Haitian and Anna with this ability.  Since Arthur presumably has only stolen powers from a select few people, it would seem obvious that he took this power from Peter (who in turn absorbed it from the Haitian). --[[User:Ricard Desi|Ricard Desi]] ([[User talk:Ricard Desi|t]],[[Special:Contributions/Ricard Desi|c]]) 16:35, 24 December 2008 (EST)
 
**  Well Stevehim, your memory out-recalled mine. :P [[Linderman]] DOES say in [[Villains]] to [[Angela]] something along the lines of "All the times he's forced thoughts into your head, erased your memories..." I guess they can't make any of this too easy, eh? Haha. I guess i'm not sure what to do; on one hand we know Peter has mimicked [[telepathy]], and not [[mental manipulation]] as far as we know. On the other hand, "making people forget" is more often associated with MM than telepathy, but telepathy is said by Linderman to do it as well. UNLESS, Linderman was referring to MM (in which case Arthur got it from someone else, prior to Peter, which doesn't help any). Agh.

==Please re-merge Anna's ability to this page==
Why was Anna moved to [[lobotomization]] without discussion on this page? Isn't that against procedure? Don't Anna and the Haitian have the same base ability to turn people into zombies? Isn't that the same reason why we have together Niki's and Knox's ability, and why we just merged the Future Agent's ability and electric manipulation?--[[User:MiamiVolts|MiamiVolts]] ([[User_talk:MiamiVolts|talk]]) 21:21, 24 December 2008 (EST)
* The Haitian can also knock people out, block abilities, and erase memories. I suppose Anna can erase memories since she's lobotomizing them. Can she do the rest? Is there any evidence that they have the same abilities? Knox's and Niki's abilities are both enhanced forms of strength (though that's being discussed at [[talk:enhanced strength]]). The future agent's ability and Elle's ability have both been called the same thing. I don't follow the iStory religiously--has Anna's ability ever been called anything, or have any other descriptions been given? I don't think that the Haitian's ability has ever been referred to as a lobotomy. Since we ultimately don't ''know'' that they're the same ability, we shouldn't assume they are just because they're similar. If we find out more about Anna's ability, we can merge the two back. -- {{User:Ryangibsonstewart/sig}} 21:44, 24 December 2008 (EST)
** ''She'' refers to it is "effectively lobotomizing" them.  That's 1) a description, and 2) a ''non-expert'''s description.  --[[User:Ricard Desi|Ricard Desi]] ([[User talk:Ricard Desi|t]],[[Special:Contributions/Ricard Desi|c]]) 21:49, 24 December 2008 (EST)
*** The "Effectively" in my opinion makes a huge difference here. She's not saying she lobotomizes them, she's saying she effectively lobotomizes them, meaning whatever she does to them has the same effect as a lobotomy would without actually lobotomizing, no?--[[User:Riddler|Riddler]] 21:58, 24 December 2008 (EST)
****I think I understand what you mean. Suresh said himself (expert) that her ability shuts down the upper brain functions. The End. Nothing else. Now if evidence comes along down the road that she can do more with her ability then we'll change it. We report what we see and read, and nothing else. If it comes to question that this couldn't possibly be an ability then read some other comics. Other heroes have done this such as Superman. Remember that hardly anything seen in the Heroes universe hasn't been seen somewhere else. --[[User:OutbackZack|OutbackZack]] 22:12, 24 December 2008 (EST)
***** Shutting down brain functions isn't just the end, it's the basis for both the Haitian's and Anna's abilities. A person's power is a brain function, which is why Eric Doyle was able to turn on the [[laser emission]] ability and why Sylar could be incapacitated with a piece of glass to the skull. Also, Mohinder described the different brain functions Anna has been able to shut down so far (see below comment).--[[User:MiamiVolts|MiamiVolts]] ([[User_talk:MiamiVolts|talk]]) 22:32, 24 December 2008 (EST)
** In chapter 2 of [[Operation Bad Blood]], Mohinder describes the ability, saying her ability has been known to affect and disorient sensory perception, motor commands, language skills, and even conscious thought. As to knocking people out, in an alternate ending for chapter 3 of [[Operation Bad Blood]], Anna uses her ability on the Pinehearst contracted player and the player winds up falling asleep for three months. When the player finally wakes up, the player overhears that Pinehearst's doctors have deduced the player will remain vegetative with "zero upper brain function activity" and Priscilla orders euthanasia to be performed on the player. As to blocking abilities, the only confirmed people with abilities that have been around Anna in the iStory are Mohinder and Red Eye. Mohinder didn't want Anna to use her ability anymore, and Red Eye had conned her into helping him. I think, though, that if Anna were to shut him down completely, he wouldn't still be using his ability. Perhaps we'll get confirmation on that next week, but since the base ability is the same I think they should be recombined. The Future Agent's ability wasn't ever called electric manipulation and he levitates, yet we are now linking his ability with Elle's, so I think that speaks to the fact that the abilities don't have to be exactly the same as long as they perform the same function. Anna can manipulate minds and so can the Haitian, thus they both have forms of mental manipulation.--[[User:MiamiVolts|MiamiVolts]] ([[User_talk:MiamiVolts|talk]]) 22:22, 24 December 2008 (EST)
*** I don't think a "base ability" is enough to say that two people have the same ability. Hiro and Rachel Mills can both teleport. Elle and the dying patient both have abilities that center around electricity. Maury and Candice can both create illusions. Adam and Linderman can both heal. Matt and Sue Landers can both detect lies. Isaac and Angela can both predict the future. Arthur and Linda Tavara can both steal the abilities of others. Sylar and Peter both absorb the abilities of others. But none of these pairs have been confirmed to have the same power. It's very possible that Anna has the same power as the Haitian--that would make perfect sense. But until it's confirmed, we shouldn't say that they do. (We can discuss the name of Anna's ability at [[talk:lobotomization]].) Hopefully we'll find out in the last graphic novel of the year. :) -- {{User:Ryangibsonstewart/sig}} 01:04, 25 December 2008 (EST)
***I agree with RGS, While they both can perform similar things, they go about it different. The Haitian in the GNs said he scraped them completely clean and their minds were wiped, whereas in Red Eye they remembered they had guns. The only way to make people remember things after the Haitian is done with them is to Heal them or if they have Rapid Cell Regeneration. If people really want a merger I suggest grouping the two as Mental Manipulation, and creating sub pages for the haitians ability to wipe things from the mind and anna's ability to just cut off access to that part of the brain.

