Peter Parker (Earth-120703)

* Spider-Man
* Civilian

**Spider-Man**, also known by his real name, **Peter Benjamin Parker**, is the Spider-Man from the Marc Webb Film Series.

## Personality

Peter Parker had all the qualities of a 17-year old teenage crime fighter; shy, smart, broody, aggressive, sarcastic, troubled, awkward, and intelligent. Peter never truly got over his parents leaving him and then dying in an unfortunate plane crash, he possesses a scientific curiosity and is considered something of a geek at his school which made him a target for the local bully, Flash Thompson. This incarnation of Peter put more emphasis on the angst that a teenager would have. Peter had a tendency to use humour as a defensive mechanic, a trait that was only amplified when he became Spider-Man using sarcasm and wittiness before and during his fight with criminals.

However behind this naturally upbeat demeanou Peter also possesses a tragic and lonely side, brought on by the immense huilt lf the death of the people he held close, most specifically his Uncle Ben who's killer Peter met and actually let walk free simply to spite the owner of a convenience store. Another contributing factor for his guilt was his crush, Gwen Stacey's father dying at the hands of The Lizard while trying to save Spider-Man and with his dying breath he asks that Peter keep his daughter of his vigilante activities which he fails to honour and this causes PTSD and even hallucinations. What proved to be a final straw for Peter was the woman he loved, Gwen Stacy died in his arms during a fight with The Green Goblin and for a few months he hung up being Spider-Man but eventually returned when the city was under threat.

Peter also had a vengeful side to him, specifically before he truly become Spider-Man he used his newfound powers to search for the criminal who killed his Uncle Ben and presumably planned to return the favour however it quickly evolved into something more righteous. This was also shown when he humiliated the bully Flash in front of his entire basketball team. After getting his newfound powers form Oscorp, Peter had difficulty controlling them and was unintentionally destructive which was shown when he destroyed his bathroom, a football goal, a basketball net and the front door. He also took his time to torment a car thief that he thought could've killed his uncle, and even intended to kill him at one point even though he didn't need to.

Peter was also something of a poor liar, every night he would return home with different scars and would tell a ridiculous story to cover it up. Over the course of the first and second film Peter eventually became obsessed over finding out what happened to his parents and if a third was ever released it would have been about him getting over Gwen's death.

In *Spider-Man: No Way Home,* although he retained most of his overall qualities, Peter was shown to be immensly depressed over his failure to save Gwen, even hinting that he resorted to killing criminals in his bitterness and anger. He also showed to be self-loathing, to the point of calling himself lamer than his other counterparts. However, this changed when Raimiverse Peter repeatedly told him that he was amazing and not to have a low opinion on himself. After saving MJ, Peter finally overcame his depression due to redeeming himself for not being able to save Gwen. When he left back to his universe, he was notably more happy and content with himself.

## History

### Early Life

Peter Parker was born to Richard Parker and Mary Parker. Peter grew up with them up until he was a child. One day, Peter was playing hide-and-seek when he discovered his house had been broken into. Immediately after the breaking in, he was left by his parents to live with his aunt and uncle, Ben and May. His parents were forced to leave after the break-in for an unknown reason. The couple later died in a plane crash, though Peter came to assume he had been abandoned by them.

Peter grew up with the mystery of his parents' disappearance, becoming an outcast outside of home. While in elementary school, Peter met Harry Osborn, and the two became best friends until Harry was sent to boarding school. Peter again felt loneliness all throughout high school. During high school, he was often bullied by Flash Thompson and he caught the eye of fellow classmate and crush, Gwen Stacy.

