Talk:Sam Conlon

Sam's ability

It's time to talk about Sam's ability! :) I am very open to this one. It could be accelerated probability (the lines he sees seem similar the lines Santiago sees), probability computation (not likely, but he does talk about knowing the probability of success of the escape), intuitive aptitude (not likely, but he does seem to innately understand complex systems and situations), or it could be a completely new ability (this seems the most likely to me). Thoughts? -- RyanGibsonStewart (talk) 18:18, 2 December 2015 (EST)

• The closest ability I can think of right now is enhanced synesthesia, but this sounds like it is a different ability (Sam doesn't visualize another sense but the connection/patterns between things)... As for Santiago's and Edward's ability, there is no aspect of enhanced speed or electricity and probability doesn't seem the underlying base of the ability to me right now. I'm thinking "correlation vision" for a descriptive ability name currently...--MiamiVolts (talk) 19:17, 2 December 2015 (EST)
  • Yeah, that could work. Honestly, anything is better than "Sam's ability". Any other suggestions out there? -- RyanGibsonStewart (talk) 23:39, 2 December 2015 (EST)
    • I assumed it was probability computation seeing as he required actual information in order to determine the most likely course of action; for example he had Konig retrieve him the maximum security plans in order for him to work out the codes and what not. --Truther H (talk) 02:01, 3 December 2015 (EST)