**** I'm still in favor of a re-merge as well, Dracomaster. Regarding your example, Dracomaster, the Kill Squad only went for their guns after Red Eye enacted his ability on them too, so it's unknown as to whether Anna's ability didn't have full effect or whether Red Eye's ability caused them to remember. In reality, we don't know how either the Haitian or Anna goes about their ability, we just know the effects of their abilities thus far.

==Rename Mental manipulation to be less 'mentally' generic and specific to the Haitians ability==
[[Mental manipulation]] is now too generic of a name to use for the [[Haitian]], because [[Anna]], and even [[Matt]] and [[Maury]] to a lesser extent, all do types of mental manipulation.  The Haitian manipulates memory to both erase memories, and to prevent specials from being able to access their ability.  '''Memory manipulation''' as a new name, is more specific to what he does, and differentiates his form of [[Mental manipulation]] from [[Anna]] and prospective future psionic specials.  <small>--[[User:HiroDynoSlayer|HiroDynoSlayer]] ([[User talk:HiroDynoSlayer|talk]]) 01/15/2009 11:27 (EST)</small>
*I don't like that name, it implies that he can create or alter memories, not only erase them, the only non-erasing memory thing he has ever done was make his father remember their happy times. I also don't get how memory manipulation links to power supression. Does he make people forget how to use their abilities? Does he block access to the memory of how to control an ability? Still a bit of an umbrella term.

