==History==
===Early Life===
Peter was born around the year 1995 in Forest Hills, New York. Following the death of his parents, government agents Richard and Mary Parker, Peter was raised by his Aunt May and Uncle Ben, growing up in Queens, New York. As a child, Peter became friends with Mary Jane Watson and Harry Osborn, forming a friendship that would last into his adulthood.
At 15 years old, while attending a science demonstration, Peter was bitten by a radiation-infused spider, which altered his physiology and granted him several abilities, such as enhanced strength, agility, speed, as well as a "spider-sense" that alerted him to any danger. At some point after this, Peter allowed a mugger to run past him without using his abilities to stop, deciding it was "not [his] problem". The criminal would go on to shoot and kill Uncle Ben. Knowing that he could have prevented Ben's death had he stopped the mugger, Peter blamed himself for the incident.
=== Becoming Spider-Man ===
As a result, Peter became the masked vigilante Spider-Man, embracing his uncle's mantra of "With great power comes great responsibility" and defended New York City from crime. To aid his mission, Peter used his chemistry knowledge to create a synthetic web, and wrist-mounted "web shooters", to allow him to swing through the city and incapacitate criminals.
A week after Uncle Ben's death, Peter was greeted by his classmate Harry Osborn, whom asked how he was, and the two quickly became friends. He also befriended Mary Jane Watson during his time in Midtown. At some point, Peter and Harry were preparing to show a project for the science fair, but it was destroyed when Flash Thompson broke Harry's laptop. The two decided to break into school to get Peter's USB to get a copy of the project, but Harry's father, Norman Osborn, arrived and explained the recent passing of Harry's mother. 
Over the following eight years, Peter protected New York under his costumed alias. During this time, he had several encounters with super-criminals Electro, Vulture, Rhino, and Scorpion. He encountered Herman Schultz (Shocker) early into his career, describing his first encounter with Shocker as when "[Spider-Man] was young and stupid". Peter left several of his backpacks webbed to walls around the city at various points throughout his war on crime. 
Peter also established a long standing rivalry with Wilson Fisk, who ruled New York crime and, unbeknownst to Peter, a selection of the police force, as "The Kingpin". At some point, Peter learned the Kingpin's true identity, and the two had at least one physical encounter during the first eight years of Peter's career. Peter also developed an alliance with NYPD captain Yuri Watanabe; however, she remained unaware of his secret identity. He also had some sort of meeting with Matthew Murdock, although the exact details of this are unknown.
In his personal life, Peter's Aunt May joined the organization F.E.A.S.T. run by Martin Li, whom Peter knew well by eight years into his career. He also entered into a relationship with Mary Jane, an aspiring reporter. While the relationship had ended by the time Parker entered his eighth year of crime fighting, Mary Jane was still on good terms with him, and was aware of his dual life as Spider-Man.
During his time broken up with Mary Jane, he had brief romance with the thief Black Cat/Felicia Hardy. Though she did go straight and give up crime, they broke things off when Peter learned that she fell back into her old habits.
===Marvel's Spider-Man===
Peter has since departed his job as a photographer at the Daily Bugle and works as a research assistant at Dr. Otto Octavius' lab, barely making ends meet.
With the NYPD finally having enough evidence to serve a warrant for Wilson Fisk's arrest, Peter makes his way to Fisk Tower to help the police raid the building. Fighting his way through Fisk's men, Spider-Man manages to take Fisk down and end his reign as the Kingpin, sending him to prison.
In his personal life, Peter is late for work helping Dr. Octavius demonstrate his advanced prosthetic limbs for his government financiers, who are left concerned by the demonstration's failure. Meanwhile, a new gang emerges from the shadows onto the streets of New York, calling themselves the Inner Demons. The Demons begin seizing Fisk's illicit resources and assets.
Mary Jane investigates an auction of Fisk's goods which is then attacked by Demons. With Spider-Man, she learns that the Demons are seeking something called Devil's Breath. Spider-Man is able to stop a Demon attack with the aid of Officer Jefferson Davis. Davis is lauded for his heroism at a re-election event for Mayor Norman Osborn attended by Peter, Mary Jane, and Officer Davis' wife and son, Rio and Miles Morales. Osborn receives a call threatening to punish the city for his sins, and flees the event. The Demons then attack, killing Davis and many attendees. Peter witnesses their leader, Martin Li, transforming into an inverted form dubbed Mister Negative, but he is knocked unconscious before he can intervene. Following the attack, Osborn hires Silver Sable and her PMC, Sable International, to supplant the police, and Peter befriends Miles over their loss, and convinces him to volunteer at F.E.A.S.T.
Peter and Otto continue their research, but Osborn withdraws government funding in an attempt to force Otto to work for Oscorp. Spider-Man's search for Li uncovers that Devil's Breath is a lethal and virulent bioweapon inadvertently created by Oscorp while developing a cure for genetic diseases at Osborn's behest. Li locates and steals the only sample of Devil's Breath and threatens to release it unless Osborn surrenders to him. Li is foiled by Mary Jane and Spider-Man, Devil's Breath is secured, and Li is incarcerated at the nearby maximum-security prison, The Raft.
Meanwhile, Otto obsesses over creating enhanced limbs that exceed the limitations of the human body, creating four mechanical tentacles operated from his back and mentally controlled via neural interface. He reveals to Peter that he is suffering from a neuromuscular disease that will inevitably immobilize him, and that enhanced limbs will allow him to continue his work when his body fails. Peter warns Otto that the interface could impact his mind and personality. Otto continues its use in secret, overcome with anger at Osborn; the pair were once friends who founded the mega-corporation Oscorp before Otto left due to Osborn's unethical experiments.
