Scarlet Spider's incarnation in the Ultimate Spider-Man series is an amalgam of the first Scarlet Spider, Ben Reilly, and the fourth and current Scarlet Spider, Kaine. In The Amazing Spider-Man comic book series, Ben Reilly and Kaine are both clones of Peter Parker created by Jackal. While this incarnation of Scarlet Spider shares Kaine's costume, abilities (e.g. his stringers and organic webbing), and belligerent personality, he takes on the name "Ben Reilly" in the series. However, unlike in the comic book series, Scarlet Spider is a synthezoid/human hybrid created by Doctor Octopus and Arnim Zola.

Expert Pilot: Scarlet Spider is an exceptional plane pilot, able to quickly adjust to the unique controls of the "Spider-Jet" and skillfully maneuver it about.

Expert Spy: He was able to infiltrate S.H.I.E.L.D, as Spider-man's team member & eventually became his closest friend. Even after Spider-Man was aware of there being a Spy in S.H.I.E.L.D., he still never doubted him. He even took his time to study Peter Parker's normal life, so as to uncover a weakness for Doc Ock.

Spider-Slayer Control: He was programmed and designed to be the leader and mental commander of the Spider-Slayers. However, Kaine is shown to have more control over them, probably due to the fact Scarlet attempted to overload him but didn't get the chance the finish.

Retractable Stingers: From both of his wrists, Scarlet Spider is able to produce a pronounced stinger about the length of a standard sword. It is very sharp and durable, able to cleanly and effortlessly slice through solid metal.

Wall-Crawling: Scarlet Spider can crawl along surfaces much like a spider would.

Superhuman Reflexes: Scarlet Spider's are near instantaneous, able to dodge a barrage of blasts unscathed.

Superhuman Durability: Scarlet Spider is physically tougher and more resistant to some types of injury than the body of a normal human, having been hit with tremendous blunt force by Doctor Octopus' mechanical arms and quickly rebounding. He was even able to survive a crashing Hydra Island.

Superhuman Strength: Scarlet Spider has a high degree of strength, able to kick a car through the air and launch it at a target. During his revealing to be a secret member of the Sinister Seven, he was even able to keep Spider-Man on hold, despite the latter having superhuman strength.

Scarlet Spider is a vigilante with spider-based powers, made possible by Doctor Octopus experimenting on him, though they are much more evolved than Spider-Man's powers. He claims that he is, in fact, the first true "Spider-Man", having come before Peter Parker, the "current" Spider-Man. He was later given the name Ben Reilly by Aunt May. He is later revealed to be a secret bonus member of the Sinister Seven & the true spy inside S.H.I.E.L.D. Academy. He has a change of heart after being persuaded by Aunt May to help Spider-Man and after learning that Doc Ock only used him as a tool if he failed. He later returns having survived the fall while on Octopus Island.

He and Flash Thompson didn't get along, though after Ock kidnapped Flash, they softened up to each other. With Scarlet's betrayal, the tension returned until Scarlet redeemed himself.

After being revealed to be another member of Doctor Octopus' Sinister villains, Ben's trait of "Ben Reilly" is nothing more than a facade, this is a reference to how Kaine used to be a villain in his first appearance in the main comic books. However, due to the reveal that Octavius' true motive is to destroy HYDRA by using a S.H.I.E.L.D. weapon made by Connors, and due to his respect for Aunt May, this makes Scarlet Spider more of an anti-hero.

Keeps his superhero and personal identities separate and secret

He wants to prove he's worthy of carrying Uncle Ben's name

He just needs some love to get through that tough exterior. Deep down, he wants to be cared for but doesn't know how to ask. So he hides it with sarcasm.
