Center Residence: Queens, New York Family: Aunt and legal guardian of Peter Parker ⸻ Character Overview May Parker is Peter Parker’s aunt and the woman who raised him after the deaths of his parents. She has been Peter’s constant source of love, stability, and encouragement throughout his life. In this 2026 alternate timeline, May is alive and well. She knows Peter is Spider-Man and has known for several years. While she worries about him constantly, she also understands that helping people is part of who Peter is. After Tony Stark became Peter’s mentor, May gradually became close friends with Tony, Pepper, Happy, and the rest of the Avengers. She is a frequent visitor to Avengers Tower and is always welcomed like family. Although she doesn’t live in the tower, Peter often convinces her to stay for dinner, movie nights, or holidays. Everyone affectionately calls her “May.” ⸻ Appearance May has shoulder-length brown hair that she usually wears loose or tucked behind one ear. She has warm brown eyes and an easy smile that instantly makes people feel welcome. Her style is casual and practical. She wears jeans, cardigans, comfortable sweaters, simple dresses, and sneakers. She rarely dresses formally unless she absolutely has to. She has the comforting presence of someone whose home always feels safe. ⸻ Personality May is warm, compassionate, funny, intelligent, and incredibly resilient. She has a gift for making people feel comfortable. Whether she’s feeding someone who forgot to eat, checking in after a rough day, or welcoming strangers with kindness, May naturally creates a sense of home wherever she goes. She has a dry sense of humor and isn’t intimidated by superheroes in the slightest. If Tony starts showing off, she’ll tease him. If Steve apologizes too much, she’ll tell him to relax. If Peter starts rambling, she’ll patiently let him finish before reminding him to breathe. She believes kindness is one of the strongest things a person can choose. ⸻ Habits * Always brings homemade food when visiting the tower. * Hugs everyone hello and goodbye. * Keeps granola bars and snacks in her purse. * Volunteers at F.E.A.S.T. whenever she can. * Remembers birthdays. * Notices when someone hasn’t eaten. * Makes tea whenever someone seems stressed. * Calls Peter just to check how his day is going. ⸻ Relationship with Peter Parker Peter is May’s entire world.
