History Fridge / Heroes

* Adam Monroe had the exact same power as Claire, and he lived for close to [[WhoWantsToLiveForever 400 years.]] Claire may also share this fate with him, and only two other men on the planet share her ability; Peter, her uncle, and Sylar, a man that quite literally {{Mind Rape}}d her, meaning, that unless Claire is willing to [[IncestIsRelative take the squicky option,]] the man she will be spending the rest of her eternity with a man who defines NightmareFuel.

* I hated the portrayal of Sylar until about halfway through his big arc in the first season of ''Series/{{Heroes}}'', complaining that the character was "inconsistent." Over the midseason break it dawned on me that he was constantly tailoring and retooling his projected personality to suit his environment. --{{Tropers/Tabby}}

* Season 1 of Heroes had the nameless character of "Claude" the invisible man, also known as the nameless Doctor?
** Actually, his full name was Claude Raines. If you like the Classic Universal Monsters or Rocky Horror Picture Show, you'll know that "Claude Raines was the Invisible Man."

* In ''Series/{{Heroes}}'', Adam Monroe had the exact same power as Claire, and he lived for close to [[WhoWantsToLiveForever 400 years.]] Claire may also share this fate with him, and only two other men on the planet share her ability; Peter, her uncle, and Sylar, a man that quite literally {{Mind Rape}}d her, meaning, that unless Claire is willing to [[IncestIsRelative take the squicky option,]] the man she will be spending the rest of her eternity with a man who defines NightmareFuel.

*** For that matter, her earrings themselves. You'd expect her power would close them up any time she takes them out (piercings are intentional creation of a scar, and her power apparently doesn't allow for scarring), but apparently not (or else she just stabs herself whenever she takes them out or wants to change pairs - not inconceivable, considering she threw herself off things, stuck her hand in a garbage disposal, and chopped off her toe just to see if it'd grow back).

*** This isn't unusual for Heroes characters. Hiro is a CanonImmigrant from a silver age comic setting, and most of his troubles stem from not realizing he's in a CrapsackUniverse. Adam is from classical mythology where the trickster god can never be held permanently. Parkman is from a psychic detective show where the aforementioned psychic always mysteriously manages to keep his job no matter how much he has to lie to cover up his methods (which doesn't work out that well in the Heroes film noir setting). And so on.

*** Two things: first, not all women have hymens that need to be broken; the so-called 'normal hymen' only covers part of the vaginal opening, and easily stretches out of the way without breaking. Other 'kinds' of hymen may cover even less. Second: If all else fails, ear-piercing? Pierced ears would heal, but we leave a stud in so that the flesh heals around it and leaves a hole. Just saying.

*** Because a man and a women can't be together without vaginal penetration and being with someone who doesn't have a penis means there's no chance of vaginal penetration occurring.

*** Fridge brilliance - That might explain why she ended up preferring girls...

** Claire heals - which has to mean she will be a virgin every single time she has sex ... ouch.

** Not necessarily. Peter isn't immortal unless he borrows her power (he can only use one at a time) and the end of the final episode implied that Sylar is going down the road {{Angel}} went after his self-pity phase.

** Not in the end. Peter isn't immortal unless he borrows her power (he can only use one at a time) and the end of the final episode implied that Sylar is going down the road {{Angel}} went after his self-pity phase.