### Becoming Spider-Man

One day after school, Peter finds his father's briefcase in his house basement, which reveals to him the plane crash that killed his parents, and that his father had worked for Oscorp with Dr. Curt Connors in the field of cross-species genetics. He goes to Oscorp searching for Connors, and makes his way in through security by pretending to be a member of the high-school interns. Gwen, who is the guide of the group and assistant to Connors, recognizes Peter very quickly. She allows Peter to stay, so long as he stays out of trouble. Trying to find out more about his father's work, Peter sneaks into a lab where genetically altered spiders are being held. One manages to stay on his neck, and bites him as he leaves. Peter takes a train home, and falls asleep. It is on this train that Peter's extraordinary spider-abilities begin to show. While in the train, a man puts a bottle of beer on Peter's head. This causes Peter to wake up and jolt to the roof of the train. Interestingly, Peter remains stuck to the roof. The passengers are shocked at what they are witnessing. Peter, shocked as well, returns to ground. Due to his jump, drops of beer stain a woman's cloting. Attempting to comfort her, Peter accidentally rips the woman's shirt off with his sticky hands. This infuriates a group of thugs, who then try to beat down Peter, but he is able to overpower and counter their attacks using his newfound ability to perceive glimpses of incoming danger.

Peter runs home, frightened by his new spider-like abilities. In his room, he attempts to research spider bite symptoms, but is unable to find the spider that bit him, as the spider in question is a native to Oscorp. The young man decides to visit Dr. Connors at his home, and reveals to him that he the son of Richard Parker. After a short discussion, Peter gives Connors the equation to complete a limb regeneration formula, which he learned from studying his father's notes.

The next day, Peter humiliates his bully Flash in the school gym, but gets in trouble when he accidentally breaks the backboard of the basketball hoop. Uncle Ben meets with the school principal, and angrily scolds Peter, telling him that he had to switch his work shift in order to be there. Ben orders Peter to pick up Aunt May later that night. When Ben leaves, Peter asks Gwen out, and to his surprise, she says yes. Out of excitement, Peter goes to an abandoned shed after school, and uses his spider powers to swing from chains hanging from the ceiling. Later than night, Peter meets with Dr. Connors at Oscorp, helping to complete the regeneration formula, but ignoring an important call from Uncle Ben. When Peter returns home, he is reprimanded by Ben, who is enraged that May was left alone in the dark of night waiting for Peter. Ben tells Peter about his father's philosophy; that "if you could do good things for other people, you had a moral obligation to do those things." Peter is resentful and storms off, so Ben leaves to search for him. Peter attempts to buy a small bottle of milk at a convenience store, but is two cents short. The cashier refuses to discount the two cents, citing store policy. The store is robbed soon after, and when asked to help stop the thief running outside, Peter snarkily replies that it isn't his policy. Soon after, Peter hears a gunshot, and when he goes to investigate, he finds that Uncle Ben has been shot.

Peter is given a police sketch of the suspect, who he recognizes as the thief he let go at the convenience store. He is also informed that the suspect has a star tattoo on his left wrist. Enraged, he begins a hunt for the thief, attacking anyone who looks similar to the sketch, including pursesnachers and thugs. He eventually dons a mask to hide his identity from the crooks he attacks. During this time, he develops a web-like fluid to attack enemies and for traversal. He creates "web-shooters" to fire the fluid. His vigilantism in the depths of New York catches the attention of the Police Captain George Stacy, who is Gwen's father. Some time after his vigilantism begins, Peter creates a full suit for himself --his Spider-Man costume.

When Peter accepted Gwen's invitation for dinner, he met her family, and discussed with her father that the "Spider-Man" was a hero, not a vigilante. This annoyed George, who insisted he was nothing more than a punk in a mask. After a short argument, he and Gwen leave to "get some fresh air" on the rooftop. Here, he reveals to Gwen that he is Spider-Man, but soon leaves in response to a police report on the bridge.

### Against The Lizard

On the bridge, Peter faces a large, reptilian creature, known as the Lizard. He manages to intercept the Lizard, but is unable to fight him, as he rescues a small child from a burning car while the Lizard escapes. It was here that Peter takes the Spider-Man name himself, and the public becomes widely aware of him.

The next day, Peter goes to meet with Dr. Connors at OsCorp, and very quickly realizes that Connors had mutated himself into the Lizard. He attempts to warn Captain Stacy about it, but he doesn't believe him. Peter later decides to track the Lizard into the sewers, and also get pictures of him for a cash reward at the Daily Bugle. He is attacked by the Lizard and severely wounded, and barely escapes. Peter had left his camera in the sewer, which the Lizard finds and realizes Peter is Spider-Man. The Lizard later attacks the school in an attempt to kill Peter and prevent him from further interrupting his plans (despite Peter trying to reason with him), but when the fight continues for too long, the police arrive, and he is forced to retreat.

