Last appearance

day four.wmv summary (mentioned)
Methods of Revolution (Ben.wmv) (actual)

"He didn't have many friends. All he wanted was to be his favorite hero from his favorite videogame. They knew full well what they were doing to him - he was their first test."

Ben was a member of the Moon Children, previously thought to be the owner of the haunted Majora's Mask cartridge prior to the old man. His ascension resulted in the creation of BEN, an evil entity that would terrorize Jadusable before seemingly escaping into the Internet and turning dormant for ten years.

History

April 23, 2002

Ben was subjected to an attempted Moon Children ritual called ascension. The details are unknown, but the method was by drowning. What was implicitly the resulting creation was sealed inside a copy of The Legend of Zelda: Majora's Mask, and kept by an old man for eight years.

Haunted Cartridge Arc

In the summary for day four.wmv, Jadusable receives the haunted cartridge from the old man, who said it used to belong to a kid around Jadusable's age who is no longer around, then tells him "goodbye Ben" as he's leaving. After realizing what the old man said, he understands that the cartridge used to belong to Ben, who may have been the grandson of the old man.

In the summary for BEN.wmv, Jadusable recounts an encounter with the old man's neighbor, in which he describes in sparse detail that eight years prior, on April 23, a kid from the neighborhood had an accident.

Throughout Jadusable's time playing the game, Ben would appear frequently in the form of the Elegy of Emptiness statue.

Awakening Arc

Almost a decade later, in Methods of Revolution (Ben.wmv), the haunted cartridge finds its way to the third player, Sarah, who plays it. The game places her in a cutscene environment which isn't normally accessible, when Sarah looks up, she sees Kelbris/The Father staring down at her, prompting her to run until she falls out of the game area. Here she is comforted by a friendly entity claiming to be Ben, who asks her to play a song for him.

Soon after, a page for Ben appeared on the Methods of Revolution website. It contained the following:

"can you hear me? i dont think he wants us to talk to each other…. I”m sorry if I got you in trouble.

"there were others here that came before too, but i learned my lesson with them. i dont want you to leave me too, so lets play together, ok?"

The page included a download link to the background music that played when Ben began talking to Sarah. Several days later, below the download link, text was inserted saying: "i know lots of fun games like hide n seek".

In The Truth.wmv, Sarah played the Song of Healing for Ben. After spending a few minutes wary of approaching the statues in the distance, she was given a mask that transformed Link into his adult form from Ocarina of Time. In The Last Hero.wmv, Ifrit appears to her in the Clock Tower and explains that the Elegy statues have always been Ben, trapped inside but unable to do anything else, suffering a fate worse than death, and that Jadusable's Fourth Day glitch allowed him the ability to appear at will.

Personality

Very little is known about Ben's personality, but he idolized Link from The Legend of Zelda: Majora's Mask and wished to be like him. His page on methodsofrevolution.com also shows that he enjoyed playing games with others, such as hide and seek.