Spider-Man is drawn to the Raft by a prison break. He learns that some of his greatest enemies—Li, Electro, Vulture, Rhino, and Scorpion—have escaped. They subdue Spider-Man and present him to Otto, now calling himself Doctor Octopus. Otto warns the beaten Spider-Man to not interfere before retaking the Devil's Breath and releasing it in Times Square, causing a mass outbreak; Peter's Aunt May is among those infected. New York descends into chaos while Doctor Octopus and his subordinates attack Osborn's properties. Osborn declares martial law and blames Spider-Man for the incident, branding him a fugitive.
Spider-Man gradually takes back the city, defeating Electro, Vulture, Rhino, and Scorpion. Meanwhile, Mary Jane infiltrates Osborn's penthouse and learns that Devil's Breath was developed to cure Osborn's terminally ill son Harry—Peter and Mary Jane's best friend. As a child, Li was a test subject for the cure, gaining his abilities in an explosion of energy that also killed his parents and caused both his hatred for Osborn and the split between Osborn and Otto. She also learns that an antidote exists and Li has taken it. Spider-Man defeats Li and recovers the antidote, but Doctor Octopus arrives, brutalizes Spider-Man, and escapes with both it and Osborn.
Wounded, Peter builds himself an armored suit and confronts Doctor Octopus atop Oscorp Tower, liberating Osborn. Otto reveals that he has known Peter's secret identity, and the two battle. Spider-Man recovers the antidote and defeats Doctor Octopus; his artificial limbs are removed and he is sent to the Raft. Peter is faced with using the limited antidote to save a near-death May or allowing doctors to use it as a chemical base to develop enough cure for everyone; he chooses to save everyone. Before dying, May reveals that she knows he is Spider-Man and that she is proud of him.
Three months later, New York has returned to normal and Peter and Mary Jane rekindle their relationship. Miles, who was earlier bitten by an Oscorp genetically modified spider that escaped from Osborn's personal lab, reveals to Peter that he has gained spider-like powers, prompting Peter to reveal his own secret.
===The City That Never Sleeps===
In The City That Never Sleeps, Spider-Man must deal with the Maggia, who want to return after Kingpin was arrested and seeing that the citizens of New York don't take them seriously. In The Heist, Spider-Man confronts Black Cat, who has returned to her life of crime and is working with the Maggia crime boss Hammerhead. During the confrontation, Spider-Man learns that Black Cat is working for Hammerhead to steal drives in exchange for her son, which Peter believes is his. Spider-Man teams up with Black Cat to help her save her son, but eventually learns that Felicia was manipulating him the entire time. Black Cat reveals that she's been double crossing Hammerhead, and leaves Spider-Man in the vault after taking the last data drive. Spider-Man then learns that Hammerhead rigged Black Cat's hideout to explode as revenge, and sees her apparent death. Peter mourns her death with Mary Jane, but admits to being relieved that he won't be father yet.
In Turf Wars, Spider-Man assists Yuri and the NYPD in stopping Hammerhead and his gang, but is too late to stop Hammerhead from killing Yuri's men at his base. Yuri wants to get revenge on Hammerhead due to his actions and Spider-Man not being able to stop the Maggia quickly. Spider-Man then goes onto learn that Hammerhead is collecting Sable International weapon caches, and is using Silver Sable's tech to fight against the other dons and NYPD. After stopping Hammerhead from killing the other dons, Spider-Man battles the crime lord at an construction site. Though he defeated Hammerhead, Yuri appeared and shot him dead, leaving to her being put on administrative leave. Unbeknownst to the NYPD, his men managed to resurrect Hammerhead while he was being transported to the morgue.
In Silver Lining, Silver Sable returns to New York to collect her tech from Hammerhead and the Maggia, and forms an alliance with Spider-Man to stop him. Hammerhead nearly killed Spider-Man during a confrontation, but Peter was saved by Felicia, whom thanked him for his previous actions in The Heist. Spider-Man then tracked down Hammerhead and worked with Silver Sable to defeat him, thus ending the Maggia threat in New York City. During the three DLCs, Spider-Man speaks with Miles on training him to be his protégé, and works on stopping Screwball by doing her challenges.
===Marvel's Spider-Man: Miles Morales===
A year after the events of The City of Never Sleeps, Peter and Miles watch Rhino to be escorted to the Raft, but the supervillain manages to escape. Peter and Miles fight Rhino until the former is incapacitated, leaving Miles to unlock his bio-electricity and defeat the supervillain. After defeating Rhino and letting Simon Krieger take him in, Peter and Miles meet at a nearby rooftop. Peter tells Miles that he's leaving New York to travel to Symkaria with MJ to work as her freelance photographer, and has Morales take the "Spider-Man oath" to protect New York City. Though Peter is away, he gives Miles a Spider-Man suit and training stations for Miles to improve his skills.
When Peter learned of the bridge explosion in New York, he called Miles and told him if he needed him, he will return from a flight. Peter returns in the epilogue of the game, after Miles stopped the Tinkerer and Roxxon Energy, and tells his protégé that he is proud of him. Miles also learns that Peter and Mary Jane have moved into Aunt May's home in Queens, and Peter decided to take time to get a new job and move in while Miles protected Harlem.
=== Marvel's Spider-Man 2 ===
Peter eventually took up teaching science as a new career. After substituting for a while, he got a job at Brooklyn Visions Academy, where Miles was also a student at.
On his first day at the Academy, Peter arrived late to teaching a physics lesson. Upon arriving, he started lecturing about surface tension when Miles asked to leave to use the bathroom. Peter, knowing it was to go and fight crime as Spider-Man allow him to. However, Miles returned, insisting Peter come help him. Relenting, Peter abandoned the lesson to help Miles fight Sandman, commenting he would be fired from teaching for doing so. The pair then dealt with Sandman, who was wreaking havoc in New York, leaving it entirely covered in sand. After handling the Sandman attack, Peter returned to the school, where Principal Evans fired him for disappearing and leaving the students unsupervised.
