Background

Pietro Maximoff

Pietro and his twin sister Wanda lost their parents in a terrorist attack when they were eight, leaving the siblings as each other’s only family. In Sokovia, Pietro worked as a pizza delivery worker while Wanda worked at a coffee shop; together they earned less than two thousand euros per month. 2

When Xu Mo coerced Wanda into marrying him by threatening Pietro’s safety, Wanda concealed the truth from her brother. Pietro initially believed Xu Mo had deceived Wanda and arrived intending to confront him, but Xu Mo’s wealth, polished manner, and extravagant wedding preparations convinced him that the marriage was genuine. 2

Pietro Parker

Pietro Parker is a high-school student who lives with Uncle Ben and Aunt May. Initially timid and anxious about authority and retaliation, he is nevertheless intensely protective of his family and close friends. 155 158

After receiving spider-derived abilities, Pietro reveals his secret to Xu Mo because he wants validation from the friend he trusts most. His early ambitions remain modest: he seeks money for a convertible so he can impress Mary Jane. 160

Personality

Pietro Maximoff

Pietro is protective, proud, and stubborn. While imprisoned by Kingpin’s gang, he endures beatings and refuses to reveal anything about the one hundred million dollars connected to Wanda, choosing death over endangering her. 8

He is also independent and reluctant to accept charity. After Xu Mo rescues him, he returns the money meant for him, finds work in Queens, and trains on his own rather than depending on Xu Mo’s financial support. 12

His confidence grows alongside his physical strength, though he remains excitable and competitive. He imagines winning endless Olympic gold medals once his speed and strength improve, yet he is nervous and academically insecure about attending college. 30 46 47

Pietro Parker

Pietro Parker is earnest, excitable, and romantically naïve. He is easily distracted by his crush on Mary Jane and initially pursues underground boxing for a relatively small prize rather than exploiting his powers more effectively. 155 160 161

Despite his immaturity, he has firm moral limits. He rejects Xu Mo’s suggestion of robbery because he fears prison, hesitates over keeping stolen money, and attacks Flash only after Flash threatens Uncle Ben and Aunt May. 158 161 162

His trust in Xu Mo is absolute. Even when Venom warns him to flee from Xu Mo’s speaker trap, Pietro resists the symbiote and helps tear it from his own body because he believes Xu Mo would not harm him. 220

Abilities & Skills

Genetic Origin Energy Cultivation

• Exceeds 800 kg of strength after roughly a month of preparation. 30
• Approaches 20 m/s running speed before formal cultivation is considered complete. 30
• Reaches Junior Warrior-level physical ability, including lifting a vehicle over a ton. 43 47

Spider-Derived Superhuman Abilities

After the laboratory spider bite, Pietro Parker develops extraordinary physical abilities.

Resistance to Venom

Pietro Parker retains control of himself while bonded to Venom.
