"I've forgotten who I am but not what I am"
Personality
Damaged is the best way to describe Spiderslike's personality. As much of his earlier memories have been covered up by his delusions for the most part he is stable and can function much like a normal person would. He has a type of dry yet quirky humor that is at times attractive and funny, but has no problem being serious angry and caring. However extreme stress or anger will often allow his psyche to fracture and for him to believe he is that ancient spider Anansi. He often acts much how one would assume a godlike being to act but truly loves both humans and knowledge as a whole. His bio-shell acts as a series of medications to keep these thoughts at bay but it is neither perfect nor permanent. His awareness of his problem often causes mild depressions which he hides via his sense of humor. It is believed that his delusions stem from some type of trauma in his past and he created a fantasy where he felt powerful enough to handle said trauma. In fact doctors believe that the bio-shell is actually the source of the memory loss in an attempt to block the delusions and does so by blocking the cause of said delusions.

Origin Part 1
Spiderslike's real name is unknown simply because he cannot remember it. Much of his memories before he gained his power have collapsed but he has a strong grasp on how he got his powers and can never forget it. When he was still human he was a prized scientific genius with a long standing interest in arachnids. He does remember praise from an early age but can't remember from who or for what. As he aged he can't recall any higher education till he joined the U.S.A military science departments.
Part of the reason he can't remember who he was as a human because in place of memories he has tales of the west African trickster hero Anansi The spider.
He remembers having little social interactions and having to spend countless hours in his personal lab solving any problem they though at him while in the dark naked watching cartoons. Anytime he exited his lab he had whatever they asked and just kept repeating the same process over and over. Eventually he finished one of his most long term projects a self evolving immune system replacement. It's purpose was to replace a normal human immune system to counter any deadly substance encountered and cause body wide modifications to survive.
The reason for this replacement is that he like many testing facilities was part of a joint military futurist project t build super soldiers using the latest technologies. To produce the desired affects they where building an exo-suit that would bond to a human body and provide the enhancements they sought. His tales cause him to make a series of modifications to the exo-suit creating a spider themed exoskeleton bio shell. After the production was complete he seemed to have suffered a mental break causing him to inject himself with the serum and bond with the bio-shell. The process was so painful that he almost died and was monitored for the next 3 weeks while in a coma.
.
He awoke once again this time surrounded by other scientist and generals from the navy army and air force. The scientist heading the project Malcolm Walter explained to him what happened. He was told that he most likely suffered a series of mental breakdowns and suffered from delusions but due to his grand antisocial nature these breaks in reality went unnoticed and after each one he often devised some new creative work. They also told him that his delusions would worsen and cause memory lose.
This of course being a military project they saw this as an opportunity. Creating a super-powered agent to be deployed in war zones and against terrorist to cause maximum damage with only one soldier. When trying to explain that he wasn't a soldier he soon began to view flashes of war zones in different countries and different time periods. Malcolm explained that they believed that the bio-shells combat system interfaces were going to worsen his delusions.
Also due to the shock from his bonds they now are aware that the removal process would be more shocking to the body than the original graft and feared taking it off him. Since the bio-shell can't be removed he was going to begin deployment as the countries newest super being. At first he was fearful of it stating that he was not a soldier and didn't want any of this. Yet he was reminded of the fame, fortune and women that are common in the life of a celebrity super hero.
Gaining a form of acceptance over his new condition the next step was training. The bio-shell turned the user into a one man army but it still required hours of practice to use all of it's systems properly. Luckily the user built most of them and knew how to use them better than most people. Eventually he was given a mission deployment. He was airdropped directly over a left over Iranian terrorist cell to rescue a squad of POWs. With in minutes he had fully destroyed the cell and freed the captive marines.
Once he returns to the base he is ecstatic at the thrill he had fighting and saving lives and no longer cares for glory but the rush he got from doing the right thing. He tells his handlers he can't wait for another assignment. The next day he is chosen to exterminate a well armed cell of a group known as Sons of the Eternal Order. As with before Spiderslike was easily able to tear them down but in the middle of the fight he began to lose his sanity.
He began to refer to himself as Anansi claiming to be a god and they had triggered his wrath. His handlers monitoring his situation felt that he was lost to them and fired a missile strike on the headquarters just to destroy him and scrub the mission. The base was completely destroyed but Spiderslike managed to survive but was in his right mind again with no memory of his latest break. He was collected by his handlers and went into a state of depression at the idea of losing his mind. His handlers told him that they were building a method to combat his weakening sanity and he felt hopeful.
