Ben Loomis

Dr. Benjamin "Ben" Loomis M.D. is a psychiatrist and medical doctor whose primary patients are Michael Myers and his family. He also provides psychiatric services and criminal behavioral profiling for the Remnant in New York City as well as the Jedi Order of Earth. He previously provided similar services to the Haddonfield Police Department as well as serving as that department's Medical Examiner. Unlike his father Samuel Loomis, he enjoys a much better working relationship with Michael which both men attribute to the support and positive encouragement provided to Michael by Tommy Doyle, Kelsey Myers, and later Tevin Felth.
==Haddonfield==
Loomis arrived in Haddonfield, Illinois in 2008 after realizing that Michael's son Josh would be turning six on Halloween of that year. Loomis made contact with Myers and Doyle after traveling to the Myers House and finding a large number of Jedi gathered at the Doyle House including Kyp Durron and Bryan Khayman. Loomis shared what he knew of the Curse of Thorn and its connection with the Sith Lord Darth Sidious. He later joined in an operation to rescue Josh and Kelsey from Terence Wynn and the Cult of Thorn at Smith's Grove Sanitarium where he fended off a number of s. While there, Wynn attempted to convince Loomis to join him, but Ben refused and told Wynn that he was out of whatever was left of his mind. After this, Ben took on the job of dealing with the Myers Family's needs adding that the two families would forever be connected. He was unknowingly helped in his early treatments of Michael by the spirits of Jedi Master Qui-Gon Jinn and Jedi Knight Anakin Skywalker as it was revealed that Michael and Josh were Force-Sensitive. He was later hired by Michael's Father-in-law, Haddonfield Sheriff Peter Hill to serve as the department's criminal profiler and medical examiner where he helped the department take on notorious serial killers Nicole Wallace and Gina Whitmore among others. When NCIS visited Haddonfield, he worked alongside their Medical Examiner Dr. Donald "Ducky" Mallard as the case took many disturbing turns. In 2011, when Myers and Doyle handed in their resignations and announced that they were moving to New York, Loomis went with them leaving Haddonfield under the watch of his brother David Loomis
==New York==
Ben arrived in New York where he continued serving as Myers Family's doctor as well as taking on the roles of criminal profiler and psychiatrist for the Remnant replacing George Huang. He was first set upon by Corporal Klinger who was seeking a discharge for being mentally unfit for duty by claiming to be the former Emperor Palpatine which Admiral Firmus Piett and others found in complete distaste after the Sith Lord had murdered Jedi Master Bryan Khayman a year earlier and cross-dressing which Loomis said had been removed from the in 1974. In 2012, he provided some grief counseling to the team following the death of Miguel Chavez and added that Miguel's death seemed to hit them very hard as they had yet to recover from the death of Khayman. He also added in a sarcastic manner that he considered them-FBI Assistant Director George Tunney a narcissist and blamed Tunney for Chavez's death. In 2013, Ben was asked to evaluate the resurrected Jedi Knight Anakin Skywalker by resurrected Jedi Master Obi-Wan Kenobi who wanted to know where the old Jedi Order had failed in preventing Anakin's fall to the Dark Side and how to prevent it from happening again as Kenobi and Skywalker were set to formally create the Jedi Order of Earth that Khayman had also been working on. Ben was later asked to do two more Jedi evaluations for Kenobi and later Tevin Felth on Galen Marek in 2014 to determine if it was safe for Marek and Skywalker to be around each other, although Erica Rex seemed to be playing peacekeeper between the two and then on Ezra Bridger in 2018 as Felth and Piett were concerned about Bridger's traumatic childhood stemming from living on the streets of Lothal as a child for several years following the arrest of his parents when he was 7. Ben suggested that Bridger be in the Remnant's offices as little as possible otherwise he might attack Stormtroopers handling prisoners in what Bridger might interpret as an aggressive manner, have a flashback, and attack the troopers. He also suggested that Bridger could use some company other then the droid C1-10P and help adjusting to life on Earth and that his self-appointed tour guides (Josh Myers, Landon McKnight, and Lucy Felth) would be the best people to make that happen as Josh had already managed to get Ezra's name out of him whereas Max Walertin had gotten Ezra's sarcastic alias of when asked.
