Spider-Kid

The Amazing Spider-Kid

Fighter's Physical Appearance
James Powell, Spidey's alter ego, stands at 5'8, bordering on 5'9, weighing just under 200 lb. With brown hair and light skin, he looks pretty much like a normal teenage boy. However, he usually takes to wearing his red and blue spandex suit that Spider-Man had made famous for forty years now.

Personality.
Spider-Kid is a nervous young man in the awe inspiring world of magic and other various types of sorcery and super warriors. His sarcastic sense of humor usually has him cracking jokes and using outdated slang, the likes of which has not been seen for a long time. His moral fiber is unshakable, and he will put his own happiness aside for the sake of others, to his downfall.

Fighting Style
Not being trained in any types of magic, weaponry, or even a fighting type, the Spider-Kid merely picks up things from here or there. He knows that breaking your nose can really hurt, and that a swift poke in the eyes really stings. He uses his great flexibility, enhanced strength, agility and speed to fight, not having a style but using street brawling, boxing, professional wrestling and martial arts to fight.

Fighter's Powers/Abilities/Skills:
1) Enhanced strength and stamina: Spidey has enhanced strength, which allows him to lift about 10 tons, without any sort of emotional infliction or adrenaline rush. His stamina is also much greater than a normal human's, allowing him to take intense heat, great amounts of damage, and allows him to hold his breath much longer than an average Joe.

2) Enhanced speed and agility: Spider-Kid's speed was greatly focused on while he was in the petrii dish, and his speed is proportionately greater than his strength, and his reflexes are one hundred times that of a normal human. His agility is also great, and his flexibility can have him bend in half or lift his legs even with his head without any sort of pain, or something wacky like that. He also has a great sense of balance, being able to use two fingers to hold himself in the air upright.

3) Spider sense: Spider-Kid has the same type of instinctive danger sense that the original Spider-Man has, telling him when danger approaches, that which cannot be seen. Its strength depends on how alert he is, being if he's distracted its very weak, but if he's focused it makes him almost invincible.

4) Sticking to walls: You know that guy that they say can stick to walls in the comic books? Well... uh, that's Spider-Man, but Spider-Kid can also stick to walls just as well. When firmly attached, which can be done within seconds, Spider-Kid can not actually be pulled off by sheer force, as the surface that he's attached to would most likely give out first. His entire body can do this, and his suit is thin enough that he can do it all over.

Weapons/Equipment:
1) Web shooters: Well yeah... Spider-Kid's web shooters are his wrist mounted pressurized adhesive firing devices. They can hold three of Spidey's web carts and have a socket to release his chemicals into. The trigger is located on his palm, and requires direct pressure from his middle and ring fingers to activate. His web shooters are capable of spinning his 'webbing' in many various ways.

2) Webbing itself: Spider-Kid's webbing is a glue-like adhesive, with a great amount of tensile strength. It can be fired from Spidey's web shooters in a thick glue like spray, thin webline, a wider web strand, which is like a cobweb one might find in the corner of one's house, just much stronger. Spider-Kid can craft it into rocks or bats, or many different things.

3) Web carts: Spider-Kid's webbing is stored in small cartridges that are held on his belt, or on the shooters themselves. The webbing is pressurized to store a great amount in them, and have a small switch that can cause them to combust, releasing all the webbing suddenly.

4) Chemicals: His experiences in the field of chemistry have given him several good ideas regarding his webbing. He usually holds a pack on his belt filled with vials of chemicals that can do some pretty amazing things.

5) Sedative stingers: Used only a bit by the original Spider-Man, Spider-Kid uses stingers, sometimes held in his belt or fired from his two fingers, his pinkie and pointer on each hand.

Fighter's History/Life Story
Back when cloning was a big thing, Miles Warren, the Jackal, created a clone apart from his other clones. A secret weapon to use when his other plans failed, it was not found until later, by the Green Goblin. Miles got a bit creative with this clone, and altered his genes to that of fifteen year old Peter Parker, with the same physical attributes as the Spider-Man, who was ten years older than him.

The Green Goblin let the Jackal find the boy, and faded away as the Jackal trained him for six months. It was not particular healthy training, in that it was more like torture. He was locked into a cell, fed questionable food, and was generally made miserable. The Jackal wanted to have the "Spider-Kid clone" defeat Spider-Man to satisfy his jealousy and evil ambition.

That would never happen though as Spider-Kid had the same moral fiber of Spider-Man, which had been weakened, but not broken. He escaped from the cell and fled from the Jackal, taking the Spider-Man costume and some equipment from the mad geneticist's lab. The Jackal still follows Spider-Kid around, watching him in the proverbial shadows.

Spider-Kid met an old man named James Powell, who took him in and showed him a great deal of kindness. Spider-Kid was quite disgusting to look at after not having bathed or cut his hair for six months. So he stayed there, cleaned up, and ran errands for James. When returning from an errand he found James dead, and evidence that an old foe had committed the crime.

The clone pulled several legal strings and is legally known as James Powell now. He used the Daily Bugle to fund his way to the UFF Island, in return for exclusive pics of the Tenka Ichi Budokai. Since then, he hasn't really done anything as a civilian, but instead has concentrated on being the Amazing Spider-Kid. The Jackal and the Green Goblin are after him, and the Jackal has done many things to his mind, giving him nightmares and nearly driving him insane. It will take all of his will to remember about the responsibility that he has with such great power...
