MIGUEL O'HARA APPRECIATION

SECRET IDENTITY:
Miguel O'Hara - Alias: Spider-Man!

ORIGIN:
In the year 2099, Miguel O'Hara is a brilliant geneticist frustrated with a corrupt corporation called Alchemax and their increasing control over his city. After reluctantly testing Alchemax's genetic imprinting technology on an innocent subject who was killed in the process, Miguel was deemed a liability and drugged by his employer, Tyler Stone, in an effort to keep him with the company against his will. Seeking to escape the evil corporation's influence once and for all, Miguel attempted to utilize Alchemax's own tech to cure the effects of the drug. Unknown to Miguel, the procedure was sabotaged by a competing coworker in an attempt to kill him. Although he managed to survive the process, Miguel's DNA was permanently spliced with that of a spider... forever transforming him into the Spider-Man of 2099!

POWERS AND ABILITIES:
Miguel O'Hara possesses the proportionate strength, speed, stamina, agility, and reflexes of a spider. His enhanced DNA allows him to regenerate cells at an accelerated rate, sight far beyond the standard visual accuracy of an everyday human, move at an expedited speed that often leaves his pursuers stunned and seeing double, and he even ages at a rate slower than that of a typical human. Miguel has a set of spinnerets on his forearms, both of which excrete organic super-silk webbing that can be utilized in many ways; from swinging across buildings, to restraining or securing people and items. On the tips of his fingers and toes, Miguel utilizes retractable talons that assist him in climbing virtually any surface in the manner of a spider, as well as reinforcing his already super-human strength. Miguel also sports razor-sharp fangs which have the ability to secrete an immobilizing venom that can paralyze his foes!
