FINALLY FINISHED MY CHARACTER SHEET FOR MY SPIDERSONA! 💜😭 After quite literally nine months of working on it! Don't expect something as detailed from me ever again though lol.
I'll talk a little about her lore and character wise in this post if you are interested! (Quick TW Since Aph's story deals with quite a bit of death, self hate, suicidal thoughts etc, etc, you get the gist just be careful reading, also heads up both my friends Didi and Nico wrote their spidersonas with mine so their lores intertwine also also heads up for a quite a bit of an age gap since my spidersona is shipped with Miguel sooooo)
Aph Stella or better well known as Constellation Weaver, the Spiderwoman of Earth-117.
Her powers are basically the normal Spider-Man powers with a few exceptions, she is based on stars, starlight, shooting stars etc, so for example her webs are made out of stars holding onto each other like constellations, like stars being made out of fire, her webs are extremely irritating to the normal human skin, the closest injury to it being a quimical burn.
As well as her webs she can charge her stars on the palms of her hands to cause damage to enemies.
Cons to her powers are that she didn't get the normal super strength that everyone else does, instead she got double the resistance, think of it as she is meant to protect not fight, though she can more then handle herself with the villains in her universe.
Like on Madoka Magica she needs a recharge period on her powers or else something horrible might happen to her, though instead of having a jewel like on Madoka Magica, her body slowly gets filled with a star pattern, that's actually why her suit has pieces of her skin open, so she knows she is not overusing her powers.
The city she lives instead of being New York is named Nueva Lunaria, situated in the late 2020s
She is 26 years old, became Spiderwoman at age 21 but all her canon events only started happening a year or two before the events of ATSV.
Her height, like her creator, is 1.56 cm or 5'2 feet.
Came from an emotional abusive household but lived the first 4 years of her life with her grandmother May until she eventually died of old age and she had to go on back to live with her parents.
After leaving her parents' home she quickly moved in with her two best friends since childhood Didi and Nico.
Because of Aph being the oldest she always was a substitute mom to the both of them.
Nico and Didi helped create Aph’s suit so it's an emotional piece for her.
Aph got bitten in her job as a freelance artist for her universe's version of NASA, Aph would take any job that anywhere would throw at her as she needed the money, being the oldest she felt the need to support Nico and Didi through their careers (Both ended up graduating, Nico as an art preschool teacher and Didi as a nurse which helped Aph heal her injuries in the right way)
Aph got bitten in her job by a rogue entity that they had brought from outer space, specifically from an endeavor to the moon, the only way the people in that ship could describe it was a spider.
Aph got bitten while working on drawing said description of the spider for the research team.
Aph quickly quit her job after she noticed she was becoming Spiderwoman because she was afraid of getting experimented on or worse.
From then on she promised to use her powers responsibly and with kindness just as her Nana May would've wanted.
Sadly both Didi and Nico were Aph's canon events.
Nico dies at the hands of the Lizard in Aph's universe, thrown off a building after the Lizard stopped toying with her, Aph tried to catch her with her webs in a panic but because of her injuries done by the Lizard and the injuries that she got from Aph's webs, she didn't survive, she dies on the beginnings of December before Aph's 26th birthday in January.
Aph's birthday on January 17 that year was the only one she has ever not celebrated in her life.
Didi dies on Valentine's day the year that Aph became 26, done with not being able to help Aph fight villains she makes a deal with what she didn't know at the time was the Green Goblin, making her into a praying mantis hybrid that Aph had to defeat.
Aph blames herself for both their deaths thinking they were preventable.
She lives in a shoujo manga/magical girl inspired world (Think Sailor Moon and Madoka Magica)
A lot of her lore was deadass taken or inspired by Madoka or Sailor Moon so bare with me lol.
Because of Didi's and Nico's deaths Aph can no longer pay for the rent for her apartment and goes back to her parents' home.
Her parent's try to arrange a marriage for her with the Doc Ock of her universe and that's her last straw.
She plans to commit suicide that night but never gets the chance.
That night a orange portal appears in her childhood bedroom, everything floating up and then falling back.
From there emerges Miguel O'Hara recruiting her to the society.
She cuts his speech and says that yes she will join him without hesitation as she sees this as a signal from the universe to keep living and do good in other places.
Much like Gwen she pretty much abandons her universe and lives full time in Earth-928 on the society thanks to Miguel.
Miguel finds out about what she was about to do in her universe and makes sure she gets help.
What Aph doesn't know at the time is that their are Spiderman versions of Didi and Nico in the society, Didi is the adoptive daughter of Miguel and Nico as well as Aph can't go back to her universe.
Miguel hides this information from Aph to protect her but she finds out anyway, they talk it out and Aph understands why he did it, he wanted to make sure Aph didn't try to see this Didi and Nico as replacements of her own.
She eventually is alright enough to be friends with them though.
Miguel in my AU is 35.
Aph and Miguel have a 9 year difference.
Aph and Miguel quickly become close because they feel as if they both lost people in their lives that were important to them in similar ways.
