Character History
Out of Time
From behind a column, the Raptor watches Peter's confrontation with his mother in a possible future.
Four Months Ago...
The Raptor appears to be trapped inside a burning house in Las Vegas as D.L. rescues a girl from inside. It somehow escapes to New York and later appears on a crate in a shipping yard.
Cautionary Tales
The Raptor appears behind Noah Bennet right before he is shot.
Powerless
While Mohinder is operating on Maya, he briefly changes into the Raptor. Only Molly seems notices this and displays her shock but has kept quiet about the events of that fateful day. Later on after Nathan is shot, the Raptor can be seen at the back of the panicked crowd, looking pleased.
Known Abilities
The full extent of the Raptor's powers are unknown at this time. However he has displayed rapid cell regeneration similar to Claire in "Four Months Ago..." while trapped in the burning building. Another known ability of the Raptor is Illusion, a power he might have acquired from Candice having morphed into Mohinder in "Powerless". It is also possible the Raptor posses' Claude's Invisibility having stalked both Peter and Noah Bennet without being noticed. In any case, the true extent of the Raptor's powers might never be known.
Notes
- The Raptor only appears in the original airings of the episodes and never seems to show up in traditional recordings of Heroes.