While his room he was awoken by sounds he couldn't place and began to believe he was having another breakdown. He began to see images of spiders of different sizes and almost killed a technician he ran into. His breakdown finally ended and he snuck into the birthing chamber for the bio-shell. He was going to attempt the removal process even though he would more than likely die. He started the removal process only to once again start seeing spiders.
However these spiders weren't illusions he soon realized the he was envisioning some form of wireless network interface and radio-telepathically hacked into the facilities computer even personal ones. He discovered that he was being lied to. The bio-shell was not making his condition worse the military was drugging him hoping for a full mental breakdown to make him comply to their every wish and demand without question.
He also found that the longer the suit exists in a human body the more it becomes bio versus mechanical and was developing self-awareness and was trying to communicate with him. Now aware of this information he start the process and suited up. He began to destroy the facility in an attempt to escape. He fought his way through hundreds of soldiers tanks and anything in his way. Eventually he made his way out of the facility and made good his escape. After his escape despite claiming his freedom he knew he would be hunted and choose to lay low.
He hid homeless wondering the streets just trying to mind his business and fearing for his life. Till the bio-shell made he remember the fame and fortune speech Malcolm gave him when he first joined the bio-shell. He then created a plan to no longer hide but to fight against the military industrial complex. He decided to announce his existence to the public and become a super hero or sorts.
Origin Part 2
Spiderslike's super hero campaign soon took off without any disturbance. His heroic exploits became nation wide news. He became the super hero icon people love to see. Saving little children from fires and then making it on the cover of vogue and on the pages of The Newyorker. A number of websites and Tv shows popped up about him and at the center of his life he talked about the need to weaken the military industrial complex.
His fame also attracted the attention of other super heroes and super hero teams. Many government funded groups where in a rush to have him join but he often refused citing that they where nothing more than government dogs. He wanted no such part in their teams and would continue his voice out against corrupted governments. Soon his old handlers had almost perfectly re-built the technology that allowed them to create the first bio-shell and where ready for another field test.
However the U.S. government's policy on their weapons systems being open to the public are highly enforced and they couldn't afford for Spiderslike to be running around uncontrolled any longer. Even though the could have more than likely sent stronger agents to kill him his fame would make him a martyr for the anti-military cause. So a new plan was in place to remove him as a threat.
During one of his book signings Spiderslike was attacked by a super soldier in his own bio-shell calling himself Mmoboro attacked the studio with explosives killing around 131 people. Mmoboro made claims that Spiderslike really is the trickster Anansi and that he was the Mmoboro Hornets made whole to get their revenge for him imprisoning him. Spiderslike scanned him and could see that he was simply using a modified version of his own bio-shell and that his rants where no doubt intended to trigger another delusional episode out in public.
The worst part was that it was working. He could quickly feel his sanity and grasp on reality slip from his fingers as he fought Mmoboro. What made the fight even worse was Mmoboro bio-shell had functions his didn't such as altering the outer shell into a swarm of battle hornets making combat very difficult. The swarm soon over powered him and the rants caused him to become lost in delusional flashes. His defeat was openly displayed while Spiderslike had become partially catatonic.
While defeated Spiders visions took the form of the tale in which Anansi tricked and imprisoned the Mmoboro hornets. This caused him to break free from his visions and began to pummel Mmoboro seemingly Anansi he began to insult and ridicule Mmoboro claiming that he was so easily fooled during their first encounter and that he would easily defeat now that he was one being and that he ha began to stooge of a corrupt government and a tool to be used.
Enraged Mmoboro fired a huge swarm of hornets that completely engulfed Spiderslike crushing him under their force and then grinding him to pieces. When Mmoboro released the swarm to view he remains he was shocked to see nothing and was the suddenly attacked by Spiderslike. He sent the villain flying through the air and activated the sprinkler system of the building they were in. The water weighed down the swarm keeping them from Mmoboro who had given up so much of the suit that he was no longer a much for Spiderslike.
He revealed that he hadn't had another break but was only pretending. He had copied Mmoboro technique and made a small spider to introduce a virus into Mmoboro's suit's scanners as he figured he would detect any wireless attempts and that the swarm was fooled into attack a hologram of himself. He then once again began to beat Mmoboro again and again and then ripped of his mask off to discover that he was really Malcolm. He had volunteered to under go the same process to gain the power that he witnessed in him and kill him so it would belong to only him. He even destroyed the entire base and killed everyone involved with the program so that the process couldn't be reproduced.