Peter returned home, where MJ arrived to store copies of her book on Symkaria that poorly solved before he started to clean up and found an old photo of him standing next to a hole in the wall he punched and two drawn eyes, eventually finding it in his old room. As MJ was about to find out which two prisoners from the Raft would be transferred, they came across Harry, whom they hadn't seen since he left for his "trip".
Peter and Harry then rode two bikes to catch up while MJ headed to work. Harry revealed he was now well thanks to an exosuit he was wearing that Dr. Curt Connors created and took Peter back into Midtown High, reminiscing how they had done so years before. While sitting on the bleachers, Harry showed him the object in Peter's old locker was a pass to a company called the Emily-May Foundation and revealed he wanted Peter to join it as a co-founder. After Harry gives him a tour of the company, and lets Norman Osborn know about the offer, he accepts.
Sometime later, Peter and Miles went to overlook the transfer of the two prisoners, Scorpion and Mister Negative, the latter's presence angering Miles before Peter told his protégé to focus. Suddenly, while en route to Ravencroft, the Hunters attacked the convoy, and abducted the prisoners while the Spider-Men saved nearby bystanders from harm.
That night, Peter joins MJ and Harry for a visit to the fair ar Coney Island. He introduces Miles and Ganke to Harry and then spends time alone with MJ on the ferris wheel, discussing her report for the Daily Bugle. However, Hunters interrupt them as they arrive to kidnap Tombstone, who was now working in go-kart maintenance. Peter, as Spider-Man, intervenes but prioritizes saving civilians in danger on a damaged rollercoaster, allowing the Hunters to escape with Tombstone. However, Peter struggles to rescue the civilians until Harry arrived, revealing the exosuit granted him powerful tentacles that he used to help Peter save them. coming out of him, which he later said was part of an exosuit that cured him.
In shock, Peter swings Harry to safety and reveals his identity to him. The pair decide to head to the foundation to research Harry’s exosuit to determine what else it can do. By morning, Norman discovers them and the damage they have done from their experimenting. Norman also informs them that Dr. Connors is mysteriously absent.
Taking leave, Peter learns of Tombstone's whereabouts and goes to rescue him. During the process, he is assisted by Harry, manifesting the exosuit as a hybrid of a Spider-Man suit and tactical armor. Despite Harry's callowness in crimefighting, they manage to rescue Tombstone before congratulating themselves on the rooftops. Harry's exosuit reacts when they attempt a fist-bump, manifesting a spider symbol, but they simply brush it off as Harry wanting to be like Spider-Man.
MJ discovers Connors has been kidnapped by Kraven and informs Peter of this. Peter and Harry arrive at Kraven's base at an abandoned zoo, but they are too late to stop Kraven from turning Connors back into the Lizard. As the Lizard escapes, Kraven fatally stabs Peter in the abdomen. MJ and Harry grieve for Peter, but suddenly, Harry's exosuit transfers itself to Peter, healing him and transforming itself into the Black Suit. A more aggressive Peter fends off Kraven's minions, buying time for Harry and MJ retreat to the EMF.
Peter returns to the EMF to discover that without the exosuit, Harry's illness is slowly returning. He tries to return the exosuit, only to find it is unwilling to leave its new host. Their only hope is to restore Connors to normal so he can remove the exosuit, though Kraven has the serum.
To retrieve the Lizard serum, Peter infiltrates a party Kraven and his minions are having, using the Black Suit to disguise himself as a waiter. After succeeding in retrieving the serum, he and Harry use it to synthesize an antiserum to cure Connors, though the EMF is damaged in the process due to the Hunters tracking Peter down. With Miles's help, Peter tracks down the Lizard and eventually restores Connors to normal. Connors, recognizing the Black Suit, explains it is in fact an alien symbiote and shows him the meteorite it came from. The symbiote reacts by evolving into the Symbiote Suit, further corrupting Peter. Connors insists on destroying the symbiote, but Peter claims it for himself, insisting he needs it to become a better Spider-Man.
Peter retreats back to Aunt May's house to rest, ignoring MJ's warnings on the property damage during his fight with the Lizard. As he sleeps, Kraven's Hunters arrive, and the symbiote puppeteers his body to fight them off. Concerned for Peter's safety, MJ attempts to wake Peter up with Miles's help, but the symbiote pursues her, only to flee while Kraven's forces kidnap Miles.
On the following day, Peter woke up feeling disoriented, unsure of what had happened to the symbiote during the night. He was still struggling with the influence of the symbiote's corruption, which caused him to show rejection towards Harry and MJ when they read his report in the Daily Bugle. Later on, he ran into Norman, who expressed his gratitude towards Peter for being Harry's friend and even mentioned that he considered him like a son. However, Harry overheard their conversation and felt angry towards Peter due to his father's remarks. Rio Morales contacted Peter to help find Miles, who had gone missing.
On his way to locate Miles, Martin Li, who had been freed earlier by Miles, intercepted Peter and told him where he could find him. When he eventually found Miles, Peter confronted Kraven, who had been hired to hunt Miles down. During their altercation, Kraven instilled more hatred towards Peter, causing the symbiote to influence him even more. Just as Peter was about to kill Kraven, Miles intervened, and confronted him in an attempt to prevent him from killing the hunter. Using the sounds of a bell, Miles managed to reason with Peter, and helped him regain control of his actions. Peter then proceeded to tear the symbiote from his suit, freeing himself from its influence. Miles captured the symbiote in a small container, ensuring that it would no longer pose a threat to anyone else.
