– Ben speaking of the gift that being the bearer of the Omnitrix has bestowed upon him.[7] | ||
Benjamin Kirby "Ben" Tennyson[merch 1] is the titular main protagonist of the Ben 10 franchise. He was an ordinary ten-year-old boy until he found the Omnitrix, a powerful watch-like device that allowed him to turn into ten different aliens. Though initially immature and clumsy, Ben grew to be a true hero. By the time he was sixteen, he had become famous in not only his hometown of Bellwood but on Earth and beyond. Ben has also been deputized by the Plumbers and has gained more aliens as time progressed.
Appearance
Ben's physical appearance has changed throughout the series from a ten-year-old to a sixteen-year-old. However, he retains some recurring characteristics.

Personality
| “ | You think I don't know? When it's hero time, if I mess up, somebody could die. From what you told me, if we mess up this time, everybody could die... Maybe that's too much to have in your head when you have to win. Maybe if I pretend everything is a big joke, when the time comes, I'll be able to do what I have to do. | ” |
– 10 year old Ben to 17 year old Kevin asking him to be serious.[8] | ||
Initially cocky, childish, and selfish, Ben's immaturity and attention-seeking behavior often led him to joke around, regardless of the situation. His allies often criticized his attitude, unaware of the fact that he used humor to mask his fears. Despite some childish attitude, he was heroic, caring and generally good-natured, always willing to save others at any time.
Over the years, Ben has displayed good leadership skills, as well as the ability to adapt his attitude to a situation, becoming serious when it's called for. He became more mature, responsible and sensible. He's kind-hearted, willing to sacrifice even his own life for others. His idealistic views and unwillingness to compromise his values – aspects condemned by Azmuth, yet commended by others – sometimes drive him to act against reason, such as helping his enemies if they need it (most remarkably Vilgax).[9] Professor Paradox has praised Ben's good nature, going so far as to say he had the gift to make the right choices at the right moments.[8] Also, Ben doesn't give up and wouldn't let anyone stop him from doing what's right for those in need, especially his family, friends and mentors, or to bring enemies down, even when he once got a broken arm.[10]
However, when Ben fails to save someone, or if someone gets hurt because of his failures, he becomes angry and much more violent. Perhaps the most notable of these instances is when Kevin willingly mutated himself to succeed where Ben had failed and stop Aggregor, Ben was set on killing Kevin, even fighting Gwen when she refused to help him.[11] He also threatened to hunt down and destroy the Forever Knights once making Driscoll promise to cease the hunting of aliens.[12]
Though often stated to be silly or unintelligent because of his immaturity, Ben is cunning and resourceful when needed, quickly adapting when the Omnitrix doesn't provide him with the alien he wanted.
Later on, Ben starts thinking of himself as more of a superhero than a Plumber, often remarking that he's not a cop, but a superhero.[13] Although he once again became cocky, he retained his selfless and heroic nature.

