Hiro's Powers Clarification Thread

[-Maya-]

Well this is a Question i've beena wondering for a while

We all Know Hiro's powers are Spacetime manipulation Loads of comic Characters have this power but Hiro has barely shown anything he just Charges with his Sword

Possible Powers


Stop Time
Teleport
Slow Down Time for Various purposes like Increased Speed (Zoom)


Missed any?

Q) What other things could Hiro Do with these Powers? During my research on Spacetime on wikki it said Gravity had a major affect on Spacetime could Hiro Control Gravity or Electromagnetism

[Sunuvmann]

Well presumably he will one day be able to teleport objects without side-along transporting em like Future Peter did.

Basically its mastery of space and time.

He can fast forward, rewind, slow and stop and move anywhere in the 4 dimensions.

[Aeon]

Well, if this last episode was any indication, he doesn't completely stop time. It seems he slows it down to a point where time moves incredibly slow.

Quoting myself from the convo thread.
Hiro and Daphne: initially I found it strange that she could move but it seems that time wasn't completely stopped. I don't think this is because Hiro can't do it, I think he just got distracted by her. You see him approach her, moving her slipstream aside and walking up to her while she is motionless. As he is looking at her, her sliptstream disappears and she moves which suggests to me that Hiro lost focus slightly and time was able to move somewhat. It could also be a space bubble effect, where the moment Hiro does time stop, it stops completely at the place he is standing and the effect expands outwards. As he moves further from the spot where he initiated it, the effect diminishes, probably where he reaches a point that time is moving normally. Like a maximum range of effect. The ultimate form of his power then be to stop time over the entire earth, not just locally. Incidently, this might mean that the less he concetrates, the smaller the range of effect.

Also, on him and future Peter. I suspect everything that is going wrong now is because of something alluded to by future Hiro from season 1. There we know he made sure he didn't meet his past self for fear of breaking time. I think this is what future Peter violated when he imprisoned present Peter. It might have worked out had he not physically encountered himself. I also found it interesting what future Peter was doing with those threads in his apartment, which was the same thing future Hiro was doing in isaac's apartment. I think that they are able to use those threads to track similarities in the time streams, trying to predict places where they would converge. For instance, if red thread and blue thread contain a similar event, then that might present an oppurtunity where different universes may "cross" and a past event in one may effect the other. That might be how Hiro's (and Peter's) ability can affect futures in other timestreams, though the process of trying to identify crossing points is complicated since you might induce some that you didn't intend for, and it takes a lot of research and observation.Para 1 is basically how assume the mechanics of Hiro's timestop works. Para 2 is how I assume his time travel works. The latter is why I suspect he doesn't go short distances back into time to correct silly mistakes he makes.

I think where his powers will end up is timestop over the entire earth, and also being able to time stop, teleport, and travel faster than he is doing now. I think he was pretty quick currently though where he could teleport to avoid Peter's electrical discharge. What might be possible is where he can manipulate space to reform his teleporting into how it looks in the movie "Jumper". Right now his problem seems to be having to close his eyes before he can do it, though being able to stop time as well as teleport certainly makes up for the traditional drawback of reaction time that plain teleporters have.

hiro is like zoom :zaru daphne proved it

motherfucker moves time relative to himself

[-Maya-]

Yea I'm pretty much Understand the Time aspect of Hiro and Peter's powers

It's the space aspect that confuses me theoretically they should be able to manipulate the fundamental forces Electromagnetism weak Nucleur force and Strong and Gravity

[CrazyMoronX]

He could create an infinite number of "clones" of himself. Each of these clones would be a millisecond out of eachother's time. I think that's what the Shrike does.

With his space control he should be able to bend space and create worm holes. Centralized portals and such. Stab through a portal and it comes out in the target's back 100 feet away.

Similarly, he could put space warp around his body to become invincible. Anything that enters the field could just be teleported into the sun. He could also be invisible warping space around himself so that light goes around him.

There are limitless possibilities.

[Jetstorm]

Well by the end of this season I would hope he fully stops time instead of just slowing it down like now. :lmao

I think I agree with most with him stopping time relative to himself. I would love to see him do the things CMX suggested but unfortunately he isn't smart enough at the moment.

But could they Theoretically Control the 4 Fundamental Forces of the Universe


I was just watching a Star trek Generation episode with Q in He possesed the Power to control the Time space continum and he was messing with Gravity