After he left Kraven's hideout, Peter regretted his actions under the symbiote's influence. On Connors' order, Peter brought the symbiote back to Oscorp to destroy it. However, upon entering, Peter discovered that a sick, drug addled Harry was already there. Harry tried to attack him as he was about to destroy the symbiote that was going to keep him alive. The symbiote broke free from its container, sending Peter into a nearby wall, then rebonded with Harry Osborn, transforming him into a full-blown cannibalistic monster known as Venom. Harry knocked out Peter, rampaged through Oscorp, devastated hunters, and killed Kraven.
A day later following Venom's rampage in New York, Peter, who escaped the rubble inside Oscorp, began searching for Harry. He found Harry's Oscorp badge left behind while he was escaping and used it as a way to search for him by using Oscorp's antenna. Peter was able to locate where Harry was, as he found Harry's EMF badge that was stuck to some symbiote tendrils. He came to check if Harry was still here. However, he realized that Venom already kidnapped and infected a citizen, who attacked him. Peter was able to knock and seperate the symbiotes off these innocent citizens. Realizing that Harry, in control of Venom, started using his symbiotes to infecting people, Peter called Miles for help and they recreated Kraven's bell and created sonic grenades that can stun the symbiotes.
After successfully experimented sonic grenade, the two arrived at the subway station to rescue Rio and Ganke. They later saw Venom converting citizens to symbiote, which the latter found out and briefly attacked them and flee away. Peter and Miles then entered inside the subway station, using sonic grenades attached to a spawned nest and the two defended the sonic grenade integrity while it was synchronizing. After that, the spawned symbiote nest was destroyed and the two successfully rescued Rio and Ganke.
After that, Peter continued to find Harry while Miles was getting his mom and his roommate back to his home safely. Peter called MJ and warned her about Harry getting the symbiote back, but unfortunately, Venom visited and pretended to be Harry and held her captive. This forced Peter to return to his home and while swinging back to home, Connors phoned and warned him about some remnants of the Venom symbiote still inside him and asked him to come for check, but Peter refused.
Peter then returned to home and Harry, in control of Venom, tried to persuade him to join him. However when he refused and insulted the symbiote by calling it a "thing", Harry transformed back into Venom and he attached Scream symbiote to MJ and flee away for his further plans. The Scream symbiote exploited her host's repress frustrations to fight Peter until MJ resisted and regained control over Scream symbiote and removed the symbiote, killing it in process. MJ, after removing the Scream symbiote, told Peter that while she was becoming Scream, she got into symbiote hivemind and saw a vision of a "rock", implying the meteorite that brought Venom here. Peter then got a call from Miles that the symbiote invasion continued to expand into City Hall and there were some trapped people inside. Before he went to City Hall, Peter gave MJ a kiss.
Peter and Miles arrived at City Hall, where the place was now infested by Venom's symbiote army. The two battled the symbiote army and found the emergency exit at City Hall. As Peter was opening the exit, unfortunately, Ganke called and told the Spider-Men before that the symbiote tendrils broke a window inside and already transformed trapped people into a horde of symbiotes, which attacked Peter and Miles and threw Peter, who previously had remnants of Venom symbiote inside him, to take over him once more into the aggressive form. Martin Li eventually arrived and used his negative powers to create a shield that temporary hold the symbiotes at bay. Miles and Li noticed that Li's negative power accidentally triggered a response from the remaining symbiote inside Peter that caused him to be more painful. Miles and Li decided to team up and they went into Peter's head to find the main source of his pain. They reached to the symbiote core, where it represent "the true source" of his pain, and they combined their power together, with Li sacrificed his power to destroy the core for good.
Miles Morales and the now depowered Martin Li went back to the reality and saw Peter remain unconscious, while the symbiotes have already surrounded them. Suddenly, Peter woke up and a new white symbiote dubbed Anti-Venom emerged from his body, which is a result of the fusion between Mister Negative's Lightforce and the remnants of Venom symbiote. Peter used the Anti-Venom symbiote to take on the symbiote hordes, and because of Li's powers, the suit is non-sentient and free from the hivemind, and can vaporize the symbiotes by its touch.
Peter then thanked Li and Miles for saving him, in return, Li thanked the Spider-Men for reminding him of the person he was prior to his crusade for vengeance, echoing May's philosophy of "When you help someone, you help everyone." Now at peace with himself for the first time in years, Li sets off on a new path, promising to the Spider-Men to "set things right, your way this time." Seeing Li turn himself into the authorities, Peter praised Miles for his maturity and reforming his greatest enemy, stating that he couldn't say he had done that.
Peter arrived at Connors' secret lab where Venom found and merged the last part of the meteorite as a mean to enhancing his power and infecting New York further. Peter and Miles splited up in order to locate where the meteorite is. While Miles was going to clear the nest, Peter arrived at Harlem subway station after Miles told him that he got into the symbiote hivemind and saw the vision of the meteorite that was possibly located in here. However, when Peter entered, he didn't see any "rock" and Venom ambushed him, pretending to be Harry and showed Peter the vision of his future dark turn, plus showing the real location of meteorite, which was located on his lair. However, Miles arrived and stopped Venom from covering Peter with the symbiote. Peter and Miles escaped and Peter said to call MJ and said he knows where the meteorite is.
Peter, Miles and MJ devised a plan to destroy the meteorite by using the EMF particle accelerator and they arrived to a park that where the meteorite is placed in. Peter distracted Venom while Miles and MJ stole the meteorite from his lair and they were going to EMF to destroy it. Venom then attacked Peter and they fell into Midtown High School, where Venom turned the school that Peter previously studied into his own battlefield and said to Peter that "this is where they become best friends, and it's where they become brothers". Venom gave opportunity and convince Peter to join him, but Peter refused, leaving Venom greatly upset. However, as long as they fight, Venom soon realized that the meteorite has been stolen, he angried and defeated Peter and used his wings to brought Peter to find the meteorite. Venom arrived to EMF, where he also met Miles, who hold him long enough and MJ used particle accelerator to destroying the meteorite. As a result, Venom began weaker and Peter used his Anti-Venom symbiote to purged Venom off Harry.
=== Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse ===
Peter was eventually welcomed to Miguel O'Hara's Spider-Society and became a member; he was later seen roaming about the base. When LYLA presented all of the kidnapped supervillains to Miles Morales, he was witnessing Francis Byte and a version of Norman Osborn, and she referred to the two villains as video game people, which confused Peter, who questioned if she was referring to him.
==Personality==
Peter lives his whole life by the creed "With great power, there must also come great responsibility." As such, he always tries using his powers for the greater good, sacrificing his mental and physical health, his personal life and relationships for the citizens of New York and the world at large. Possessing high moral values frequently puts him at odd against other super-powered beings, who are intent on using their gifts for malevolent and selfish reasons as opposed to Spider-Man's heroic and selfless nature.
An extremely prominent trait of Spider-Man is his sense of humor which he uses as a defense mechanism to overcome emotional scenarios in his life or when he's in dangerous situations. Over the years, this has tended to agitate his opponents and cause them to be beside themselves, which therefore makes them more susceptible to attack and oblivious to their impeding demise; it is debatable whether Spider-Man's greatest offensive weapon is his wisecracking nature.
His rapier wit and fast talking quipping also allows him to diffuse the tension present in his numerous missions as well as maintain the calmness of citizens, instead of escalating their panic. His humor is not limited to his opponents, but also extends to his allies, to the point that he can either annoy them amusingly or just borderline frustrate them, such as by his recurring "Spider-Cop" joke he keeps bringing up with Yuri Watanabe, which often prompts her to hang up on him during their many conversations. He is, however, accused of being "insolent" by the Kingpin, and his wit could be more cutting to those whom he personally dislikes.
However, despite his upbeat attitude in the face of adversity, Peter never adopts an arrogant or callous attitude, and is exceedingly compassionate to those whom he loves as well as those who deserve it. He caringly plans a spontaneous party at F.E.A.S.T in dedication to his Aunt May's selfless work and tells her that he wished there were more people like her in the world, as a result of her generous and altruistic character. Furthermore, Peter is perfectly prepared to put Mary Jane's best interests first, by constantly worrying about her safety, perhaps to a fault, which ultimately led to their breakup six month prior. He is exceptionally sympathetic towards the loss of Miles Morales' father, Officer Davis, reminiscent of the loss of his own Uncle Ben and feeling immense guilt for being unable to prevent the former's unfortunate death, thereby encouraging the youth to join F.E.A.S.T in the hopes of empowering him. Peter saw himself in the young Miles, and they soon developed a brotherly bond with one another, which only got stronger after Miles acquired Spider powers of his own. Peter then took him under his wing and trained him to in the ways of being Spider-Man. As a mentor, Peter is patient and nurturing with his teachings. He understands that Miles is bound to make mistakes just like he did, and gently encourages him to find his own path as a Spider-Man. The two share a lighthearted banter together even on the battlefield, akin to siblings.
Peter is also an exceptionally loyal and faithful individual, especially to those close to him. The most supreme display of his allegiance and loyalty are directed to the people of New York, as he devotes the entire essence of his being for their particular safety and welfare, caring unconditionally for them all. However, not all of them see eye to eye with him on his vigilantism, a prime example of this being J. Jonah Jameson, who is infamous for publicly defaming, slandering and smearing Spider-Man's reputation. 
However, when bonded with the Venom symbiote, Peter had his personality altered. He became arrogant, aggressive, vindictive, cruel, cold and even more sarcastic. Peter still made jokes, but they were aggressive and sadistic. This personality shift was Peter’s subconscious and hidden desires coming out to the forefront thanks to the Symbiote, as it corresponded to his desire to “be a better Spider-Man”, but the end result was a hero who was efficient at his work yet had his morals getting twisted every second he was bonded to the alien. With the hardships and perceived failures he kept facing in his life, Peter built up a large amount of self loathing within himself and wanted to attain even greater power to become a better hero. The Venom symbiote presented itself as a remedy to his problems, but he found it overwhelmingly addictive. Despite becoming more brutal whilst bonded to the symbiote, Peter still refrained from killing for the most part, showing that he still held on to his humanity and had some degree of resistance to the Symbiote’s influence. However, during his battle with Kraven, Peter was ready to murder him due to his hatred of the villain and heinous actions, and would have went through with it had it not been for Miles’ intervention. 
With Miles' help, Peter removed the symbiote and was very ashamed of his behavior. He truly knew then how too much power can corrupt, and sought to make amends with the people he disregarded and degraded, such as MJ and Rio Morales. 
When Harry re-bonded with Venom and started terrorising New York, Peter fell into a low point emotionally, wracked with guilt on how Harry’s turn to the dark side is his own fault. When Miles and Martin Li helped Peter unlock his Anti-Venom suit, Peter went back to his old cheery self, even more determined to stop Venom and rid the city of the Symbiote invasion, now that he has the power to go toe-to-toe with Venom. Despite stopping the invasion and destroying the symbiotes, Peter still felt some guilt over not being able to completely save Harry. However, he learned the true meaning of balance and still decided to keep moving forward and take a break from being Spider-Man, and focus on his life as Peter Parker. He then entrusted Miles to keep watch over the city in his stead, confident that his protégé is more than ready to keep watch over the city as his own Spider-Man.
==Powers and Abilities==
===Powers===
 
Spider Physiology: After getting bitten by a radiation-infused spider, Peter Parker attained the proportionate powers and capabilities of a spider. The bite initiated a complex and sophisticated body-wide metamorphosis deriving from the mutagenic enzymes of the radiation-inculcated spider, altering his physiology and consequently granting him superhuman abilities and newfound heightened senses. In subsequent years, it seems that Peter has grown more accustomed to his powers with a higher level of comprehension and effective utilization than prior years.
