## Out of World Info

### Designed By

Me

Audrey was made for the spider-sona trend that happened after Into the Spiderverse came out. She just happened several years after the fact. Her spider squad, Arachnid and Ogre-Spider, were created by two of my close friends. There is so much lore about Audrey, Ava, and Marcus floating around in my email. Audrey is my darling and I love her so much.

## Appearance

### Simple Appearance

Audrey has a lean, lithe build and long reddish-brown hair. Her eyes are a glowing sage green and her peachy-gold skin is flecked with freckles.

### Detailed Description

Audrey Bennett is nothing short of captivating and she knows it very well. She has a lithe frame, a testament to her years of hard work on the ice and more recently her work as a hero, and she walks with an air of confidence. Her hair is most often tied up, either a loose and casual ponytail that allows soft waves to frame her face or a slicked back competition bun. When it is down, it reaches a little bit past her shoulders. In color, it is a deep raspberry red with hints of dark brown. Her eyes are wide and round, but no one could possibly mistake them as being childish. They are pale sage green in color, an undertone of blue adding to the shade. Her skin is a warm peachy-gold color and she goes red fairly easily. She is naturally covered in freckles, a trait shared with her younger brother DJ.

### Detailed Personality

   Audrey has been skating for years. She has won numerous competitions and proven herself again and again. She carries herself with confidence on and off the rink. No one can really bring her down because she simply won’t let them. She is confident in herself and her abilities. She’s also very intelligent. Audrey has an excellent memory and picks up new skills quickly. She has an innate sense of rhythm and is good with both her mind and body. She has a quick wit and is known for being both a good conversationalist and for her competitive accomplishments. Audrey is quite charming and is a bit of a flirt. She is quick to adapt to new social situations and is rather friendly. Audrey is trusting, believing that most people are good and want to do good. She would rather assume the best and be proven wrong than assume the worst and not get a chance to be proven wrong. It may sound foolhardy, but it matters a lot to Audrey that she trusts people and gives people a reason to trust her. She is also bursting with creativity. If it’s not a new way to spice up her skating routine, it’s an idea for a painting or drawing. She has a lot of ideas and likes to think outside the box. She applies her intelligence to her creative projects and her creativity to logical problems.

Her tongue and quick wit get her in trouble more often than she cares to admit. Audrey is very sarcastic, quick with dry comments and quick to make jokes out of serious situations. This gets her a one-way ticket to being thought of as immature or accused of taking things to lightly. Audrey knows when to keep her mouth shut, she just doesn’t and that can get her in many a sticky situation. Audrey is a spider-person, after all. Snarky one-liners are half the point of the spider-verse. Audrey tends to be quite stubborn as well, sticking to her beliefs, her opinions, what she thinks is right. Audrey hates being wrong and will stubbornly cling to anything that can prove her right. If she realizes that she was wrong, she will try to change but if someone else points out her flaws, she just gets worse. She is incredibly emotional. She feels a lot and she feels deeply. Some might call it “irresponsible” or “dangerous” to have someone so guided by emotion possess powers like hers, but the passion she has for what she does fuels her to do better. She can also switch at the drop of a hat. The best day can turn into the worst day shockingly fast. It plays into her penchant for drama. In addition to all that, Audrey is competitive. It makes sense that someone who has spent a significant portion of her life in competitions would pick up a competitive streak even if there wasn’t one to begin with.