He explained that he know believes Spiders was right and that they where now on the path to turn themselves from men into gods using technological means and that he would not stop upgrading himself till he reached that level. Enraged beyond belief Spiderslike rammed his fist into Malcolm's chest tearing out his heart. He dropped his body on the ground and turned his back on it only to witness the swarm return and grab Malcolm and flee with him no doubt to heal his wounds and return to kill Spiderslike. This whole ordeal causes he him to decide to lay low once again.
The Lunatic
A month after Mmoboro's assault Spiderslike had begun to rent out a run down apartment in a seedy low rent building. He was working hard to find a job just to pay his bills and prepare to blend in with the rest of the populace. It wasn't as easy as it sounded as he was unable to even decide on a fact name to use and often tried his hardest to avoid the question when asked. Even worse than his attempt to find a job where his attempts to do research and discover any other bio-shells being used or designed.
Malcolm may have said that he destroyed all the suits but Spiderslike has little trust for either him nor the government and expected one of them to either lie to the other. He knew the danger that Malcolm posed when he got his armor and he didn't want to see anyone else take his place while he healed to no doubt get his revenge. Eventually the computer he modified to monitor government satelittle found an off-base location used to house weapons but still maintained a small power usage despite the program having been shut down.
Spiderslike gave up his job quest for a moment to attempt to track down the location. Yet it proved harder than he originally thought he couldn't afford to take a plane or bus and had to hitch hike his way there. It took him about a week to arrive at his destination. The base was off course hidden but Spiderslike was more shocked when he discovered the bases security systems still active. He was able to over power the defenses but the weapons and defenses assured him he was correct as only the greatest weapons got that much protection.
Eventually he made it into the base under ground and was once again attacked by the defense systems but like before he beat his way through them. Eventually he made it to a cell where he detected a bio-shell being held. He opened and not only discovered the armor but found that it was bounded to someone.
He couldn't believe that they would just lock up the user and the suit together and tried to speak to him till he was attacked by the user. The user was obviously mentally unbalanced and kept repeating "I'm a Lunatic I'm a Lunatic". Spiderslike was able to hack into the bases main A.I. systems to discover most of his personal files had been removed but discovered that like him this man suffered from mental issues that the worsen to attempt to control him but his grew out of control and he turned on everyone in the base killing most all of them. The remaining survivor was able to trap him in his cell which caused him to enter a canotonic state hoping he would die before anyone showed up to claim him, but the suit maintained his life support.
His suit was far more battle oriented and had the ability to create mental blades to be used as weapons and armor. The two fought but Spiderslike was unsure if he could kill him let alone beat him. He almost died till a sudden missile strike hit both of them. A large platoon of soldiers swarmed from the surrounding area and Lunatic turned his attention and began to rip through them. He was screaming "You want put me back to sleep" while killing them. Spiderslike release then how to stop Lunatic. He created the illusion that he was once again in his cell and he broke down and simply went quiet.
Suddenly a general came out a helicopter and asked Spiderslike what he did and would it last. Spiderslike ignored he and only stated that this man needed mental help they grabbed Lunatic and boarded him on a helicopter and tried to take Spiderslike as well but he managed to escape. Yet in doing so he gained numerous questions as to who that man was and how they found both of them in the first place, but his fears soon became real and he understood that the government was going to once again make new super soldiers using his armor. Later with the Lunatic unmasked in a real cell now the general from earlier revealed himself as Keith Samson and he said that if he wanted to get out he would let him if he promised to do a few things for him.
A True Superhero
Spiderslike decided that he needed answers once again. He didn't know how to get them without making himself a target once again. So that very much what he did. He allowed himself to become a popular figure once again. Soon he was making a number of public appearences and even going as far to once again strike out against the American government. A lot of the public still felt strongely about the damage done by Malcolm's but he tried to get past this by joining a public charity with other super heroes.
He wasn't told most of the details or was lied to as they producers wanted to increase shock and suspense values. When he tried to join he discovered that it was actual a battle royal and even villiains had been involved and competed for the prize money. During most of the fighting he fought against Kuchiku. In the end the damage his suit suffered caused it to have to withdraw to heal not only himself but the suit itself. He could only make a powerless outer shell copy just to keep his secret identity secret.
