Venom (Eddie Brock) Regen

[Monarch_Laciel]

Currently, Venom is listed as having High-Mid Regenerationn. The only justification for this from what I've seen is that it bonded with Deadpool for a few moments and would have his healing factor as it can mimic people's powers.

Except I don't believe this is correct. The Symbiote can mimic spiderman's abilities thanks to its shapeshifting acting as the wall crawling and webbing, and the prolonged usage allowing it to take on Spiderman's spidersense. I have seen no examples of the symbiote simply gaining the powers of a host after a few minutes of contact - it did not gain the powers of Ms Marvel, Red Hulk or Groot when it bonded with them. While I can see the symbiote itself having High-Mid regen, I don't believe that Venom has it. The most he would have would be Mid, from regenerating from having his head cut in two.

I think that this seems reasonable. I have also never seen Venom or Carnage demonstrate Regenerationn of that level.

The Carnage Symbiote is inside Cletus' bloodstream, meaning that he can form it from a single drop of blood and reform it from a single scratch.

 

[The_Everlasting]

Whoops, didn't see this was only for Venom, my mistake. Still, the rating does apply to Carnage, just only the Symbiote, Cletus' best regen feat with it is regenerating from being torn in half by Sentry.

 

[Monarch_Laciel]

So the symbiotes all probably have Low-High regen themselves, but the beings Carnage and Venom only have Mid

 

[The_Everlasting]

Yeah, pretty much.

 

[CrossverseCrisis]

Ooooh....might as well go change it like what was done with Carnage, yeah.

Though i feel we should specify why it's different that why as well as the level of it in detail.

 

[Monarch_Laciel]

How about for Venom something like:

"Regenerationn (Mid, regenerated from having his head bisected), Symbiote has Low-High regen (should be comparable to the Carnage Symbiote)"

And on Carnage's

"Regenerationn (Mid, should be comparable to Venom), symbiote has Low-High (able to regenerate from a drop of Cletus's blood)"

 

[Antvasima]

@Monarch Laciel That seems reasonable.

 

[CrossverseCrisis]

That works, yeah.

 

[The_Everlasting]

@Laciel

Well, Carnage has a Mid regen feat of his own (Regenerating from being torn in half by the Sentry), but otherwise it seems fine.

I've been looking to fix up Venom's profile anyway.

 

[Promestein]

I found more Carnage regen feats.





Mid Regenerationn seems absolutely consistent.

There's this, too. It implies it killed him but he's not dead so.

 

[Antvasima]

Okay. Thank you for the information. Does anybody wish to edit the profiles?

 

[Promestein]

I've already done so.

 

[Antvasima]

Okay. Thank you for the help. Perhaps we should close this thread then?

 

[Promestein]

Yeah, I'll close it.
