(Though I think it is still more likely that they kept him around because there was still so much to be found out about his powers).In the Heroes timeline, the symbol appeared together with Adam - it was his chosen symbol for his Kensei identity. Maybe he _really_ is "Adam" for the purpose of superpowered heroes. We don't know yet how many heroes actually exist, but is it possible that they could all have the same ancestor? (Very fruitful then, this Adam guy <img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f642.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=":)" title="Smile    :)"  data-smilie="1"data-shortname=":)" /> )What if it can be used to _mutate_? Maybe Adam found a way to use his regeneration power to mutate other people. (Which cuts down the required scope of his libido <img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f642.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=":)" title="Smile    :)"  data-smilie="1"data-shortname=":)" /> )Maybe the strange sequence in the DNA that looks like the "Godsend" symbol is actually Adams manipulation? Maybe I am getting a bit to hung up on my idea that Adam might be the original Hero, but I really like the theory. <img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f642.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=":)" title="Smile    :)"  data-smilie="1"data-shortname=":)" />Maybe the superheroes are like a Cancer on the scale of humanity instead of a single human. The Hero Trait starts off as a single cell that is slightly mutated. The cell multiplies itself (Adams first children), and begins to spread through the world (adam and his children wandering the world). Instead of damaging the surrounding cells/organs, this Cancer transforms them (maybe some cancers can do that? I don't think that's normal, though), which is the next step. Now, the cancer is everywhere in the system, and the only cure (the virus) is like a chemo therapy - yes, it affects the cancer most, but the rest of the body doesn't take well to it, either. And if you're unlucky enough, it kills you (the Ashanti virus affects all humans)...</blockquote>
