Kylo Ren wears a mask that alters voice similar to that of his idol, Darth Vader. His blade, based on a design dating back to the Great Scourge of Malachor, relies upon a cracked crystal that could barely contain the power of the sword, necessitating lateral plasma vents producing its signature crossguard quillons. His true fear is that he would never be as powerful as his grandfather, being unable to control his anger and throwing dramatic tantrums in which he might lash out with his lightsaber at anything within sight. In spite of his commitment to Snoke and the dark side, he constantly feels the pull of the light and his family, thus struggles to keep himself disconnected from his former life. Snoke thinks Ren is an ideal embodiment of the Force, a focal point of both light and dark.