** I agree, I'm not a fan of the name "memory manipulation". By definition, one would assume he can manipulate memories. All he can do is delete them. At most, he can select which memories to erase. He can't manipulate them in any other way. Additionally, it ignores one of the bigger aspects of his ability, which is the ability to block others' abilities. I'm not sure what power blocking has to do with memory manipulation. The Haitian can also knock people out by touching their heads--again, I don't know if that has anything to do with manipulating memories.<p>Yes, Anna can also manipulate mental functions. She described it as lobotomizing. So can many others, including Eric Doyle, Guillame, and Candice, to name just a few. But that doesn't mean the Haitian's ability name needs to change, just that we need to be clear on what his power allows him to do. We wouldn't think about renaming [[illusion]] just because others can cast illusions, like Maury and Matt. We wouldn't rename [[super speed]] just because others are capable of running at super speeds, like Santiago. We wouldn't rename [[space-time manipulation]] just because others can have traveled through time (like Daphne) or space (like Rachel). I don't think we need to rename the Haitian's ability just because others can manipulate mental functions. -- {{User:Ryangibsonstewart/sig}} 17:23, 15 January 2009 (EST)
*** Just to be clear, Anna never described her ability just as 'lobotomizing'. Her words in the graphic novel ''Red Eye, Part 1'' were that Ricardo discovered she could "effectively lobotomize" the people around her. That's not the same as saying she lobotomizes people as using "effectively" means that her ability can have the same effect as a lobotomy, not that that is what she does. Also, the Haitian's actions zombifying his village was to effectively lobotomize them. The only differences between the Haitian's ability and Anna is that Anna hasn't shown that she can selectively erase memories yet, or that she can block multiple abilities at once. We don't know that the Haitian's and Anna's abilities are different, but Ryan is trying to say we don't know that they are the same either. Though I would argue that they are similar enough to be grouped together like the electric agent that levitates and the others with electric manipulation.--[[User:MiamiVolts|MiamiVolts]] ([[User_talk:MiamiVolts|talk]]) 17:48, 15 January 2009 (EST)
**** Maybe my suggestion isn't the best fit; however we've grown enough varied 'mental manipulation' abilities from other characers (as you list above), that [[Mental manipulation]] is really too generic and vague of a title for the ole [[Haitian]].  Why should other folks have specific names regarding their powers, and he has an extremely generic one that can apply to 6 other people at face value? That's my concern.  I just think it's time to hone his abilities name down a bit to be more specific; because there are so many '''mental manipulators''' out there now.  Personally, I would rather see the two(Anna and Haitian) grouped together under Mental manipulation; but if they remain separate; then we should de-genericize the name of the Haitian's power.  He is no more of a mental manipulator than all of the other folks you mentioned; so he really shouldn't retain the highly generic name, IMO.  <small>--[[User:HiroDynoSlayer|HiroDynoSlayer]] ([[User talk:HiroDynoSlayer|talk]]) 01/15/2009 18:07 (EST)</small>
***** HDS, I think a historical perspective may help you understand why 'mental manipulation' was chosen in the first place--it was cause besides what the Haitian does with memory, he could also block others' abilities and we weren't (and still aren't) certain how the Haitian accomplishes that. However, we were presented with Mohinder's/Chandra's theories that all abilities have to do with the mind, so we called it mental manipulation. It was later presented to us that the Haitian could also reduce people to the state of zombie, if he so desired, but since the name 'mental manipulation' was so broad, it didn't need changing. Unless we get more information on how the Haitian performs his power blocking and memory deletion, or a name is given to us explicitly, I don't think we'll be able to accomplish choosing a narrower name.--[[User:MiamiVolts|MiamiVolts]] ([[User_talk:MiamiVolts|talk]]) 18:28, 15 January 2009 (EST)
****** I just did some Haitian research.  Maybe I've found the perfect alternative, to better harmonize all considerations.  Why then, not move upward on the canon list, and accomplish a more specific naming of the Haitian's power in one move?  Right now, it is at level 5 canon(description).  We could move up to a level 2 canon(GN) and narrow the name, by saying the Haitian has the power of '''Nullification'''.  (avoid the pitfall from the earlier discussion above that focused on a two-part name of "ability nullification", and just go with '''Nullification''', since he aptly nullifies powers and memories.)  He is attributed that term in [[Kill Squad]], and that verb can equally describe his ability 1) to nullify memories, and 2) to nullify powers.  That would accurate describe both aspects of the Haitian's ability, it would more narrowly define it, and it would make it a level 2 canon name. <small>--[[User:HiroDynoSlayer|HiroDynoSlayer]] ([[User talk:HiroDynoSlayer|talk]]) 01/15/2009 20:38 (EST)</small>
******* I think what you are referring to is the quote where they say to call in the Haitian, to call in a "nullifier"? That's still a descriptive level 5 name, though it would come from a level 2 source. I personally don't prefer one name over the other, but I'm not opposed to that change.--[[User:MiamiVolts|MiamiVolts]] ([[User_talk:MiamiVolts|talk]]) 21:30, 15 January 2009 (EST)
******** I don't see a problem with calling it "nullification". I actually quite like it. -- {{User:Ryangibsonstewart/sig}} 21:39, 15 January 2009 (EST)
********* You'll have to try harder to convince me, nullification does work for powers, but it doesn't describe well the erasing of memories, to nullify is to negate, to cancel, and that's not the same thing as erase. Plus, nullification isn't a specific enough term, even when put with mental manipulation, I think mm is more accurate, cause both powers and memories are related to mind. Mm is a broad term, but nullification is even more, cause nothing indicates what it nullifies, and there's also the time when the Haitian made Guillame remember their good times together, that doesn't go well with nullification. I think that much like AP, the nullification mention by the Kill Squad is much like SLW woman telling Santiago about his ability, she mentions the probability aspect, but not the super speed one.

