NPC is The Scorpion
Macdonald "Mac" Gargan was a former private investigator hired by J. Jonah Jameson to, at first, discover the connection between Peter Parker and Spider-Man, and later as a means to destroy Spider-Man. In this capacity, Gargan was used as a test subject for a process that would endow him with the useful characteristics of a scorpion.
Mac Gargan, as the Scorpion, has superhuman strength, agility, reflexes, stamina, and durability, and also has the ability to cling to walls. In addition to his superhuman physique, he was traditionally armed with a cybernetic, seven-foot mechanical tail, which can whip at incredibly high speeds. The tail has in the past been equipped with projectile weapons, usually an electrical generator, although it has also been equipped with an acidic spray and a plasma energy projector. The Scorpion is substantially stronger and more durable than Spider-Man, though a much less skilled hand-to-hand combatant.
Over the years, Gargan has been one of the foes Spider-Man regularly fought from his rogues gallery. Although he will occasionally square off against other heroes, he always returns to his fixation on Spider-man and J Jonah Jameson, the men he blames for his condition.
