Harry's childhood is..hard to discuss, his father genius that rivals someone Tony stark's intelligence, but Harry didn't get that intelligence, nor did he inherit his mother's tenacity.. he didn't inherit anything from either of his parents, outside of the illness his father suffered, it was illness that lead to the body petrifying over time, as well as muscle atrophy at a young age, Harry… was weak and in his eyes, and in his father's words, he was a disappointment, Harry's Father still loved him but Harry could never ignore the disappointment in his father's eyes.

Mary Jane “MJ” Watson

Age: 17

Sex: female

Alias: N/A

Powers: none

Background: Mary Jane is… strange, she originally was just classmates with Peter and the two never really interacted outside of Algebra class. However MJ still seemed to be rather interested in Peter as at first they become friends, but as time goes on they grow closer, and despite Peter constantly vanishing whenever danger comes Mary Jane isn't phased… which is probably because she knows Peter is Spider-Man by that, she just never confronted because she didn't need to, she didn't know every aspect of his life and she wasn't exactly going to be able to be around him all the time, she wished he'd tell her so she could act surprised but she wasn’t. Yet after Gwen's death Mary Jane does her best to help Peter out whenever she gets the chance to, not by pitying him but instead by helping him learn that even if those we love go, we can still fight to see a tomorrow where no one else has to go through that. To not let pain weigh you down but instead push your will and desires further. Perhaps that's why she and Peter eventually start dating, but does it matter why? Well not to her.

The side cast:

America “Ami” Chavez

Age: 18

Sex: Female

Alias: Lady Liberator

Power: America can create star shaped portals that can lead to any place she desires, though most often it leads to a pocket dimension where she keeps a variety of tools, from a shield back during the days of Captain America all the way to a bat she spray painted to have stars.

Background: Ami was a kid from New Jersey, her moms weren't exactly big fans of the city so they decided to move to Queens New York. This is where America discovered her powers, as she loved New Jersey, so when she was feeling one day she created a portal on accident, that lead to her favorite shaved ice store, over time she developed her powers and while not truly becoming a vigilante she certainly became well known in Queens, a kid wearing old Captain America merchandise with a mask and goggles going around and basically playing hero, however she crosses paths with Peter when he was on patrol and she decided to go cause a ruckus, they managed to have a friendship as they swapped stories at night on top of a roof every Friday sharing a hot dog. She isn't a constant in Peter's life, but when she does show up the two tend to have fun.

Felicia Hardy

Age: 18

Sex: female

Alias: the black cat

Powers: Felicia has.. a strange variety of powers, she is most commonly in position of the totem of the Maneki Neko or “the lucky cat” which greatly enhances her fortune and seems to even twist fate to make it so she comes out on top… unless someones will is stronger in which case it's up to Felicia's sheer skills. She is also in possession of the tiger totem, which grants her increased strength, the cheetah totem, which amplifies speed, and the panther which connects her… to bast, the goddess worshiped in wakanda and one who at first offers no aid to Felicia but eventually the totem grants her foresight and the ability to hide her presence.

Background: Felicia comes from a long family of cat burglars, not because they desired wealth but because they loved the thrill of the challenge. She follows this especially. However she at first does it under the tutelage of her father, before he accidentally steals from the king pen... and dies because of it. Now she not only steals because she enjoys the challenge, but also steals documents that can send the king pen into prison if black mail doesn't work. When she meets Peter the two have an extremely strong chemistry and even in their masked attire they still have that chemistry, albeit felica is more flirty with Spider-Man than she is with Peter, but the two still are friends, perhaps that is why she eventually goes from just a crook to someone more interested in stealing from other crooks, though she refuses to be a hero despite how much it frustrates Peter.

J. Jonah. Jameson

Age: 34

Sex: male

Alias: N/A

Powers: none.

Background: Johnathan Jonah Jameson is the director-in-chief of the daily bugle and Peters boss. Jameson has a distaste for vigilantes after a former vigilante turned rogue and ended his wife's life. Which explains why he constantly insults Spider-man, yet his relationship with Peter is.. strange, he was a friend of Uncle Ben and Peter's father, so he decides to offer Pete a low profile but decent paying job at the bugle as a photographer, and eventually he begins to respect and somewhat care for the boy, and tries to give him advice when Peter's life starts to hit a low… However Jameson eventually discovers Peter is Spider-Man, and is at first hurt but the two do still have a firm connection.

May Martha Parker

Age: 36

Sex: male

Alias: N/A

Powers: none

Background: May Parker is Peter's aunt and so far his only remaining relative. While she isn't a major focus her presence keeps Peter in reality, as she gets on him about his tardiness when getting home, or when going to school, or even forgetting his homework, but she still shows care for him. As she unintentionally becomes Peter's rock, and while she will never learn about Peter being Spider-Man she doesn't question the idea that her nephew is doing good in the world… She may also be dating Jamieson after a few years of grieving her husband but Peter doesn't need to know about that.

