Description
Benmummy
Benmummy (voiced by Richard Green) is a Thep Khufan (playing with the word Khufu, an Egyptian pharaoh) from the planet Anur Khufos. In the dark belt of planets that gird the Null Void from regular space, Anur Khufos is a world that exists below the surface of perception. It contains huge deposits of pure Corrodium, a highly radioactive metal that causes monstrous mutations in most species. The Thep Khufan are mummy-like aliens composed almost entirely of a bandage-like material, akin to the linen used on real mummies, with a solid, shell-like head. Benmummy's appearance differs slightly from the other mummy alien seen. His eyes and the gaps between his bandages glow green instead of purple. Benmummy also has black bracers and greaves, as well as a smaller mask and the Omnitrix symbol on his left shoulder. Benmummy can speak, even though the original seems to be mute.[1]

Thep Khufans can stretch their bandages to great lengths and control them even when separated from its main body. This setup also allows them to reshape their bodies at will, splitting themselves apart to dodge attacks and reforming to counter-attack. However, the material that makes up their body is relatively weak, allowing it to be torn fairly easily by strong enough beings or other equivalent forces. To compensate for its relatively weak form, these aliens can recover from basically any injury, including being torn to shreds, almost instantly and with no visible repercussions.[2] They can also survive in a vacuum.[3] When Ben first uses the form, he has trouble figuring out how to control it; Ben quickly discovers how to stretch his bandages, but has not displayed knowledge of the advanced reshaping techniques.[1] Despite the frailty of their bodies, Thep Khufans are quite strong, albe to throw beings as heavy as Diamondhead with little effort.[2]

Ben gains this form in "Under Wraps" when another mummy alien inadvertently adds its DNA to the Omnitrix, but accidentally transforms into Upgrade instead when trying to use him. Ben first uses the form in "The Return" to fight off the Yenaldooshi. The credits give the name "Benmummy," though Ben has not named it yet on-screen.[1]
