Charmcaster

Charmcaster, also known as Hope, is a character from the Ben 10 series.
== Charactah Account ==
Hex's niece and disciple, as well as Gwen's personal rival. At first appearing to be an unwilling and submissive servant of her uncle, Charmcaster shows her true colors when she double-crosses both him and the heroes in an attempt to gain the power of Bezel for herself. After her second defeat at the hands of Gwen, Gwen takes her spellbook away and learns magic from it, cementing the pair's rivalry.
In Ultimate Alien, it's revealed that her true name is Hope and that she comes from the dimension of Ledgerdomain. Her father and all other humans save for her and Hex were slaughtered by the evil Adwaita, who conquered the realm for himself. Hope's goal is to liberate her homeworld and also find a way to resurrect her father, no matter what the cost may be, and she thus walks the line between good and evil frequently.

== Trivia ==
* Both Kevin and Charmcaster were created specifically to be foils for Ben and Gwen, to reflect more personal conflicts within them based around their youth, and who would gradually shift from villains to anti-heroes. If Gwen had received a spin-off series, then Charmcaster would have joined her side just as Kevin joined Ben's.
* Charmcaster's intentions in Ultimate Alien were to return to Ledgerdomain and save her people rather than rule the world.
* In Alien Force, Charmcaster is in possession of Hex's staff. As stated in the original series, only a master magician can use it. This implies that she has become a master magician.
* Charmcaster is the only villain to have successfully killed Ben, Gwen, and Kevin, although it wasn't permanent.
* Charmcaster's "Caroline" disguise heavily resembles Sandra Tennyson, just younger.
* Charmcaster's original design, seen on the "Ben 10 Complete Third Season" DVD, looked just like the one that was actually used except her coat was red instead of purple, her hair black instead of white, and with paintings on her face that made her resemble Hex.
** Thomas Perkins, her designer, has stated that these colors and features were meant to give a Charmcaster a fox-themed appearance.
* Charmcaster shares a few similarities with the superheroine Scarlet Witch of Marvel Comics mainly since they are both sorceress who were originally evil but turned good and both are related to a supervillain (Magneto for Scarlet Witch, Hex for Charmcaster).
