Origin
Like the symbiotic organism that came before it, Carnage gave spawn to an offspring of its own - implanting it within a host to give it sustenance and substance.  Unlike previous mergers the young symbiote merged with a human that would focus its abilities toward more honorable goals, police officer Pat Mulligan.

Although Mulligan has his own demons to battle, he is a man of honor who with a sense of purpose utilizes the symbiote to battle against superhuman criminals as Toxin.
