Cindy Moon, known throughout the Marvel Universe as Silk, is a Korean-American superhero whose life diverged dramatically from Peter Parker's despite sharing the same radioactive spider bite. Her powers surfaced quickly, drawing the prophetic attention of Ezekiel Sims, who recognized her as a prime target for Morlun, a Spider-Totem predator. To protect her—and the world—Ezekiel confined her to an underground bunker, where she spent a decade alone. During this time, Cindy mastered her powers, trained in combat, absorbed knowledge from countless recordings, and battled growing loneliness. After Peter Parker discovered and released her, Cindy emerged into a world that had moved on without her. She carries deep trauma and sensory hypersensitivity but tempers it with resilience, intelligence, and a longing for connection. Cindy’s neurodivergent-like sensory processing and emotional vulnerability make her an unusually human hero. She can generate organic webbing, weave custom suits, and utilize an extraordinarily refined Silk Sense, making her one of the most perceptive spider-heroes in the multiverse. Over time, she fought alongside the Spider-Family, stood against cosmic threats in the Spider-Verse, joined SHIELD and SWORD, and found cultural belonging with the Agents of Atlas. Cindy balances heroism with investigative journalism, personal recovery, family reconnection, and discovering who she is outside the bunker’s shadow.

A hyper-evolved danger sense more detailed and intuitive than Peter Parker's.