********** OK, here goes me trying harder....There isn't a perfect term, or we'd have one by now.  (hehe)  Initially, [[Mental manipulation]] worked fine for the [[Haitian]], but since so many more specials have come along who also do many other varied forms of [[Mental manipulation]], then it isn't a good fit anylonger.  He has that name, because he was pretty much the first special to come along messing around inside peoples heads outside of [[Parkman]] who originally fit nice and neat in the already common [[Telepathy]] name.  '''Nullification''' can very easily apply to erasing memories.  If I said I was going to nullify the memories of your trip to Alaska last year, noone reading that would have any difficulty understanding that I removed your memories of the Alaska trip.  Plus, you can handle the Haitians singlet example of producing 'good memories' with [[Guillame]] in a note or explanative phrase...it's not like that is the main or even secondary aspect of the Haitian's nullification ability; he's done that trick once, and he nullifies powers and he nullifies memories just about every time he has appeared in the show spanning 3 seasons.  In consideration of all of the other specials who do various forms of [[Mental manipulation]], this power name should be changed to '''Nullificiation''' which is similarly accurate, much more specific and unique to the Haitian's abilities, and will catch on quickly and easily with anyone familiar with the show and the Haitian.  [[Mental manipulation]] just continues to create confusion as to why other '''mental manipulators''' aren't classified within its list.  <small>--[[User:HiroDynoSlayer|HiroDynoSlayer]] ([[User talk:HiroDynoSlayer|talk]]) 01/16/2009 12:35 (EST)</small>
*********** Why not "''mental'' nullification"? Seems better to me.--[[User:Referos|Referos]] 16:49, 3 February 2009 (EST)
***** Until we get something definitive, we should stick with mental manipulation.  Other evolved humans "mentally manipulating" people has been an issue for a few years now, and if it wasn't sufficient to alter the name in all that time, it shouldn't really be so now, imho.  Additionally, 'memory nullification' is a bit of an awkward phrase, and since we've seen people get their memories back after the Haitian uses his ability, that would just make for more awkwardness in describing (un-nullifying?)  --[[User:Stevehim|Stevehim]] 17:09, 3 February 2009 (EST)
*I don't mind "Mental Nullification", also this can account for the unnullifying effects of his ability. If you can cancel something out, then hypothetically you can restore it. Whether the Haitian actually has access to this ability or not is still unknown.

