(*=Linked)
ROLE-PLAYING NOTES
By his own admission, Eddie was never a particularly functional or mentally adjusted man, though he frequently made efforts to better himself. Obsessed with and desperate for success, as a child and into his adulthood he stole and lied in order to get the acknowledgement he desperately craved and further his career. His self-loathing and obsession with protecting the innocent stem from a traumatic incident where he accidentally killed a young child as a teenager, which his father went to extreme lengths to cover up - including brutally beating him when he announced his intent to plead guilty. His Catholic upbringing significantly influenced his actions, in particular as Anti-Venom, and for a time he came to see himself as having been chosen by God to cleanse Earth of the symbiotes.

Exusiai's Notes This revamp is a bit easier to write up. As the Anti-Venom 'symbiote' is actually part of Brock's biology, meaning it is not a separate being. I think I like this version of Brock better to be honest.
