Ren (Knights of Ren)

"I am called Ren. But that's not my name."

- Ren

"The Ren just is. It lives, and it consumes, and it doesn't apologize. It is its nature and nothing else. I believe in that principle on a deep, deep level."

- Ren

The man known as "Ren" is a minor antagonist in the Star Wars franchise, featuring in the Star Wars: Rise of Kylo Ren comic miniseries.

Ren was the charismatic and enigmatic leader of the Knights of Ren, and the predecessor to Kylo Ren. He was Force-sensitive and wielded a red-bladed lightsaber.

He lived by the "Ren" ideology, a code of living which consisted of Ren doing anything he wanted without worrying for those he might hurt in the process.

Personality
Despite being a mass murderer and a user of the Dark Side, Ren was polite and friendly to those he crossed paths with. Ren's perceived charisma was a faux, however, as he was completely willing to kill those he was friendly to if he felt the urge to. He was a passionate believer in the "Ren" ideology.

Mirroring the "Ren" ideology, Ren had no remorse. He was completely willing to kill innocents, often enjoying the depraved act.