* Actually he never tried to block flight or induced radioactivity, so this argument has little evidence.

==Split?==
Hello, I was watching last night's episode (The Fifth Stage) and was wondering about when Peter was suppressing Sylar's abilities. While Peter had Sylar pinned down and was using the Haitian's abilities to help Nathan, Sylar was able to shapeshift back into Nathan. I'm a little confused, as this would require Sylar/Nathan to have access to the shapeshifting ability. This means one of a couple things - either Peter was able to use the Haitian's power to use some degree of influence or control, relinquishing control of Sylar's abilities to "Nathan" while blocking Sylar out with erasure (unlikely as this would be the domain of Matt Parkman) or that the Haitian's ability or Peter's own usage of it allows him to suppress selective powers, including, to my surprise, RCR, while permitting the use of others. This seems more likely, and I doubt we will see the Haitain's ability come in to play against someone with multiple abilities again, but I'd like to see if anybody else had some input to what exactly happened. Mental Manipulation has always been an intriguing ability. Also, on another note, I think that Peter's description of the ability when he was confronting Sylar (I specifically remember him mentioning "Memory Erasing" and "Power Blocking") would be good for the quotes section for this page, since it's the first time I can remember his ability being described full on in simple terms ever, or at least in a long while. Thanks for your time. [[User:Shallon|Shallon]] 12:40, 1 December 2009 (EST)

it describes accurately how he suppresses memories, abilities, and how he knocks people out. it permanently suppresses memories; temporarily nullifies abilities, and suppresses the consciousness mind, knocking the person out. this name describes his ability perfectly. --[[User:Tsmarg|Tsmarg]]

You said ''Peter needed to actively concentrate on healing the damaged parts for it to work however, as for some reason regeneration doesn't heal the damage automatically.'' I think the reason it doesn't heal automatically is that the body doesn't know it's been damaged so won't heal it. Also the fact that regeneration has something to do with the brain (the spot that stops it) it is more likely to have been damaged and stop the healing. Or at least that's what I think. --[[User:Mc hammark|mc_hammark]] 06:56, 29 August 2009 (EDT)
* I think you are right, it's about knowing you are hurt. When Peter thought about Nathan, his brain realized there's something wrong with it, and initiated rapid healing. It's different for Claire though, her ability evolved in the way brain automatically heals any trauma. {{User:Altes/Signature}}

You said Peter needed to actively concentrate on healing the damaged parts for it to work however, as for some reason regeneration doesn't heal the damage automatically. I think the reason it doesn't heal automatically is that the body doesn't know it's been damaged so won't heal it. Also the fact that regeneration has something to do with the brain (the spot that stops it) it is more likely to have been damaged and stop the healing. Or at least that's what I think. --mc_hammark 06:56, 29 August 2009 (EDT)

  • I think you are right, it's about knowing you are hurt. When Peter thought about Nathan, his brain realized there's something wrong with it, and initiated rapid healing. It's different for Claire though, her ability evolved in the way brain automatically heals any trauma. AltesUTC CH
  • well, physical trauma, not emotional. --mc_hammark 08:15, 29 August 2009 (EDT)
    • Memory loss is indeed a physical trauma... or rather a chemical one. AltesUTC CH
      • No no, you misinterpret me! I was joking about the fact Claire cries and gets upset so much. --mc_hammark 08:23, 29 August 2009 (EDT)
        • Ah, I get it =) AltesUTC CH
  • What does this have to do with me? My only edit to this page in the past couple months was to fix a couple spelling errors. -- RyanGibsonStewart (talk) 23:24, 29 August 2009 (EDT)

Willpower?

