@Chaotic Chao: My suggestion is go with a character that you have the urge to write for. Also, you might want to check out what others are doing and see how your character can fit into the bigger picture so that your character isn't alone on an island.
We can only have one character correct? So, I don't think I'd like to live out the whole roleplay as just a villain, unless I can pull off a Lethal Protector type thing.
@Dedonus My idea for Eddie Brock is that the original origin happens to him. Spider-Man catches the real Sin Eater, while Eddie gets his job taken for catching the fake one. Except in this version, Eddie becomes a drunk as his wife leaves. He starts growing a hatred for Spider-Man.
In drunken rage, Eddie finds his wife's new house and tries to bust in. A neighbor comes over to try to stop him, but Eddie, to enraged to know what he's doing, shoots the neighbor in the head and the police soon come and arrest Eddie for murder.
Eddie's now in jail, but gets picked by OsCorp for a project they are working on. OsCorp has made a symbiote, known was Venom that would be used for soldiers in battle, it was a black goo. Eddie was forced to be a volunteer, and they injected the symbiote into him. Eddie turns into Venom, and starts a rampage in the test facility. Imagine Wolverine's Weapon X massacre but without claws. The symbiote gave him abilities (He doesn't have the organic webs though, since the symbiote didn't copy that from Spidey, at least yet.)
Eddie escapes into the city, and only has one goal: Killing Spider-Man.
I seriously cannot think of someone else, because I really actually don't want one of my main characters to be just a Spider-Man villain.
Ugh, this is so hard. Plus Ben is off the list of possible characters, because Rin practically told me that I can't be Ben, because she's being Ultimate universe's Spider-Woman.
And now thinking about it, I don't have the humor to be Deadpool, and you just can't be a serious Deadpool.
@Chaotic Chao: Due to recent conversations I have had with other players, I am opening Spider-Man up to competing applications. That means that after everyone has submitted an application, we will have a vote to see who gets the Web-Head.
@Chaotic Chao If you are looking for a character to play that would give a link to both the Avengers and the insanity that is the Spider-based portion of this RP, I would recommend Doctor Strange. Primarily because I would love another Sorcerer for Judas to scuffle with.
@Dedonus I don't want to play Spidey, I'm going to be a little hung-up on playing Judas and Kaine. That being said, whoever does get him, I will want to talk and work out how we make this work to its best.
Peter Parker never really had a good memory of his parents, Richard and Mary Parker. His Aunt-in-law, May Parker, and his Uncle, Ben Parker, only told him that his parents just dropped him off their one day and left because they had something serious they had to do. After so, they went missing. Off the globe, and by now, are probably dead. But since Uncle Ben and Aunt May were the only parent figures he had, he loved them. And they loved him. He was grateful that they didn't treat him like an extra mouth to feed, and actual treated him like a son.
Peter was not like most of the other kids. As matter of fact, instead of playing in the playground, Peter would be using his magnifying glass to examine the grass. He was very intelligent for someone his age, and unfortunately because of that he attracted more bullies than the normal kid would have. One of these bullies were someone Peter had knew since 2nd Grade, Eugene "Flash" Thompson.
Peter was more of the lonely type, he had no social life. If he could, he would stay in his room reading books about animal and plant cells, or biology. At age 11, Peter had started to question more about why his parent's were missing. He would ask Aunt May and Uncle Ben questions about it, they'd stop to think of something, or they just flat out would act like they couldn't hear the question. He eventually gave up on getting answers, but started to get more curious in his teenage years.
High school was not that better than elementary and middle school, especially because Flash Thompson now had a gang that was practically devoted to making Peter's life miserable. He never let them get to him though, he always held his head high and ignored it the best he could. He made a few friends, but they were better than having none. Their names were Harry Osborn, Liz Allen, Mary Jane Watson, and Hobie Brown. Life was getting better, as he even earned a job at the Daily Bugle to take photos for J.J. Jameson, who was a jerk, but Peter looked over that.
On the field trip to Oscorp. Peter was amazed by the technology, and went around places he shouldn't have. When Harry told him that a test subject spider that was red and blue in a certain room, and that he should not go in it. Peter just couldn't help himself, at all. He sneaked into the room, and stared at the Spider in amazement. What was its purpose? Why did exist? When he tapped the glass box where the spider was in, he had knocked it down by accident. He freaked out, and left the room hoping that he wasn't caught on the camera and that Harry wouldn't figure it out.
