Donovan was one of Max Tennyson's friends. When they were younger, Donovan gained a large amount of money. As a result, he decided to travel the world. When he offered Max the chance to travel with him, Max refused, and Donovan supposedly went out on his own.
Ben 10[]
Many years later, Donovan became a billionaire and started a chain of hotels. He invited Max and his grandkids to come to his newest resort underwater. There, Max, Ben and Gwen met Eddie, Donovan's grandson, who he wanted to take over the family business. However, he seemed to have missed the point of family and friendship, leaving him and his grandson somewhat distanced from one another. After the alien robotic squids destroyed the hotel, Donovan learned to appreciate Eddie, and they ended up on better terms. He then decided to make a hotel on the moon, and asked the Tennysons if they would be one of the first to try it. The Tennysons refused.