Audrey’s stubborn nature combines with her lack of self-control in the sarcasm department to make her an argumentative sort. Audrey doesn’t go out seeking fights but she will not hesitate to finish one. She most often gets in fights with her parents over their treatment of Phoebe, her beloved older sister. Audrey will argue for anything she feels strongly about, which is a long list. She tends to be disorganized. Her room is a mess, and she is constantly worried about forgetting something important. Three months into being a spider-person and she still hasn’t gotten a turn with one of the braincells. What she lacks in practical organization, she more than makes up for in organized revenge. Audrey is very petty and is willing to hold grudges for as long as she deems necessary. If falsely accused of something or criticized, Audrey gets very defensive. Her good reputation means the world to her and the idea of people \*gasp\* not liking her is just the worst thing she can imagine, so she will snap back with a quick defense of her honor. If directed at Audrey, she will deal with it outright but if directed at Sil, she needs do naught but point her brother in their direction and watch him tear them apart. Audrey is also reckless. She will endanger herself for the greater good. She will push the limits of what she can do and doesn’t like listening to people who tell her what to do. She doesn’t always know best and should probably take advice from time to time, but she sure doesn’t act like it.

## Background

### Childhood

Audrey was born in Seattle, Washington, on May 13 to Estella and Jacob Bennett. She had one older sister, Phoebe, who was two years older than her. The Bennetts didn't have much family nearby - Estella's parents had died a few years prior, before even Phoebe was born, her sister Rachel lived in New York, and Jacob's parents lived in Oakland, California.

Audrey's life was a happy one. Her brother DJ was born when she was three years old, but otherwise things were quite good for young Audrey. She got along well with Phoebe and bugged DJ when he was a bit older and she generally had things pretty good.

Audrey tried ballet once when she was in preschool, around four years old. She didn't like it very much, but Estella had done it when she was younger and Audrey wanted to be like her mom. Around the same time, Audrey encountered the idea of ice skating. She started lessons when she was five years old and was absolutely delighted by the sport.

* Grandma Bennett was her "great power, great responsibility" person

### Adolescence

#### Spider-Silhouette

When she was sixteen, she finally started seriously training for the Olympics. After practice one day where she had taken a bad fall, she was bitten by a radioactive spider. What should have been the end of her Olympic dreams cleared up remarkably fast and, sensing that there was something weird going on, Audrey started investigating what the bite might have done to her. A week or two later, she stopped a street fight by webbing up everyone involved and hopping away. She explained things to her sister, who was visiting, and together they designed and made a costume. Donning the name Spider-Silhouette, Audrey has been trying her best for the last three months to balance her schooling, skating, and spider-ing.

#### Meeting the Other Spiders

* Two months after becoming a spider, Audrey gets jumped by Ava while out spidering

AVA AND SIL MEETING: Ava and Sil for the first couple spider months where separate ways, always hearing about each other, always wondering “who the hell is my doppelganger?” Until one day they are tracking the same bad guy. First reaction about bumping into each other:

Ava: “WHO THE HECK ARE YOU?” While pinning down Sil getting ready to fight

Sil: “AN IDIOT WHO IS 100% NOT READY TO BE PUNCHED RIGHT NOW” literally just surrendering because HOLY CRAP SHE JUST TACKLED ME FROM BEHIND AND SPIDER SENSE BARELY KICKED IN

Anyway Ava’s just like “stay out of my way” and sil’s like “haha no <3”. And then Sil get’s hurt pretty bad and Ava (grumbling the whole time) takes  her back to the apartment and wakes Tea up.

Tea: “Ava….. WHO THE HECK IS THIS!?!?! I can only handle so many BeAt Up BlOoDy PeOpLe!” and a whole lecture as she literally tends to everyone’s wounds even Ava’s. And in the morning Tea is our perfect little sunshine mom making extra pancakes for Sil and only like 2 for Ava because she brought another  bloody person into their life.

* The first game night that Audrey came to she wasn’t invited, she had been on a rough patrol and was in the neighborhood and decided to crash at Ava’s for a second before heading home. She proceeded to get way too involved in the games. Game nights are every Sunday

* While hunting down Risk one time, Audrey and Ava ended up in Bellevue only to find that Marcus aka Ogre-Spider had already captured her. Insert Spider-Man pointing meme moment.

#### Symbiote Nonsense

* It's all Marcus and Ava tbh but Audrey is around for it.