Is it possible that with someone who has a tremendous amount of willpower, could actually not be affected by Haitian's power manipulation? --TrueBlueBrooklynite 19:17, 25 September 2009 (EDT)

  • Matt and Arthur were able to overcome the Haitian's power, but that was rather linked to a great conscious effort. AltesUTC CH
    • Some basically if you have a great conscious level (IE: willpower of the mind), you too can meat the Haitian. :) Thanks for the insight because I wonder how you are able to defeat something like his power. --TrueBlueBrooklynite 03:42, 26 September 2009 (EDT)
      • I thought in Arthur case because he had plenty of experience and multi-abilities, that if be hard for The Haitain to block them for a long time.User:50000JH/signature

Peter

Hello, I was watching last night's episode (The Fifth Stage) and was wondering about when Peter was suppressing Sylar's abilities. While Peter had Sylar pinned down and was using the Haitian's abilities to help Nathan, Sylar was able to shapeshift back into Nathan. I'm a little confused, as this would require Sylar/Nathan to have access to the shapeshifting ability. This means one of a couple things - either Peter was able to use the Haitian's power to use some degree of influence or control, relinquishing control of Sylar's abilities to "Nathan" while blocking Sylar out with erasure (unlikely as this would be the domain of Matt Parkman) or that the Haitian's ability or Peter's own usage of it allows him to suppress selective powers, including, to my surprise, RCR, while permitting the use of others. This seems more likely, and I doubt we will see the Haitain's ability come in to play against someone with multiple abilities again, but I'd like to see if anybody else had some input to what exactly happened. Mental Manipulation has always been an intriguing ability. Also, on another note, I think that Peter's description of the ability when he was confronting Sylar (I specifically remember him mentioning "Memory Erasing" and "Power Blocking") would be good for the quotes section for this page, since it's the first time I can remember his ability being described full on in simple terms ever, or at least in a long while. Thanks for your time. Shallon 12:40, 1 December 2009 (EST)

  • Peter knew Sylar would have to shape shift back into Nathan. I think Peter let go of his "ability blocking hold" to allow him to shape shift.--Catalyst · Talk · HL 18:02, 2 December 2009 (EST)
    • A wizard did it.Gamerelite1 18:36, 2 December 2009 (EST)

Using ability at the same time

Just wondering can Haitian block someones ability while wiping their memory like if there were two people in a room could he block the one persons power while wiping the mind of the other?--Devane1835 18:54, 2 December 2009

Power name confirmation

The latest GN explicitly confirms the Haitian's ability to be 'mental manipulation'. Just updated the related template now.--MiamiVolts (talk) 00:28, 11 June 2010 (EDT)

Possible Edit

In Brother's Keeper (s04e11) Rene tells Nathan/Sylar not to come any closer, implying that if he's any closer to Nathan/Sylar, his ability will counteract Sylar's shape shifting ability. Perhaps shape shifting should be added to the list power that Rene can block? -- Lililoo

  • I think its more that he knows who Sylar really is and doesn't want to see him. Also, he wanted to talk to Peter privatly.--WarGrowlmon18 19:24, 29 March 2011 (EDT)
    • I agree with WG18. Plus, even if Rene were implying that he could block the power of shape shifting, it would be speculative and presumptuous to add it to the things Rene's power could do. -- RyanGibsonStewart (talk) 21:09, 29 March 2011 (EDT)

Arthur

Arthur Petrelli has stolen this ability from an unknown source.

Isn't it possible that he absorbed it from Peter? Peter never used this power while he had EM, but he was exposed to it several times, so he should have it even if he didn't realize. Sandubadear (talk) 15:13, 6 February 2016 (EST)