Suddenly, when he caught up to the rest of the group. Peter had felt a bite on his arm, he instinctively had hit the red and blue spider off. It plummeted to its death after falling from his arm. Suddenly after getting home, his head started hurting and his vision had gotten blurry. He then fell unconscious. He woke up at least a few hours later, as Aunt May was calling him up for dinner.
It didn't take long for Harry to find out the spider was missing. And when he had checked the security tapes at his home, he was furious to learn his friend didn't listen to him. That the spider has gone missing. He didn't talk to Peter for a long time, and Peter knew why. This was the point where their friendship was lost.
Peter had realized that he didn't need his glasses anymore, and that he suddenly had abs. It didn't take any longer for him to realize that he could stick his hands and feet on walls. Not to mention the fact that he realized he could dodge Flash's punches, and pushes. Which gave Peter the satisfaction to humiliate Flash Thompson a numerous amount of times.
After getting in a fight with Flash Thompson, Peter got sent home. Uncle Ben picked him up from school, and gave him a speech. He said that with great power comes great responsibility. Peter didn't care that much of his speech though.
He realized, he could use these abilities to earn money. He made himself a costume; a red hoodie with a spider logo, a red mask, gloves, his web shooters, jeans, and some red shoes. He called himself, the Spider-Man. He became a fighter, and he always won the fights. He was a big celebrity now, but he didn't want anyone to know his real identity. One day after coming from a wrestling match that he had won, a man was chasing a robber but ended up loosing him. The man had asked Spider-Man to help him, but Spidey ignored him and said it wasn't his problem.
Until it was..
A loud gunshot was heard down the street, and decided to investigate. When Peter got there, he went in total shock. Ben Parker, his uncle was dead, a bullet right through the heart. Peter almost instantly weeping, as he lifted Uncle Ben's arm, asking him to wake up because he didn't want to believe the truth: Ben was dead.
Peter and his Aunt became devastated. This had hit Aunt May harder, as she was broken by this news. Peter had started to take care of Aunt May, because she didn't have a job, he payed for her things with his own money from the Daily Bugle. Peter's friends started becoming worried for him, but he did his best to be okay. One night, Peter snapped and created himself a better Spider-Man suit and mechanical web shooters, and he became the Spider-Man.
Peter had went after criminals, that he suspected was the killer. Usually cracking jokes and insults to offend them, and to block off his emotional state.
Once Peter found Ben's killer, he was in shock to realize that the killer was the same man who Peter had let get away. As much as Peter wanted to kill him, Peter didn't and called the Police to arrest him. As the police came to the scene, Spider-Man was still there and they raised their guns at him, asking him who he was and to get on the ground. The only thing he said to them was, "Who am I? Just your friendly neighborhood Spider-Man!" And went off into the night.
Ever since that night, there were news reports of a red and blue vigilante decreasing the crime rate in the city.
Powers and Abilities:
Super Strength - Spidey has the ability of super strength. He can hit harder than the normal human, and he could pick up a car. He could kill a person if he had hit them hard enough, he just limits his strength because he doesn't like to kill people. It is possible that he could maybe even lift something like a helicopter, or stop a train. But this would take a lot of stamina out of him, and he'd really need a breather. Basically the natural abilities of super strength.
Enhanced Agility - Spidey could make any pro athlete run for their money. When he was bit by the radioactive spider, it gave him great agility. He can do the usual back-flip, front-flip, and other tricks. The thing is, he can do them 10 times better than anyone. He can even make his own moves that would even make an athlete drop their jaw. He can do a lot of tricks in the air as well, entertaining anyone watching him.
Wallcrawling - He can do what ever a spider can. And this is actually literal, from the radioactive bite he had the ability to climb walls. And he can do this without any gear at all. It's his hands and foots that can do this. This is because he was given micro structures in his hands, sort of like a spider. They are basically tiny sticky hairs that help him climb. It is a little freaky, but is invisible to the human eye. And if someone gave him a handshake, they wouldn't feel the structures.
Web Shooter - As the smart guy he is. Peter created himself web shooters to help him swing around town. It is very good way for transportation. He hides the web shooters under his costume, and has a tiny little hole where the webs can come out. He fires the web by doing the iconic hand pose. This isn't useful just for transportation, he can blind enemies by shooting webs in their faces, giving him time to strike. He can also wrap someone in a web to subdue them.
