Ben, originally known as Pen, is a character in Alphablocks. He is voiced by David Holt.
Appearance[]
Ben was first created when P, E, and N formed the word “pen”.
In Series 2, he was a fountain pen and was depicted in 2D, but in Series 5 and 6, he is a CG-animated rollerball pen.
Personality[]
In the episode Pen, he seems to act mischevious at first, escaping from anyone he sees, and drawing pictures that slowly become real. After he got his ink refilled, he is shown to be friendly to the other Alphablocks, drawing presents for them.
In Series 5 and 6, as the Alphablocks' helper, he seems to be kind, always accepting what other Alphablocks ask him to do. An example was in the episode "P's Perfect Painting" he writes the names of C and H's artworks after they whispered them to him.

- Ben is similar to Twenty-Two, since he appeared in one episode until Series 5, where he got redesigned.
