Toxin

The symbiote that would be known as Toxin was the spawn of the Carnage Symbiote. Upon being born, Toxin bonded with police officer Patrick Mulligan and the two attempted to be heroes until Pat's sudden death.After being removed from Mulligan, Toxin was forced to bond with Eddie Brock and fight Venom. The symbiote later momentarily combined itself with other two symbiotes in order to fight Chthon.
Toxin survived this encounter but was weakened enough that the arrival of Knull had little effect on the symbiote. It was then bonded to a teenage boy named Bren Waters who saved him.
==Story==
The first offspring of the Carnage symbiote. Cletus, disgusted at the notion of giving birth, forcibly bonded the infant symbiote, later named "Toxin" by Venom, to police officer Patrick Mulligan, who attempted to use it as a force of good, inspired by Spider-Man.
Despite initial success, Patrick was murdered by the demon Blackheart, who cloned the symbiote and bonded them to clones of X-23. Agent Venom was blackmailed by the Crime Master into stealing the Toxin symbiote from Blackheart, although the Venom symbiote took control of Flash and tried to kill its progeny. Jack O'Lantern extracted the symbiote and took it to the Crime Master, who later forcibly bonded it to Eddie Brock. The symbiote initially took total control of Eddie's body and tried to kill Venom, but was ignited by Flash. It survived, still bonded to Eddie, and they agreed to work together until they could kill Venom before trying to kill each other. However, the Toxin symbiote would then later apparently be killed during a fight with Chthon.
This would not be the end of the Toxin symbiote though, as unbeknownst to all, it barely survived it's battle with Chthon. Severely weakened to the point that even Knull didn't deem it worth the effort the restore, it would eventually bond itself to teenager Bren Waters in order to survive. The symbiote and Bren would later join forces with Andi and Flash Thompson and Andi Benton to face off against Carnage, and later with the current host of the Venom symbiote, Dylan Brock, against the Noname organization.
==Powers==
Toxin possesses the powers of its parent, but to a greater extent. In addition, it seems to have a much stronger resistance to sonic waves and intense heat than Carnage. When bonded to Patrick Mulligan, it had a slim and streamlined appearance closely resembling Spider-Man, complete with a red and dark blue or black coloration. When upset or aggressive, it becomes much larger and he gets even stronger, growing vicious fangs and long, curving claws. When bonded to Eddie Brock, Toxin initially appeared all-red and massive, but after recovering from being burnt, it became red and black. Following Eddie being recruited by the FBI, the Toxin symbiote has taken on the appearance of black and red body armor, apparently in emulation of Agent Venom. After bonding to Bren Waters, it took on a mixture of Patrick and Eddie's forms.
