## Appearance

Marie is an ivory-white skinned girl with ginger eyes and black hair pulled back into a wolftailed-ponytail. She wears a black t-shirt, cuffed jeans, black ankle boots, and a white designer jacket. She also has a scar on the right side of her neck from the alien wolf bite she suffered at Oscorp.

Her superhero outfit is a brownish red bodysuit with chocolate brown accents and chest fur. She wears a wolf-shaped snout mask with yellow narrow-shaped lenses that cover her eyes and nose, but leave her mouth revealed.

Her formal wear consists of a taupe sequin-detailed party dress with a flowing skirt and metallic-colored high heels. She additionally wears two golden hoop earrings and a chain bracelet.

At the Halloween party, she dresses as a "vampire empress", complete with a red top, a black flowing skirt, a choker with a silver pendant, and knee-high heel boots.

During the summer, she wears a red front-tie shirt with ripped jean shorts, sunglasses, and flip-flops.

At Otto's funeral, she wears a belted black seam dress with thick-heeled black high heels.

## Personality

When it comes to Marie, it was all about the pack. She only kept to Gwen and Anya, who were her childhood friends. She occasionally made exceptions for Harry Osborne, who she had a crush on ever since middle school.

On the outside, Marie seemed like a prickly, fierce, and defensive girl, but deep down she has endless compassion for the innocent and helpless. She is very brave and loyal to her friends, but can be shy upon approaching new things, such as people outside of her friend group.

Nonetheless, Marie is a born leader, always finding the solution to a problem and pulling the rest of the team through until she reaches her breaking point.

## Biography

### Early Life

Marie was born in the countryside in Minnesota with her mother and father, living with the rest of her family in a simple house by the woods, where she would play often. She met Gwen and Anya for the first time when they were visiting the country on vacation. Upon hearing about New York's city life, Marie's parents made the decision to move there to better her future life, much to her dismay.

After years of living there, Marie eventually got used to city life, but never forgot her true roots, taking up studies in Bio-Tech and Ecology, in honor of her old home. As Anya and Gwen were the only two she knew in her youth, she stuck with them and made no other friends, up until middle school, where she gained her first crush on Harry Osborne.

### Origin of Spider-Man

Marie was going through her own situation when Midtown High was on their field trip to Oscorp. She had been called there by a mysterious figure who had claimed to be a friend of her father. When she got there, an experimental "wolf-man" escaped its containment chamber and bit her before it was shot to death by the security team. Marie attempted to make her way outside for help when she bumped into Peter for the first time, who was trying to reach the out-of-order bathroom after he was bitten by the radioactive spider at the time.

Afterwards, Marie began to discover, unlock, and enhance her wolf-inherited powers, becoming the superhero known as Alpha Girl. Eventually, once Spider-Man started his crime-fighting career, the two teamed up and fought evil together ever since.

### Season 1

#### Horizon High, Pt 1

Marie bumps into Peter again while delivering the vibranium for Anya's reactor. When it goes haywire, she blames Peter for damaging it on their way here when they crashed into each other. She backs off when Harry speaks in his defense, but her disdain for him remains.

However, after seeing Spider-Man in action for the first time, she decides that her best way to accept her new wolf-given powers is to become one as well. She takes on the superhero alias, "Alpha Girl", and helps Spider-Man in his fight against the Vulture. From that day forward, they work together to fight against crime.

#### Party Animals

After weeks of shenanigans between Peter, Harry, and her BFFs, Marie decides to work up the courage to confess to her crush as his welcome-back dance at Horizon. Anya and Gwen offer to help, under the condition she teaches Peter how to dance. Annoyed but determined, she agrees to it, and their lessons together sparks Peter's interest in her.

At the dance itself, after hearing Harry's announcement to stay at Osborne Academy, Marie uses her confession as a last resort move to get him to stay, but he ultimately rejects her, saying that even if he did see her more as a friend, his father would never let him date a girl of normal civilian status. This tempts Marie to reveal to him that she is Alpha Girl, but the Rhino-Man then attacks, causing her to abandon the idea in order to help Spider-Man.

#### Halloween Moon

At the Halloween party, Marie is still sore after Harry's rejection of her. She takes it out on Peter when they meet up once again, but the werewolves intercept their conversation. Together with the Hulk, they try to stop the monsters, but they have no such luck. In the end, it is Alpha Girl who defeats the gamma-infused werewolf pack leader and gets him to stand down, winning the day and earning Spider-Man's affection for her.

Though saddened by Harry's rejection, she finds a newfound love in Spider-Man, now seeing how often he has come through for her.

