i have been looking around the different topics on this forum, and no one has mentioned the name on the little Indian child's folder. If you look at the name it says "Sanjog, Iyer" (i'm not sure about the spelling of the name, but i know the first initial along with the last name was pronounced SYLAR) could this be who sylar really is?

correction: the name was SANJOG, IYER

Paul Sylar is located on the Hero map of NBC.com

edit your first topic

The name on the file was exactly:

SANJOG, Iyer

Mohinder's sister's name was Shanti, who died at the age of 5 according to the mother, so this isn't her either.

But, Mohinder's father had the key to the desk with him in New York, which means he locked that file away before he ever met Sylar, who is 40 something, while the kid is 12 or so, so it can't be the same person. Sylar was born in Denver, not India, according to the NBC gallery of pictures.

Shandi was the name of Isaac's late sister. Not sure about the Iylar part, though. Somewhere I got the impression that Sylar's name was Paul Sylar, but that may have been pure speculation.

Thank you. I'm not going crazy.

And thank you as well to the person who corrected the name; I didn't think that the OP had it quite right. Shandi is the name of Mohinder's sister, though, although that would make her Shandi Suresh.

Last name is listed first so the boy's name is really Iyer Sanjog.

Is it definite that the kid is a boi?

Sanjog is a male given name meaning coincidence

Iyer is an indian "surname"

So, yes, you could say he was S. Iyer (but that's not Sylar, I think the writers are having a laugh - it's just a ...coincidence... )

This might also be of interest.
http://heroeswiki.com/The_key very strongly suggesting (in fact telling you) the boy has dream related powers (not Mohinder)

Patient 0 would be the first person born with an ability or alternatively first person to actively use or develop one.

Patient 0 may be the oldest living Hero.

lol

Side, how did Chandra Suresh even track down all the "heroes" on the map in the first place?

Sylar is the oldest known "super" yes.

Actually it is Brandon.

I found out who Silar is.

XD LOL

Not only was Mohinder's sister 5 when she died, but he was only 2 (according to his Mother, per their conversation) at the time.

As for Sylar being in his 40's:
That assumption is the product of speculation, not absolute fact. The actor who is/will be playing Sylar is actually only about 30 yrs old IRL. Unless TPTB decide to "explain" how he would appear at least a decade younger, all the info about Sylar's age may just end up being a very well crafted case of "bait & switch".

NOT SPECULATION ****

They gave you sylar's date of birth. Along with his full name and where he was born. Its on one of the maps mohinder finds! He is in his late 30's. Assuming the show takes place in '06

Im sorry, what hero map?

Was it ever confirmed that the Soccer Boy was ever physically in the present? He only seemed to be in the "visions" and it is curious he has the exact same outfit as was in the picture, from the file, from weeks, if not months or years, before.

having watched the epidsode twice...the boy is not indeed in real time. When we saw him in the office, Mo chased him down the stair (here it appears that the boy was indeed real) BUT as Mo opened the door he then found himself in an alley where his father got killed.

Yes, I was wondering the same thing..I'm new to the site and have not found everything yet.

I remember when NBC first posted the "Paul Sylar" birth announcment - along with the other dozens of photos - and I was SOOO excited, however, since then, I've spent some more time with the photo gallery and I realized something interesting...

SYLAR'S birth announcment was actually put up there by Mohinder... NOT his dad... much of that stuff (like many of the murder articles) was not on the NYC map, until Mohinder put it there... there is even a picture of Mohinder putting up the "sylar" altar boy picture...

http://www.nbc.com/Heroes/photos/hro_1001_055.shtml

Could it be that Mohinder was trying to figure out who Sylar is, and did his own research, but was in fact Mistaken? What if this was just the only "Sylar" birth announcement that he found? That doesn't make it correct, does it? What if Sylar really is more of a nickname, not actually Paul E. Sylar...

This is probably wrong, but it just seemed strange to me...

Any thoughts? Maybe this should be a seperate post.. oh well.

Paul E. Sylar was born June 11, 1962, in Denver, which would make him 40 something. In episode 3, Mohinder is going through Sylar's file that his father had, and is putting the information in the file (picture, newspaper clippings) up next to the map.

Shandi? What kind? Bass? I remember trying to get drunk off of Shandy when I was too young to know it was too weak to get drunk off. You have to drink about 8 litres of it to get a slight buzz.

Indian names are arranged differently than American names, so I think that the order of the name is correct. They've got a long thing on Wikipedia about Indian names, but its not very concise.

Here are the correct names and the actors that play them...



Sean Bean .. Paul Sylar (2 episodes, 2006)
Javin Reid .. Sanjog Iyer (2 episodes, 2006)

They don't have actors listed for Charlie and Ted, but they do have a few characters I haven't seen yet..

Angela Petrelli
Simon Petrelli Possibly Nathan's children ?
Weasel
Ms. Sakamoto

The boy seemed to be able to go into Mohinder's thoughts. So if that is true, than maybe he is using the minds of other people to do his biddings.

That would help explain the S. Iyer thing you have going on, which I think, is very perceptive of you!

That's the birth date of PAUL Sylar. If you'll notice, they conveniently never reveal the first name of the person they are chasing. 'Paul' Sylar is 44. But Sylar the villain is not - not if they're using Zach Quinto to play him. The only other possible explanation is that he doesn't age rapidly.

...or PAUL Sylar is another Sylar like his son, brother or father.

Mohinders exgirlfriend works for Sylar!

Sorry but Sylar is a white person and that boy was Indian. so unless Sylar's power is to change his genetics or he is a shapeshifter I'd have to throw water on the theory.

Sean Bean isn't the actor playing Sylar. IMDB is incorrect fairly often, so don't take anything they have listed as set in stone.

The real actors name is out there if you want to search for it, though.

We've been led to believe it has to do with whatever that program is on all the computers that Chandra used - but I suspect there is more to it than that.. as the program isn't going to produce names & addresses.. which the map clearly had.

I'm fairly certain that at one point, Chandra and HRG were working together (there is even a screencapture that shows this). They could have taken their work and combined it into the map.

I'm pretty sure Ms. Sakamoto was the lady that Niki & Nathan talked to in Las Vegas, who's boss is Mr. Linderman. She offered Niki the deal to erase her debt. I think that later Nathan says her name, but I'm not sure. If that's not her then I donno who it could be.
