BENJAMINNATHANIELCARTER Benjamin was born in Cairo to an English father and an Egyptian-English mother. A few months after he was born his father disappeared and his mother died a few years later of a broken heart. Ben was left on his own and became a street performer during which time he caught the eye of Amun. When he was twenty three Amun turned him, fascinated by his ability to create and control power even as a human, in the hope that he could be used as a weapon. He refused but still joined Amun's coven and his childhood sweetheart Tia later joined them as well. Ben was a witness when the Volturi made a move against the Cullen family and afterwards he returned to Egypt. A decade later Aro decided that he needed Ben to join the Volturi and he killed Tia as an incentive before threatening to kill the only other family Ben had left - Amun and Kebi. He reluctantly agreed to join them to spare the two of them and he has been with them for over a hundred years. Ben was recently assigned to watch over the Stanley and Swan families in Forks to see if any of the latest generation have gifts like Bella but after finding himself drawn to Quinn, a gifted human, he has realised it is time to get out from under Aro's influence and now he is just waiting until the time is right to leave.
Friends;; Ben has been kept away from people for most of his life as a vampire so friends aren't something that he has very many of. During his time in America with the Cullens he came to think of them as friends, however, and he has met a few like minded vampires since he joined the Volturi who would also fall into this category. Ben isn't someone who often tends to make friends very easily but when he does befriend someone there isn't anything that he wouldn't do for them.
Enemies;; Being a member of the Volturi, even an unwilling one, will no doubt mean that Ben has gained a few enemies along the way and there may also be people who are intimidated by his ability to control the elements.
Lovers;; Ben has been in love once during his long life so far and that was with his childhood friend Tia. She became a vampire so that they could be together and they were happy for a few centuries until she was killed by Aro in a ploy to get Ben to join them. For over a hundred years he has been on his own but lately he has been finding himself drawn to a human named Quinn Stanley even though the two of them have never formally met and that both thrills and scares him.
Family;; Ben became an orphan at a very young age and bounced around between various different members of his mother's family before ending up with his uncle. Now all of the humans he used to call his family are dead but their lineage lives on in Egypt, as do his vampire family - Amun and Kebi. Ben was forced to leave them in order to save their lives but he still considers them his family and could use some people in his life to fill the void at being so far away from them.

so aside from the obvious plot with ben and quinn this seemed like the next most obvious one. these two are both in the volturi so there's that, but also the fact that "eventually" they'll both be on team abandon the volturi with marcus, talia, and co. i think it would be interesting if they have some kind of friendship? not anything too serious because i can't imagine rosalyn is very open or friendly towards anyone really, but at least kind of like a teasing/surface level friendship. eventually it can become something deeper and more genuine, but for the moment she's still kind of keeping people at arms length because she isn't sure what her future is and because she's kind of ruthless and really only gets close to people if she thinks they can help her get more powerful.
but things will change! and she'll be more of a friendly person in the future lol.

@rosalyn
I definitely like the idea of a genuine friendship forming between them once they have both broken away from the Volturi. Until then Ben doesn't really trust anyone around him too much so I think some friendly teasing and banter would be good. Considering he lost Tia and is away from the only other family he has he doesn't really like letting people get too close to him at the moment since he doesn't want to lose them as well. Shall we maybe get a thread going and see how it goes?

i feel like bella would feel bad throwing ben onto the radar of aro and his guard. she might even blame herself for the death of his lover, because if he hadn't helped with renesmee he would have stayed hidden from the higher up vampires. but they should remeet! maybe run into each other and recognize each other or something? or he could visit the cullen home and find bella?

@bella
Ben wouldn't want Bella to feel guilty, it was his decision to finally become a part of the world rather than stick to the shadows I agree that these two need to meet though and I could definitely see him going to the Cullen home perhaps looking for Carlisle or Esme and find her instead. I need to check with Bailee about Ben and Quinn first but perhaps a little later on he could confide in Bella about his concerns for Quinn's ability?

Do you want me to start this one by having Ben show up at the house?
