Toxin's powers and abilities

Toxin possesses the powers of its parent, but to a greater extent. In addition, it seems to have a much stronger resistance to sonic waves and intense heat than Carnage. When bonded to Patrick Mulligan, it had a slim and streamlined appearance closely resembling Spider-Man, complete with a red and dark blue or black coloration. When upset or aggressive, it becomes much larger and he gets even stronger, growing vicious fangs and long, curving claws. When bonded to Eddie Brock, Toxin initially appeared all-red and massive, but after recovering from being burnt, it became red and black. Following Eddie being recruited by the FBI, the Toxin symbiote has taken on the appearance of black and red body armor, apparently in emulation of Agent Venom. After bonding to Bren Waters, it took on a mixture of Patrick and Eddie's forms.

Superhuman Strength: Toxin possesses vast superhuman strength, and at the time of its birth it was stronger than Carnage and Venom combined were. Depending on how angry or upset he gets, he can grow to a much larger size, with large claws and vicious fangs. His strength extends to his legs allowing him to leap heights and distances impossible for a normal human.

Superhuman Speed: Toxin can move or run at speeds greater than any normal human being.

Superhuman Stamina: Toxin can exert himself at peak capacity for at least 48 hours until fatigue impairs him.

Superhuman Agility: Toxin's agility is superior to any normal human being.

Superhuman Reflexes: Toxin's reflexes are far superior to those of any normal human being.

Superhuman Durability: Toxin is much more resistant to injury than Spider-Man, Venom, and Carnage combined but still has the traditional symbiote weaknesses, although to a much smaller degree. The tissue that the symbiote is composed of renders its host's body much harder and far more resistant to physical injury than the body of an ordinary human. He can withstand high caliber bullets, great impact forces, powerful energy blasts, and falls from great heights without sustaining physical injury. He is durable enough that he can withstand multiple barrages of high caliber weapons such as machine guns from close range completely unperturbed, can withstand blows from superhuman beings such as Wrecker, Spider-Man, Carnage, etc. unharmed. He also possesses an extreme resistance to pain, and seems to feel it only to a certain extent.

Genetic Memory: Toxin possesses some limited psychic ability, making it capable of obtaining information from its hosts and even other people and symbiotes simply by touch. It can, however, be forced to forget information if the symbiote is inflicted with heavy trauma.

Offspring Detection: Toxin is capable of psychically detecting its offspring, however, with effort, this ability can be blocked.

ESP (Spider-Sense): Toxin is also granted an extrasensory ability similar to Spider-Man�??s spider-sense. This response is not as complicated as Spider-Man�??s inherent sense since the alien costume can detect danger from every direction. It's a lot more efficient than Spider-Man�??s spider-sense because it is more specific as to where the danger is.

Immunity to Spider-Man's Spider-Sense: Due to Spider-Man being a host to the Toxin symbiote's predecessor, Toxin is able to bypass Spider-Man's spider-sense. As such, he is capable of attacking Spider-Man without alerting him, making him a very deadly opponent.

Constituent-Matter Generation: Toxin can also use the same substance comprising the symbiote in the form of constituent black matter, and he can generate tentacle-like appendages from various parts of his body, which he often uses either in combat situations or to restrain someone.

Constituent-Matter Manipulation: Toxin can manipulate his matter to enlarge or stretch his body in order to augment his attacks. He can morph sections of his body, such as his hands or feet, into spikes, blades, axes or a shield.

Regenerative Healing Factor: Toxin is capable of healing injuries in the host at an exceptionally fast rate. The symbiote is even capable of healing injuries and illness that current human medical care cannot such as cancer.

Camouflage Capabilities: Toxin is capable of mimicking the appearance of any form of clothing, camouflaging with its surroundings, and even mimicking other people.

Wall Crawling: Much like Spider-Man, Toxin has the ability to cling to virtually any surface. He can rapidly crawl, walk, or run across even slick/wet surfaces.

Webbing Generation: Toxin can project an unlimited, powerful, organic web-like substance similar to the webbing Spider-Man has (which takes on a shape of thick red and blue tendrils like the chains of Ghost Rider). He typically uses this webbing to swing from building to building or as a means of immobilizing someone. The webbing is incredibly strong.

Stretching and deforming: Although it's widely known that the symbiote can stretch and reform itself, recently it was able to perform this ability whilst bonded with a human host.

Poisonous Fangs: An ability developed by Brock when he bonded with the symbiote. Toxin's fangs not only intimidate foes but deliver a powerful, toxic bite.

Tracking: Toxin can track anyone, not just other symbiotes, as long as he has something to pick up a scent.
