Origin
Desiring to give more to the world Ezekiel Sims engaged in an arcane South American blood ritual which granted him arachnid powers.  The ceremony diverted magicks which were not intended for him and attracted mystical forces of opposition.  Pretending to be an ally of Peter Parker, Ezekiel sought to divert his enemies onto Spider-Man.

After Spider-Man successfully repelled countless supernatural attacks, Ezekiel knew that he would personally have to sacrifice Parker to the mystical forces in order to save himself.  Physically  defeating Spider-Man, Ezekiel ultimately could not defeat his most power asset - his soul.  Realizing that he squandered his abilities Ezekiel ultimately atoned by saving Spider-Man and sacrificing himself to the forces which gave him his powers.