The rogues gallery:

Doctor Conners

Age: 35

Sex: male

Alias: the lizard before turning back to normal

Powers: due to Conners creating the first strand of the goblin serum that was meant to cure Harry and Norman from their illness, and bring back Conners arm, Conners unfortunately suffered the side effect that turned into a lizard man hybrid, able to crawl across all surfaces, extreme strength, and regeneration Conners for a time becomes one of Spider-Man's greatest opponents.

Background: Conners was someone who nearly suffered the same affliction as Harry and Norman but managed to get his arm amputated, however he still wished he never had to suffer that affliction nor lose his arm, so he was easy to convince by Norman Osborn to create a cure for the affliction, along with this he is also Peters biology teacher and is his biggest supporter when it comes to Peter as a regular person, even writing his letter of recommendation.

Otto Octavious

Age: 65

Sex: male

Alias: Dr. Octopus

Powers: Otto is psychologically linked to a pair of six metal tendrils that he uses to propel himself at greater speed, they also grant him extended reach and the ability to lift objects that he normally couldn't… as well as a high pressure beam of water that he stores in the tendrils that is so dense it send anyone 20 feet away.

Background: Octavious is someone Peter trusts deeply, he was his professor and at first the one who helped him design the early form of web shooters, which were originally a proposal of Peter's that was supposed to be used by construction workers to spray an adhesive that would allow the structure to hold more soundly, as well as being able to flip to another setting to release a high pressure beam of water. However, Octavious was an aging man, his body already began to fail him, to the point he would be in a wheelchair at 70, if not a thinking potato at 75. Otto did not want that to be his fate, so he would ask Peter to help him build their greatest creation yet, an exoskeleton that would allow even someone with Gorgon's disease to move again, however it was still experimental, and by the time Otto and Peter would finish… Otto would be trapped in his own body, so he rushed and attached it to himself early, it worked, but the exoskeletons central ai wasn't, it was linked into his mind but it was corrupted due to the fact it wasn't finished, and soon Otto went mad, as he began creating its tendrils, stealing from Peter's web shooter design Otto created his notorious mechanical tendrils as his thoughts weren't his own, it was something darker… something evil.

Norman Osborn

Age: 52

Sex: male

Alias: the green goblin

Powers: due to the effects of the first version of the goblin serum Norman's body was altered to be almost demonic looking, his body growing and being covered in scales, his arms becoming bulkier and more reptilian, with claws and the ability to rapidly regenerate. As well as the fact the mutation advances further and further until eventually Norman has a pair wings on his back and the ability to spew fire. No one knows how the goblin serum affected him this way but it did. As well as destroy his mind, all that can be seen is the vindictive, destructive, and cunning green goblin.

Background: Norman was a wealthy and intelligent man, his business almost as profitable as stark industries however to fully understand why is to understand Norman's predicament, Norman suffered from Gorgon's disease, a virus which slowly petrifies your body to the point you can't even blink, as well as intense muscle atrophy, which makes a man weaker than even a child, Norman was the keeper of this disease, it killed his wife, and it was going to kill him and his son, so he started making risky moves, buying out businesses, using his intelligence to Kickstart his own business all to afford a researcher to create a cure for his disease, however Norman would get his cure… but only the first type, it was meant for something small, like a rat, but instead he chugged down the entire serum as his condition got worse. It worked, for the first few days it worked, his body moved fine, his muscles were actually developing, he could live again! But then the muscles grew faster, his body grew stronger, overflowing with new life, he couldn't stop changing, he couldn't stop mutating, and eventually, he lost himself to a new consciousness, one that bore his face but was not him. God help him, god help Harry.

The story line map:

Ok so… this story is ambitious, without a doubt and it's gonna be a bitch to deal with normally, ya can't just throw in everything at once, so this story is going to follow a few story lines (I honestly wish I could include more stories such as a superior Spider-Man inspired story line… BUT THIS AINT COMICS SO SUCKS TO SUCK I GUESS!)

This story is split up into seasons where it actually tries to treat the story as Peter's hectic life so here's the plan.

Also before I truly begin, the web of fate and the individuals associated with it or in general tend to be involved with Spider-Man on the more mythological scale are at least only going to show up in later seasons like season 10 maybe, because the game plan is to start small and eventually go up towards the more complicated stuff as Peter grows older and eventually passes the torch onto Miles, I am not kidding when I say I think too much.

