*Despair Klyntar (Symbiote)
*Maria Reyes (Adoptive mother)
*Jorge Martino Reyes (Adoptive father)
 
==Powers/Abilities==
*Superhuman Strength: Michael Reyes is an individual of well-above average conditioning. After bonding with his symbiote, he has acquired physical strength exceeding that of Toxin and Carnage combined, letting him easily lift in excess of 90 tons in base form. Additions to the symbiote's biomass make both the Despair symbiote and its host infinitely stronger as it grows in size and gains in bulk. It can also be strengthened by feeding off the negative emotions of others around it, causing it to grow larger and exponentially stronger.
*Superhuman Durability: The Despair symbiote's biomass can withstand high caliber bullets, great impact forces, explosions, and powerful energy blasts without sustaining significant physical injury.
*Superhuman Stamina: The Despair symbiote augments its host's musculature and stamina well beyond peak human capacity, enabling Michael to survive even in space. It is able to survive in oxygen-less areas for long periods of time such as underwater or in toxic gases, the symbiote filtering breathable air to the host.
*Regenerative Healing Factor: The Despair symbiote possesses regenerative capabilities that enable the symbiote to fully regenerate from a few cells. It's healing is rather more advanced than its predecessors, as it is capable of rapidly healing its host from would-be fatal injuries as severe as being torn in half and being decapitated, to possibly even having the majority of his body missing, though the latter is only in theory, as Michael has not been brave enough to test it.
*Genetic Memory: All symbiotes possesses the genetic memories of their ancestors, a rudimentary replica of the Klyntar Hive Mind.
*Wall-Crawling: Like its forbearers, Michael's alien costume also replicates Spider-Man’s ability to cling to walls by controlling the flux of inter-atomic attraction between molecular boundary layers.
*Telepathy: Despair, like all symbiotes, has vast yet undisclosed psychic abilities it has yet to fully grasp ONLY possible with its host. What is known is that Despair and Michael have a unique bond, able to locate one another over long distances, having been able to sense each other's presence from as far as 75 miles away, currently.
*Webbing: The symbiote can project a powerful, organic web-like substance similar to Spider-Man and Venom have. Typically using this viscous substance to swing from building to building or as a means of immobilizing someone. The webbing is exceptionally strong, much more than even the finest human athlete can break and capable of catching large pieces of debris and heavy vehicles, including helicopters.
*Fangs & Claws: While bonded to a host, the symbiote frequently manifests fanged jaws and razor-sharp claws on its fingers and occasionally toes; which can be used as weapons in combat.
*Constituent-Matter Generation: The Despair symbiote is capable of forming tendrils and tentacles of its amorphous yellow-and-black biomass, using this to strangle or impale opponents. The symbiote can also convert ingested organic materials such as flesh and blood into additional biomass, also covering and digesting insects and rodents should the symbiote lose too much biomass.
*Constituent-Matter Manipulation: The Despair symbiote possesses the ability to shapeshift its biomass into various shapes and forms. This is most-commonly utilized to create tendrils, tentacles and bladed armaments such as swords, spiked shields, spikes, bludgeons, whipfists, knives, claws and axes; Once, while experimenting, Michael once made a pair of dragon-like wings and was able to fly into the Stratosphere. The symbiote can also discharge its biomass as projectiles, though these projectiles only last for approximately 5 minutes before crumbling into dust.
*360-Degree Senses: While lacking a spider-sense, the Despair symbiote possesses a form of full-body receptory system, in that each individual cell is capable of acting as an eye, ear, mouth, nose, or tastebud.
*Thermal Vision: The Despair symbiote also grants highly detailed thermal vision, with the full color range (black to white) detailing the different temperatures of his surroundings allowing for navigation in complete darkness and for tracking via residual heat signatures.
*ESP Immunity/Resistance: The Despair symbiote is able to suppress its presence to evade Toxin's ability to detect its offspring and strike at him without triggering alarm, and is able to suppress his presence with other symbiotes, as well. As a side-effect of his Asperger's keeping his mind constantly jumping from one thought to the next, Michael is also harder to read and be detected by telepaths, as his mind would be the equivalent of a radio constantly switching stations every 5 to 10 seconds.
*Camouflage Capabilities: The symbiote is capable of mimicking the appearance of any form of clothing, camouflaging with its surroundings, and even mimicking other people.
*Klyntar Assimilation: A trait shared with all symbiotes, the Despair symbiote is capable of assimilating others into its own constituent mass in order to vastly increase its size and strength.
*Stretching and deforming: Even while bonded to a host, the Despair symbiote can grow and expand to any size as long as it has the additional bodily mass to supplement its growth. The symbiote is also able to get inside of small areas such as electric wires and the insides of cars to completely disable them.
*Empathic Empowerment: The Despair symbiote can take any form of negative emotions from the host and others within 10 feet and turn it into a fuel source both for the purpose of sustenance and a power boost
*Superhuman Speed: The Despair symbiote allows Michael to move at speeds greater than the finest human athlete, allowing him to outpace beings such as Spider-Man. The speed also applies to his reflexes, able to catch up to a bullet after it has been fired (needing a speed of 1500mph+)
*Acid Generation: The Despair Klyntar is able to generate a powerful corrosive acid capable of melting through flesh and bone in seconds, along with most metals, stone and wood. The symbiote is able to control the level of corrosiveness of the acid, allowing for it to strategically use it for delayed traps or quick getaways. The symbiote and host can either spew it from their mouth, secrete it from their skin when in costume, or coat it's webbing in said acid.
*Peak Human Durability/Peak Human Pain Intolerance: Due to the abuse he suffered, Michael has a very high tolerance for pain. As such, punches, kicks, stab wounds, broken bones, etc. do not inhibit him as much as they would a normal person.
*Parasitic Inheritance: The symbiote can copy the powers and abilities of other beings by interfacing with their genetic code. The symbiote is capable of recalling that information from previous hosts and imprinting it upon it's current wearer, granting them a host of copy and assimilated powers.
》Limitations: Any weapons made of Symbiote biomass can only hold together for five minutes after being separated from central biomass source. His Parasitic Inheritance can not assimilate powers that have to be acquired through bestowal or teachings, such as Magic, Power Cosmic, or those with multiple or split personalities such as Sentry/The Void. And even then, he cannot duplicate powers given through artificial means, such as Armor or other technology, and assimilated powers must be engrained in the DNA of the donor, plus he cannot inherit all powers, such as telekinesis, heat vision or control over certain elements, especially if he already possesses one.