General Samson was very aware of this and choose his moment of weakness to strike. He made a deal with Lunatic and allowed him to released and controlled if he promised to hunt and kill Spiderslike. Lunatic having very little choose in the matter and only wanting to be freed agree to the rules. His battle suit was altered to be able to track the small traces of Spiderslike bio-shell even in it's weakened state. He hunted him down while he was trying to find himself a place to live.
Because Spiderslike couldn't manifest his suits powers Lunatic was able to deal a great amount of damage. Spiderslike tried to create illusions to use against Lunatic but with little power they where almost useless. Lunatic having been ordered to kill Spiderslike gravely beat down Spiderslike and would have killed him had the general not ordered him to stand down. The higher ups decided to instead of kill him to use this chance to reprogram like they wanted from the beginning and since the suit couldn't maintain mental protection they figured it would work.
Back at their new base they spent two entire days brainwashing and reprograming him. In the end the
attached an outer shell to the bio-shell the would act as a new weapons system strength enhancer and help to heal the inner layers to back to full strength. This would also suppress the suits connection to him so that it doesn't try and break free.
They even gave him a new cover ID as Michael Barnes a marine who volunteered for the program even changing his hair color and gave him friends and a girlfriend in fact an entire history to keep him docile and controlled. Spiderslike was once again a covert agent and slave to the US government. Yet they missed an angle. The Anansi personality was still deep down inside Spiderslike waiting for it's chance for freedom.
Powers:
Bio-Shell: The nano-tube exoskeleton suit that is attached to spiderslike gives him a number of abilities derived from different arachnid species as well as folklore from Anansi the trickster
- Super Strength: The bio-shell allows him to lift between 10-20 tons under normal circumstances the maximum output the suit will allow him to reach is 50 tons before his body begins to fail
- Super Speed and Reflexes: The bio-shell has connective tissues to both the brain and nerve endings and acts as both allowing enhanced reaction time. He can in most cases dodge bullets even in close quarters. The suits enhanced run speed to clock out at around 80 mph
- Webbing: The bio-shell coverts both it's and it's users waste products into a silken webbing mesh that can shift tensil strengths depending on added levels of proteins and nutrients.
- Shapeshifting: The bio-shell as a whole is very flexible and will mold itself based off the users wishes. This also allows it to produces claws and stingers as weapons. It also allows the suit to be turned into weapons or spiders but only 40% of the suit can be detached anymore and he will begin to slowly weaken and die.
- Flight: The bio-shell can add electro-responsive cells into it's webbing allowing strands to use repelling electro-magnetism for flight. Top flight speed usually max's out at 112 mph
- Wall-Crawling:
- Enhanced senses: The suits has a number of visual and auditory monitoring systems as well as vibrational and pheromone base detection methods. Basically he can generate a 3D scan of his general area via sonar systems and detect threats via high levels of adrenaline. Meaning he pretty much has eyes in the back of his head and knows when someones going to attack.
- Healing Factor: The bio-shell can regrow any organ or limb lost for it's host as long as the amount of damage isn't to serious at one given point. It is possible for it to supplement bodily functions while it repairs the organ for example it can maintain blood flow if the heart is removed or act as a central nervous system if his is damaged.
- Weapons:
- Delusion: Playing again on the trickster angle the shell can emit 3D based life like images that can either be based off anything the user desires. The images have a range of about 15 feet that being the distance he can project and image. Once he exits that length any image he created fades. The great factor of this it is both a chemical or holographic effect. He can cause illusions by altering chemical reactions in the brain and even creating a type of mind control by making me people believe things that aren't true. Yet this effect isn't the best to by used on crowds and he has to push the thought on ever person he meets. The holographic function allows him to create images for mass view however these being just images don't confuse the other senses these can be detected by the simple fact individuals can walk through them or they have no shadow. These also apply to him and he can use the illusions to alter his appearance or more precisely how he is perceived by others. The effect is so strong even vampires and psychic beings can be controlled.
- Intellect: His intellect is far superior to many human beings and he is a high level mechanical engineer able to build and design things decades a head of the standard technology. His mind is also not limited to simply one field and he is highly learned in areas of biology and chemistry. Due to the nature of his connection to his bio-shell he can also access any form of information on combat, fighting, and tactics one can imagine.
