Ben Saint is a webcomic artist, troll and self-proclaimed 'Dimensional Prophet of C-197'.[3] Though he had been interested in Chris for years, lecturing for two hours on Sonichu in 2016[4] and commissioning art detailing Liquid Chris's fate in the comic world,[5] he is most known for exploiting Chris and his Internet infamy in order to boost views of his own comic and solicit thousands of dollars in donations in October 2019.[6] He would provoke him by inserting Night Star, Chris's My Little Pony fan character, into his comics and role-playing with him to get him invested in the comic's plot.[1][7] Ben is a divisive figure among Christorians; some of the aspects of Ben's interactions with Chris share similarities with Alec Benson Leary and Asperchu, with a comic that clearly parodies Chris's life and antics that Chris finds offensive and attempts to change. Like many of Chris's on-line adversaries in 2019, though, Saint sometimes behaves as a white knight, including fiery protests whenever somebody refuses to use Chris's tomgirl pronouns.[3]
Chris usurps Ben's comic
“ | His strips have some catching up to do to get to this point | ” |
Chris, on his unauthorized version of events based on Ben's comic[8] |
Ben began working on a comic, which mostly serves to promote the Discord server/game Endless War, which he runs. In the comic, Night Star banishes two My Little Pony characters, Strawberry Milk and Phantom Horn, to NLACakaNM, the land of the game. The latter character is a clear parody of Christorians, so obviously that even Chris notices it. Chris took a near immediate interest in the comics, as early as 16 September. Ben and Chris presumably opened correspondence soon after. As the narrative continued, however, Chris became more displeased with the directions it took. Meanwhile Chris also tried to play Endless War, a game managed by a bot on Ben's Discord server, but was killed and became frustrated. Seeing an opportunity, Saint devoted himself to more deliberate attacks against Chris, creating a section on his Discord server for that specific purpose.[9]
This came to a head on 1 October 2019, when Chris began releasing Sonichu Special 6, his own drawings depicting what he wanted to happen in Ben's comic lore. Chris, role-playing as Magi-Chan, then sent Ben a DM both announcing/commanding that Ben make the comic as Chris willed, as well as demanding Ben provide Chris with $300.[10] Later, Chris would also return to the server and announce that he had revived himself with his goddess powers and that the bot's game was over, as Chris's comic canon had deemed it so. Unlike Sonichu #15, where the fancomic author in question approved of Chris using her work, Ben is much more resistant to Chris influencing the work, creating two concurrent and battling canons. In response to this, Ben accused Chris of committing genocide in his revisions, depicting his own characters being injured and killed by Chris's cleansing rains. Chris initially denied the charges, affirming that Ben's characters would just become normal humans.[11] Seeking to contrive an incident, Saint stated on Discord that CWCville had declared war on his own fictional city, giving a death toll of about 70,000.[12] Chris would thus concede that there had been casualties, yet that 99% of the population of Arizona (where this fictional city was placed) had survived.[13] He would regard this loss of fictional life trivial.[14] A week later, Chris would justify his overriding Ben's description of his own fictional universe by his superior psychic powers and ability to see into alternate dimensions.[15]
Saint would continue to draw his characters being massacred by the soda rain and beg Chris to stop, yet Chris maintained that he already had,[16] and that any deaths already inflicted were for the greater good. Chris tried to compose his message with a calm tone, but his annoyance at Ben still shone through, when he slipped up and ended the message writing as Magi-Chan instead of as himself.[17] Later, when Saint would depict his dead characters on a special story arc in hell,[18] or otherwise diverge his plot, Chris would demand Saint return to drawing his comic instead of pursuing his role-playing.[19] Like clockwork, white knights came in to defend Chris's actions and inject their own strain of nonsense into the mix, nominally to help Chris along. Jacob Sockness offered on 17 October to summon Jakoba, a demon god of his own invention, to demand even more reparations from Saint, yet Chris refused, instead accepting the Multidimensional White Knights' enlisting Ed Bighead, who was supposed to have became the king of Babylon in C-197 and was rallying an army to defend Chris from the slime.[20] Ben eventually relented, at least in part: he revived his characters that he had killed off earlier that month, using the same !revive command from his Discord server that Chris had used to declare himself resurrected. Chris approved, mentioning for no apparent reason at the same time that he endorses United States 2020 presidential candidate Andrew Yang.[21]
Further interactions with Ben, on Twitter as well as Discord, soon after deteriorated into continued disputes about whether or not Chris had committed fictional genocide. Accusations of hatred were common on both sides.[6] Ben would try to manipulate Chris's version of events by stating his fictional city was rained upon several time, while Chris would resist such changes to his version of events being inserted. Saint's publicity stunt was however stunted by Chris's shifting interests, as he devoted more attention to his trading card line and Jacob Sockness returned for a second round of weening after a fortnight's delay. On 19 October, Chris asserted that he had divine mandate from the CPU goddesses to supersede Ben's decisions about his comic.[22] Unlike Alec Benson Leary before him, Ben Saint has failed to gain Laughs Under Lucricities and acclaim from onlookers, but his heavy-handed approach to parody has given him a place beside the Idea Guys and Multidimensional White Knights in Christory.
