Bonded to Eddie Brock,Carnagenow comes up with the creepiest killing methods his twisted symbiote mind can devise. Carnage takes special pleasure in pushing Eddie Brock to his limit. The thrill of seeing Eddie try to avoid murder and regret it when he loses control is even bigger than the one the symbiote derived fromCletus Kasady’s natural bloodthirst.
While Eddie sleeps or lies unconscious, Carnage murders any wild animal he comes across. Besides keeping his hunger at bay, this allows Carnage to manipulate Eddie, who does his best not to harm any innocent human being. However, Carnage’s hunger is getting out of control.
Eddie Brock’s body succumbs to Carnage’s possession as Carnage’s thirst for blood grows. Even still, Carnage’s mind games won’t stop anytime soon.

InEddie Brock: Carnage#7, Carnage takes his chance to attack a couple of EMTs who picked up Eddie Brock after he fell unconscious.Carnage could easily take over Eddie Brock’s body and do his symbiote name justice, but he prefers to dose his violence carefully.Instead of launching himself at his victims, he scares them with a tentacle, leading the ambulance driver to crash.
The symbiotes' most common weapons are usually their tendrils, which they can summon from any part of their body. Carnage, in particular, usually likes to use spiky appendages to stab or trap his prey. InEddie Brock: Carnage #7, Carnage apparently replaces his tendrils with alien-looking tentacles just for shock value.
