Ever since becoming a symbiote host they forsook their human name and became Phobos, living in a world inspired by both earth-42 and earth-35525 where Miles Morales' parents are dead and the Sinister Six rule the streets. At the beginning Phobos used their power merely for survival but, after being saved in their civilian form by Miles, they bow to help him however they can, having fallen in love with the young hero. Unfortunately, they ain't quite sane so it becomes an obsession that leads them to kill anyone that dares harm him and to kind of kidnap him (they don't call it that because really where else would he go? his uncle killed his parents! they are just making sure the kid is safe!!)
Phobos' pronouns are they/them but in a plural sense, so they say "we/ours" like venom lol
Anyways they are very much a deranged yandere and a deplorable human being, but they are also kind of a self-insert to somewhat ship myself with my darling 2D wife, y'all are invited to the wedding in my basement <3
I know none of you know who Rabies is since I haven't posted them before BUT they are my venomsona who stuck to a raccoon and would mimic rabies (hence the name) to keep humans away because they didn’t realise being weird colours and having six glowing eyes was working just fine... and they are one of my fav Marvel ocs :3
You have no idea how happy drawin' this made me... it was a little silly and my Mum called me out for stimmin' at least twice 😅

ANYWAYS! LOREEE!!!!
Even as an Eridian they are still named Rabies; they look like a raccoon and act a little feral and have a fear of water... Grace was running out of ideas.
They/them pronouns because Rabies likes the idea of being plural despite not being multiple Eridians (was a symbiote in a past life) and Grace noticed Rabies would say things like "We are doing this, we fix" but do the fix on their own-- referring to themself with 'we' or 'us' pronouns.
Smooth claws but very bumpy carapace. Their "tail" is a deformed leg missing its claw along with having a very stiff joint and therefore kinda useless except for the whole intimidation pose, they were born this way. This thicker and stiffer leg affects Rabies' balance and so they stumble occasionally but can get around easily enough after years of working out how to use this leg as a kind of tail which helps correct their balance. Clumsy rock <3
I also like the idea of the malformed leg giving their "seeing" some kind of wonk effect occasionally because the receptacles or however Eridian’s hear their environment is a bit messed up on that leg, so it’s like a human getting vertigo... because I get vertigo a lot with no idea the cause and what are ocs for if not projection?
At first Grace thought Rabies had no markings or carvings or anything he'd seen on other Eridians that he'd learned was for things like status/title, name, family/clan, other simpler things... Until he saw Rabies in the dark and watched in awe as all the marking over them became visable to him between the bumps and ridges he just thought were part of their carapace to begin with. I like glow in the dark rocks :3
Rabies is an engineer on Erid but a "higher position" so kinda like Rocky's boss but they are bestfriends so neither really think of themselves as boss and worker. I don't know if I want Rabies to have gone with Rocky and they be the only ones to survive to Tau-Ceti or have Rabies be the head engineer left on Erid... but either way Rabies was very excited to head up the new project of a human bio-dome with Rocky's mate who I headcanon'd as a biologist of some sort or even an environment type scientist, basically they are in charge of the new human's habitat. Rabies, through working very closely with Rocky, Grace, and Rocky's Mate to make sure Grace will survive on Erid, was accidentally drawn into their queerplatonic/polycule/situationship but they don't mind. (Also, also BloodyMary on the Rocks is very fun)
Oki! Buh-byeee!!
(I don't like Rocky Mate’s name for very personal reasons, you don’t have to know why but I just have issues with the name, okay? Which sucks because I really like Project: Hail Mary, I might have come up with a name of my own for them… Apollo is option I thought of... I haven’t watched the rocky movies.)
🍃🌱[SOLD]🌱🍃Lichen Symbiote finally finished for @ squirrellywhirl on instagram! I really struggled with this design mentally, and gave up on one entirely, but I very much like where I got it in the end!!
