The thing is parallel universes may well exist, and within them have their own time lines... Causality is necessary in all time lines and dimensions.

I remember Belmit posting that "10 dimensions" explanation which was rather fascinating.

If you start going on to the concept of parallel universes things get more complicated. So far no 'proof' concepts I've seen of the existance of parallel univeses was worth more than the piece of paper it was printed on

You could very well argue that every time Hiro jumps back in time, what he effectively does is make another parallel universe exist or jumps into another pre-existing one, a parallel universe in which the timeline is changed by his presense

Given their talk of space/time continuum rifts I doubt we're going to see anything about parallelism appearing in Heroes

So what do we make of those scars in their necks? Were they genetically modified? OR were they a result of genetic evolution?

There's the scars that look like a small tattoo and the bigger version on Jessica / Nikki which is also on Hiro's sword. The same sword from ancient Japan.

I'd be interested to know if all the main characters have them - it seems to only be those that have been 'captured' by this organisation that have them.

Something else interesting I spotted that maybe everyone else did as well (I can't remember how obvious it was); the combination of symbols on Hiro's sword are the same as the tattoo on Jessica's shoulder (don't recall if Nikki had it as well, but it stands to reason). Not sure where that's going yet...

Edit: Beaten!

Umm.. its from the tool thing they use on people. I thought the techno 'I hack wirelessly' lady made that clear?

I'm curious about the 'f' symbol myself. I could accept it on Nikki and co, but appearing on Hiro's ancient sword? I'm wondering. Maybe Hiro was that old warrior? *shrug*

The scars/tattoos on their shoulders are made by a marking gun which injects a radioactive isotope into their bloodstream so that 'the organisation' can track them. This was explained. How well they can track them hasn't been revealed yet.

The symbols on the sword and on Jessica's (not Nikki's) shoulder do mean something, Hiro said what but I forget... It's something to do with providence and destiny though (which is why Jess has them but not Nikki).

Speaking of which, from what has been said then I believe that Jessica (who existed) is the one with powers rather than Nikki (although I think she has her own). Jessica is a pure powerhouse of rage and power (hence the strength and body count) but she died years ago. I think she was Nikki's sister/twin and Nikki's power is being able to recall her sister/twin when needed... Discuss...

Now there's a paradox. Hiro gets the sword in 2007 left by himself in the past. It appeared in the past because Hiro in 2007 goes back in time and becomes the Samurai then leaves the sword for himself in the future. But where did it come from originally?

I don't recall anyone mentioning a key figure. Mr Linderman. The guy who owned the sword Hiro wanted, collected all the paintings by Mister Eezack, and seems to know everything about everyone.