Powers and Abilities
Ben is a crafty, intelligent fighter, having trained in hand-to-hand combat by black belt Gwen and Max. He has also received basic Plumber training, having succeeded in the Plumbers' Academy with a 95 out of a 100.[6] On top of that, he has gained practical experience from various years of fighting aliens.
Ben is quite agile and acrobatic, being able to easily dodge shots from Manny's blasters before disarming him while in human form.[14]
Ben actually uses freestyle fighting, being able to hold his own against Pierce. Max has hinted that Ben was a highly-skilled fighter, even as a human.[15]
It is evident that Ben is smart in some respects, possessing an above-average intelligence. Gwen even stated that he really is not working up to his potential at school.[16] He also has fairly moderate grades, maintaining a B+ average in his toughest subjects Physics and Chemistry.
Ben has an extraordinarily sharp memory, as he was perfectly capable of remembering and writing down the mystic rune-like symbols for entering the inter-dimensional realm of Legerdomain with just one glance from a distance.[16] This is even more true for things that interest him.[DM 1]
Ben is a cross dominant, skillfully wielding tools and weapons in either hand, in human or alien form.
Ben is able to speak Spanish and other languages with the Omnitrix.[17]
Ben has a knack for turning his weaknesses into strengths.[pop-up 1][18]
Ben is surprisingly a natural at hoverboard-based combat, which generally requires intensive training and the use of holographic simulators.[pop-up 2][18] This is most likely because he can snowboard.[19]
Ben has remarkable pilot skills that function like a combination of playing video games and tap lessons Sandra made him take, but he would never admit it.[pop-up 3][18]
Ben is very good at driving, as demonstrated in Video Games.
Ben is a decent musician, as he can play the guitar.[19]
Equipment
Ben is the wielder of the Omnitrix (formerly the Ultimatrix and first Omnitrix), which gave him the power to modify his own genetic code in order to turn into various alien creatures. Traditionally, he could only transform into ten aliens at the beginning of both the original series and Alien Force, but he later gains additional forms by either unlocking them or by scanning the DNA of aliens he meets.
When transforming into an alien, Ben gets all the creature's features, including its appearance, voice, all of its unique and special abilities and powers, strengths and weaknesses. Though he mostly retains his personality, there are some cases where the transformation causes a change in it, like with Rath and Juryrigg.
Though he usually uses his alien forms to fight, he can impersonate aliens as he did with Water Hazard to convince P'andor to go home, though he was only successful at getting P'andor to believe he was Bivalvan.[20]
In addition to transforming into aliens, the Ultimatrix included what is referred as an "evolutionary function", that allowed Ben to evolve his alien forms in order to get upgraded versions of them, referred to as Ultimate Forms.
In addition to the primary transformations and evolutionary function, the Omnitrices and Ultimatrix can both be used for various purposes. Both have a built-in Universal Translator that allows Ben to communicate with most aliens that do not speak English.[21]
The prototype Omnitrix displayed the ability to manipulate and repair genetic damage, a function he used to cure DNAliens[22] and save the Highbreed from extinction.[23] Azmuth also mentioned that Ben could use the prototype Omnitrix to bring back to life any species stored on Primus.[24]
The Omnitrix also has a failsafe to help prevent Ben from dying. If Ben is in mortal danger and the Omnitrix is in recharge mode, it will automatically go into active mode.
Weaknesses
Ben's fear of clowns
Whenever the Omnitrix times out, Ben is left powerless until he either dodges or switches to a new alien form. In addition to gaining the selected alien's powers and strengths, he gains its weaknesses.
Whenever Ben unlocks a new alien form, he is at a disadvantage of not knowing its abilities and weaknesses until he gains experience with using that alien. While later series will have this weakness downplayed due to differences in Omnitrix features and models, Ben still takes some time to fully master a alien form's potential.
Though he has matured substantially since receiving the original Omnitrix, he is still a teenager with much to learn and is prone to irrational impulses and recklessness.
Despite his experience in using the Omnitrices and Ultimatrix, Ben still does not know every function of them. Due to his inquisitive nature and impatience, he has accidentally unlocked new functions such as the Master Control[25] and the randomizer,[26] which can at times do more harm than good.
Though the current Omnitrix is designed to work only for him, Ben still has not mastered it. According to Azmuth, Ben may get the Master Control on his 18th birthday.[27]
The Omnitrix does not actually mistransform, but rather it is due to Ben hitting the Omnitrix too hard, thereby causing the time-out function to select another alien at random.[28]
At times, the natural biological behavior of certain aliens can override Ben's behavior, such as Big Chill's reproductive phase[29] or Swampfire's blossoming process.[30]
Any illness Ben is experiencing in his human form will affect his alien forms.[31][32]
Ben appears to have a short attention span and very little patience at times.[pop-up 4][33] More often than not, it can get him into trouble, such as not reading the directions when trapped in Summo Slammers Smackdown.[pop-up 5][34]
Ben has an allergy to peanuts.[35]
Ben has coulrophobia (i.e. the fear of clowns),[36] which was indirectly caused by Max.[37][note 2]
Ben's worst fear is that of peacocks.[39][40][41]
Ben is not immune to Corrodium and will be mutated when exposed to this mineral unless he either wears special protection or transforms into an alien.[42][43]
Ben's left eye twitches whenever he tells a lie, but only Kevin appears to notice this.[44]
Despite his piloting skills, Kevin is considered to be a better pilot than Ben.[DM 2]
Ben's worst subject is Physics,[44] followed by Chemistry.[45]
Ben can experience pain from electricity, such as that generated by a Nosedeenian.[46]

Etymology
Benjamin is a name from the Hebrew name בִּנְיָמִין (Binyamin) which means "son of the south" or "son of the right hand" going back into the Tanakh (called the Hebrew Bible by Christian scholars), a name of one of the sons of Jacob. His name, "Ben," is to create a rhyming effect between his first name and the number Ten. Also, his surname is a reference to 'Ten' of Ben 10.
His middle name, Kirby, was named as reference to comic book artist Jack Kirby.[DJW 1]

- Duncan Rouleau claims that the four alternate Bens featured in Alien X-Tinction are the same as the Ben Prime from the previous four series.[DR 1] However, there are subtle differences between the Bens compared to their Classic counterparts, such as Ultimate Alien Ben wearing his Ultimatrix backwards. While this is likely an error, it is never stated whether or not Maximillian or Alien Force Ben's device can travel through time. Furthermore, Cartoon Network considers Alien Force Ben and Ultimate Alien Ben to be two distinct Bens from different dimensions.[CN 1] As such it is open to interpretation as to whether or not they are Ben Prime. This wiki however, considers them separate characters who are based on the Bens from the series they represent.
Notes
- ↑ Manny Tennyson was mentioned in Gwen 10, a non-canon episode. It is unknown if he exists in the canon timeline.
- ↑ In Ultimate Alien, Ben's coulrophobia came from being scared by a clown at the circus when he was four.[38] This was changed in Omniverse, as Ben's coulrophobia came from seeing Max in clown make-up when he was five.
