Description: Benjamin is "an oddly cheerful vampire who [looks] barely older than a boy and [seems] both utterly confident and utterly careless at the same time." Like the rest of his coven, he has "midnight hair and [an] olive-toned pallor" (Breaking Dawn, pg. 609).

Personal History--
Benjamin arrives in Forks to witness against the Volturi, along with his Egyptian coven--Tia, Amun and Kebi. Bella notes that the rest of the member of his coven seem to revolve around Benjamin, and that is because "his gift is so singular that Amun is terrified of losing him" (Breaking Dawn, pg. 610). In fact, Amun created Benjamin knowing he would be special. He tries to use Benjamin as his weapon, but Benjamin is very independent. Edward is particularly fond of him because "he has a very clear sense of right and wrong" and likes his attitude (Breaking Dawn, pg. 610).
