|Quote="It's Clobberin' Time!"
|DOB=30 August 1982
|Height=6'
|Weight=500+ lbs.
|Hair=Bald
|Eyes=Blue
|Profile=.
|Abilities=INDOMITABLE WILL
One of Ben's remarkable qualities is his extreme willpower. Whatever obstacles may come, he would try until he overcomes them or dies. In fact, during one fight, despite suffering severe injuries, he kept coming back, making his opponent remark that while he could break every bone in Ben's body, he could never defeat him, as he could never break Ben's spirit, and forfeited the fight so that he wouldn't be forced to hurt Ben anymore.

SENSORY ADAPTATION
Though his senses aren't superhumanly acute, his five senses can withstand greater amounts of sensory stimuli than he could when he was a normal human being, with no reduced sensitivity. This was demonstrated during the Fantastic Four's first fight with the Hulk. While the sonic boom caused by Hulk's thunderclap knocked out the rest of the group, Ben was barely phased, only sent slightly back due to the accompanying shockwaves.

SUPERHUMAN DURABILITY
Ben possesses a smooth, rock-like hide as a result of exposure to cosmic rays. The mutagenic process caused his musculature, bone structure, internal organ composition, soft tissue structure, and skin to greatly increase in toughness and density. The rock-like composition of Ben's body renders him highly resistant to physical injury. Ben's body can resist extremely powerful impact forces, such as the force of the Hulk's punches (the Hulk is far above class 100, which makes his punches devastatingly strong). He can also withstand exposure to high levels of explosives, such as being struck full with bazooka shells, without sustaining injury. His body can also withstand extreme temperatures. However he couldn't withstand being slashed by Wolverine's adamantium claws, and sustained facial injury, making adamantium one of the few things that can pierce Ben's nearly impenetrable body.

SUPERHUMAN STAMINA
Ben's advanced musculature produces considerably less fatigue toxins during physical activity than the musculature of a normal human. At his peak, he can exert himself for about 24 hours before the build up of fatigue toxins in his blood begins to affect him. Incidentally, Ben's lungs are of greater volume and efficiency than a normal man's, enabling him to hold his breath underwater for up to 9 minutes, despite the fact that he used to smoke.

SUPERHUMAN STRENGTH
Ben's primary superhuman power is his great physical strength. Initially, he was only strong enough to ten tons but over the years, through rigorous training and further mutation his strength has dramatically increased to the point where he can lift well over 100 tons (sometimes referred to as Class 100). And he is STILL getting stronger. He can deadlift even more weight, exponentially, basically using his strength times his durability to act as a prop for much heavier items. His feats have included successfully holding back a giant alien spacecraft from jettisoning from Earth, lifting an oil rig and stopping a multiple story building from falling over and lifting it back into place. Other feats include holding bridges main cables together for an extended period.
|Skills=ASTRONAUT
Ben is a fully trained NASA astronaut as well as a pilot, versed in all the technical and survival skills required for manned space missions.

ATHLETE
Even before his transformation Ben was a skilled athlete, especially in the sport of Football.

BRAWLER
Ben has been trained in military hand-to-hand combat techniques, he has trained and competed as an amateur boxer, he is a very skilled wrestler and he has years of street-fighting experience from growing up on the mean streets of New York City where he had many altercations due to his gang involvement. He has trained in judo and jujitsu. Ben has combined this training and experience into his own unique and effective style of brawling, which he has used quite effectively against a veritable 'who's who' of strongmen in the comic universe (both heroes and villains); many of whom are physically stronger and/or more durable than he is.

ENGINEER
Contrary to what people may think, Ben isn't simple. In fact he has multiple degrees in engineering including Mechanical, Structural, Aeronautical and Astronautical. He may not be at Reeds level, or even a PhD, but he is more than capable of repairing, building and even designing complex mechanical machines

GAMBLER
Not quite a vice, Ben is a skilled gambler especially in the game of Poker. He is renowned for his travelling poker game, which heroes and villains alike secretly clamor for an invitation to.

MUSICIAN
Ben is a skilled Saxophone player.

PILOT
A skilled test pilot for the Marines, then for NASA, Ben is trained, experienced and highly skilled at piloting a multitude of varied aircraft; including many invented by his friend and teammate Reed Richards.
|Resources=CELEBRITY
Due to the reputation of the Fantastic Four, Ben has connections with other groups and can call on them for assistance when needed.

THE FANTASTIC FOUR
As a member of the founding family for superheroes, Benn has access to any and all resources that the Fantastic Four have made, or will make, available. From unstable molecules (for clothes) to the many vehicles (Fantasticar, Pogo-Plane, etc) to a whole range of strange and wonderful devices (Universal Translator, H.E.R.B.I.E., Computers) designed and built by his best friend. And, of course, he has access to the Fantastic Four themselves.
|Weaknesses=DEPRESSION
The world may see The Thing as a Pleasantly Grump but otherwise happy monster, but there are just as many people who see JUST the monster. His friends sometimes think he has gotten used to his status but deep inside he is lonely ad depressed a lot of the time and any spark of hope that could alleviate those can sometimes be used to manipulate him.

FAMILY
His greatest strength is also his greatest weakness. Ben loves his family more than anything else in the whole universe and will do whatever he can to protect them, especially his godchildren Franklin and Valeria. He would not only risk himself and others to protect them, but would sacrifice his very life to ensure their safety, no matter how small the chance.

PROTECT THE INNOCENT
As much collateral damage as he caused in his career as a superhero, Ben has an undying guilt about those who have been hurt by his and other heroes actions. He will risk himself to save an innocent person even if it means the mission fails.