In 2019 at Michael's request, Ben evaluated Tori Rodgers after the death of her parents and her complete challenge to Michael's rules as Michael and Kelsey felt there was something going on with her that required mental health treatment as opposed to Tori being sent to Tyler Markem's Scared Straight Program. Ben determined that Tori had which was largely directed at Michael who Tori also considered an due to what he knew as the overwhelmed nature of her own father Joseph Rodgers and related to the sudden move from to New York. When asked by Michael why he wasn't having these problems with Noah Rodgers, Ben simply said that Noah wanted to be in New York and Tori didn't. He also suggested that Michael and Kelsey do their part to make Tori feel like part of the family and that she seemed to be developing a stronger bond with Kelsey as Tori was more willing to listen to Kelsey. He also mentioned that Tori seemed to be attracted to Josh and that Michael and Kelsey might want to address that due to the age difference between them.
Sometime after Halloween 2019, Ben does an assessment of Christopher Felth after Tevin and Michael discover that Chris and Tori had engaged in a form of . Ben notes that he thinks Tori will eventually have some form in influence over how Chris turns out as an adult.
== Future ==
In 2032, Ben travels to Philadelphia after being asked to do assessments of Christopher Felth who had been involved in his second fatal weapons discharge within the span of a year, Shaun McCutchen who was being considered as a candidate for the Jedi Order of Earth, and Caleb Carpenter who was suspected of having by Ryan Pratchard Jr. and had behaved the wee prior in a way that worried Lucy Carpenter. While there, he asks Tevin Felth for permission to do the same with Typher Marlion and Marlion's officers as the details of the case against LaShonda McCutchen disturbed Michael Myers in a way that Ben later tells Eric Schuyler only one other case did. Ben also asks about other things of note including the death of Donna Marlion's sister as well as the relationship between Eric Schuyler and Jason Oliver and the impact Mira Syndulla has had on it. During these interviews, Eric tells Ben that he had trouble sleeping after he had been involved with the discovery and exhumation of the remains of McCutchen's daughters and that the problem seemed to resolve itself after Mira told him that LaShonda McCutchen had been given the Death Penalty. Eric also tells Ben about his days at the Remnant Security Bureau and the bullying he received at the hands of Hochster noting that Lucy had seen to Hochster being punished for the behavior. He later calls Jason out on Jason's use of after Jason had told Ben that nothing bothered him, but later said that he was starting to worry about Eric and that Eric had trouble opening up to people because of how Hochster had treated him. Ben later listens as Typher describes the reaction of Donna's mother to the death of Donna's sister and that Typher's main concern was leaving the city in the hands of Lucy and Chris after hearing about Chris shooting Patrick Carter in Haddonfield and Lucy's pregnancy. Ben later has dinner with the Carpenters where he determines that Caleb does not have ADHD and is simply repeating the behaviors of those around him. He also tells Lucy and Darius that Ryan Pratchard Jr. should stick to the law and keep his medical opinions to himself. He also tells Michael that Shaun is cleared to begin Jedi training and tells Tevin his opinions of Typher and his staff and adds that Caleb may turn out to have a smart mouth as he gets older based on how Josh Myers has turned out.
Ben later returns to Philadelphia after being called by Donna Marlion and told that Tori might be suffering a mental breakdown following a home invasion carried out by agents of the Philadelphia District Attorney who had terrorized her and the Felth Twins. During this session, Tori revealed that she was scared of losing Chris and being forced to raise the twins alone. He also reminded Tori that Hera Syndulla helped liberate Lothal despite having lost Kanan Jarrus and being pregnant with Jacen knowing that both Tori and Lucy considered Hera to be ne of their idols. He also suggested that both Chris and Tori could use some time away from the city and suggested that members of Red Squadron could escort the Ghost on an upcoming trip to Triforia which was followed up on as Chris and Tori were joined by Noah Rodgers and Mitchell Piett for the trip. This unknowingly allowed for the spirit of Bryan Khayman to set a trap for the D.A.'s goons who broke into the Felth House only to be terrorized by Khayman's spirit slamming doors and other behaviors that convinced the two men that the house was haunted as Eric Schuyler revealed to the four upon their return that the goons had turned themselves into Marlion's office.