Since Aph is on Nueva York at least for the near future, like the bracelet that Miles wears when he comes into the spidersociety, Miguel turns Aph's star shaped earrings into stabilizers so she can be there without the clunky watch (Though she still needs it to go to other dimensions)
Miguel also quickly finds out that Aph has basically been fighting blind as a bat, she wears glasses on her daily life another perk she didn't get from the spider, but she didn't know how to add the graduation that her glasses have to her mask so she had been fighting blind.
Miguel finds out by seeing her fight, seeing how she normally overshots her hits, when he finds out he berates her but quickly fixes the problem and updates her mask.
Aph makes sure Miguel takes proper breaks and often brings him food from the cafeteria or pastries she makes herself.
She hangs out with him a lot on his lab since she doesn't like that he is cooped up there with no one to talk to or even just have in his presence.
After a heart to heart and Aph basically confessing her feelings to Miguel after she almost died , they get together and Miguel gives Aph a promise ring that like her earrings stabilizes her without the need of the watch.
They call each other mi luna y mi sol.
When the events of ATSV happen, Aph is reluctant to go to Miles' side, but she knows that the person she once knew as her partner is doing something wrong that he'll eventually regret.
She eventually goes back to Miguel after an apology to Miles and him fixing everything up.
In the future Miguel and Aph have four children including Didi, they had difficulties having them surprisingly nor because of the difference in dimensions but because both their genetics are FUCKED in opposite ways, at first they thought they would have none, then oldest biological daughter, Minerva, Minny for short came along after they almost gave up, eventually four years later they had Javier, Javi, who was a very sickly boy so they thought they would never have another one because the other two were already a fucking miracle, and finally six years later when Aph is 38 they have Mateo, the youngest and quite literally their oops baby since Miguel is 47 by then lmao.
AND THAT'S IT! That's Aph's story and design at least for this post, I'll post more about her story and drawings as I make them, I'll also be posting old ones that are in my procreate, mainly with Miguel.
And one last thing props to my friend who made the design of Aph's logo on her bow! Originally she wouldn't have one since I didn't know where to put it but my friend came through, though they didn't want to be tagged I still want to credit them in some way!

Bro I'm so sick rn I wish Miguel was real so he could come and cuddle me and give me my medicine and make sure my water bottle is full so I don't have to stand up and press my head against his chest and rub my back and chest with vaporub while telling me everything is gonna be fine and help me blow my nose on a tissue since it's all sniffly on one side, about to cry rn from how bad I feel I just need head and neck scratches
He was one of the easiest and more comfortable to draw from the prompts but still I was struggling to get his likeness, originally I was gonna redraw a comic page but decided to do my own thing, honestly I liked how he turned out, I really like comic Miguel, maybe not to the same level as ATSV Miguel but he still up there in my list of favorite spidermans, he is just so fun to follow around during his comics!
What's aph's favorite comfort food and does Miguel try to cook it for her when she's upset/ after an argument?
-❤
Aph and her comfort foods
(We will ignore that Miguel doesn't look good here, I redid his face like 5 times and couldn't get it right)
Hi Blue!!! You gave me the opportunity to talk about something I've been meaning to talk about which is:
How does Aph recharge her powers?
Well like any normal human being rest and food are important, but for her it's ten times more important, in order for her powers to not go over the threshold of overwhelming and damaging, so after using then she has to be in a state of as much relaxation as possible as well as hydrating herself and getting herself food.
Aph like me (duh she is my sona lol) prefers to have food outside of her home as her comfort foods, she sees it as a rare treat since she grew up not being able to buy food out that much besides when she would work at restaurants, anything with fries or something she can dip in ranch, marinara or honey mustard are her favorites.
She loves sweets, loves getting crepe cakes and boba, anything with lavender, matcha or chocolate, she likes the very flowery flavors.
Her go to orders tend to be, either pizza with a side of fries, a chicken burger with fries and a milkshake or a California roll with cream cheese added maybe rangoons or fried tofu if she is feeling specially hungry.
With something light as a dessert like a drink or a crepe cake.
Miguel makes sure to have her favorite places ready on his phone to call or order right before a mission so the food will get there when they get home.
Or sometimes they will go out, make it a date if Aph feels up for it, sometimes they will bring Didi along and their children when they eventually are born to have a family outing.

I just bought a whole bunch of Miguel merch unexpectedly (RIP my wallet) would anyone like to see the haul? Originally I was gonna only get one thing but I didn't expect the AMOUNT of Miguel merch I was gonna find
Hi everyone! I'm back to give yall some of the art I made during inktober, didn't do too much but I did the Migtober list by @/torres_artist on insta in case yall wanna take a look at it, I won't post them in order instead I'll be posting whenever I finish each one :3
First one I finished was grunge! I had no idea what that style was at least in men but I did my best looking it up, it was mainly old pictures of Keanu Reeves that I got as reference though, on this one I can imagine Miguel waiting on Aph to go to a date love my sillies, this one wasn't too difficult, the main thing was just looking what this fashion style intailed.
