I, too, was going to say Count Petofi.

Anyone else with "powers" was a witch or warlock or something (vampire, phoenix) and had a reason to have powers.  Petofi was apparently a mortal human being, but he somehow possessed awesome powers.

SPOILERS...

He may have been mortal at one time, like Angelique, but by the time he came to Collinsport, IMO, he hadn't been mortal for quite some time.  He had powers independent of his famous "hand" -- for example, the talents he bestowed on Charles Delaware Tate, and the charm on Quentin's portrait -- and IIRC, no trace of him was found after he supposedly perished...just those funny blue glasses.  He may have legitimately lost them in his haste to escape, or he could have left them behind as a red herring, but I think that if the series had continued, the character would have returned in a later storyline.

Cheers,

Linda

I think it is abnormal that no one asks Adam how he got all those scars.... or maybe they have and I just missed it.  [hdscrt]

My guess is they just took it for granted that he ran his motorcycle into a barbed wire fence!

My question would be why Dr. Lang made him look like that? Did he put the face together first and wanted to practise his stitchwork?  It isn't patchwork, that would make SENSE.