#### Venom

In the episodes leading up to "Venom", Marie and Peter had encountered many times in civilian form. Their interactions were often portrayed as bitter, playful, and on occasion, heartwarming. Neither knew that they were the superhero they've been fighting side-by-side with the whole time. In fact, Marie had it set in her mind that Peter was responsible for many mishaps in her life, such as Harry getting replaced at Horizon, the Stark Expo fiasco, among other minor disputes. However, she begins to instead gain feelings for Spider-Man, the one who stands up for and defends her beliefs. Unbeknownst to her, Peter is at a standstill, unable to choose between Marie, the no-nonsense tough girl who stands for loyalty, or Alpha Girl, his partner in crime-fighting and confidant.

In this episode, Marie's father, Jay, is killed by Venom during his rampage across New York. A devastated Alpha Girl calls on Spider-Man for comfort, but one look around the alley corner and the duo discover each other's secret identities. Marie is unsure how to feel anymore, as she hates Peter but loves Spider-Man. Peter sees that there is more to Alpha Girl, the one who eludes him the most, despite his admiration for her. After they take down Venom together, the two ultimately decide to start off as friends and see where the relationship goes.

#### Spider Island and Hobgoblin Arc

After the explosion that spread the spider virus, Marie also becomes infected with spider powers, but her transformation into a monster is delayed, partially protected by her alien wolf blood. When she does, at last, begin to transform, she tells Spider-Man to lock her inside Oscorp's containment chamber until Anya arrives with the cure. Spider-Man then makes the hardest decision of his life by blowing up Osborne Academy--and Alpha Girl with it--to spread the cure into a mist and save the city.

When the Hobgoblin attacks, Alpha Girl rises from the dust and emerges to help Spider-Man fight him, winning the battle and ending his evil plans. She then publicly renames herself to Wolf-Spider, in honor of her newfound spider powers, which she has retained as a result of being in close proximity to the curing mist. Afterwards, Marie and Peter decide to start a relationship as boyfriend and girlfriend, which lasts throughout Season 2.

### Season 2

#### How I Thwipped My Summer

Being able to enjoy his first summer as a normal kid, Peter adds "First Date" to his perfect summer checklist, in hopes that they can officially mark themselves as a couple this way. However, he appears sallow when he finally comes to the date, as a result of the previous failures that same summer. Moreover, the interactions are made even more awkward, the work of Anya and Gwen trying to push the relationship along.

At last, in Central Park, Marie tells Peter that he's already having his perfect summer by spending time with the people he cares about, and that she hopes that through this relationship, she can become one of them. Peter admits to feeling the same way, and they almost kiss before a phone call from Mrs. Wilson interrupts them. Marie then gives Peter a goodbye kiss on the cheek, as a "reservation for next time", and the two end their date by taking a photo together (assisted by Stan Lee, who passes by).

#### Dead Man's Party

Recently after Peter got his job as a cameraman gathering footage of himself for JJ Jameson, Marie became friends with his coworker, Eddie Brock, often meeting after school at an extracurricular class. because of Eddie's aggressive behavior, Peter shows concerns for Marie hanging out with him, which she writes off as jealousy. However, later on, after Eddie is overtaken by the V-252 symbiote, he captures Marie and uses her to threaten Peter. After succeeding in fighting him off, Peter makes it his mission to make sure Marie is nowhere near danger ever again, putting their relationship in a risky position.

#### My Own Worst Enemy

In the events leading to the episode, Marie and Peter have a healthy relationship and always find enjoyment in one another's company. There is one flaw that bothers Marie, and it's that Peter has become extremely overprotective of her, due to almost losing her in the bombing of Osborne Academy. When his mind is swapped with Otto's, he quickly adapts to the role of Marie's boyfriend, treating her like a weakling. However, it is then that Marie decides that she has had enough and breaks it off with Otto, in Peter's body.

#### Cloak and Dagger

In the next episode, Marie discovers along with Miles that Peter has switched brains with Otto. Despite this knowledge, she still upholds the breakup and refuses to get back together with Peter. She helps him get his body back, but their relationship remains shattered.

#### Brand New Day

When Peter returns to his own body, he attempts to meet Marie several times in order to save their relationship by talking with her, but nothing comes out of it. Eventually, towards the end of the episode, it rains at Horizon High and Marie forgets her umbrella. Peter, passing by, notices her and offers her his own. The two awkwardly walk back home together under the same umbrella and eventually talk their issues out after a long silence. When Peter saves Marie from a speeding car on the crosswalk, he admits that he doesn't protect her because he thinks she's weak (as Doc Ock Peter led her to believe through his words), but because he loves her. This eventually leads to their reconciliation and ends with their first kiss, in the rain in the middle of the street.

#### Goblin War Arc

In the duration of Season 2, hints are dropped that Marie is always attempting to spare or hear out Otto in his times of villainy. Eventually, the reason for this is revealed: Marie and Otto are cousins, distantly but surely related. As one of the few surviving members of his family line, Otto always shunned the Wilsons due to the treatment he received on his own end of the family, and Marie was determined to fix it, up until she realized what he had done to Peter.

