Kylo is the leader of the Knights of Ren, as well as an agent of the First Order, which is the remnant faction of the Galactic Empire and is the apprentice of Supreme Leader Snoke. He was promoted as the main antagonist, just as a campagin to missinform about the true main villain later on. He is portrayed by actor Adam Driver. ==Biography== Kylo Ren is a mysterious man who served the First Order approximately three decades after the Battle of Endor, which marked the death of Emperor Palpatine and the downfall of the Galactic Empire. He is a member of the Knights of Ren, which is an evil organization that, like the Sith, utilizes the Dark Side of the Force. He serves his Master, Supreme Leader Snoke. Though his title of "Kylo Ren" was bestowed upon him by the Knights of Ren, his birth name remains a mystery. ==Official Biography== Born as Ben Solo, offspring of Han Solo and Leia Organa. ==Characteristics== ===Personality=== As one side of him tries to fight darkness and know his family better, he is influenced by darkness as he has killed and betrayed his father Han Solo. However, near the end, he let Rey defeat him, as through her he commited suicide. Since then, his body was burried in Jakku. ===Physical Description=== Kylo Ren is a tall, dark and gangly young man. He has broad proportions, including unusually long and thin arms and legs, as well as a large nose and full lips. His hair is black, greasy and approximately chin-length. While fully clothed, Kylo wears a metal mask the envelopes his whole head, which features ornamental patterns that draw contours around his visor. His mask is designed by him to take inspiration from the late Darth Vader, who Kylo has deep knowledge of. His clothing is black-themed and tailored around his lean physique. The clothing is predominantly made from a soft, flexible material, though his belt and boots are leather-based. The most distinct physical element of Kylo, however, is his makeshift lightsaber. Its hilt is haphazardly constructed, with it being uneven and with exposed wiring. Its blade is the traditional Dark Side red, though it is shown to be unstable and does not retain the traditional uniformity of a professionally-manufactured lightsaber. Two small crossguard light blades are deployed with ignition of the weapon, giving the lightsaber resemblance to a medieval long sword. ==History== He at first appeared imprisoning Luke and Po, thus asking them were the map to Luke is. Then, he asked Hux to find the map for him, but Hux disagreed, telling Snoke about his "bigger plans for a weapon". Kylo however managed to inform Snoke about the new disterbance. Kylo Ren later captured Rey in the middle of an operation to discover the Resistance Base. However, he tried to redeem himself through reading her thoughts, discovering Han. However, she didn't trust him, which lead him to chase her with the stormtroopers. He then found Han Solo, as he almost managed to redeem himself. However, he killed Han, as the dark powers have developed in him even more. He then battled Rey in the woods, however, in the middle, he let her take over the battle and kill him by sneaking to her other side. He died, as his body got burried in Jakku. ==Gallery== Kylo Ren.jpg|Concept Art of Kylo Ren des0190.4k_PUB_STILL_PNT.1080.2.jpg|Kylo Ren in Star Wars VII trailer 2 Star-Wars-artwork-Kylo-Ren.jpg|Kylo Ren artwork Star-Wars-THe-Force-AwakensKylo-Ren-thumb.jpg|Kylo in The Force Awakens trailer I Kylo-Ren-Star-Wars-The-Force-Awakens-04.jpg|Kylo Ren's graphic promotional poster of the film alongside the new Stormtroopers Kylo Ren Without Mask.jpg|Actor Adam Driver on the set of the film as Kylo Ren Kylo Ren !0.jpg|Kylo Ren as he appears on the cover of Entertainment Weekly (August 21/28 #1377/1378)  ===Videos===  Star Wars Episode VII - The Force Awakens Official Teaser Trailer 1 (2015) Star Wars Episode VII - The Force Awakens Official Teaser Trailer 2 (2015) - Star Wars Movie HD  ==Trivia== Kylo Ren's mask shares similarities in design with Darth Vader's helmet, and Darth Revan's mask.
