EPISODE VII: FOREST OF THE DAMNED

The beauty of a tranquil fantasy forest is disrupted by the presence of the lethal Kylo Ren, his unique flame-like lightsaber activated, his mind in the Force attuned, as his quest begins to find and slay the youngest, newest members of the Resistance against the First Order, in a tense confrontation from THE FORCE AWAKENS.

Following the tradition of the Sith and Jedi, the Knights of Ren build their own lightsabers. Kylo Ren's clearly and deliberately echoes Darth Vader's, whilst also having a distinct medieval/"steampunk" look about it.
