He does not really have magic power but can take the power of others. A rioter have confirmed that the magical potential comes from their DNA. Do you think that sylas had a mutation of his magic gene, resulting in this unique ability to steal magic but not to "create" it?
sylas has the magic ability to steal magic. that is creating magic. it's a classic ability for outcast mage archetypes. similar to rogues ability in x-men to steal power.
Magic is determined by DNA?
Now I want even more that Dr. Mundo becomes a real doctor again. Let him take a sample from Evelynn and alter his own DNA with it to gain his powers (inhuman strength and regeneration).