The duo, aided by their friends, save the day and end the Goblin War, but at the loss of Otto. The two cousins forgive each other for their past mistakes unto one another and say their final goodbyes.

After his funeral, Peter asks Marie if they could move in together, as it had been a thought on his mind ever since they first started dating. Marie happily agrees and their new life together begins.

### Afterstory

#### Slice of Life Arc

As promised, Marie and Peter move into a small apartment complex next to Central Park together. With crime brought down to almost a standstill, they finally have time to enjoy each other's and their friends' company as the days pass by. Occasionally, they wind up in the typical troublesome situations that a couple could wind up in, but compared to everything else they've been up against, they handle it with ease.

#### Peni Parker Arc

One morning, a little girl mysteriously appears at Marie and Peter's apartment, having it set in her mind that they are her parents. Embarrassed and confused, but with no knowledge of her true origins, they agree to take care of her until they can find her real family. Eventually, they discover that she has a psychic link with another radioactive spider, which seems very attached to her. Whilst trying to discover her origins, Marie and Peter end up facing many time-traveling baddies from the future, in search of the girl and her spider friend.

Ultimately, they discover that her name is Peni Parker, future daughter of Peter and Marieanna Jay Parker. According to her, she was on the verge of death due to a tumor in her brain at birth when the radioactive spider's bite saved her life, which caused the psychic link. Still, growing up, Peni was a very frail child. In order to protect her, her parents worked together on a robot mech named "Sp//dr" that the spider could pilot to defend her. Unfortunately, upon trying to stop the machine from being stolen by King Pen and his goons, they were killed, leaving Peni to be cared for by Harry and Anya, who went by alter egos to hide their identities, using the names of Peter's own aunt and uncle, Benjamin and Maybell. Sp//dr was sent into hiding with Miles and Gwen.

When she learned the truth about her parents, Peni built a time machine with Harry in order to go back in time and warn her parents of King Pen's threat so that they could have a second chance at living together as a family. However, now that they know her true origins, the butterfly effect that was keeping her intact in this section of the timeline has been shattered, and she will now cease to exist.

As Peni falls apart, Peter pulls some last-minute brain blasts to save her and manages to contain her DNA into her spider friend, so that when the time comes, its bite will transfer Peni's DNA to Marie's body so that Peni can be reborn in the future, as she should be.

#### Shadow Pack Arc

Marie and Peter get invited on an overseas trip to Singapore with Harry and the rest of their friends, as he is on business for a super secret project that requires all of their intellects. During the trip, however, there appear to be a mysterious group following them.

At the casino party held in the middle of their stay, a group of thugs attack and kidnap Marie in the midst of the chaos. The group follows them to save her, only to discover the project they were working on all along involved Marie's werewolf powers. The company was using her wolf-inherited instincts (her "pack-sense" as they called it), to create an army of werewolves known as the Shadow Pack to take over the world by storm, with a sorceress named Amora as their alpha. Shockingly, she had Marie's werewolf powers too.

Amora takes control over Spider-Man, Spider-Girl, and Ultimate Spider Man, but Wolf-Spider, Ghost-Spider, and Harry manage to get away. After regrouping, Gwen develops a cure for the pack-sense virus, but is only able to produce two cures. Having to choose between Peter, Anya, and Miles, Marie decides that Anya and Miles should be the ones to be cured, as she believes she can get through to Peter on her own.

The trio return to fight the Shadow Pack head-on. Wolf-Spider and Amora fight one-on-one in an ultimate final battle. Amora manages to place a curse on Wolf-Spider in the midst of their fight, one that gives her the power to "mark" her pack members as she hoped to do with her army. Still, Wolf-Spider, despite losing her left arm in the battle, comes out on top as the victor. However, Spider-Man's loyalty remains with Amora even after her defeat, so Wolf-Spider lets him attack her in order to free him from the virus.

Afterwards, it is decided that Marie must remain in Singapore to heal while the rest of the group goes back. Peter is told that they cannot meet again until a year later. And so, they split up, awaiting the year to pass.

#### Rise of the Loboans Arc

A year after the Shadow Pack Arc, Marie is fully healed and is reunited with Peter and the rest of her friends. The group meet up at a summer resort in Florida to spend the rest of their summer together. After a stretch of peace, Amora's curse from a year ago begins to show through in Marie. Anya and Gwen, already marked in the duration of the year the couple were split up, reveal the secret to the others and warn them of its fatality.

Suddenly, an alien invasion strikes Earth, which turns out to be the Loboans searching for Marie. They warn her of Amora, who has survived and has returned for revenge by summoning an ancient asteroid to crash into Earth. Spider-Man, Ultimate Spider-Man, and Ghost-Spider go into space to stop the asteroid, with Marie, Harry, and Anya as their ground control.

After a few tense months, they return with success, but not without letting Amora slip away again. Marie and Peter promise to stick together throughout their entire future to face the dangers that may come and protect their loved ones from them.