Weaknesses
- Extreme cold: Because the cell membrane have a basic arachnid design but only on an evolved scale they have no natural resistance to cold temperatures because spiders are not present anywhere on the globe with arctic temperatures. Although the outer epidermis can usually take the brunt of the freezing it will break and heal far slower than the normal rate to due cell damage from ice crystals.

Personality
Damaged is the best way to describe Spiderslike's personality. He has a type of dry yet quirky humor that is at times attractive and funny, but has no problem being serious angry and caring. This type of humor however is actually used more like a battle tactic than his actual feelings. He's aware that people become distracted when he talks during combat so when he can he annoys them into slowing down and become angry making them easier to defeat. He has a number of deep seeded anger issues of his father neglect, his mothers sexual molestation of him and worse the torture and death of his girlfriend. If it where not for his military training he would have gone insane.

Origin Part 1
Aleksi Makarov was born to Dmitri and Natalia Makarov. Aleksi life was one destined for violence even before his birth. His mother and father moved to America while she was pregnant with Aleksi from Vladimir to Brooklyn. Dmitri was back then an enforcer for Bratva or the russian mafia. He and his family moved to America following his boss Alexander Romanoff to take over their American branch. Dmitri was in some ways seen as the black sheep of the family as his father did not approve of his lifestyle and wanted him to join the KGB as his brother Victor had done.
Despite the issues with his father Dmitri loved his brother greatly and so did Vladimir. He often made trips to American to visit his brother and was their for the birth of his nephew Aleksi. Yet despite his joy at the birth of his son as he grew older he soon found him self distant from his son as Dmitri began to climb in ranks of the Russian mafia. Soon he had even become a high ranking member but kept his connection with Victor a secret as to not ruin his career.
Aleksi as he grew began to focus on his education skills versus physical and rarely did any sport activities. This also caused him to be further ignored by his father. His fathers constant work habits caused his mother to drink and do drugs. Upon discovering that her husband began to have a series of affairs with younger women she soon began to become depressed and erratic.
When Aleksi (now calling himself Alex) became 12 his mother began to have an incestious affair with him both end her sorrow and strike back at her husband. Soon after the KGB was disbanded and many ex members join Bratva Victor joined with his brother becoming on of his enforcers.
His place in America began to help Alex as he was the father figure he missed out on in his life. He was able to tell him the feelings he had about how he in many ways hated both his parents his father for his neglect and mother for her sexual abuse. He also explained how in some ways he hated himself for not being stronger. As such Victor began to train Alex in combat from his time as a KGB agent as well as a Spetsnaz. 7 years later Alex was away at college going to his pred med degree living a life that had almost nothing to do with his family connections. He often spoke with his uncle who had rejoined the russian military and had become a Colonel in such a short amount of time do to his long standing battle record. Alex was even in a healthy relationship with a women named Lacey. He often fought with his father as he wanted him to take a more active role as he felt his age catching up with him and hoped for Alex to be his successor.
Alex of course wanting no part of this but all to destined for war found that he would have little choice in the matter. He goes Lacey's dorm room to visit and as he opens the door he find himself beaten with a bat and kidnapped. He is taken by a rival Bratva family who want revenge on his father and to send him a message. He is forced to watch as they torture and kill Lacey with a baseball bat and rape her dead body. They then get ready to beat Alex to death when he begins to anger his tormentor till he forces him to hit him so hard that he breaks the chair he was tied to. Remember everything his uncle taught him he not only works through the pain but kills all the men.
He saves Lacey's violator for last as he ties him to a chair and after taking a power drill to his tounge and genitals he tortures him for days. The police find the mans body in a dumpster some time later with several tools shoved in his rectum. Still hungering for revenge on everyone who may have been involved in Lacey's death Alex goes to work for his father. He spends the next couple of months working as both and enforced and assassin using everything his uncle taught him and anything knew he could pick up about killing and torture. After weakening a number of his father enemies Alex was working over a member from a rival family and discovers there was never any hit out on him.
After showing them man a picture of who killed Lacey he says that was one of his fathers old enforcers who went to prison but was let out and hoped to get back in good with his dad. Alex furious later questions his father about and after threatening him his father tells him it was the truth. His father fearing his age wanting not only an heir but since without his brother's skills he was losing power without his best killer. He knew Alex had learned everything his brother knew and hoped to get him back into the fold.
