Morbius

Morbius is a vampire and villain (Occasional Anti-Hero) who fights against (sometimes with) Spider-Man
== History ==
Michael Morbius was born and raised in Nafplio, Greece. The son of Makarioa Morbius, Michael was raised by his single mother after his father left them. Michael experienced an isolated childhood due to his rare blood condition. Despite his disease, he was an intellectually gifted and spent his time reading books. Michael had two best friends, Emil Nikos and his sister Liza Nikos. The three of them were as close as family, but complication arose when he professed his feelings to Elizabeth and she rejected him.
While in college, Michael and Emil became brilliant scientists winning a Nobel Prize for their work in biochemistry. They attempted to cure the blood disease and developed an experimental treatment involving vampire bats and electroshocks. Its side effects turned him into a pseudo-vampire who needed to consume blood in order to survive, and gained typical vampire characteristics such as an aversion to sunlight, and the powers of flight, enhanced strength, speed, and healing (a healing factor). His overall appearance changed as well: he gained fangs, his nose flattened to appear more bat-like, and his skin became extremely pale. Additionally, the victims of his bite would turn into living vampires themselves. When he first experienced the change, he killed Emil as he could not control his blood lust. When Liza learned of what happened to her brother she swore revenge against Morbius.
Morbius traveled to the U.S by ship, and in his blood thirst slaughtered the crew. He tried to kill himself but failed and took a room at a beach house where he encountered Spider-Man who was, at the time, trying to reverse the process that had given him six arms. Morbius attacked Spider-Man, but their battle was interrupted by Dr. Connors who transformed into the Lizard.
Morbius escaped, but not before biting Connors (which partially returned him to normal). Spider-Man and Connors realized that Morbius' blood could be a cure for both of them and decided to help each other. They tracked him down and after another battle extracted some of his blood, causing Connors to remain in his human state and Spider-Man to lose his additional arms.