*Superhuman Strength: Following the spider bite, Peter acquired considerable superhuman strength, superior to that of even the brawniest human, thereby enabling him to accomplish spectacular feats such as terminating car chases in numerous occasions by casually throwing the rampaging automobile up a few feet off the ground and then catching it almost effortlessly after dispatching the hostiles operating it. His strength was also more than sufficient enough to throw him head-on against the formidable and overwhelming burliness of Wilson Fisk. Notably, as seen in the mission The Main Event, Spider-Man's raw strength empowers him to successfully lift a portion of concrete roof to save the civilians trapped underneath. Other impressive feats of his strength include, pulling back the entire structure of a collapsing construction crane; taking down average criminals with one punch; easily yanking multiple turrets off their support pillars and hurling them around with only a single strand of web attached; prying open tightly shut, metal doors with ease and exchanging blows with the indomitable Dr Octopus. Although Spider-Man's bio states that he can lift up to 10 tons, he has demonstrated to be competent enough to press lift way more than that, as he was able to snag the rear of a falling semi-trailer truck and slowly pull it back up onto the road platform with his webbing before it could collapse onto the train track underneath.
*Superhuman Endurance: Due to the massively augmented density and solidity of his musculature fibers, tissues and his skeleton, Peter's anatomy is significantly more resilient and durable against most types of injury compared to a normal human. As a result, this has allowed him to withstand vigorous amounts of impact from the powerful blasts of electric shock generated and released from Herman Schultz's specialized gauntlets to blows from the combined might of the Sinister Six. Spider-Man's toughened flesh has also permitted him to endure collisions that would otherwise pulverize an average human, like the smashing impact from a construction crane hook which sent him soaring, briefly incapacitated before fully regaining conscious quickly only seconds later.
*Superhuman Speed: Spider-Man's physique is highly adapted to the rigors of high speed running. His cardiovascular and respiratory systems are many more times efficient than those of an average healthy human being as he metabolizes a higher content of caloric energy. In fact, the chemical processes of his musculature are so highly advanced that his body does not generate fatigue poisons like lactic acid to accumulate in his muscle tissues so they can keep contracting more efficiently for 34 hours on end without hindrance. Therefore, Spider-Man has demonstrated to be more than quick enough to catch up to accelerating automobiles and bullets on foot (although his preference is inclined to web slinging), run up tall buildings in a matter of seconds, and move faster than the naked eye can follow, even appearing, disappearing and reappearing as a blur. Spider-Man was also able to easily outrun Rhino, charging at full speed.
**Superhuman Agility: Spider-Man's agility, balance and bodily coordination are all enhanced to high levels way beyond the peak of human potential. His bones, muscles and joints are twice as elastic than the average human which, combined with his great strength, allows him to jump great distances and heights and perform graceful acrobatic maneuvers with no difficulty whatsoever.
**Superhuman Reflexes: Thanks to his inhuman agility and speed, Peter's reflexes are similarly augmented 50 times greater than the average human. He has shown to be able to react to projectiles such as bullets and missiles with ease and dodge attacks from superhuman individuals such as Scorpion.
*Superhuman Equilibrium: Spider-Man possesses a rapidly magnified sense of physiological balance, refining his equipoise and stability. He is able to achieve a state of balance on virtually any point, no matter how small or unstable with incredible ease and masterful adjustment.
*Superhuman Stamina: Spider-Man's physiology allows him to go for days without food or sleep. He can exert himself to his peak performance for up to a day, before the fatigue toxins in his muscles begin to mar and impair him.
*Regenerative Healing Factor: Spider-Man's enhanced physiology has a rapid regenerative factor. Spider-Man regenerated his eyesight upon getting his powers. When his body is breached, his outer layer forms a wound epidermis that releases growth factors to stimulate nearby cells. His body is able to reprogram fibroblasts, which are crucial to revitalization, to become "blastema", a ball of stem cells, which are in turn capable of dividing and differentiating to give regeneration to skin, bones, blood vessels, etc. Spider-Man's healing capabilities are accelerated thanks in large to his incredible control of his oncogenes and tumor suppressor genes. As a result, his mutate genes can speed up the activity of his oncogenes to accelerate the regeneration process after temporarily deactivating his tumor suppressor genes, permitting him to rapidly heal most wounds in a couple of hours. After suffering multiple scars and bruises to his face and being impaled by Doctor Octopus, Peter was able to rapidly heal throughout the following the following days. He was also able to quickly recover fourteen broken bones while simultaneously fighting crime and recover from it next day. He has even healed from crippling injuries such as being slashed open by the Kingpin using a katana, although he did require medical attention, and healed a broken leg from Tombstone, He has also healed from being ejected with the Scorpion's neurotoxin. He also possesses an extraordinary immune system, as he is able to tolerate Scorpion's newly enhanced hallucinogenic neurotoxin for an extraordinary amount of time before it does any permanent damage. However, for some unknown reason in the second game, he wasn't able to heal his stab wound inflicted by Kraven.
*Wall-Crawling: Spider-Man is capable of walking on walls and hanging from ceilings with the help of micro-/nano-scale hierarchical fibrils (setae) situated all across his epidermis. As this unique fibrillar feature of his dermis allows him to develop an intimate contact with the substrate that he is walking on or clinging to, it is expected that the setae exchange significant numbers of electric charges with the contacted substrate via the contact electrification (CE) phenomenon. More importantly, it is the CE-driven electrostatic attractions which dictate the strength of Spider-Man's adhesion. These CE-driven electrostatic attractions are mentally controlled by his mutagenic altered cerebellum, which affects his engrams and therefore initiates the capacity of manipulating the flux of his CE-driven electrostatic attractions between various molecular boundary levels. As an advantageous result, in the intimate contact of seta-substrate, eliminating CE-generated electrostatic forces by air ionization is physically impractical, simply because air ions cannot penetrate the conscious controlled contact interface in order to dissipate surface charges, or in simpler terms it is nearly impossible to prevent Spider-Man from adhering to surfaces. These setae, however, are more densely concentrated in his fingers and feet which therefore permit the prevalence of scaling a structure with his feet or hands effortlessly, even sprinting across New York's skyscrapers.
