Ben Tennyson (Remnant)

Ben Tennyson is one of the main characters of RWBY: Grimm Force, and is the leader of Team TRTL.
==Appearance==
Ben is a 17 year old boy with brown hair and green eyes. He wears a biker jacket that is green with black sleeves and shoulders; the left pectoral of the jacket has an extension to the black which holds his emblem, which is the hourglass of the Omnitrix. Going along with his biker aesthetic are green elbow pads and brown gloves. His cargo pants are stark white, and he has black and green footwear. Underneath his jacket sleeve is the Omnitrix on his left wrist.
==History==
Ben, like his cousin Gwen, is from Mistral. The two were trained from the age of ten by their grandfather, Max Tennyson. This was the age in which both of them unlocked their Semblances. When the two became seventeen, they took the Huntsmen Exam, and enrolled to Beacon Academy in Vale. It is here where the cousins became part of Team TRTL, Ben becoming the leader.
According to Gwen, Max helped the two cousins get their weapons, which both work in unison with their Semblances. During his conversation with Ruby Rose, Ben mentions that his weapon was made by someone named Azmuth.
==Personality==
Ben has shown two conflicting aspects to his personality so far. During his fight with Ruby in Glynda's class, Ben was a mix of confident and cocky, which only grew with each attack he dodged. However, upon the mention of his Semblance, Ben's mood dropped incredibly. Ben confided in Ozpin the fear he had regarding his Semblance that made him so reluctant to use it.
==Powers==
Ben has proficient fighting styles outside of his Semblance, and is fast and agile enough to dodge shots from Ruby's Crescent Rose.
=== Omnitrix ===
Ben's weapon is the Omnitrix, a watch-like device worn on his left wrist. Ben notes that the device has ten cartridges of different kinds of Dust; the first one he displayed was Hard Light, in which the Omnitrix created a small force field to block bullets from Crescent Rose. It was later shown also having Rock Dust.
=== Hero Time ===
Ben later used the Omnitrix for its true purpose, which is to go along with his Semblance, which he dubs "Hero Time." By using the Dust in the device, or combinations of the Dust, Ben can better access his Semblance. Hero Time causes Ben's Aura to transform him into beings with different superpowers dependent upon the Dust used to create them.
Ben has yet to utilize any transformation that requires a combination of more than two types of Dust. However, his does not count types of Dust made from other types, such as Ice Dust which is a combination of Water Dust and Wind Dust. The combinations have different effects if they combine before or after coming in contact with Ben's Aura; i.e. Ben selecting Water Dust and Wind Dust at the same time would produce a different transformation from him simply selecting Ice Dust.

==Weaknesses ==
Ben is incredibly reluctant to use, or even talk about, his Semblance. It brings him pain and fear while using it, and he worries about the fear his transformations may instill in others should they find out about it. Even upon confiding in Ruby, Ben finds himself having trouble actually using his Semblance.
Ben's cockiness has shown to get the better of him, as Ben had gotten cocky during his sparring match against Ruby when he jumped onto Crescent Rose, allowing her to try a sneak attack, though he was able to recover quite easily.
Ben's Aura can run out either due to too much damage, or overexertion of his Semblance. If a critical blow is hit during this time, it is potentially fatal.

== Trivia==
*Ben's reluctance to use his powers is intentionally contrasting the typical demeanor Ben has in other continuities. Usually, Ben is always excited to "go hero," even to a fault of using personal preference aliens over ones that would be better suited for the scenario. This Ben, however, has a reluctance almost comparable to that any other (reasonably written) Ben would have regarding Alien X.
*Ben's outfit is meant to combine his Alien Force/Ultimate Alien aesthetic with his Tenn Speed outfit from Omniverse, and his shirt from the Reboot. The patch with his emblem combines the placement of the 10 on his Reboot shirt with the original series outfit of Diamondhead.
*The name "Benjamin" is derived from Hebrew, meaning "Son of the right hand." This holy origin may bring to mind whites or golds. "Ben" may also refer to a mountain peak, which brings to minds whites, greys, and greens. "Tennyson" derives from the Barony of Tennyson, the Arms of which is colored red and yellow.
*Ben's art was provided by Shark.