Season 1 or “the origin”: this is the beginning of Peter's story, introducing Peter, May, Harry, Eddie, and Gwen, with the main villain being Dr. Conners becoming the lizard, it starts off with Eddie and Harry having no powers and Peter just beginning to be Spider-Man (episode one would have uncle Ben alive so the audience can actually grow to care about his and Peter's dynamic… until episode two which immediately punches the readers in the gut.) We would see snippets of Conners being pressured by Norman to finish making the cure to Gorgon's disease soon. Conners finishes the second draft of the cure but decides to test it, stupidly deciding to test it on himself, this causes the experiment to work… but also his body to transform, becoming the lizard as now the rest of the arc has Peter trying to find a cure for Dr. Conners while also having to deal with more low tier villains such as shocker. It concludes on Conners being saved but catching the attention of much more notable villains, as Peter takes the first step in being Spider-Man.

Season 2: this is where Peter starts interacting with other supers, specifically America Chavez and Felicia Hardy. With Peter and Gwen's relationship being the focal point as with season it was Peter learning to be a hero. The man villain for this season isn't really anyone in particular, as this is to set the stage for what will eventually become the usual for Spider-Man… Jameson included as well as Peter working at The daily bugle. However this is where we get the first few scenes of Norman finally becoming the goblin, as norman decided to check in on Dr Connor's progress with the serum only to not find him and instead the first draft of the formula.

Season 3: this is the beginning of the green goblin arc as Harry's father suddenly goes missing so Peter begins investigating all while trying to balance it with him dating Gwen. Speaking Gwen, she eventually joins in after hearing reports of people going missing at night with the only trace of them being a strange scattering of green scales. This will also finally truly introduce dr octavius but before he becomes a villain as he is one of peters old professors who asked him for help. However the main focus and villain of this season is the green goblin, who's treated more like a cryptid in this arc as all Peter and Gwen can find that are clues is whispers and rumors, until finally Peter faces off against the goblin managing to hit it hard enough to temporarily knock it back and have Norman become the central consciousness, but only for enough time to have Peter realize who the goblin is, and the horror that comes with it.

Season 4 (part 1):

season three was the beginning of the goblin arc and this is sorta the end of the arc but not in the most satisfying way, as this is the season that has the death of Gwen Stacy.

During the past three seasons, Peter has constantly tried to keep in the dark on his secret identity, and when he is dating Gwen it really begins to show the issues that will emerge as after Peter discovers who the goblin he's unable to talk to his friends as if he did he'd be putting them in danger completely unaware of the fact Gwen has been investigating the goblin as well.

As the entire arc goes on Peter finds out what Gwen's been doing while also accidentally revealing his identity to Gwen as both have mixed emotions.

Peter is worried about Gwen getting herself killed while also happy that he doesn't have to hide his identity from her anymore while Gwen is in a similar boat and is happy that Peter is trying to do good like her but also she floored that her boyfriend didn't tell her about his secret identity (mostly on the emotional sense as Gwen does get it but doesn't stop a part of her from getting a little mad at him)

So they both after finding out each other's identities decide to compile what they have. Once they have all the info they need, they go to doctor Connors (more accurately Peter does while dressed as spidey) and this is where they manage to get the cure for Norman.

Now with the plan set Peter lures in the goblin as he intended to trap him in webs while distracting while Gwen hit him with the cure. But as always nothing goes to plan, as the webs break the goblin is freed, and just as Gwen manages to stab the needle in between the scales… the goblin grabs her before flying off, with Peter right on their tail, heading towards a bridge and well-

The expected happens, Gwen tries to finish saving Norman, the goblin throwing him off her, sending her plummeting towards the ocean, Peter barely managing to get the cure injected into Norman, before switching his focus to Gwen, firing a web towards her and just as it grabs her-

Her neck snapped, the velocity she was falling at and the sudden stop was too much force… she died. As that ends the first part of season 4.

Season 4 (part 2):

The second part picks up right where the first left off, Norman reverting to normal, cured, and Peter having to retrieve Gwen's body, only for Eddie to show up just as Peter had gotten onto the side of the road.

The rest of the season is the grief, Peter coming to terms with his failure, Eddie mourning his sisters death, blaming spider-man for it, Henry getting his father back but at the cost of his friend… as Peter becomes consumed by grief while Eddie seems to only grow more distant as he tries to find and bring Spider-Man to justice.

This is where the symbiote finally makes its debut as it emerges in a similar fashion to how it did in the 90’s show did, a space ship crashing, fire surrounding potential putting the crews lives at stake, and Peter even while grieving still answers the call, helping save the crew as unbeknownst to him the symbiote attaches itself to his costume, weakened by the flames.

When Peter discovers the symbiote he's amazed seeing it as a bit of an upgrade. The symbiote for the arc is unbeknownst to Peter feeding on his emotions, absorbing parts of his memory, bonding with him… while also amplifying the parts of Peter that are unhealthy, his anger, his shame, his sadness, throughout the arc, Peter becomes more and more aggressive, even getting in a fit with Eddie because Eddie was talking about Spider-Man being a monster just like Jonah said.
