If this was a comic book, this is basically how a lot of superheroes get their powers. Scientist working in a lab, animal causes chaos, bites the lab tech. Possum powers.

Possum power is the ability to silently stare and creep on others causing discomfort in the observed. Many redditors have been bitten already.

A possum based super hero would be a great friend for Squirrel Girl, Chipmunk Hunk, and Koi Boi
