Plot

See also: List of Ben 10: Alien Force episodes

Five years after the original series, a 15-year old Ben Tennyson must put the Omnitrix back on to rescue Grandpa Max from a new foe: the Highbreed and their DNAlien servants, who are joined by the Forever Knights. Unable to complete this task by himself, he is joined by his cousin Gwen and a reformed Kevin. Along the way, they meet the children of other Plumbers, many of whom have powers similar to Ben's previous alien forms as a result of an alien parent.

Characters

Main article: List of characters in Ben 10

Ben Tennyson

Ben fills the role of leader after Max disappears. The Omnitrix has been recalibrated, giving him access to a new set of alien heroes. Over the past few years, Ben has matured dramatically.

Gwen Tennyson

Now 15, Gwen is much more proficient with her powers, able to manipulate energy directly as opposed to using spells. Gwen is much calmer and grown up, nowhere near as fiery or sharp-tongued as she was five years ago.

Kevin Levin

A former nemesis of Ben, 16-year-old Kevin reforms and joins the Tennysons on their quest to repay Magister Labrid for saving him from the Forever Knights. While not as psychotic as he once was, he still desires revenge for his time in the Null Void at first, though he puts it aside to help stop the Highbreed. His abilities now allow him to absorb the properties of any solid matter he touches.

Max Tennyson

Max is a semi-retired member of the Plumbers. He disappears while investigating the Highbreed plot, leaving only a few cryptic messages for Ben to find. He is briefly reunited with his grandchildren in "Max Out", but sacrifices himself to destroy a Highbreed factory at the end of the episode.

Highbreed

The Highbreed believe themselves to be the purest of all species, and intend to cleanse the galaxy of impure lower life forms. Earth is their next stop.

DNAliens

Hybrids of humans and alien drones that serve the Highbreed, the DNAliens are able to disguise themselves as humans using special identity masks.

The Forever Knights

Alien arms dealers, the Forever Knights have worked in secret ever since their formation in the Middle Ages. Unaware of the Highbreed's true intentions, the Forever Knights are currently in business with them.