Peter calls Gwen, asking her to develop an antidote at OsCorp, then follows the Lizard and finds his lab. After finding video files in the makeshift lab, Peter discovers the Lizard is planning to use a device capable of creating a cloud carrying a serum large enough to cover an entire city to transform New York into lizard creatures like himself. He very quickly realizes the device is located at OsCorp, and attempts to call Gwen to warn her and get her to leave. Gwen refuses, and evacuates the building. Peter then rushes to OsCorp, in an attempt to save both Gwen and all of New York City.

On his way, Peter is attacked by the NYPD. He is shot with an electrified dart, which briefly knocks him unconscious. Captain Stacy unmasks him, but Peter is woken by his spider-sense, and knocks Stacy down before he can see who he is. After webbing the eyes of the officers and easily defeating them, he is forced to reveal to Captain Stacy who he really is. Stacy realizes that Peter is truly trying to protect the city, and allows him to go. However, on his way, an officer shoots him in the leg. A weakened Spider-Man is then assisted by crane operators, as one of them was the father of the child he saved on the bridge. The operators move their cranes in a way that creates a straight shot to OsCorp.

At OsCorp, Spider-Man arrives to fight the Lizard, but is restrained by his tail. The Lizard crushes his web shooters and pulls off his mask, taunting him about the loss of his parents and uncle. Captain Stacy arrived and helped Spider-Man by shooting the Lizard, stunning him. Peter used liquid nitrogen to freeze the Lizard, making him more vulnerable. He manages to get to the chemical device and switch the reptilian serum with the antidote that Gwen had made. The Lizard eventually murders Captain Stacy and attempts to stop Peter, but fails, and the antidote cloud reverts the Lizard back into Curt Connors.

As Captain Stacy is dying, Peter is forced to promise him not to see Gwen anymore, to keep her out of harm's way. Peter covertly attended Captain Stacy's funeral, and ignored Gwen the following days per her father's request. Peter eventually told Gwen it was over, but she very quickly realized her father was the reason for this. The following day at school, Peter is told by a teacher not to make promises he can't keep in response to his tardiness. Peter whispers to Gwen, "but those are the best kind", revealing he would get back together with her. He swung through the city again that night, in response to a police report.

### Rise of Electro

Over the next several months, Spider-Man's popularity from both civilians and authorities soared to incredible heights. Graffiti depicting silhouettes of him was everywhere, he was the sponsor of rent and restaurant companies, and his image could even be seen in the form of a latte. Peter also received an assignment from J. Jonah Jameson via The Daily Bugle to take photos of Spider-Man. He also attempts to maintain a friendship with Gwen after their initial breakup, and created a new, redesigned costume with her after Peter's first costume was damaged by a turbine.

On the day of his high school graduation, Peter got sidetracked when low-level criminal Aleksei Sytsevich stole an Oscorp truck full of radioactive plutonium and drove it maniacally through the streets of Manhattan, pummeling everything in the way. Spider-Man gave chase on the truck and saved several people, including Oscorp employee Max Dillon, whom he gave a brief pep talk to before heading for the truck again. Once breaching the truck, he got all but one can of plutonium to safety. He was able to get a hold of that can, and then webbed Sytsevich up, leaving his boxer shorts fully exposed. While heading to the graduation on a police car, Gwen called him, since he was late. While on the call, he had a hallucination of George Stacy's corpse. Peter managed to get to the graduation in time to receive his diploma, but Gwen soon deduced that Peter had lied to her. He finally admits that he has been seeing Captain Stacy everywhere he goes, and that he knows it means he has to break up with Gwen, which he does.

