Ben was an engineer under General Victor Anderson’s command prior to being lost and reported as KIA. He is best friends with Simon Reid.

 

Supposedly, Ben was lost on a mission on an entirely different planet, which he spent months on before being able to return to Earth in a damaged, alien ship. Upon arrival he was injured and coughing up blood - covered in strange scars and, as Dr. Aleksandra Boroi noted, had metal under his skin.

 

General Francis North and his superiors showed an interest in whatever was going on with Ben, and ordered Victor to hand him over. Victor however disobeyed said orders, believing his superiors had ill intentions, and sent Ben away to an individual named Ims for help.

 

Ben’s current whereabouts are unknown.
