Benjamin Kirby "Ben" Tennyson is the main protagonist of the fan-made alternate universe Analog Ben, better known as The Carnitrix, based on the Ben 10 franchise by TikTok user Canibal099.
Similar to the Ben of the Prime Timeline & Reboot Timeline, he was a normal ten-year-old boy with a similar story until instead of finding the Omnitrix, he found the Carnitrix, which would transform him into murderous aliens against his own will, with the aliens starting to use his body to bring pain and horror to the universe with Ben only watching what he had done helplessly.

Personality[]
Ben is similar to his classic & reboot counterparts, having the same desire of becoming a hero and doing good. However once he was bonded with the Carnitrix, Ben became depressed after seeing the countless deaths he had caused. Those traumatic experiences he had witnessed at such a young age made Ben start to develop PTSD (Post Traumatic Stress Disorder).
Biography[]
The Beginning of the Nightmare[]
Ben shares a similar story with his main counterpart, going to the summer school with his Grandpa Max and Gwen and then deciding to go to the forest as he began to regret being in this vacation, thinking that it was going to be the "worst summer ever". However, the divergence would occurs once the meteorite would land on his location. Instead of finding the Omnitrix, Ben would find the Carnitrix, which used its tentacles to permanently attach itself to his left wrist. Screaming of pain, Ben was eventually heard by Gwen who decided to pay him a visit.
Losing Everything[]
Noticing the watch wasn't working once he watched Gwen, the Carnitrix made Ben enter into a painful transformation where his skin started to catch fire, transforming into Heatblast. Scared, Gwen would tell Ben that she couldn't respond just by looking at herself like she had become. Scared Ben would reveal to Gwen that he couldn't move as he began to approach her while he told her to run. However, Ben didn't give her a chance since he burned her face and brutally crushed her entire skull, ending the life of his cousin.
After having returned to normal, a guilt driven Ben would go to his grandfather Max telling him what he has done. However, just when he finds it, the Carnitrix activates again, which would transform Ben into XLR8. Ben would try to warn Max but before his grandfather had time to run, the Kineceleran would run at a fast speed, ending Max's life, leaving only his leg remaining.
Killing Spree and Confrontation with Vilgax[]
While it wasn't fully explained what Ben did following the murder of his family, one could assume that Ben became homeless and wandered off.
During this time, it's implied that the Carnitrix detected other presences as threats and activated, causing Ben to go on a murderous spree. In one particular day, he was found by a peculiar plumber, Vilgax, who had been looking for the Carnitrix and its user for quite some time now.
Vilgax fought valiently, even having the upper hand against Ben's aliens and having a big chance to win over-all[1]. However, this wouldn't last long, as Ben would eventually overpower him and kill him.[2]
Battle with Malware[]
At one point, Ben faced off against Malware, one of Azmuth's previous creations. During this battle, Malware was able to delete at least one sample from the Carnitrix, that being XLR8.[3][4] While this confrontation wasn't elaborated upon, it's evident that Malware failed to kill Ben, and the Carnitrix's reign of terror continued.
Multiversal Madness[]
Somehow, the military caught on to his killing spree and were quick to dispatch an entire platoon on the boy, but they inadvertedly caused the Carnitrix to detect all of them at once, causing the watch to transform Ben into the strongest alien available: Alien X. As Alien X, Ben deleted his own universe and started wandering the Omniverse in search for more to destroy.
Taking notice of this, Professor Paradox reunited an army of Multiversal Bens, much like he did before, to put an end to this threat once and for all. The Ben 10K of the Prime Timeline was the one to effectively take him out while at the same time preserving his life, as he stood outside of the range of the Carnitrix's Threat Detection system and attacked the watch with Atomic-X, destroying Ben's left arm in the process.
Time Paradox[]
Ben's universe was restored thanks to the help of its Celestialsapiens, and he was quickly depatched Ben in there. Being traumatized and perhaps even still influenced by the Carnitrix's DNA fusion system, Ben would have recurrent visions of his aliens and even the creator of the device himself. This would continue on until he was a full grown adult.
One day, Professor Paradox visited Ben to check in on him, only for him to ask to turn back time into the moment he got the Carnitrix to avoid that any of the events that have effectively ruined his life ever happened. After some arguing, Paradox finally agreed, but made it clear to Ben that he would vanish to avoid any paradoxes. Ben acknowledged this, and stepped into the time portal.
As promised, Ben appeared in the past, mere moments before the Carnitrix bonded to him. Ben ran to his younger self and put his hand on his shoulder, saying that it's better to leave it there. The younger Ben ran away, and then his future self started to vanish, going out with a smile.
It is unknown what the fate of the Carnitrix is in this altered timeline, but one says that, Carnibal099 said that Paradox took away the Carnitrix so that the device doesn't possess anyone else.