Later on, Peter saw on the news that Norman Osborn had died of his illness, and that Harry had taken over the reins of the company. In order to reunite with his friend and find out more secrets about his parents, Peter went to go meet Harry and they spent the day together. Afterward, Peter decided to have a night with Gwen in order to maintain their friendship, though they couldn't help but get romantic at some points. As the night progressed happily, Gwen revealed that she had received a scholarship to Oxford University and was considering going there. Before they could discuss it, the power in Times Square shut out, prompting Peter to investigate as Spider-Man. Upon arriving at the scene, he ran into Max Dillon again, who had just become Electro. Given the fact their encounter was brief and Dillon was blue with electricity, Spider-Man didn't recognize him until a bit later. This left Dillon distressed, though, because he thought Spider-Man was his best friend. Spider-Man then tried to calm him down, along with all of the officials and paparazzi (Gwen included), but police snipers fired at Dillon, prompting him to unleash his powers on the people around. He ended up destroying Times Square, but before anyone could truly get killed, Spider-Man knocked him out with a power hose, with the people's praise all around him, and had Electro delivered to Oscorp for further study.

### Complications

Peter began to get frustrated by the lack of answers in his life and constructed a collage of photographs, printouts and other articles to do with his parents on his bedroom wall. The next day he was contacted again by Harry, who asked for his assistance with the fact Harry was dying of retroviral hyperplasia, the same genetic disease which killed his father. Harry had deduced that Spider-Man was bitten by one of the cross-species spiders and as they had all been destroyed in the wake of the Lizard thought the only way to receive what he believed to be the cure locked inside their DNA would be through the superhero's blood. Not knowing the two were one and the same, he begged Peter to ask for Spider-Man's help, as Peter had taken the photographs of the wall-crawler for the Bugle. Peter hesitantly agreed, but later spoke to Harry as Spider-Man and refused to give any blood, fearing that Harry would react similarly to Curt.

Aunt May discovered the collage in Peter's room, and after a heartfelt conversation May finally disclosed that after the deaths of his parents her and Ben were visited by FBI agents who told her that Richard was a traitor trying to sell secrets to foreign military powers. Peter tried to speak to Gwen about this turn of events but caught her as she was entering her final interview for Oxford. Gwen told Peter that they were on different paths. This combined with the revelation about his father and his conflict over Harry caused him to destroy the collage in a fit of anger. He threw the calculator from his father's briefcase against the wall, and it smashed to reveal Subway tokens.

This proved to be the clue that lead him to his father's secret lab in a disused section of the New York Subway, and there he found a video recorded by Richard on the night him and Mary left Peter. Richard explained that Norman Osborn was the one selling the secrets, and when Richard objected Norman falsified evidence against him. Richard also revealed that the cross-species spiders were encoded to his DNA and would only work on his bloodline - Exonerating Peter from guilt about Harry as he had in fact saved his friend by not giving him his blood. Upon leaving however he discovered a voicemail from Gwen. She had been accepted into Oxford and was leaving that day.

### Turning Point

Peter, as Spider-Man, rushed to the Brooklyn Bridge, where he constructed the giant words "I Love You" out of webbing as a message to Gwen. He found her and swooped her up, and at the top of the Manhattan Bridge reaffirmed his love for her and told her she was his path and that he would follow her to England. Before they could get ready however, there was a citywide blackout and the two realized Max had taken out the power station. Gwen assisted Peter in magnetizing his web shooters - meaning that Max could no longer short circuit them as he had in Times Square - and Peter then had to web Gwen to the police car they used in order to prevent her coming with him.

Spider-Man swung to the power station where he confronted Max, now calling himself Electro. The two battled through the electrical towers and as Electro gained the upper hand Gwen arrived on the scene, running Max down with the very police car Spider-Man webbed her to. Gwen refused to leave, as she was the only one who could restart the power. Brow-beaten, Spider-Man agreed and the two formulated a plan to overcharge Electro like a battery. Gwen then went inside the power station while Spider-Man and Electro began to fight for a second time. Spider-Man managed to reconnect the main power lines with his webbing and Gwen turned the power back on. Electro was overcharged as planned, and promptly exploded.

Their victory was cut short when they were intercepted by Harry, who had taken a secret batch of Richard Parker's spider venom and been mutated by the cross-species formula. Seeing Spider-Man and Gwen together, Harry deduced Spider-Man's identity and as retaliation for feeling as though Peter had betrayed him whisked Gwen to the top of a nearby clock tower. Spider-Man was initially able to save Gwen when first Harry dropped her, however in the ensuing conflict Gwen ended up dangling hundreds of feet up inside the clock tower by a webline. Spider-Man and Harry battled viciously over Gwen's fate, ending in the gear mechanism they were fighting on being destroyed, Harry being subdued and the webline Gwen was holding onto breaking.

