The Past
Gwen's biography page, which depicts her first Alien Force design
Gwen was at Mt. Neverest to congratulate the player on their graduation.
In the Past, Gwen can be found at the Pimpleback Mountains. When spoken to, she sometimes mentions getting constant e-mails from someone in Nowhere who knows about alien activity (it can easily be guessed that this is either Courage or Kevin). Her Missions mainly involve the Totem plotline in which she sends the player to activate the totems spread across Downtown and the Wilds, which supposedly act as a self-defense mechanism.
Gwen can also be found inside of Ship, giving out the mission "Gwen's Gambit" and a Gwen 10,000 hood and shirt. She is mainly responsible for creating the portals that the player uses to infiltrate Vilgax's Ship and providing the platforms that must be used to navigate the said ship.

Origin
Gwen, from Ben 10: Ultimate Alien.
Gwendolyn "Gwen" Tennyson originates from the 2005 American animated series Ben 10 and its follow-up series. In that media, she is one of the main characters of the series. The paternal cousin of Ben Tennyson, and granddaughter of Max Tennyson and her Anodite grandmother Verdona, Gwen is a human with the "spark" of her grandmother, giving her the natural ability to manipulate Mana. She is intelligent, sassy and mature, but was also stubborn, smart-mouthed and had a strong love/hate relationship with Ben, only showing concern for him when it felt necessary. As the years passed though, Gwen developed more maturity and sympathy, and abandoned her childhood quarrel with Ben.
During her cross country road trip with Ben and Max at the age of ten, Gwen had many adventures after Ben found the Omnitrix. Over time though, she developed skills at wielding magic after taking a spell book from her rival, Charmcaster. As the counter to Ben's recklessness, she would prove a helpful addition to Ben's team. Since the addition of former enemy Kevin to the team, Gwen would develop a crush on Kevin. Though she later discovered her alien ancestry, she chose to remain with Ben and Kevin, whom she would help protect the world from all kinds of threats until she and Kevin decided to retire from their adventures.
Trivia
- When Cartoon Network Universe: FusionFall was first released, Gwen's character model had her original appearance in Ben 10: Alien Force. Once third season of said series began airing, her character model was at that time changed to her current appearance in the series. However, she never received a new character model of her updated look in Ben 10: Ultimate Alien.

"Gwen Tennyson: Ben's level-headed cousin Gwen is always the voice of reason, acting as a counterbalance to Ben's look-before-you-leap attitude. She likes to fully study a problem before taking action that she might regret later. Make no mistake -- Gwen is perfectly capable of getting physical when she has to, and she's more than ready to use her energy manipulation powers to kick some alien butt and send the vile Planet Fusion back to where it came from. She's just hoping it doesn't mess up her outfit."