*Spider-Sense: Attributed as an extrasensory ability, the spider-sense refers to a precognitive ability to sense immediate danger, a kind of "sixth sense" ascribed to Spider-Man. The "spider-sense" is represented as a tingling sensation emanating from the base of Spider-Man's skull whilst simultaneously apprising him to personal danger in proportion to the severity of that danger. It thus implies some kind of intelligence, capable of parsing Spider-Man's surroundings, identifying and critically evaluating a potential threat at seemingly pre- or sub-conscious level operation and furnishing this information instantaneously to his conscious mind. However, both the temporal and spatial dimensions of his spider-sense are ambiguous, as it is represented alternately as functioning at close range and apparently within "normal" time, aiding Spider-Man to escape machine guns in combat, or avoid a police ambush and as working across immense distances. Provided with his extraordinary speed and wall-crawling, the spider-sense permits Spider-Man to evade all manner of spontaneous dangers by an evidently instinctual exercise of some uncanny reflex. In Don't Touch the Art, after Spider-Man recently subdued a couple of Inner Demons, he sensed someone coming his way, and without hesitating, immediatly went to hide. The connection between the spider-sense and his superhuman reflexes is such that his spider-sense can even trigger a reaction when Spider-Man is temporarily stunned, such as by how he is briefly immobilized by a construction crane hook in the mission Straw Meet Camel, only to promptly regain conscious and instinctively steady himself. Later his Spider-Sense helped him locate Mary Jane being held at gunpoint by Charles Standish. Furthermore, his spider-sense outwardly possesses a directional component and can guide him to or away from concealed or disguised danger and enemies. This is demonstrated in And the Award Goes to... by the spontaneous tingling of his spider-sense in a dense crowd, allowing him to anticipate Mister Negative's transformation, by slowly shifting his position to the direction of the event. Despite being an invaluable asset to his powers, he is still susceptible to attack, should he let himself be distracted or not have sufficient time to elude the attack. 
**Radio Frequency Detection: While still in high school, Spider-Man's aptitude in science helped him to discover a way to track his villains using a device of his own design called the Spider-Tracer. A Spider-Tracer is a tiny electronic device that is programmed to emit a radio signal. His spider-sense is capable of picking up frequencies emitted by the Spider-Tracer and let it guide him to his object of interest. It will buzz louder the closer he gets to the tracer.
* Enhanced Vision: Spider-Man's vision has been amplified to superhuman levels (rectified by his regenerative healing capabilities), leading him to relinquish the use of his spectacles a long time ago. His field of vision has been augmented with impeccable clarity and infallible detail enabling him to effectively exploit the full extent of his web shooters to be a proficient marksman as well as notice things other people fail to observe.
Anti-Venom Symbiote Physiology: Even after getting rid of the Venom Symbiote, there were traces of it within his cells. After Martin Li infused his lightforce energy with the remnants of the Symbiote that were inside him, Peter was granted a new suit dubbed Anti-Venom, possessing the same powers as before with none of the drawbacks. Unlike his previous suit, Anti-Vemom is not sentient and Peter is in full control of the Symbiote, as he claims to not “hear any of the voices”. One special trait of Anti-Venom is that Peter can vaporize symbiotes by simply touching them.
===Former Powers===
Symbiote Physiology: After nearly dying at the hands of Kraven, the Symbiote that was once attached to Harry, bonded with Peter in the form of a suit, restoring him back to optimal health and enhancing his abilities all the while giving him new ones. The suit, being an alien, is very much alive and it responds to Peter’s thoughts at the cost of amplifying his aggression and sadism to a terrifying degree.
===Abilities===
*Genius-Level Intellect: For the most part of his life, Peter has always been an overzealous enthusiast of biology, chemistry, physics, mathematics, computer science and engineering with his expertise viewed as virtually peerless by many. Indeed, his intelligence allowed him to be submitted as a lab scientist into Oscorp, one of the most highly sought famous scientifically advanced corporations in the world with their arrays of scientific pioneering always ahead of the curve. Dr. Octavius, who is a tremendous supergenius himself, has confidently remarked that Peter possesses an impressive intellect, his originality exceeding for graduates his age. Mary Jane has also stated that he is a brilliant scientist when Peter expresses a desire to become a chef. Furthermore, Peter possesses a Bachelor of Science Degree in Biophysics, with his thesis of neurotechnology earning him a job as a research assistant with Otto at Octavius Industries. He is also well-read and is capable of understanding extremely intricate and convoluted ideas, which no other graduate can possibly comprehend and is shown to be highly erudite and knowledgeable in multiple fields of the most foremost sciences such as nanotechnology, quantum theory and mechanics, cybernetics, robotics, forensics, genetics, prosthetics, applied science, neuroscience and technology. Although Peter possesses unparalleled and almost unrivaled intellect, he is surpassed by the extremely brilliant and astute Otto Octavius, his boss. Peter admits that during his first application interview with Otto, he felt as if he were incompetent and out of his league.
