Delving Deeper
P E R S O N A L I T YDespite media and rumors about him, Benjamin Sanders is actually not a psychotic monster as he has been painted to be. No Ben is actually a very caring individual. He's also very protective of his friends and of his sisters. Now he might not be the most outgoing individual with new people, but after someone gets to know him a little things tend to develop a lot easier after that first couple of minutes, but don't mistake this as being antisocial. It's more like he wants to get to know people better before he'll trust them, and his standards could be considered a little more than the usual for people, but he means well with it. In the end he's just a really nice guy willing to do the bad things to protect others.
H I S T O R YBorn to a family of merchants Ben never actually knew. He was quickly adopted along with his younger sister by a young couple in the security force after his actual parents were murdered when he was only two. Upon taking him and his sister in each of their middle names were changed to a name within their new families culture, but they kept their last names as to not forget who they truly were. Thus while it was the only family Ben and his sister ever knew and loved, they also could represent their own true family.
Growing up Ben's adopted father taught him and his sister martial arts. He did this to help them learn discipline, self defense, and a big part of it was to bond with them. Now by this time they had another sibling, while not their blood, it was still their family and so they had and even younger sister at this point. The three of them were close and always spent time together. Now on the side Ben had really bonded with his father and asked to learn more within the cultures fighting styles, so his father taught him more including several sword stances and styles.
After his father taught him several of these things Ben began developing his own forms and practiced daily. He practiced throwing knives, his martial arts, his sword play, everything. It was almost like a sanctuary for him to hide away in. His sisters on the other hand stuck only with the martial arts and practiced a few times a week and were no where near as dedicated as Ben. Essentially Ben and his family had a simple life. the rest of the political problems in political world had no effect on them. Ben's parents were enforces, so whether they agreed with everything or not it wasnt their place to question. Overall their life was perfect in the simplest way.
Eventually when they had gotten older and Ben was sixteen, his sister went on a double date. When they came home late crying Ben was already concerned. When he found out the a couple of inquisitors kids had raped them that's when he comforted his sisters, put them to bed and then grabbed his twin knives. Over the next two weeks he had tracked down, kidnapped, tortured, and killed the ones responsible, and any sibblings they might have had. He would have killed the inquisitors too if it weren't for the fact that he was finally caught.
Since he was only sixteen they couldn't execute him just yet so they threw him in solitary confinement to let him rot away till his execution in two years. By then the Cerberus project was ready for it's first test subjects. Deciding that most likely everyone would die painful deaths the inquisitors of the kids Ben had murdered insisted that he take part in the trials, and so it was. That was until someone gave him a chance at life, and he took it.
