## History

### Origin

Peter B. Parker was bitten by a radioactive spider at a young age, giving him super-strength, durability, and the ability to stick to flat surfaces. After losing his Uncle Ben, he learned that *With Great Power, Comes Great Responsibility*, and so, donning a web-covered costume and wrist-mounted web-shooters, became the hero known as Spider-Man.

### Rise and Fall

As Spider-Man, Peter fought crime in New York City for twenty-two years, battling villains like the Green Goblin, Doctor Octopus, Scorpion, and more. Over the years, though, he grew tired of saving the city, and began sustaining serious injuries and making terrible buisness decisions. As he continued to fight crime, he struggled to balance his life as a hero with his personal life. He lost his Aunt May and divorced his beloved wife Mary Jane out of his fear of having the children she wanted.

Peter continued to fight crime as Spider-Man, but he fell into a deep depression, gaining weight, becoming easily frustrated, and even ignoring Ben's lesson about responsibility as all his mistakes and regrets began to weigh him down with guilt and make him even more weary and tired of caring for everyine else.

### Training Miles Morales

While Peter was in his apartment, he was sucked into a portal that transported him across the multiverse to a parallel Earth, as part of a Super-Collider experiment by the Kingpin. When he arrived, he learned that his counterpart had died, and came to visit his grave. Unbeknownst to him, a teenager who had similar spider-powers, Miles Morales, was there, and accidentally knocked Peter unconscious with his electric bioshock.

After coming to and shaking off Miles, Peter learned that Miles was on a mission to stop the Kingpin from opening another portal, one that could destroy Miles' New York. Reluctant to help Miles at first, seeing how he would disintegrate if he stayed in Miles' dimension much longer, he soon adopted his role as a begrudging mentor to Miles. While tracking down the data to shut down the collider, Peter taught Miles how to use his newfound powers, while himself rediscovering the thrills of being a superhero. The pair battled Miles' universe's Doctor Octopus for the necessary data, and came across Spider-Woman, another hero from another universe. The three teamed up and made their way to May Parker's house, where they met even more interdimensional travelers, such as a Nazi-punching, private-eye Spider-Man, a Japanese teenager with a robot spider suit called Sp//dr, and the cartoon-logic-wielding anthopromorphic pig Spider-Ham.

### Saving Miles' Earth

With their help, Peter was able to develop a USB stick to deactivate the Super-Collider, but they were located by the Kingpin's enforcers, led by the powerful assassin known as the Prowler. The heroes fought off the forces, but Miles discovered that the Prowler was his uncle and lost him in the fight. The group, headed up by Peter decided Miles wasn't ready to fight Kingpin, and left him behind as they went to a charity hosted by Kingpin, where this Earth's Mary Jane was the guest of honor. While they tried to infiltrate the Spider-Man-themed dinner to get to the collider, Peter found he had to talk to Mary Jane. He apologized for everything he ruined with his own wife, and while she was confused, the catharsis of the release helped Peter regain a lot of his lost confidence.

He and the other heroes made their way to the collider to destroy it, but they were stopped by Doctor Octopus and the Kingpin's enforcers. They were nearly beaten in the ensuing battle, but as the collider was activated, Miles returned with a brand-new suit and even better control over his powers, saving them and helping them beat back Kingpin's forces. As the collider's portal grew unstable, the team inserted the USB and each of them was sent back to their universe. When Peter's time came, he was reluctant to leave, afraid to mess things up with Mary Jane again, but Miles assured him he wouldn't, and sent him home.

### The Return

When Peter returned to his universe, he decided to try again with Mary Jane, showing up on her doorstep with a bouquet of flowers, only to find out she had moved on. He discovered she was going to have a family with a man named Andy who worked in real estate. Peter's ex-wife told him that they could be friends but nothing more. She then invited in and offered to have him stay for dinner, even help her pick out baby names. When Andy arrives, the 3 of them spend time together.

Meanwhile, back in Miles' universe, Miles used Peter's teachings about heroism to defeat Kingpin and shut down the collider, and properly take up the mantle and legacy of New York's protector, Spider-Man.

## Personality

After being Spider-Man for over two decades, Peter seems to be bored with being Spider-Man and has lost the will to keep being a hero, even hating to be reminded of the "with great power, comes great responsibility" mantra. He is incredibly sarcastic and glib, initially rejecting the idea that he could make a good teacher, and seeming to only care about himself. Throughout his journey in Miles' reality, however, being confronted by his past and also having to teach Miles how to be a superhero, it made the flame of being a hero within him spark once again, which made him regain his lost confidence and self-respect.

## Attributes

### Powers

* **Spider Physiology:** Peter was bitten by a radioactive spider and gained the proportionate physical abilities of a spider. He has 22 years of experience.
	+ **Superhuman Strength:** Peter has the inhuman strength of a spider, and can support the weight of a bus without any perceivable difficulty. He was able to punch a criminal so hard that one of his shoes came off. He also kicked the Prowler through a wall of Aunt May's house. He can also hold Miles by one arm.
	+ **Superhuman Durability:** Peter is highly resilient to injury, as he survived Miles' venom strike. No matter how many times he gets hit, he always gets back up, whether it means he gets kicked, slammed, hit by a moving vehicle, crushed by a bigger opponent's grip, or ricocheting off asphalt and nearby buildings until he tumbled into a billboard. He once broke his back falling onto the sidewalk, but he recovered. A drone also once flew into his face while he was swinging on his webs.
	+ **Superhuman Agility:** Peter can gracefully flip and swing on his webs. He also has advanced dexterity, as he easily escaped from being restrained to Miles' heavy bag.
	+ **Spider-Sense:** Peter's Spider-Sense alerts him to danger as well as the presence of those like him. He also has quick reflexes, as he grabbed his mask with his webs before being pulled into Miles' dimension in order to maintain his secret identity.
	+ **Regeneration:** Peter heals extremely quickly, as the wounds he received when he was unconscious were gone when Miles finished interrogating him.
	+ **Wallcrawling:** Peter can crawl and walk up walls.

### Abilities

Seemingly those of the Peter Parker of Earth-616 and Peter Parker of Earth-9997.

* **Genius-Level Intellect:** Peter was able to memorize Doctor Octopus' 26-digit computer password upon first seeing her enter it on her keyboard, and subtly communicated the rest of the password when Miles forgot it. He is also familiar with physics and quantum theory; he comprehended everything Doctor Octopus said about the rupture in the space-time continuum, and quickly deduced that Miles' invisibility was due to fight-or-flight. Peter's decades of experience allowed him to quickly devise a plan to infiltrate Alchemax, and accurately predict what Kingpin would say to Doctor Octopus, verbatim. He also taught Miles how to unstick from walls and web-swing under "intense, life-threatening pressure."
