"Well, it seems you all will have quite a handful on your silver metaphorical plate. I wish all that will be involved in this good luck. So long!"

**Professor Paradox** or **Paradox**, is a side character from the ***Ben 10*** series.

## Canon

### Past

While much Paradox's past is unknown, the most information we have of him comes from his work with the USA's government. After discovering special properties in quartz crystals by the 1950's, Paradox was given government funding to work with the space-time continuum. With that, he and his assistant, Hugo, developed a machine that would be capable of braching into space-time. However, due to a miscauculation error and an accidental explosion caused by his assistant, Paradox was thrown into the event horizon, trapping him into the endless void of the space-time continuum for about 100,000 years.

With that, he was completely unable to do anything, not having the need to sleep, eat or anything along those lines. He only existed. Paradox went insane due to that, but he eventually "got bored of that" and went sane, "very sane". He then proceeded to gain complete knowledge of Space and Time, managing to escape the event horizon and become a self-proclaimed Time Walker. Some time after, he created the Chrono Navigator to help him travel between the various dimensions across the space-time contnuum.

### *Ben 10: Alien Force and Ben 10: Ultimate Alien*

After aquiring his abilities, Paradox sets off to investigate the multiverse and aid those he deems necessary of help. Because of this, he manages establishing a bond with many of the Ben Tennysons, his variants and allies across most dimensions. His current name: Professor Paradox, was even given to him due to the Prime Timeline's Gwen, due to him forgetting his original name. Nonetheless, Paradox was a great asset to the Alien Force, helping them when intervention was needed and swaying them the correct path when a "little push" was needed.

## Pre-Paradise

It's vastly unknown what exactly was Paradox doing before his arrival on the Hotel, the safest assumption would be that he was inside of his pocket space outside of Space-Time before being forcefully transported there.

## Plot Involvement

Professor Paradox has, at best, only communicated through the public chatroom, not making any physical appearances as of yet. He hasn't interacted a lot, and has mostly left confusion behind than any actual conversations.

## Character Relationships

* *None -* A character from ***The Endless Void of Cold Space***. Paradox is yet to create any relationships, as of now.

## Trivia

* Paradox has been brought from before his Omniverse incarnation, meaning he has not been through the Time War yet.
* Due to his abilities, it's very difficult to tell at which rate the events of Ben 10 had happened to him, seeing as he already knew the Alien Force team in his introductory episode and almost revealed certain future events, and helped prevent some of them, to the group in various occasions.
* While there are many similarities between them, Professor Paradox is more so a nod to Doctor Who's The Doctor than actually being based around him. Some similarities includes: Their clothing, time travelling related concepts, usage of similar or the same phrases, usage of candy in tense situations and a few other character traits.