Dmitri then told Alex he was a good killer but crappy son and he decided he should just knock so girl up divorce his wife and forget Alex. Alex wanting to punish his father off grabbed a wrench and after hitting him a couple of times tore of his genitals so he couldn't have children and then dragged him naked on the lawn for everyone to see. Now embarrased his father would soon die.
Alex later moved to Russia to live with his uncle but being unsure if he could live a normal life again spent the next six years becoming FSB agent thanks in part to his uncle. What he failed to tell his uncle was that after these years of wetworks killings he was getting tired of simply killing people. At this time super heroes began to appear more and more all over the world. He saw little use for simple killers in a world where men and women who can fly and create thing with their minds could give people hope.
After becoming a human agent working with the super powered team Winter Union Alex was sent on a dangerous mission to hunt down rogue Russian scientist who had gained a number of US secrets and were trying to build their own super soldier serum. Yet the scientist where revealed to actually be a left over terrorist unit that had no plans on turning their serum over to the Russian government. Alex's unit and Winter Union fought and killed most of the terrorist but where unable to find the main scientist together or the serum. Alex found a series of secret tunnels he believed the scientist used but lost radio communication in his search. Finally finding the serum and a scientist he discovered that only one dose had been made and the others where destroyed.
The surviving dose was purposely enhanced with arachnid genes to create a stealthy and cunning killer with super strength agility, adhesive powers, webbing and spatial awareness. Alex told the scientist if he gave him the shot and destroyed the secret base he would let him escape.
The man agreed and after re-establishing radio contact with his team he sent out a fake distress message and set the base to explode hopefully they would assume he died in the explosion. He returned to America living in semi-nice apartment and using money he knew had been hidden by his father and government set up a fake identity as Alex Haynes.
Origin Part 2
Using a stash of weapons and money he left in America he built a suit designed like a spider and began calling himself Spiderlike. He soon began defending the streets of Brooklyn hunting any criminals he could find trying to avenge the lives he took when he was in the mafia and FSB. He soon to his shock discovered his father had survived his embarrasment an decided that he would enjoy making his father suffer some more and targeted a large number of business he had. His father was soon visited by his brother Victor telling him Alex had died in the line of duty and that he promised to Avenge him.
Unknown to Alex the scientist who he let go had later been caught by Winter Union and when questioning him on what happened claimed a unknown agent sent to guard and collect the serum had killed Alex and took the serum for himself. He did this hoping to lessen his own punishment. Victor had seen a news report on Spiderlike and after remembering that the serum was spider based contacted his superiors. He believed that Spiderlike was the agent that killed Alex and requested to send Winter Union to get him claiming him to be a Russia criminal hiding in America.
He wasn't given permission but he lied to the team and deployed them into America anyway. After finding Spiderlike attacking some criminals Winter Union tried to arrest him to find out if he really did kill Alex. Spiderlike ran away from them not wanting to be discovered and sent back to Russia. Thanks to his training and powers Spiderlike was able to escape capture he also contacted Victors superiors and let them know he had deployed the team in America.
They where instantly ordered to stand down and Victor was temporarly taken out of control. Victor soon was told that he would have to return to Russia and get proper permission to hunt Spiderlike but the simple fact that he was able to find and make contact with men above his head made Victor believe he had the right man. He secretly stole a experimental super soldier serum codenamed Red Victory and used it on himself and lost his transport going awol.
He was now transformed into red monster. He was given heightened senses and was literally able to smell Spiderlike and began to track him. As he got closer and destroyed a great amount of the city Spiderlike dressed himself to fight the monster he didn't know was his uncle. The two fought through out the city till he was about to be beaten and realized he couldn't beat Victor now calling himself Red Victory.
Alex soon discovered that he was fighting his uncle as the drug had damaged his mind and a lot of what he was saying didn't make any since. He tried to tell Victor put his suddenly began to lose his sanity and blamed Dmitri for Alex's faux death and went after his brother. Alex recovered from his fight and tried to make contact once again with his old bosses in hopes they would send Winter Union to stop him. They explained that the team was back in Russia and it would take hours for them to return but Victor's transport was still in the area. He told them to meet him so he could try and get Victor back.
Spiderlike reached the transport ship and tracked his uncle via the large heat he was giving off.