Spider-Man managed to catch her with another web inches from the ground, however upon inspection discovered she was dead. He initially refused to accept this, but soon the reality hit him and he cradled her body and wept. Her funeral was attended by many people including her family, Peter and his Aunt May. Her death shook Peter to his core and he quit being Spider-Man. For five months he visited her grave every day. The city joined as a chorus in hoping for the return of Spider-Man, but it was not until, spurred on by Aunt May, Peter began to sort through Gwen and his parent's things and he finally listened to her graduation speech, which inspired him to return as the superhero in time to confront Alexsei Sytsevich, who had returned as the Rhino. As time went on, Peter became increasingly brutal in his pursuit of villains, and stopped pulling his punches. Unable to move on from Gwen's death, he became angry and bitter, and pushed away his civilian life.

### Multiverse Unleashed

Spider-Man was eventually transported to the alternate reality of Earth-199999 as the result of a botched magic spell cast in this universe. This world's Peter Parker had his identity as Spider-Man exposed to the public, so he sought the help of Doctor Strange to magically erase the world's knowledge that he was Spider-Man. When the spell went wrong, it almost pulled into Earth-199999 the infinity of people from across the Multiverse who knew Peter Parker was Spider-Man. Strange managed to contain the spell before this happened, but a handful of people made it into Earth-199999. In addition to Peter, most of the Multiversal visitors were villains, including the Lizard and Electro from timelines similar to Peter's set earlier in time.

Peter's arrival into this reality went unnoticed until two allies of the native Spider-Man, MJ and Ned Leeds, stumbled into him on their search for the Peter they knew. Using a Sling Ring, Ned attempted to open a magic portal to find his Peter, but the artifact honed in on the visting Parker. A second attempt saw Ned similarly hone into yet another foreigner Spider-Man, the Peter Parker of Earth-96283. MJ and Ned were joined by the two Spider-Men in finding their Peter on the rooftop of this world's Midtown High School, where he was mourning the death of his aunt May. The two Peters spurred on their counterpart, and Peter opened up about Gwen's death, the way it affected him, and wished not to see the native Spider-Man go a similar path. The three Peters then worked together to finish developing cures for the visiting villains, and Peter took on the task of curing the Lizard due to his previous experience.

The three Spider-Man then lured the villains to the Statue of Liberty using the Machina de Kadavus as a bait, which was a device that could return the villains to their respective timelines. The Lizard, Electro and the Sandman arrived at the scene and confronted the heroes, who were initially sloppy in their teamwork. They managed to pull themselves together and also assigned themselves nicknames; the native Peter being "Peter-One," the other visiting Peter being "Peter-Two," and Peter being "Peter-Three." Taking one target at a time, the Spider-Men first targeted Sandman. Peter-Two lured him to the top of the Statue of Liberty and Peter-Three tossed him the cure. Peter-One subsequently administered the Lizard his cure, while Peter-Three confronted Electro. He was joined by Peter-Two, but both were overwhelmed. The only other villain to have been cured earlier, Doctor Octopus, arrived and attacked the two Spider-Men to trick Electro, and instead administered him his cure when his guard was down. Peter-Three exchanged a few words with the cured Electro before the final Multiversal villain arrived, the Green Goblin. He destroyed the Machina de Kadavus with an explosion, unleashing the initial botched spell and tearing the fabric of reality. Both MJ and Ned were present at the scene, and MJ fell off the scaffolding surrounding the Statue of Liberty with the detonation. Peter-One tried to save her, but he was intercepted by the Green Goblin. Peter-Three leapt to MJ's rescue. He successfully caught her and landed on the ground. Due to the similarity in scenario to Gwen's death, Peter was overcome with a sense of redemption.

