#dimension 12

So, here's my Ben design for an alternate universe (with a very self indulgent concept) that I've been wanting to do for a while now.

Ben 12, as the number suggests, got his Omnitrix at 12 instead of 10, so by the time of Omniverse, he's 18. Even in his younger years, he has some really well developed emotional intelligence and later on dedicates his time outside hero stuff to studying psychology.

Contrary to the Ben Prime, instead of physical confrontations, this Ben relies much more on actions aimed at positive psychological and emotional impact. 

In other words, Ben 12 does his best to avoid fights with the villains. He prefers to block their physical attacks and protect the people around, meanwhile trying to build an emotional connection with the opponent, see what makes them tick and try his best to help them (if it's possible).

Hi, pal! Sorry for not replying to this ask before! I just wasn't sure how to answer back then and after that got distracted with some stuff, so it slipped my memory. But now I think I've made up my mind: I decided not to include Zs'Skayr's old henchmen in my AU and instead make his henchmen from Omniverse being affiliated with him and Viktor from the start.

While I do like to have fun using underdeveloped characters in my works and adding details to them (like, I've already used some unpopular and/or very minor/one-off characters for posts and in relationships with my OCs), here I just don't really see the point in trying to work with these two in my AU because I personally see Kuphulu and Crüjo, who are basically the same characters role-wise but with unique designs, more personality and actual names, as the perfect better alternatives to Mummy and Werewolf, which felt to me less like characters and more like plot tools with two objectives: 1) helping Zs'Skayr with his plan to plunge the earth into eternal darkness, and 2) being the DNA source for Ben's aliens.

The second purpose was rendered irrelivant even in the Prime dimension since the situation was later changed, as Thep Khufan and Loboan DNA were said to have already been present in the Omnitrix and Ben just mistook the transformations being catalogued for the watch taking samples (I like this change by the way, because if the creators haven't disproved the idea of the Omnitrix obtaining the alien DNA of these two through the contact with Werewolf and Mummy, it would've worsened Azmuth's already stained image by implying that out of all the species of the Anur System he stored the only alien whose consciousness can be trapped in the watch.)

And the first purpose isn't really relevant to my AU since, with my direction of Ben slowly befriending Zs'Skayr, the whole blocking the Sun event might not even take place in Dimension 12.
