Tetrax Shard is a recurring character of the Ben 10 franchise. Formerly a bounty hunter who served Vilgax, Tetrax turned against him when Vilgax destroyed his home planet Petropia, later becoming an ally of Ben Tennyson. Tetrax was the last petrosapien in the universe (not counting Diamondhead) before Ben restored his homeworld and people.

He was voiced by Dave Fennoy, who also voiced Lee Everett and Lucius Fox.

Appearance[]

In the original series, Tetrax's face was the splitting image of Diamondhead's, with the exception of having green eyes instead of yellow, and his diamond skin having a slightly more blue tint. Tetrax wore a shiny grey bodysuit that had a retractable black helmet resembling a pillbug, with a small green triangle visor on the front. Since he never took off the suit, he had no exposed back spikes, and only his head and arms were shown at most. The triangle shape of his visor was also on the center of his utility belt, and there were markings resembling it on either shoulder pad.

Personality[]

Tetrax is a battle-hardened bounty hunter with a strong desire to do what is right. This is partly due to his involvement in the destruction of his home planet, Petropia.

Tetrax claims that he used to be a being who cared about no one but himself and that is what led him to become a mercenary. It was only after Vilgax destroyed Petropia that he realized the effect his actions had on his own people. That experience made Tetrax into the heroic Omnitrix guardian he became.

Upon first discovering that Ben Tennyson has the Omnitrix, he laments the fact that out of the planet's six billion inhabitants, the Omnitrix ended up on the wrist of a child. He also berates Ben's lack of strategy in regards to its use. After helping Ben to defeat the other hunters, during which Ben learns to use the Omnitrix strategically, he decides that the Omnitrix is in good hands, allowing it to remain with Ben.

Tetrax helps Ben become a better hero, teaching him to use the Omnitrix wisely. Ben later repays him by reviving the people of Petropia.

Powers and Abilities[]

Tetrax possesses the powers and abilities of his species. His body is made of organic, nearly indestructible diamond-like crystals that can refract light, causing him to be immune to most energy weapons.

Tetrax has a limited ability to regrow lost limbs, as well as alter his own physical constitution, making him able to do things such as fire crystal fragments as projectiles, turn his hands into blades, create structures out of his crystals, etc. He's shown to be much more skilled with his powers than Diamondhead.

In addition to his natural powers, Tetrax is an experienced bounty hunter with excellent fighting and strategy skills. Tetrax is also shown to be highly knowledgeable in regards to various advanced technologies, including a great understanding of how the Omnitrix works.