When Peter-One faced off against the Goblin, the other two Parkers watched as he brutally beat the villain in revenge for May's death. Peter-Two interceded to stop Peter-One from killing the Goblin, bringing him back to his senses. Peter-Three tossed Peter-One the cure for the Goblin, and he administered it. With Doctor Strange failing to contain the effects of the unleashed spell, the native Peter asked him to use magic to make the entire world forget his existence, thus neutralizing the effects of the initial spell. The three Spider-Men bid farewell, and all the visitors were transported back to their respective timelines.

## Powers and Abilities

### Powers

**Spider-Physiology** - After being bitten by a genetically altered spider, Peter Parker's body changed giving him the proportionate powers of a spider; such as superhuman strength, durability, speed, agility, reflexes, stamina, wallcrawling etc. He also has a "spider-sense", which alerts him to danger.

* **Spider-Sense** - Spider-Man possesses precognitive danger senses, allowing him to pre-empt and dodge any form of attack just after sensing them. It warns him of impending danger with a tingling sensation in the base of his skull, and links with his superhuman reflexes, enabling him to evade most injuries. It appears to be a simultaneous clairvoyant response to a wide variety of phenomena - from falling safes to speeding bullets to thrown punches - which has given several hundredths of a second warning. He can discern the nature of the threat by the sensation, and discern the severity of the danger by the strength of his response to it. Spider-Man's spider-sense is directional and can guide him to or away from hidden or disguised weapons and enemies. Sudden and extreme threats can cause his spider-sense to react with painful intensity. His spider-sense can be triggered even when he is asleep or stunned. The spider-sense does not react to those who Spider-Man does not consider to be a threat, such as Aunt May and he can choose to ignore his spider-sense through intense concentration and it can lose some effectiveness if he is exhausted or distracted. Spider-Man's fighting style incorporates the advantage that his "spider-sense" provides him. His body begins to produce more adrenaline after the sense is triggered, an extension of the "fight or flight syndrome". His spider-sense is powerful enough that he was able to sense the police heading towards the bridge when the Lizard was going after Ratha all the way from Stacy's building, meaning he detected danger from literally miles away.
* **Superhuman Attributes** -
	+ **Superhuman Strength** - Possessing the proportionate strength of a spider, Spider-Man can lift objects that weigh up to approximately 10 tons relatively easily. Spider-Man's physical strength is sufficient to lift and throw objects as heavy as most automobiles with little to no effort, he must also pull his punches and kicks unless fighting someone of similar or greater physical durability, otherwise, his blows would prove fatal to normal humans. He can knock out individuals with normal durability with as little as a tap to the head, destroy everyday items with one strike such as his alarm clock, shatter the backboard of a basketball hoop in the school gym and doing the same to the front door glass panel at home, pull apart guns, swing at high velocities on a rope or web, able to hold a van with one hand while hanging from a web and halt a large bus from crushing a civilian.
	+ **Superhuman Durability** - Spider-Man can withstand great impact, such as falling from heights or being hit by superstrong opponents, that would severely injure or kill a normal human. He fell onto a car from a height, with enough impact to break the windshield, without any lasting harm to himself and survived a strong electrical blasts from Electro including a stream of electricity point blank in the face.
	+ **Superhuman Speed** - Possessing the proportionate speed of a spider, Spider-Man is able to get in and out of a car unnoticed much faster than a thief. Spider-Man dodged multiple gunshots at point blank range fired by police officer. He is able to catch up to or outrun speeding vehicles relatively easily, as he was able to outran multiple police cars that were chasing him easily. During Spider-Man's battle with Electro, when a police car was about to crush nearby civilians he saved them before the people even realized what had happened.
	+ **Superhuman Agility** - Spider-Man, who has had no training, can perform any complicated sequence of gymnastic stunts such as flips, rolls and springs. Due to Spider-Man's superhuman strength and agility, he is extremely acrobatic and is able to perform high jumps, high leaps, somersaults, flips, etc.
	+ **Superhuman Reflexes** - Spider-Man can dodge or counter any attack, including gunfire, even at point blank range. Spider-Man's spider-sense allows him to sense danger before it happens which helps him to react in advance.
	+ **Superhuman Equilibrium** - Spider-Man's equilibrium is able to adjust his position by instinct, allowing him to balance himself on any object, no matter how small or narrow it is.
	+ **Superhuman Leaping** - Spider-Man's increased muscular strength in his legs means that he is capable of leaping from one building over a street to the next and leap several feet in a single bound.
	+ **Superhuman Flexibility** - Spider-Man is able to bend his body in ways that normal humans would have to train for years to do so.
	+ **Superhuman Stamina** - Spider-Man is able to perform physical activities for a longer period before experiencing fatigue.
	+ **Superhuman Senses** - Spider-Man's vision improves from needing glasses to perfect eyesight in a matter of hours. He also has perfect aim, as his webs rarely miss their target, even when he's not looking or blinded.
* **Wall-Crawling** - Spider-Man is able to mentally control the flux of inter-atomic attractive forces on surfaces he touches, allowing him to stick to any surface, no matter how rough or slippery. He has conscious control over this ability. He has an upper limit of several tons per finger. He is capable of using this, combined with his strength, to uproot objects from their place without having to fully use his hands, such as when he pulled open the back window of a van.