He found him just as he was about to kill Dmitri and dropped a tank on his uncle from the transport with him inside. It only took him one shell to gravely wound his uncle. He got out the tank and once again tried to fight him. This time playing on his unstable mental capacity and his memories of Alex causing him to began to lose control. He then jabbed him with a super soldier suppressor drug overloading the enhanced features of his body causing him to pass out.
Another Russian squad and Winter Union showed up and Victor in a state of sanity told Alex to flee and live the life he wanted doing good. He escaped as the team captured his uncle no doubt intent on turning him into a weapon. Alex got away and then broke down in a dark alley just crying about what he had done to the only real father figure he had. He later went to meet his mother and revealed who he was to her. He was their to purge himself of what he thought of her, his dad and more importantly himself and how he planned to bring down everything he once stood for. She gave him her blessing and promised to keep his secret. She begged him to make love to her one more time which he agreed.
He then went to Lacey's grave and told her he missed her and that thanks to her no one will suffer like she did because they have a crazy looking guy in tights to save them. Yet he doesn't know he already has enemies back in Russia Victors superiors are speaking with the Winter Union about the fact that Spiderlike knew their secret contact channels. This caused them to wonder what else he knows and are making moves to arrest him as they begin to realize that Victor may have been right.

Fluid Pressure Manipulation: Like a spider his bodies locomotion was modified to not only function based of muscle movements but the build up and release of fluid pressure in his body.
- Super Strength: Due to the enhance fluid movement he can add extra force and pressure to his muscles allowing him to lift more and hit harder than before.
- Agility: Like with his strength he can build up pressure in his limbs allowing him to basically spring himself higher in the air than before and move his limbs at higher speeds. He can basically dodge bullets with in just a few feet with almost inhuman ease.
- Wall-Crawling
Enzyme Manipulations: Another source of his powers is the ability to cause limited alterations to his bodies enzymes. So of these alterations are possible do to the new ones his spider DNA produces but either way they can be deadly
- Webbing: He can discharge silk lines from his mouth and finger tips to build spider like webs. The strands are very powerful and at their minimum can hold up to 2 tons and stop bullets like modern kevlar. Like with his strength and agility he can eject the strands with such speed and force that a web blast to the face can knock a full grown person out or a net shaped web can send a human body flying around 15 feet.
- Combat Hair: As with some spiders Spiderlike has a the ability to make the hair on his body rigid and razor sharp. He can enlarge and sharpen a hair on each of his digits till they look like talons or needles.The follicles can be coated with a number o enzymes from venoms to poisons to even explosive enzymes that. Like with his other powers he can exert enough pressure to fire the strands at great speeds
- Spider-Senses: His unique and heightened spatial awareness cannot be attributed to one sense. Spiders can pick up different forms of movement and vibration allowing him to pick up even disturbance in air flow. His eyes have much sharper vision even causing his eyesight to equal about 40/40
- Psionic-Camouflage : A chip implanted in Spiderlikes brain can cause a signal to be sent out that interrupts the knowledge processing centers of the brain. Basically it allows him to mentally convince a person that they cannot see, hear, smell, touch or even taste him. High order telepaths also cannot detect his thoughts. Even when someone attempts to detect via an instrument such as night vision or infra-read goggles sonar devices etc. the device will clearly show that he was their minds simply do not allow themselves to believe he is their.
Skills
- Martial Arts: His combat training is some of the most superior of all his agency. A high level master of several arts such a Sambo hapkido, brazilian jiu-jitsu. In fact most of his agility actually came from his martial arts training versus his super powers. In a fight he has even described having a strong ability to slow down the perception of time making combat easier.
- Pain Redirection: His years of mental training from some of the greatest interrogators in the world have made him able to mentally ignore pain on incredible levels. Meaning he can fight with broken bones, bruises and cuts or withstand days of interrogation.
Weakness
- Automatic sensors: His Psionic camouflage effect does not make him invisible to any form of machines as such automated defenses or robots (not many cyborgs as the human brain parts would be effected like any other living being) can perceive him.
- Exhaustion: Due to the way his strength works he doesn't have any enhanced endurance or durability meaning he tires fairly relative to a human. If not for his mental skills in focusing out pain his body would actually tire much faster than a normal persons. His brain can also only hold the psionic camo for long. After 10 mins he will gain a headache, 15 mins a nose blood, 20 mins he will begin ton convulse and then he will no longer be able to hold the illusion. He usually bypasses this by dropping the illusion then reapplying it when needed.