*Asperger's: Michael's Asperger's affects his daily life. He is slow to pick up on social nuances and at times, his Asperger's affects his ability to effectively articulate his motives and meanings, leading to great frustration when he cannot get his point across or when people do not see his observations as he does, turn out to not be as smart as him and not understand things like him, or figure out his line of thinking, to the point that he lashes out due to anger at himself and his lack of communication skills, unintentionally scaring and possibly hurting others.
 
==Equipment==
*TBA
 
==Personality==
Varies, but normally serious, calm, optimistic, but can be playful and teasing. However, he is not without his mean streak, as when provoked sufficiently, or when confronting child abusers, murderers and pedophiles, he can become quite cruel and sadistic. Adheres to a code of honor that includes chivalry towards women, only hurting evil, undead and malicious children, and hitting a woman only when she throws the first punch, then all bets are off.
==History==
A quiet boy, Michael Valentino Reyes did not have an easy life growing up. Unknown to his parents, Michael was born with Asperger's Syndrome, and his behavioral problems and the issues related to Asperger's only appeared as defiance and attitude to his small-minded parents, especially when he proved to be very gifted intellectually by the time he was in second grade, and that's when the physical, emotional and mental abuse started, his mother berating him while his father beat him, being smart and using a sack of oranges to not leave bruises, and only to whip him on his rear. Despite this, he constantly excelled in school and did his best to stand up for others, despite him never reaching out for help. One day, he came across a strange object mostly buried, with only the top visible. Curious and in no rush to be home, he dug up the strange object and found it to be an egg, unknown to him, made by the Toxin Symbiote and left behind. Soon after unearthing it, the egg hatched, and the symbiote bonded to him. Although very shocked and scared at first, Despair was actually warm and welcoming of him, excited to have a host and more peaceful than his predecessors. Happy to have a friend, Michael welcomed the bond and headed home, experimenting with his newfound symbiote powers in his spare time. 
A few months pass, and by this time, his parents now just abused him to vent. One day, his father started coming after him with a belt, with a lock around the buckle. This time, however, Michael got sick of it, and after grabbing the belt away from his father, Michael then proceeded to transform and beat his father so badly, his father was sent into a coma and had to have three facial reconstruction surgeries. Consequently, the cops were involved, Child Services also got involved, and the abuse was made known. Luckily, Michael wasn't sent to jail, and instead was put into Foster care and then into the loving home of Maria and Jorge Reyes. Maria, being a special education teacher, realized that Michael has Asperger's, and promptly got the care he needed, although, it lasted well after graduation, due to the abuse and lack of care at an early age, the two giving him unconditional love and acceptance as their own son, even after he showed the two his powers. After graduating and winning the lottery, he paid off his adoptive parents' house, and the three moved to New York, having won a full ride scholarship and grant to Empire State University, where he graduated early with a Degree in Graphic Design and Engineering, and now moonlights as the symbiote vigilante, Weaver.
==Trivia & Quotes==
* As they have been bound to one another for five years without any separation, Michael and Despair have achieved a state of symbiosis to the point that Despair is now coursing through Michael's bloodstream, having taken Michael's genetic code and now not only produces symbiote cells, but also facsimiles of Michael's cells, only these do not have Hayflik limits or degradable telomeres. Though it would take time, these cells could eventually replace his normal cells, POSSIBLY giving Michael an extensive lifespan.