Powers and Abilities[]
Canonical[]
- Prototype Carnitrix: Like many other Bens, he wields his universe's equivalent of the Omnitrix, the Carnitrix, a DNA altering device that transforms Ben into 10 murderous aliens allowing him to utilize all their powers and abilities to cause terror and suffering without control of his transformation. This device, however, was not made with the same intentions as the one seen in the Prime Timeline. Instead, the Carnitrix was created by Azmuth to enslave any non-galvanic species in the universe, as he saw them as the superior race. However, Azmuth wasn't able to finish the prototype and was forced to send it off to Earth.[5] Canibal099 has acknowledged that the Carnitrix can recalibrate under situations of extreme stress[6], but that Ben has canonically never achieved this.[7]
- Threat Detection: The watch is able to detect anything that may be considered a threat on a 20 mile radius and only transforms the user once the threat is detected since it couldn't activated on his own.[8] This can fail however, and sometimes make Ben transform for little to no reason, like a small scratch.[9]
- Transformations: After detecting a threat, the Carnitrix can use its tendrils to alter its user's DNA and transform them into an animalistic version of an alien.[10] Since the device wasn't finished, the process is excruciating and the user will be consumed by the alien's instincts, thus becoming a savage incapable of controlling themself, yet somehow still aware of their every move. The prototype's malfunctions have also resulted in the aliens "mutating" and gaining properties of both genders without taking the user's gender into consideration[11].
- Heatblast: The Carnitrix's savage sample of a Pyronite. This form can control and absorb fire. It was this form that murdered Gwen via a fireball.
- XLR8: The Carnitrix's savage sample of a Kineceleran and the official mascot of the AU. It is capable of moving at incredible speeds at around 700 km (434 miles) per hour. Such speeds were able to obliterate normal humans by simply colliding into them, as shown with Max. This XLR8 is significantly slower than the original sample, and it seemingly has sentience of its own, as it was described as having a "Manipulating, lying, sarcastic, sadistic, mocking, etc." personality.[12] It was identified as a mostly female transformation by Canibal.[11] XLR8 was deleted by Malware during the latter's battle with Ben.[3]
- Fourarms: The Carnitrix's savage sample of a Tetramand. While left unseen in most media, it's heavily implied that the Carnitrix had turned Ben into them an unspecified amount of time after killing Max and Gwen. Because of the Carnitrix's malfunctions, they are presumably as strong as a female Tetramand.
- Ghostfreak: The Carnitrix's savage sample of the Ectonurite Zs'Skayr. While left unseen in most media, it's heavily implied that the Carnitrix had turned Ben into him an unspecified amount of time after killing Max and Gwen. Despite his Ectonurite nature, Zs'Skayr was consumed by the modifications done to his DNA to the point he isn't conscious anymore.[13]
- Highbreed Transformation: The Carnitrix's savage sample of a Highbreed. Little is known about it, other than the fact Azmuth scanned their DNA shortly before exterminating the entire race.
- Alien X: The Carnitrix's savage sample of a Celestialsapien, while not as powerful as its prime counterpart, it's said that his DNA was combined with that of Azmuth's and that he lacks a Bellicus and Serena since he "disposed" of them. It's heavily implied that he's in reality Azmuth himself.
- Regeneration: The transformation process of the Carnitrix is extremely painful which as such, the Carntirix would repair damage that happened because of the transformation.
- Alien Disorder:[14] The Alien Disorder is a mental disorder developed by Ben after the Carnitrix was destroyed by Ben 10K. Apparently, the device had bonded with Ben to such an extent the aliens in it were still able to access his mind, causing him endless nightmares and to hallucinate with them. It's implied that the aliens could possess Ben, or at least influence him to do things.

Notes[]
- This Ben only had 9 aliens of the original roster in his watch, with the difference being the early addition of Alien X. It is still unknown if this Ben also unlocked the aliens his main timeline did in the original Ben 10.
- The Carnitrix lacks a Galvan DNA sample, as the device was always destined to be used by Azmuth.[15]
- Canibal099 has teased an official comic of the Carnitrix continuity on his Twitter account[16], letting him fully express his creativity without recurring to TikTok slideshows and other artist's webcomics.
- Carnitrix-wielding versions of the Alternate Bens seen in And Then There Were None exist, with the exception of Ben 23.[17] Apparently, this also means that there's a Ben 10K that "learned" how to use the device on his advantage.[18] Prototype designs of some of the Alternate Carnitrix users have been revealed by Canibal.[19]
- This version of Ben 10K has been compared to Thragg from the Image Comics franchise.[20] This is reinforced in his prototype design, which clearly takes inspiration from Thragg's post-Regent design. He seems to have his own version of the Biomnitrix.
- Nega Ben seems to have been consumed by Ectonurite DNA, which heavily implies that Zs'Skayr was more sentient in this branch of reality than in the main one.
