Sylar

A villain in the popular TV series, "Heroes." He was told by the professor researching human evolution that he had gained no abilities through his genetic mutation. This professor then talked at length about the "evolutionary imperative" to survive. This drove Sylar mad with the need to prove his worth and specialness.

Sylar's genetic mutation actually endowed him with intuitive aptitude, the ability to recognize and manipulate patterns within complex systems. He uses this to recognize the powers of other evolved humans and replicate them, but only after cutting out their brains to perform some unknown process.

Sylar seized the evolutionary imperative. Shouldn't you?

Sylar

Sylar is the main villian of season 1 in Heroes on the network NBC.

Sylar is a serial killer who sometimes removes the brains of his victims, primarily those he believes to be evolved humans. Chandra Suresh identified him as Patient Zero in his research. Before adopting the name Sylar, he was known as Gabriel Gray.

"I know you don't understand me. But I want to tell you why I'm helping you. It's that delicious power. You see, when I get my ability back, I'm gonna kill you...and your sister. And I'm gonna take it all. And if I don't get my ability back, it's not a total loss. Maya's learning quickly. She's a shiny new toy, and she's all mine."

- Sylar (to Alejandro)

"That sound in your heart, what is it?"

"Murder."

- Dale, Sylar

"Give me that damn list! So I can... sink my teeth in..."

- Sylar

"I wasn't begging for my life. I was offering you yours. You are your father's son. So determined, you didn't even notice I stopped the IV. But don't worry, you might actually do some good before you die. Starting with that list."

-Sylar (to Mohinder Suresh)

Syllabeer

Syllabeer is by far the greediest businessman in the world. He excels at selling junk and loads of crap for prizes astronomically larger than they should be. Common people refer him to as "Sillybeer" and the "The bear that lacks all kind of moral".

Guildie to Syllabeer:"Hey Silly, borrow me a gem will you?"

Syllabeer:"Everything has a price."

Sylar'd

To get the top of one's head removed in a way similar to when Sylar from the show "Heroes" removes his victims' brains by cutting off the top of their heads.

"You see that Heroes episode last night?"
"Yeah, man! Isaac totally got Sylar'd!"

Jimmy was looking the other way when the saw blade jumped off its track. Unfortuneately, Jimmy was Sylar'd.

Sylar

Sylar is a charactor in the T.V. show hereos. There's already a good description of him on UD, so I'm just adding an alternate description.

Sylar, used as a verb.

When you want to look inside of someone's head and see what the hell they were thinking. Especially stupid people who won't or can't "get it," and you just wanna see why they can't. You wanna fix 'em.

My brother's drinking again.

Again?!?! He knows how it destroys his life, what the hell is he thinking.

I dunno. I wanna Sylar around in his head for a few minutes and see if I can't fix him.