### Abilities

* **Indomitable Will** - Spider-Man has a strong force of will, completely free of evil and temptation. He has struggled to balance his life as a student and his superhero antics.
* **Genius-Level Intellect** - Academically gifted, Peter displays an uncanny affinity for science, mathematics, mechanics, biology, and physics. Peter is very intelligent, specifically in chemistry and physics. He is intelligent enough to perfect his father's webbing formula and to construct working mechanical web-shooters. He also apparently solves a formula that is key to creating the formula that mutates Curt Connors into The Lizard. He was able to create a device to lock and open his room door through a command switch. Also, upon starting his crime-fighting career, he used a cell phone to create a homemade police scanner to listen to police recordings about the crimes that are currently happening.
	+ **Science Major** - Peter is a brilliant individual, with exceptional skill in practically every field of science, and is an excellent inventor. He is an accomplished chemist and physicist. He possesses enough confidence in this field to invent his trademark web-shooters.
* **Expert Skateboarder** - Peter is a very skilled skateboarder and skated everywhere he went, even before the spider bite.
* **Skilled Photographer** - Peter is a very skilled photographer.
* **Master Acrobat** - Due to Spider-Man's strength and phenomenal equilibrium, he is an excellent athlete, excelling in all gymnastic fields and being able to perform every acrobatic stunt ever performed, including others that can never be performed by even an Olympic acrobat. Due to his superhuman physical attributes, Spider-Man easily surpasses normal acrobats and is able to perform somersaults, flips, spins, cartwheels, etc.
* **Expert Combatant** - Due to Spider-Man's superhuman physical attributes, acrobatic prowess and spider-sense, he is an excellent hand-to-hand combatant using a fighting style derived from his spider-like attributes, he made his own street style that could rival virtually any combatant out of sheer volatility to standard fighting techniques (e.g. webbing, wall crawling, super reflexes, super strength to lift heavy objects, etc.) using a mixture of his superhuman strength, speed, agility, reflexes, jumping, leaping, equilibrium, spider-sense, intelligence and web-shooters, Spider-Man is able to utilize an devastating acrobatic fighting style that makes him a formidable opponent and allowed him to easily take down thugs, cops (be it regular officers or SWAT officers) and even the more physically powerful Lizard.

## Paraphernalia

### Equipment

* **Web-Shooters** - Peter's brilliance at physical science allowed him to create web-shooters for use when he became Spider-Man. The twin devices worn on his wrists are able to shoot thin strands of a special strong web fluid at high pressure and speeds. Spider-Man's webs can be used to ensnare and even immobilize his opponents. Also, Spider-Man moves through locations by shooting a web-line and attaching it to an object (most often a building). He then swings, shoots another web-line, attaches it, and repeats the process. It appears to be able to hold more than one web cartridge in case more is needed.
	+ **Web Fluid** - A shear-thinning liquid, virtually solid until a shearing force is applied to it, rendering it fluid, whose exact formula remains unknown, but is rumored to be related to nylon. The web line's tensile strength is estimated to be 120 pounds per square millimetre of cross section. After getting his powers, he mysteriously bought the Oscorp Bio-cable and incorporated the cartridges into his web-shooters.
