Main Character and Friends

Benjamin Hewitt

"Through science, mankind has overcome our naturally frail bodies, our ancient superstitions, and other factors that have hindered our growth. Science is humanity's greatest weapon."

A fifteen year old, bespectacled bookworm, Benjamin Hewitt is our main character here. He's a huge bookworm, and has an obsession with science, not to mention a quick wit.

• Deadpan Snarker: When he loses his glasses, he becomes Sarcasm Man!
• Genius Bruiser: Ben admits that his greatest weapon is his mind.

• She Is Not My Girlfriend: The denial seems off when one considers that most of the time Ben spends with Eve is doing things that most people would attribute to a dating couple.
• Shounen Hair
• Unfazed Everyman: Ben is as new to the world of Pages as we are, so we get to learn everything at the same pace as him.
