Benjamin Norris

Benjamin Norris was a Human/extraterrestrial hybrid which developed inside the body of Dr. Eric Norris after the latter had contact with a meteorite containing an unidentified alien life form. Due to absorbing Norris' genetic material, he had approximately 12% Human DNA.

From the moment Benjamin was born, Dr. Norris considered the boy to be his son, and treated him as such. After the FBI captured the infant and locked him up for study, Dr. Norris fought in court for the boy's custody and legal rights. Unfortunately, before the end of the proceedings, Benjamin Norris was brought to the tribunal and shot dead by a man named Emil who was scared of aliens, believing that they pose a threat to humanity.

Biology
Benjamin Norris was conceived as a result of the influence of an alien organism which infected Dr. Eric Norris. The parasite's influence on the host's emotional state led Norris to pursue a relationship with his colleague, Amanda Mayfield. It's been speculated that during the sexual act, the alien used Norris' sperm to conceive the child in Norris' own body: which has been described by some as Norris "impregnating himself". The embryo developed inside Norris' abdomen like a parasite and integrated itself with the host's organs to the point where surgical removal was impossible, so it continued to develop until Norris finally "gave birth" to the child.

Benjamin Norris developed as a humanoid being with cephalopod-like features, most notably two pairs of long mobile tentacles sprouting from his back. He exhibited an incredibly accelerated growth rate and enough strength to fight against multiple adult Humans at once if sufficiently threatened, although, under normal circumstances, he displayed no signs of aggressiveness.
