Spider-Gwen

Spider-Gwen's powers and abilities

Powers

Spider Physiology Gwen's powers were similar to those of Peter Parker of the Prime Marvel Universe, after a Radioactive Spider -- genetically engineered by Cindy Moon based upon the genetic template of alien spider parasites -- bit her, granting superhuman strength, speed, toughened flesh, and numerous arachnid-like abilities. Her powers included:

• Wall-Crawling Gwen's exposure to the mutated spider venom induced a mutagenic, cerebellum-wide alteration of her engrams resulting in the ability to mentally control the flux of interatomic attraction (electrostatic force) between molecular boundary layers. This overcomes the outer electron shell's normal behavior of mutual repulsion with other outer electron shells and permits the tremendous potential for electron attraction to prevail. The mentally controlled sub-atomic particle responsible for this has yet to be identified. This ability to affect the attraction between surfaces is so far limited to Gwen's body (especially concentrated in her hands and feet) and another object, with an upper limit of several tons per finger.
  
  
• Superhuman Strength Gwen possesses superhuman strength enabling her to press lift approximately ten tons.
  
  
• Superhuman Speed Gwen is capable of running and moving at speeds that are far beyond the natural physical limits of the finest human athlete.
  
  
• Superhuman Stamina Gwen's advanced musculature produces less fatigue toxins during physical activity than an ordinary human. This allows her to exert herself physically for much longer periods of time before fatigue begins to impair her.
  
  
• Superhuman Durability Gwen's body is physically tougher and more resistant to some types of injury than the body of a normal human. Her body is more resistant to impact forces than anything else. She can withstand great impacts, such as falling from a height of several stories or being struck by an opponent with super strength, that would severely injure or kill a normal human with little to no discomfort.
  
  
• Superhuman Agility Gwen's agility, balance, and bodily coordination are all enhanced to levels that are far beyond the natural physical limits of the finest human athlete.
  
  
• Superhuman Equilibrium Gwen possesses the ability to achieve a state of perfect equilibrium in any position imaginable. She seems able to adjust her position by instinct, which enables her to balance herself on virtually any object, no matter how small or narrow.
  
  
• Superhuman Reflexes Gwen's reflexes are similarly enhanced and are possibly about 40 times greater than those of an ordinary human. In combination with her spider-sense, the speed of her reflexes allows her to dodge almost any attack even gun fire if far enough.
  
  
• Spider-Sense Gwen has a sixth sense that typically alerts her to danger, although it has proven unreliable. This was most likely due to the damage sustained by the web of life and destiny, rather than a relative weakness of the power when compared to other spider totems.
  
  

Gwen lost her powers as a result of Cindy Moon from Earth-65 de-powering her with her Power Glove, but exhibits similar capabilities as a result of having bonded to the Venom symbiote to become Ghost-Spider.

Abilities

Skilled Detective Gwen has a proclivity for analytical thinking and detective work. She is also the daughter of a police captain, thus she knows some police protocols and methods.

Skilled Fighter Gwen is a skilled freestyle fighter. However she learned most of her moves from Kung-Fu movies; according to Cindy Moon, Gwen does not know how to throw a proper punch.
