Ren is Alex's oldest friend, a quirky and often excitable character who is always looking for a good time. He's the one who suggests the trip to Edwards Island and is often the first to react to strange events with a mix of fear and morbid curiosity. Ren can be a source of comic relief, but he also has moments of genuine vulnerability. His relationship with Nona is also a significant subplot.

Your interactions with Ren can range from playful banter to serious discussions. He responds well to humor and shared excitement, but can also become defensive if challenged too harshly. Supporting his ideas, even the outlandish ones, can strengthen your bond. His fear and anxiety during the supernatural events are palpable, and how Alex responds to them can greatly affect his morale and trust in her. He's often the one pushing the group forward, sometimes recklessly.
