Biography
He is the Tertius, the third in command of the Silver, and one of the four lieutenants of the Solis Invicti, reporting to Drew as Secundus.

In A Bargain in Silver, he initially befriends Emmy. He tells her that Drew killed her friends at Parker's in cold blood, which causes her a lot of emotional turmoil; in fact, it was Benedict who killed them.

He wants to kill Emmy in order to kill Drew by exploiting Drew's silvering, so that he can gain the role of Secundus. He thinks he may even take down Sol by killing Emmy too, and become Primus. He reveals that it was him who pushed her off the balcony at Parker's, and also him who put the Weeper in the dormitory, and who had locked her in with Charles.

Personality and traits
Benedict has short brown hair which he wears pushed back from his forehead. He is very muscular - Emmy describes him looking like he is on a large amount of steroids. Jack describes him as handsome, but with a face 'made for scowling' and 'so many muscles that it's a miracle he can fit into his clothes'. Though he sometimes puts on a kind face (such as when trying to convince Emmy to trust him), he is very cruel and thinks of humans as worthless cattle. He enjoys killing.
