Super Powers:
Superhuman Strength: The Scarlet Spider possessed the proportionate strength of a spider, granting him superhuman strength. He was capable of lifting 10 tons or more when under extreme duress.
Superhuman Stamina: Spider-Man is able to exert himself at peak capacity for several hours before fatigue begins to impair his performance.
Superhuman Durability: The composition of the Scarlet Spider's skeleton, inter-connected tissues, and nervous system had all been enhanced. His bodily tissues were somewhat more durable and resistant to impact or trauma than an ordinary human, although he was certainly not invulnerable. While his body was tougher than an ordinary human, he could still be injured in ways comparable to an ordinary human. He was killed when impaled in the back by the Green Goblin's goblin glider. However, if injured, his body is capable of repairing itself somewhat faster than an ordinary human is capable of.
Superhuman Agility: The Scarlet Spider was extraordinarily limber and his tendons and connective tissues were twice as elastic as the average human being's, despite their enhanced strength.
Superhuman Reflexes: The Scarlet Spider's reflexes were faster than an average human by about a factor of 15 (he was often able to dodge bullets, if he was far enough away). His practical reaction time was at least a dozen times that of a normal human. In combination with his spider-sense, the speed of his reflexes allowed him to dodge almost any attack, or even gunfire, if he was far enough away.
Superhuman Equilibrium: The Scarlet Spider possessed the ability to achieve a state of perfect equilibrium in any position imaginable. He seemed able to adjust his position by instinct, which enabled him to balance himself on virtually any object, no matter how small or narrow. He had developed a unique fighting style that made full use of his agility, strength, and equilibrium.
Wall-Crawling: The Scarlet Spider possessed the ability to mentally control the flux of inter-atomic attraction (electrostatic force) between molecular boundary layers. This overcame the outer electron shell's normal behavior of mutual repulsion with other outer electron shells and permitted 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 was so far limited to the Scarlet Spider's body (especially concentrated in his hands and feet) and another object, with an upper limit of several tons per finger. Limits to this ability seemed to be psychosomatic, and the full nature of this ability has yet to be established.
Spider-Senses: The Scarlet Spider possessed an extrasensory "danger" or "spider" sense which warned him of potential immediate danger by the manifestation of a tingling sensation in the back of his skull, and links with his superhuman kinesthetics, which enabled him to evade most any injuries, unless he cognitively overrode his automatic reflexes. The precise nature of this sense is unknown. It appeared to be a simultaneous clairvoyant response to a wide variety of phenomena (everything from falling safes to speeding bullets to thrown punches), which had given several hundredths of a second warning, which was sufficient time for his reflexes to allow him to avoid injury. The sense also could create a general response on the order of several minutes: he could not discern the nature of the threat by the sensation. He could, however, discern the severity of the danger by the strength of his response to it. The Scarlet Spider's spider-sense was directional and could guide him to or away from hidden weapons and enemies. Sudden and extreme threats could cause his spider-sense to react with painful intensity. The Scarlet Spider could also sense and dodge attacks directed randomly or by a computer. Using his spider-sense to time his enhanced reflexes, the Scarlet Spider could casually dodge attacks up to and including automatic-weapons fire, provided there was sufficient distance. His spider-sense was sufficiently well-linked to his reflexes to the point that a threat could trigger them even when the Scarlet Spider was asleep or stunned. His spider-sense had helped him preserve his secret identity since it alerts him to observers or camera when changing into or out of his costume. The spider-sense did react to those who Ben does not consider to be a threat. The Scarlet Spider could choose to ignore his spider-sense, and distraction or fatigue diminished its effectiveness. The Scarlet Spider's fighting style incorporates the advantage that his "spider-sense" provides him. An interesting sidenote was that, because Ben was not the host of the Venom symbiote, his spider-sense did not see the Venom symbiote as himself, and therefore triggered his spider-sense.
Learned Abilities:
Bio-Chemistry
Photography
Equipment:
Webshooters similar to Spider-Man's.
Impact Webbing; a modification of the normal webbing that covers a target upon impact
Stingers; used to temporarily incapacitate foes
Weaknesses (Must Have): Secret Identity: Like that of Peter Parker, his secret identity is the most important part about him. If someone where to figure it out, they could lead them back to Peter.
Fatal Wounds: Unlike that of a normal human, if a clone is hurt in a fatal wound, he will turn to dust on the spot, and seize to exist.
Background:
Prof. Miles Warren, Alias: The Jackel, had become obsessed with Gwen Stacy, and when she died he tried to clone her. It took him a while before he got it right, but because he wanted Gwen to feel safe, he decided to creat a Peter Clone, because of the fact that she was dating him when she died. When he got the Cloning process of Parker correct, he noticed that he had powers. He could climb walls, and had great reflexes, along with others. With that, he learned of Parkers identity. After a while, Jackel had come up with a sceame to kill spider-man, who had foiled him in the past.
One night, Jackel had captured Spider-Man, and locked him in a room with his clone. When they awoke, they fought each other, both thinking they where the real Peter-Parker. When Jackel showed his true intentions, it seemed they where both doomed. Jackel had set up a bomb in the ware-house that would kill both of them. The Original, along with the clone escaped. The Clone followed Peter home, and noticed how he had some gaps in his memory, so he left for San-Fransico. (vemon was residing there for a time)
After surviving the battle against Spider-Man, Reilly spent the next five years in exile from New York, believing himself to be a worthless clone until he met a friend, Seward Trainer, who inspired him with confidence to be his own person. Returning to New York when he found out about Aunt May's failing health, Ben came face-to-face with Peter and had to explain his reasons for returning.
Personality :He is just like Peter. When in his civilain clothes, he can be timid, and shy, though when he is Scarlet-Spider, he becomes a quick-talkin', insult spewin', son of a gun.

Brief Sample Roleplay
Ben was swinging fast, and hard. He had just made it back to New York, and was ready to face what he had to, so he could see Aunt May, and find out why she was dying. As he was swinging he heard a cry for help. Being who he was, and where he came from, he had to stop and help.
He lowered himself onto the roof, and took a gander to see what was going on. Like in most New York Alleys, it was a mugging. He frowned (though no one would be able to tell.) and jumped down to help the man.
"Now come on, that's not fair." He said, landing behind the two thugs, "Let's even things up a little." He grabbed one of the thugs by the scruff of the neck, and threw him into the tash-can nearby. "Aw, no I feel ashamed, a spider vs. a low-life. Oh well, You can't have it your way everytime." He webbed up the second thug, and waved his goodbyes to the man who was being mugged. "Call the Police," he said, "tell them that the Scarlet-Spider sent you."
