[COLOR=DARKGRAY][indent]Ben Tennyson was just an ordinary kid, about to embark on a summer road trip with his Grandpa Max and his cousin Gwen, when his life changed forever. A blazing meteorite tore across the sky and crashed into the woods. When Ben explored the impact site, an alien device clamped onto his wrist: the Omnitrix.

With the ability to transform into a range of alien heroes, Ben spent the summer travelling the country and fighting threats of every kind. He faced Dr. Animo’s mutant creations, an unstable power-stealing mutant named Kevin, and the Forever Knights, a secretive order of alien-hating zealots who hoarded extraterrestrial weaponry and hunted anything not born on Earth.

What Ben did not know was that the crash that started it all was no accident. Vilgax, a galactic warlord obsessed with conquering the universe, had attacked the transport ship carrying the Omnitrix and tracked it to Earth. When he finally struck, Ben barely survived the encounter. The battle triggered a catastrophic overload within the watch, and to stop it from detonating and destroying half the universe, Ben launched himself into space to find a way to shut it down.

That was five years ago.

One crisis after another left him stranded on the far edges of the galaxy. He grew stronger, fought new enemies, and travelled alongside smugglers, rebels, a trigger-happy raccoon, and a talking tree. It was the adventure of a lifetime, but all he wanted was to go home.

His chance finally came when S.W.O.R.D. detected his drifting ship entering their territory. But returning to Earth is not the relief he hoped for. The world has changed since he left, and new threats and old enemies await him.

[COLOR=DARKGRAY][INDENT]I loved Ben 10 as a kid and enjoyed seeing him grow as I did. As such, I always wanted to have a go at writing him, especially in a singular universe setting like this, as I feel he is perfect for collaboration with other heroes, both cosmic and earthbound. It also gives me a great opportunity to make use of some new alien forms based on this universe. 

Ben is definitely a character who does well in a grittier setting, as shown throughout the sequel series, so that's definitely something I intend to touch on here. Organisations like S.W.O.R.D. make such a good foil for idealistic heroes like Ben, who aren't fans of being managed. Especially by morally ambiguous characters like Abigail Brand. 

On top of all of this, Ben is a very easy character to do some good classic "monster of the week" adventures, with his large roster of heroes being a great way to mix up the action. My stories will definitely be earth-bound for the most part, although I do have more cosmic-scale plans for Vilgax, which I intend to build up in the background.