#### Olympics & Crisis

Audrey’s crisis arc happens when her identity gets revealed. After trying so hard to seem like Just A Normal Person at the Olympics, she still gets accused of cheating once her identity comes out. She finally gives up her skating career in exchange for all memories of her identity being magically erased.

## Other

### Notes

* Her universe is called Earth-828
* Audrey gets a Patreon once she moves out of her parents’ house and is doing spidery things at college. Audrey just straight up starts a Patreon for herself so that she doesn’t have to worry about a job along with her homework and spidering.
* Audrey is extremely outgoing at school, but still shunned by other athletic people because if you aren’t doing a school sport, you might as well not be doing a sport. She’s extremely accomplished but no one really talks about it because skating isn’t a school thing. Only her friends and a couple teachers actually know about it until she goes to the Olympics
* Usually clear, but speaks fast and stumbles over her words when excited, flustered, angry, etc.

### Trivia

* When on slow patrols, she likes doing cat’s cradle with her webbing
* She has a stuffed frog and dinosaur from her childhood that she still hangs on to; their names are Emmy and Kiwi. She’s got a couple more, but those are her favorites.
* Calls herself and her spider-friends the Spider Squad or Spider2 because alliteration. She doesn’t use Spider-Squared when Ogre is around because then there’s three of them.
* She has a stupidly complicated skincare routine that she can’t always keep up but prefers to when she can.
* Audrey and her family live in the Queen Anne neighborhood of Seattle. Queen Anne, Queens, it’s all the same right? Specifically lower Queen Anne.
* She loves going to MoPop. Usually she goes with Bee and/or DJ, but not always.
* Audrey is the only person in her spider squad who never even touched the symbiote. Ava has a whole arc with it and Marcus was the first to discover it.
* Audrey doesn't have much social media, but she loves being in Ava's posts. Almost always in costume, of course, doing stupid crap like TikTok trends on the sides of buildings and dumb stuff like that. I love my idiots <3
* Audrey really likes hip-hop music. She's also big into alt and rock, with a few pop subgenres mixed in there.
* She is a master at pretending that, yep, I totally meant to run into that pole. She gets distracted very easily while walking and often runs into things. Her parents wonder if she needs glasses. She doesn’t. She’s just terrible at watching where she’s going. Audrey will pretend that any embarrassing thing she just did was completely intentional and, for bonus points, that she’s even cooler for it.
* Audrey lives off coffee. Does she always have her water bottle? Yes. Is she well hydrated? Sometimes. Does she like water? Absolutely not. She loves her coffee.
* Audrey occasionally drags the spider squad down to the ice rink on her days off. Ava as often as she can and Marcus on special occasions because he doesn’t live as close and doesn’t want to spend web fluid or money to get there. Audrey thinks it’s the best. It’s team building, she says. It’s good exercise, she says. She’s having the time of her life trying to help her friends skate (read: watching her friends fail at skating).
* Her handwriting is either gorgeous or illegible, no in between. It varies wildly.
* She doesn’t really care about medical stuff and getting cared for unless it’s Tea because she has a healing factor and insists she’ll be fine. Tea’s the only person that can convince her to hold still for five minutes and put a band-aid on.
* If she were to be arrested, which she of course wouldn’t, it would be for being somewhere she shouldn’t be {top of the Space Needle, chilling on a sign, etc.}
* She knows too much trivia and pop culture stuff
* She likes faking a New York accent but it’s a really really bad NY accent (it very much irritates Phoebe and Aunt Rachel)
* She has an Arachnid pin on her backpack. Ava has a matching Spider-Sil one.
* She hates boats and being on the water.
* I fully believe that if she were part of the Spiderverse franchise, her existence would irritate Miguel O'Hara to no end. Three spiders in one universe where everything seems to be going okay? Mr. Canon Events would freaking hate her.

### Quotes

* *“What’s a spider?”* - when asked if she is Spider-Sil
* *“Are you a spider-bro or a spider-hoe?”* - to Marcus about hanging out with his girlfriend
