− | Polymath has the latent psionic ability to absorb and mimic the knowledge | + | Polymath has the latent psionic ability to absorb and mimic the knowledge, skills and mundane abilities from the minds of the people in his immediate vicinity. The power is involuntary, the length of time he spends with an individual seems to increase the length of time for which he retains that knowledge with approximately one hour needed for him to retain the knowledge and abilities indefinitely. |
There seems to be some form of mental block though as although he seems to have near perfect recall of all physical skills he has learned through his powers, knowledge, mental abilities an skills seem to suffer from a rate of decay no matter how long he spends in someone's presence. But it has been shown that he is capable of extending the time he holds this knowledge through usage. For example upon picking up the ability to speak a foreign language through this power, should be continue to access this knowledge and put it into use, speaking or translating the language he will continue to hold the knowledge. Basically if he doesn't use it, he loses it. | There seems to be some form of mental block though as although he seems to have near perfect recall of all physical skills he has learned through his powers, knowledge, mental abilities an skills seem to suffer from a rate of decay no matter how long he spends in someone's presence.
