Albert Moon Jr. (Brother)

## Background

### 1985 - 2009: Cindy Moon

Cindy Moon is the first child & only daughter of Albert Moon Sr. & Nari Moon. Her parents had another child, a son named Albert Jr. when Cindy was four. Cindy adored her brother as she always wanted a younger sibling.

Cindy was a bright child, something her parents quickly noticed & encouraged. They eventually discovered that she had an eidetic memory. Her parents became quite strict after this, making Cindy all her time on school work & extra-curricular activities. However, Cindy had made time to find a boyfriend in her classmate & teammate Hector Cervantez. Unlike his wife, her father was supportive of his daughter relationship with Hector & kept it a secret from his wife. When her mother discovered that Cindy had a boyfriend, she forced to go to the school field trip to General Techtronics Center as punishment. The two got in a huge argument, with Cindy telling her mother that she hated her.

Cindy was annoyed as her mother dropped her off at the lab to make sure she attended. However, her father had secretly informed Hector about Cindy's whereabouts so he came on the field trip to keep her company.While watching to the scientists demonstrated the safe handling of nuclear laboratory waste materials, a spider got a large dose of radioactivity unbeknownst to everyone at the center. The spider then bit Peter Parker, who immediately swatted it away. Dying for life, the spider crawled on the floor & bit Cindy.

What initially started as a bad rash from a spider bite turned to Cindy's uncontrollable organic webbing accidentally capturing up her parents. Her father reached out to some of his associates, who eventually put him in contact with a man named Ezekiel Sims. He offer the family his help to guide Cindy in controlling her newfound abilities. Not sure what else to do, Cindy's parents allowed Ezekiel to take her away.

For the next six years, Cindy remained locked up in a facility by Ezekial. This bunker had years worth of food, books, and tapes on the outside world which Cindy watched every day. She knew the code to leave at anytime but with Ezekial's threat to harm her family, she decided to stay put despite the horrible boredom. Her family never came looking for her as Ezekial forced her to make videos stating how everything was fine. The only time she was let out was when he trained her in her abilities.

Believing she has finally mastered abilities enough, Cindy decides to break out of confinement. During a training session, she extensively webs Ezekial up before calling the authorities. The police & Spiderman arrive at the facility to find a hostile Cindy. Confused by the man in a costume, Cindy attacks Spiderman in a fit of rage believing he is an accomplice of Ezekial. After a quick tussle, Spiderman calms Cindy down by telling her that Ezekial has been arrested & is no longer a threat to her.

### 2009 - 2010: Silk

Ecstatic about her freedom, Cindy quickly made her way out of the facility to finally see the city of New York after hiding in her bunker for so long. She made herself an improvised costume of webs & told Spiderman to call her Silk. She heads to her parents' home but finds out they have moved. Realizing just how much she’s lost, Cindy breaks down on her old rood. As Spiderman comforts her, they feel the powerful connection from their Spider-Senses & end up sharing a kiss. The two begin an extremely intimate relationship, surprising Quinn at the Parker residence. Feeling threatened by the presence of Quinn, she forcibly told her to back off from Peter before he explain Quinn was his sister & she apologized.

To give herself some stability in life, Cindy accepted a job at the Fact Channel to help her search. She also began her solo crime-fighting career & used her old bunker as a base of operations to learn more about her family. Noticing that her family has no official records of being around but some old files, Cindy goes to her old neighborhood for memories. She eventually received information from Jonah Jameson about a man named James Park, who was suspected to be Cindy's long-lost brother. Cindy was able to confirm his identity but her brother had no memory of his previous life. Since her relationship with Peter ended & she received promotion at work, Cindy has continued her search for her parents.

## Romantic Relationships

* Hector Cervantez: Boyfriend (2000 - 2001)
* Peter Parker: Dated (2009 - 2010)

## Powers & Abilities

* **Mutate Spider Physiology:** Silk possesses the proportionate powers of a spider, granted to her from an irradiated spider that was mutated from prior exposure to certain frequencies of radiation & received a final, lethal dose during Moon's attendance of the exhibition. The radioactive, complex mutagenic enzymes in the spider's blood that were transferred at the time of the bite triggered numerous body-wide mutagenic changes within Moon, granting her numerous arachnid-like abilities.
	+ ***Wall-Crawling*:** Silk's exposure to the mutated spider venom induced a mutagenic, cerebellum-wide alteration of her engrams allowing her to defy gravity & crawl on walls. This ability to affect the attraction between surfaces is so far limited to Silk's body (especially in her hands & feet) and another object, with an upper limit of several tons per finger.
	+ ***Superhuman Strength*:** Silk possesses superhuman strength enabling her to press lift a few tons, though she possesses significantly less strength than Spiderman.
	+ ***Superhuman Speed*:** She is capable of running & moving at speeds that are far beyond the natural physical limits of the finest human athlete. Her speed even surpasses that of Spiderman as shown when she outmaneuvered him during their first encounter.
	+ ***Superhuman Stamina*:** Her musculature produces less fatigue toxins during physical activity than an ordinary human. This allows her to exert herself physically for much longer periods of time.
	+ ***Superhuman Durability*:** Silk's body is more resistant to some types of injury than the body of a normal human. Her body is more resistant to impact forces than anything else. She can withstand great impacts that would severely injure or kill a normal human with little to no discomfort.
	+ ***Superhuman Agility*:** Her agility, balance & bodily coordination are all enhanced to levels that are beyond the natural physical limits of the finest human athlete & more advanced than Spiderman.
	+ ***Superhuman Equilibrium*:** Silk possesses the ability to achieve a state of perfect equilibrium in any position imaginable. She seems able to adjust her position by instinct.
	+ ***Superhuman Reflexes*:** Her reflexes are similarly enhanced & mare much greater than those of an ordinary human.
	+ ***Silk-Sense*:** Silk possesses an extrasensory danger sense (silk-sense) which warns her of potential immediate danger & links with her superhuman kinesthetics, enabling her to evade most any injuries unless she cognitively overrides her automatic reflexes. Her Silk-Sense is more advanced than the Spider-Sense of Spider-Man as it allows her to react significantly faster in combat, has superior range & can even sense the identity of an attacker before a fight begins.
	+ ***Organic Webbing Generation*:** She has the ability to organically produce her own silk webbing from glands within her forearms,. These organic webs have many of the same properties as Spiderman's artificial webbing, but can also be woven into clothing. She is able to release her organic webbing through her fingertips.
	+ ***Claws*:** Her ability to spin webs also allows her to form claw-like extrusions from them.
	+ ***Superhuman Tracking*:** Due to her & Peter being bit by the same spider, Silk can find & sense Spiderman anywhere in the universe.

* **Eidetic Memory:** At a young age, her parents learned that Cindy possessed an eidetic memory. She never forget anything that she hears or sees.

### Weaknesses

* **Silk Sense:** While her Silk-Sense is sharper, it is often out of sync with time & generally very fickle & unreliable. Once, she was alerted one night when a girl was left by friends after a party & was crying.