- Mad Ben's aesthetics seem to be more inspired on Steampunk rather than Mad Max's more post-apocalyptic ones. A respirator-like device is connected to his Carnitrix, which may imply it's the only reason he's alive.
Trivia[]
- During the mirror scene from the second part of the Carnitrix story, we can see both the faces of Four Arms and Ghostfreak, this incidents that Ben has used them offscreen during the first part of the story.
- However, This becomes true, since JHG Comics (who made the fancomic of the Carnitrix) uploaded new scenes of Carnitrix where Ben used Ghostfreak to attack few people at the mail & later used Four Arms to punch one person to death.
- XLR8 is jokingly called Papu Veloz by Canibal and other members of the community, which roughly translates to "Speedy Boi".
- Much like the original Omnitrix, the Carnitrix is able to transform the user into a Dolphin and a White Lab Mouse.[21] Curiously, the Carnitrix wouldn't do any changes to the Dolphin DNA, as they're already monsters by themselves.
- The etymology of the Carnitrix derives from the latin word Carnifex (meaning Executioner) and Omnitrix.[22]
- Canibal099, as well as TrixtheAlien, the creator of the "Chaquetrix" (pronounced Jacke-trix), are often credited with revitalizing the Spanish branch of the Ben 10 fandom after years of inactivity and content creators leaving.
- Canibal has shown disinterest in his old designs, calling them unimaginative and ugly as well as pointing out that "apparently, all [he] had to for people to like them was add blood and gore randomly."[23] Right now, his vision for the alien's designs has changed from forcibly making them look scary to make them look like actual savage monsters. [24]
- This Ben shares similarities with Evil Alien X from Alien X-tinction.
- Both of them are evil versions of their main counterpart who are broken.
- Both of them wore the same T-Shirt in their adult forms that the Reboot Ben 10,000 wore during Ben 10,010 (It was also the same inverted T-Shirt that the OG Ben 10,000 wore during his debut episode).
- Both of their Gwen & Grandpa Max are deceased (But their cause of deaths are different: In Evil Alien X's timeline, Gwen & Grandpa Max were killed by Vilgax, but in the Carnitrix timeline, Ben himself killed Gwen & Grandpa Max).
- And because of this, they both even blame their own Omnitrices for the cause/reason of their Cousin's & Grandfather's death.
- They both became Multiversal threats by becoming Alien X.
- Both of their Alien Xs are weaker than the standard Alien X of the Classic continuity.
- Both of them used Four Arms.
- They both even killed their own universe's Vilgax.
- The Carnitrix itself shares similarities with the Nemetrix of the Prime Timeline.
- Both are devices created exclusively for combat and to attack members of other species more effectively, but while the Carnitrix was made with xenophobic intentions in mind, the Nemetrix was created to simply counter Ben Tennyson's aliens.
- Both will transform a sentient user into animalistic beasts that follows their race's instincts.
- As it turns out, both devices were made with the help of Khyber.
- The Carnitrix itself also shares some similarities with the Ultimatrix of the Prime Timeline.
- Both of the Omnitrices were created by both villians exclusively for combat (but however, Carnitrix was created to cause endless pain across the universe, the Ultimatrix was made simply so that, Albedo could return back to his Galvan form & to counter Ben Tennyson's aliens)
- Both will transform their aliens where they lose their control & the aliens starts to control them (However, in Ultimatrix's case, this was only in The Ultimate Sacrifice when the sentient Ultimate Aliens took control over Ben).
- This Ben also shares similarities with The Batman Who Laughs:
- Both of them are also evil versions of their main counterparts who are also Broken/Influenced.
- Both of them became evil after being taken over by something (Ben by the Carnitrix & Batman Who Laughs by the Joker's Infective Toxins).
- After being taken over, both of them started taking the lives of millions of innonect people.
- They both even killed their family/friends (Ben killing Gwen & Grandpa & Batman Who Laughs killing the whole Justice League as well as the Bat-family).
- They both even became Multiversal Threats by transforming into their most strongest forms (Alien X & The Darkest Knight).
- The Only Difference is that Ben is Tragic & Batman Who Laughs is Pure Evil.
- He even shares similarities with Infinity Ultron/UltraVision from What If?.
- Both are also versions of their main counterparts who are Broken/Influenced.
- They both became evil by being taken over by something (Ben by the Carnitrix & Vision after having Ultron's consciousness downloaded into him).
- After take over, both of them started taking the lives of millions of innonect people.
- As it turns out, they both were successful in killing entire humanity (However, Ben did that with the help of Alien X wheras Ultron was able to do that in Vision's body).
- They both even killed their own loved ones (Ben killing Gwen & Grandpa Max & Vision killing the whole Avengers group).
- They both transformed into their most powerful forms (Alien X & Infinity Ultron) & became a threat to the Multiversal.
- Both were anyway defeated & later, they got deleted/erased. This prevented them from being a karma houndini in the slightest.