Spider Sense - This ability is for him to recognize when trouble is coming his way or coming around him. This helps him a lot to dodge enemies attacks, and even dodge bullets. The ability was well, amazing, spectacular even. His spider sense could even work if a long distance sniper is aiming at someone or Spidey himself. A very helpful ability.
Sample Story Arcs:
We Are Venom - A crazy man who has hate for Spider-Man, merges with the Venom symbiote and somehow figures out Peter's identity, and goes after him and his loved ones.
Something Sinister - A group of six infamous villains team up as the Sinister Six. And their main goal for now is to take Spider-Man out of the question, for good. And when Venom shows back up and tells them who Spider-Man is, they know exactly who to go for...
The New Avenger - Spider-Man becomes an Avenger, one of the biggest dreams he had in quite a while.
Clone Saga - After getting a sample of Spider-Man's blood, Ben Reilly (or Jackal, depends if we're going full-on Ultimate.)proceeds to create spider-clones to do his bidding.

Sample Post:
"UUGH!" The security guard yelled out, as he got blown away into one of the pillars in the bank.
The crowd instantly screamed in panic, as people started running from what they were doing. More security guards showed up, aiming their guns. They didn't get a chance to fire, as a vibration blew them back with very lethal force. "GET ON THE GROUND, NOW!" The man in the yellow mask yelled, he aimed the weapons attached to his arms at the accountant at the desk, keeping from them pushing the alarm under the desk.
"Please don't kill me.... Please.. I have kids!" The accountant yelled while sobbing loudly, hoping that the man in the mask would spare her. A security guard behind her, wounded badly reached for his pistol. The man in the yellow mask turned around and the security guard bit his lip as he saw his fate ahead of him.
*THWIP* *THWIP*
"What the!?-" The man in the yellow mask's weapons were covered in a web substance. He turned around to see where the webs came from, and his suspicions were correct. The wall crawler was on the ceiling of the bank, staring down at the criminal.
"That's a very flashy costume you got there!" Spider-Man yelled as he dropped down at the criminal, the criminal jumped out of the way and fired his vibrating weapons, blowing the webs off. He then fired at Spider-Man again, this time blowing down one of the pillars as Spider-Man swiftly dodged the attack. "Well you're not having a good mood today. Wrong side of the bed?"
"So, uh what do I call you? Yellow Man? The Vibrator? Wait, a second that sounds.. - WHOA!" Spidey got blown back into a wall. The criminal smirked under his mask. "You can call me Shocker, and I'm going to be the man that squishes you!"
"Man, if I had a nickel every time I heard that." Spider-Man muttered, while swinging a ball of web into the Shocker's face, knocking his aim off balance and forcing him to shoot one of the pillars in the bank.
Spidey web slung out of the way, and grabbed a woman and kid out of the way of the collision, who screamed louder than he expected. "Do you know how much that pillar costed? You are in sooo much debt." Shocker turned his vibrating weapons to full blast, "I'm getting tired of you, insect!" Shocker said, climbing up the second story of the bank.
"Aw. I thought we had something special!" Spider-Man then web slung from the ceiling into the Shocker's chest, throwing the Shocker off the second story of the room into a desk. The desk was leveled, and the Shocker groaned sitting up, in obvious pain.
Spider-Man dropped down. "Oh play it off, it's only a few bones- UURGH!" Spidey got blown back into the wall. The crowd that was in fear gasped at the sight.
"Got you where I want ya, eight-legged-wannabe-freak." He charged his weapons, about to hit Spider-Man again. But Spider-Man jumped up and webbed Shocker's weapons, causing the vibrations to deflect at Shocker instead. Shocker went flying across the room, into a pillar, down for the count. The muffled sounds of an police siren were heard, getting closer.
"Now that, was a shocker. Zing!" And Spider-Man fired a web into the ceiling, climbing up to the vents. Soon enough, he was gone.
@Dedonus I know I'm not accepted, and may not be actually. But still, give me some feedback please.
Wow, that kinda came out of no-where. Shit. Well, maybe we can get something similar going in the future. Dammit, why do all of the ones that I get excited for fail before they even start?
