Some pretty simple information about them (some of Spider-Man’s stuff is head canon!)
SPIDERLING
Real Name: Adrian Benson
Current Codename: Spiderling
Past Codenames: Iron Spider (briefly while using Peter’s Iron Spider suit), Spider-Venom (briefly twice while bonded to the Venom symbiote)
Species: Human
Citizenship: 🇺🇸 American
Gender: Cisgender Male
Date of Birth: December 16, 2010
Date of Death: October 12, 2018 (Victim of the Snap; resurrected by Hulk in 2023) (time-traveled to 2018 from 2025)
Age: 15 years old
Affiliation: Midtown School of Science and Technology | Avengers (2.0.)
Status: Alive
Orientation: Pan (in all forms of attraction)
Powers:
Super-Strength: Much like Peter, Adrian possesses incredible strength that seems to be proportionate to a spider. He proved himself to be powerful enough to take on Thanos in hand-to-hand combat, but it may have been a result of the additional psionic energy he was adding to his punches and kicks. He was able to easily punch and severely wound Green Goblin even his ginormous dragon-like form. He’s stopped speeding buses, cars, planes, trains.
Super-Speed: Adrian possesses super-speed similar in level to Peter. He often will speed himself up using telekinesis and venom blasts.
Superhuman Agility: Adrian is extremely agile, beyond what any normal human could ever achieve.
Enhanced Reflexes: Adrian has proven himself to have very good and superhuman level reflexes even better than Peter’s. He’s been able to stop bullets midair telekinetically, dodge attacks, and much more.
Spider-Sense: Just like most versions of Spider-Man, Adrian possesses a sixth sense that warns him of potential threats. Out of all the Spider-Man variants, his Spider-Sense is probably the weakest. Due to childhood trauma, it often perceives random safe things as life-threatening. He usually doesn’t like to use it because his trauma often causes it to malfunction and distract him in battle. He’s mostly learned to tune it out, but sometimes it will creep through his barrier if something triggers his past trauma.
Wall-Crawling: Adrian has the ability to adhere to walls, ceilings and other surfaces. He can also choose which parts of his body he wants to stick, as shown when he ran up a building using only his feet.
Psionics: Due to also being an alternate version of Scarlet Witch as well as Spider-Man, Adrian possesses powerful psionics. These originally started as mere yellow-gold energy blasts he called venom blasts, but this power eventually evolved into telekinesis in a level as high as (if not higher) than Scarlet Witch. He also often uses the ability to fly. The energy can form itself as golden blasts, streams and waves. It will also sometimes manifest itself in a lightning-like appearance similar to Miles Morales. He often projects the “lightning” through his webs after attaching then to his opponent, then electrocuting them. He can form powerful force fields that were powerful enough to throw Thanos back when he struck it and even to protect himself from an airstrike from Sanctuary II while holding Thanos midair and peeling his armor and skin apart. He’s been shown to form weapons out of pure psionic energy, such as swords, daggers, whips and claws. He also often uses his psionic energy to enhance his strength to the point where he could go hand-to-hand with some of the strongest creatures, from Thor to Thanos. His irises will often glow yellow when he is experiencing severe negative emotions or is using his powers to their full strength.
Chaos Magic: Adrian possesses limited Chaos Magic that he learned from Scarlet Witch. Chaos Magic is the manipulation of reality itself, but Wanda mentioned he only had the power to do one spell, which he used to resurrect Peter, so he no longer has the potential of Chaos Magic.
Eldritch Magic Manipulation: The full extent of Adrian’s abilities of Eldritch Magic Manipulation is unknown as he only used this power twice, both times to battle Thanos during the Battle of Earth. He’s used a duplication spell and a binding spell at the same time. The duplication spell allowed him to make dozens of copies of himself, and the binding spell allowed all of his copies and himself to release magical golden rope-like tentacles that they wrapped around Thanos, burning and scarring portions of his tough skin.
