Benjamin Cross

A member of The Establishment. A renegade who delighted in "stirring the pot" by making changes to "the story of the world", he freely invented people or scenarios to spice up what he saw as a somewhat "bland narrative". He was killed by Noriko Marianna Xadium on the night of The Apollo Retrocausal Chronotic Realignment.

Legend has it his last words were "It was meaningless". The context has been lost to history.

On May 20th, 2025, somehow, Benjamin Cross returned (because "the Story demanded it".) He made a proclamation that the winners of the 2025 Budokai divisions would receive the power to change one fact about reality, which wouldn't affect memories of the past, but which would affect the future going forward, thus adding incredible stakes to that year's contest.
