Ben

Ben Clark is a protagonist in School Bus Graveyard. He debuted in Episode 1, and is known for being quiet. Physical Appearance Ben Clark is a tall boy, standing at 6'0. He has tan skin and light brown eyes, with thick black eyebrows. He has short spiked hair that is greyish brown in color. He's usually seen wearing the same dark grey shirt and a pair of jeans. In the phantom dimension, he can be seen wearing the black protective suit that was purchased by Aiden.

Personality Ben is a quiet boy. He seems to have a good heart, often caring for his friends. Ben used to be known as a gentle giant who loved to sing. However, that changed after Shane, one of Ben's bullies, choked him to the point of voice box damage. After this incident, he became selectively mute and got into street fighting to tale out the anger he has for Shane, which eventually led to him fighting (And winning) against a boy related to a gang member. Due to this, he and his family ended up in danger- Which caused Ben to have to move in with his cousin's family. He can roughly speak, he just dislikes his voice, so he doesn't. He tends to listen to music often, enjoying it, whilst also attempting to avoid anything that may trigger trauma or an anger meltdown. He carry a sketchbook around. His therapist told him to carry it with the intent to draw and release any anger he may inhabit, but he instead uses it to write his thoughts and express them to the group without speaking. Relationships William Clark William is Ben's father. He, as noted by Lily, is good with injury.

Naomi Clark Naomi is Ben's mother. She is friendly and the voice of reason between she and her sister Jessica.

Jessica Clark She calls Ben "Benny" instead of just Ben.

Aiden Clark Ben's cousin. He always follows Aiden around, since he usually doesn't do much else. Aiden serves as a way to keep Ben under control, as Aiden states he has anger issues.

Lily Clark Ben's younger sister. It's clear they have a close-knit relationship, as after a while of seeing phantoms alongside she and Ben's parents (William and Naomi Clark) Lily states that she's ready to fight them, since she's strong like Ben.

Ashlyn Banner Ben wraps up Ashlyn when she's injured, and tends to share her views on things, such as when Aiden wanted to stay back to fight the phantoms, and he turned around with Ashlyn (Although silent) to tell Aiden to just leave it. other then that they dont really speak, in a flashback ben is doing something to ashlyn's braids

Taylor Hernandez Ben seems to have a minor crush on Taylor, likely caused from her kindness towards him, such as when she told him his barbed wire idea was good, how she comforts him when things go wrong, worries for his physical and mental health, and asked to listen to music with him. Likewise, when Aiden told the group about Ben's reason for selective mutism, Taylor was the first to thank him for allowing the story to be told.

Trivia Ben's mutism is selective. Aiden says that he can talk, but doesn't like the sound of his damaged voice, so he just doesn't. Ben has the entire first season of Danny Phantom memorized. Ben sang as a child, so it can be inferred he's musically apt.
