Bio:
When Penni Parker is 9, she is informed that her father died while fighting crime in the specialized super hero suit SP//dr.  Penni's uncle and aunt help run the SP//dr suit project in a support capacity.  They tell Penni that she is the only that can continue to use the suit because it was tied to her Father's DNA.  The spider that runs the suit then selects her as its partner by biting Penni.  She is then actively trained to become a super-hero like her father.

At the age of 14, Penni uses the SP//dr suit to defeat her universes version of Mysterio.  Mysterio was floating in a giant orb and is dousing crowds of people in hallucinogenic gas.  Her universes version of Daredevil and SP//dr team up to take out a criminal group who is biologically enhancing their members.

Joining the Spider-Verse event:

On her way back from the mission with Daredevil, Penni is ambushed by Spider-Ham and another Spider-Man.  They inform her that spider-totems like Penni are being hunted down and that she needs to go with them for safety.  Penni and her spider trust the other spider-totems.  Penni retrieves her suit and joins the group of Spider-Men in their battle against Morlun.
