Unlike the Symbiotes of Earth-616, these are innately evil. They're also able to morph their bodies to be able to stand up, walk, and fight with superhuman speed, strength, and durability. The Symbiotes can even spread themselves out, with multiple versions of one symbiote running around at once. [144] Earth-TRN688 [ ] Venom and his descendant symbiotes have been shown to be adept at controlling their coloration. This allows them to take on the appearance of normal clothing, to provide highly effective and complex camouflage, and to even disguise their hosts' physical features. [189]

The ancient language of the symbiotes is rendered using the same glyphs as the Demonic Script of Limbo.MARVEL UNIVERSE IN 6-INCH SCALE: Look for other Hasbro Marvel Legends Series figures with Marvel Entertainment-inspired characters (Additional figures each sold separately. Subject to availability.) The symbiote that would eventually become Venom was purportedly the 998th generation of a lineage of symbiotes, [29] hatched on the planet Klyntar from an egg, [30] though it might be far more ancient. [31] Bred to be an Agent of the Cosmos, it bonded to a Kree soldier named Tel-Kar, who later erased its memories of him when they were forced to separate. [32] The being that the symbiote subsequently recalled as its first host was an inhabitant of an icy planet who proved to be an unworthy host filled with hatred and cruelty. The host used the young symbiote to carry out a genocide against his homeworld, leaving it a barren wasteland and corrupting the symbiote with rage and bloodlust. [33] At some point the symbiote joined a group of corrupted Klyntar who used their hosts as chattel, and was labeled as deranged due to its desire to form a single, strong, symbiotic bond with its host and protect them. [34] The symbiote was placed in a prison canister and supposedly condemned to death by disintegration. [26] When bonded to a superhuman host, a symbiote can interface with their genomes and physiology to imprint their unique powers and abilities into itself, granting subsequent hosts access to those powers. [157] Symbiotes can also bond to inorganic material, letting them interface with, augment our outright invade machinery as sophisticated as the Ironheart and War Machine Armor's or a Kree Empire battleship. [116] [158] [159] Certain kinds of Klyntar also have the effect of deifying they're hosts depending on the class of which the Symbiote was created to fit. In the case of Gorr the God Butcher, his abyssal partner was the very first and most favored of Knull's creations. [168] Withholding greater attachment to the true power of the living abyss than most any other Klyntar ever created. An effect which greatly extended his lifespan as well as granted him insurmountable power in his own right. [173] Carnage surpassed its "father" Venom by being the first symbiote shown to produce weapons from its limbs. It does not shoot webbing, but strands of tissue. There is some speculation that this is due to the symbiote's gestation on Earth. [39]

Despite having copied Spider-Man's powers, the Venom Symbiote of Earth-616 and its progeny are not considered Spider-Totems. [214] Whether this holds true for non-extraterrestrial versions of the symbiotes is unknown. Additionally, in spite of this declaration, versions of Venom and Carnage still appeared alongside the various Spider-Men and Women that were depicted in the Web of Life and Destiny in Spider-Woman (Vol. 5) #3. Octavia Otto also recruited a female Venom to help her and the Web-Warriors combat the Electro-Verse. [215] The Toyark › Marvel Toy News › New Symbiote Spider-Man Marvel Legends Revealed New Symbiote Spider-Man Marvel Legends Revealed Symbiotes that have fully bonded with their hosts have a more biologically complex symbiosis with their hosts, [180] and can share thoughts and memories with them. Carnage has also been known to hide in its host's bloodstream. [181] The symbiotes have undergone a number of retcons, including needing to absorb phenethylamine and/or adrenaline to survive, turning their hosts evil, and being a spacefaring empire. Many of these retcons were aimed at further developing the character of Venom, who went from a villain to an anti-hero. For example, the retcon establishing the symbiotes as a benevolent peacekeeping force was intended to appeal to new fans who did not know that Venom was ever a villain and simply perceived the character as "a hero, a good guy with a super cool costume that can do amazing things" instead of a monster. [216] Symbiotes have the ability to process breathable gases when the host normally cannot breathe (for example, in water or space). [91]By virtue of having partially bonded with Spider-Man, Venom and its descendants all have spider-like powers, including the ability to cling to surfaces and produce organic webbing. [157] Most can also avoid detection by Spider-Man's "spider sense". [177] [178]
