Check out Benjamin's description from the Lexicon:

Full Name: Benjamin

Status: Vampire

Originally from: Egypt

Hair color: “Midnight” (BD32)

Special Talents: Benjamin is a manipulator of elements—earth, air, fire, and water.

Family members: His mate, Tia, and Amun and his mate Kebi

Personal history: Benjamin was created by Amun knowing that the boy would be special. Amun has since been trying to turn Benjamin’s ability to manipulate earth, air,
fire, and water into a weapon, but Benjamin is very independent and
won’t be used. (BD32) He bonds quickly with many of the covens and
nomads gathered at the Cullen’s house and declares that he will stand
with them if the Volturi attack. (BD34)