*Expert Inventor/Engineer: Ever since Spider-Man appeared to the public, he has been an extremely talented and prolific engineer. At the mere age of 15, he was able to design and create his first web shooters and Spider-Tracers, which were able to interface with his arachnid-like powers. His natural flair for applied science also enabled him to create various devices to help him in his crusade against crime, such as the "Vulture Jammer", which assisted him in defeating the Vulture during their first ever battle. Over the course of Marvel's Spider-Man, Peter invents various types of advanced spider-like gadgets to aid him in his operations, such as the Spider-Drone, Impact Web (with Otto's assistance), Electric Web, and numerous more. He is also able to design and produce multiple contingency suits with finesse and ease, each perpetuating its own unique ability.
*Hacking Intuition: Spider-Man is able to easily hack into Kingpin's server in mere moments, even mocking the lack of upgrades present in their security, notwithstanding the latter confidently and arrogantly proclaiming that it isn't possible. He is even able to hack into Oscorp and Norman Osborn's personal computer.
*Marksmanship: In conjunctive utilization with his enhanced vision, Spider-Man becomes a formidable and consummate marksman with meticulous precision and keen marking. Therefore, this has granted him a complete proficient mastery over his web shooters, validating him to prevent the stupendous collapse of the construction crane in Straw Meet Camel, by webbing up its individual sections, in mid-air, whilst simultaneously implementing this all in rapid succession.
*Skilled Investigator: Spider-Man is a highly skilled detective. He is able to investigate and discover the Devil's Breath despite it being a closely-guarded secret. He is even able to uncover evidence about Martin Li being the leader of the terrorist organization the Inner Demons.
*Skilled Photographer: Though he did not receive any formal education in photography, Peter has shown to be an adept photographer during his fleeting career with the Daily Bugle. He was able to produce a sustainable living for some years as an ace photographer, serving for the Daily Bugle's front line. Thanks to his superhuman capabilities, he can take pictures of crime scenes or objects of interest at any angle imaginable.
*Leadership Skills: Spider-Man has shown himself to be an exceptional and competent leader with eight years of heroism to back it up. He is able to inspire loyalty in Mary Jane and Miles Morales, who unquestioningly follow his orders during the New York crisis.
*Master Combatant/Martial artist: Spider-Man is an extremely accomplished and versatile martial artist, due to numerous years of extensive experience and brawling. Without receiving any standard training, he has secured his position as one of the most dangerous superhuman combatants in the world. Spider-Man incorporates a variety of martial art techniques such as capoeira, a dance-like fighting style that's perfectly represented in his fast, acrobatic moves that have him leaping all around his enemies before striking them. Peter also uses Parkour movements, a physical discipline in which practitioners to aim move quickly and efficiently using their bodies and the environment. Parkour can be thought of as the flight response where as a martial art could be considered a fight response. His whole fighting style is based around the form of martial arts with the hero staying low and mobile while utilizing the momentum of frequent spins to come crashing down on to his opponents. Spider-Man also owes a portion of his moves to professional wrestling as well, specifically to lucha libre, most likely deriving from his early days as a professional wrestler during his first public display of power (albeit still under a disguise). Several specific moves have also been noted in his fights, such as dropsaults, scissor takedowns, reverse frankensteiners, and the famous hurricanrana. It is part of his lucha libre combat style, that allows him to take down enemies even those who are several times his size while dispatching several enemies at once with high flying moves.
*Master Acrobat: Spider-Man's phenomenal agility makes him a very excellent athlete, as he can perform complicated gymnastic and acrobatic maneuvers that any human athlete can't do.
*Indomitable Will: Peter appears to possess an unbreakable and incorruptible spirit. During his eight years venturing as Spider-Man, he has continuously wrestled to balance his personal life and superhero duties, always emerging triumphant after defeat and horrendous loss (such as the death of his parents and his uncle). Traumatized by his uncle's death, he established a vow of responsibility that has taken him down a righteous and heroic road of humanitarian service despite the overwhelming trouble and calamity that it brought upon him. In addition, due to his selfless and heroic nature, he is able to overcome strong emotional attachments for the greater good by how he selflessly opts to have the Devil's Breath cure manufactured and distributed out wide and save more lives rather than use it on his dying Aunt May, the most important parental figure in his life. This is also shown in how Peter is able to resist Mister Negative's attempts to corrupt him. Similarly, while being corrupted by the symbiote which later called itself Venom, Peter eventually resisted its influence and, with Miles' assistance, removing it from his system.
==Paraphernalia==
===Equipment===
Peter has designed the majority of his own equipment for his time as Spider-Man, having built a wide array of web-influenced gadgets to aid him in combat against different opponents in different situations. He has access to eight such gadgets: 
*Web Shooter:
*Impact Web:
*Spider-Drone:
*Electric Web:
*Web Bomb:
*Trip Mine:
*Concussive Blast:
*Suspension Matrix:
==Quotes==
===Marvel's Spider-Man and Miles Morales===
===Marvel's Spider-Man 2===
==Trivia==
*His media is NYCWallCrawler, and has 15.3 million fans.
*A running gag through the first game is on his cooking skills, notably messing up dumplings and almost burning down MJ's apartment. This almost happens again when he leaves the curry he was making for MJ unattended to talk with her, though it was delicious regardless according to her. As of the sequel, he is seen making perfectly made wheat cakes at the end of the game, implying that he's gotten better overtime.
*Spider-Man's voice actor, Yuri Lowenthal, has voiced other versions of the character, most notably in Marvel Ultimate Alliance 3: The Black Order, and the upcoming Marvel Rivals.
*Peter mentions at the beginning of the game that he has three chest hairs. While seemingly a jest at first, if one looks closely after equipping the "Undies" suit, you can see the three strands of hair on his pecks.
*This is one of few incarnation of Peter Parker that has bonded and donned the Anti-Venom suit for the first time.
**His Anti-Venom suit resembled the Synthetic Symbiote suit from Marvel's Spider-Man animated series and Future Foundation suit.
