Gwen Stacy

Gwen Stacy is an intelligent but highly awkward and emotionally vulnerable woman. Due to the trauma of losing her best friend as well as growing up without a mother in her life, Gwen attempts to mask her feelings by putting up fronts and walls to appear more confident and put together than she actually is. When she initially meets Miles during the collider incident, she puts up this front, but her emotional state deteriorates in the year between the event and the next time she meets Miles to the point she is unable to hide her more awkward side. When she meets Miles again a year later, she again tries to put up fronts but this time to try and attempt to prevent her words from hurting Miles as she is terrified about telling him about the "canon event" regarding his father and his "anomaly" status. After the talk she had with her father however, it appears Gwen may finally be ready to open herself up more to others. Though Gwen attempted to isolate herself from others due to her own guilt and pain from losing her best friend, it did not take long for her to open up to and care about the Spider-Gang, as she grew to bond with them due to her ability to relate to them, especially Miles who her feelings for would increase over the course of the year she spent away from him. Gwen tends to bottle up her emotions and releases them when she's playing drums leading to her being particularly angry and distant. She also appears to use hugs when she is unable to clearly express her thoughts or emotions. She cares deeply for the people close to her in her life. She is also not afraid to protect her friends and family, standing up to Ned Leeds when he bullied Peter, and defending Miles from Miguel, even though it resulted in her being kicked out of the Spider-Society. She would reassemble the Spider-Gang with the purpose of rescuing Miles and hopefully rebuilding their relationship.
