Ren Amaki (天木蓮 Amagi Ren) is a jōnin of Kirigakure's Amaki clan. Renowned as the White Flash of the Mist (霧の白い閃光 Kiri no shiroi senkō), and is a member of the Seven Ninja Swordsmen of the Mist. He is the sole survivor of Team Chiizu lead by his former sensei Chiizu Jigoku before his banishment.
==Background==
=== Early Life ===
Ren was born into the Amaki Clan of Kirigakure during the era of the Bloody Mist.
=== Kiri Academy ===
Ren took part in the village's barbaric ritual where Academy students would be forced to kill each other in order to graduate.
the class's last graduation is a battle royale against his classroom with only the one survivor allowed to pass and become a ninja of the mist. The classmates begin to kill each other in an all out massacre. As Ren comes out as the sole survivor of the test, he is appointed by his instructors as a full feldge ninja
=== Genin ===
After he graduated from Kiri's Ninja Academy, Ren was teamed with two other shinobi's who were also survived their graduation tests to and was added to Team Chiizu under the leadership of Chiizu Jigoku.
At some point during time as a genin, Ren was asigned to a C-Rank solo mission on the outskirts of the contry when shinobi of the Kumo intervened with the knowledge of plot that Ren was sent ---- and the mission escalated beyond his control as he was pursued by a battalion of Kumo shinobi's; in truth, this was a plot orchestrated by Chiizu who leaked false information to the Kumo shinobi's in order to sabotage his mission. In a brutal struggle to escape his pursuers, Ren found himself in the Rakusa Riverlands, the residence of the Eels. Ren was able to rest and recover from his injuries. The residents even trained Ren in their ways, most prominently Lightning Release. Once he was fully recovered and mastered his training he was able to return home his village where rumors of his death has already sprouted throughout his peers.
=== Chunin ===
=== Seven Ninja Swordsman ===
Despite all his accomplishments and power he has obtained, the majority of Kiri openly ostracised and resented Ren for being the student of Chiizu and kept their distance from him. Many even viewed Ren as the second coming of Chiizu, believing him to be secretly plotting to continue the destruction Chiizu started, his mere presence made the villagers frightened of him; adults avoided him and, when they couldn't, treated him harshly while children would run from him on sight. Even his own allies, the Seven Swordsmen of the Mist maintain their distrust and suspicions of him and keep close watch of his actions.

====Amaki Clan Techniques====
====Kenjutsu====
As a Kiri-nin, Ren is one of the Seven Swordsmen of the Mist, a group composed of the village's top swordsmen. Ren's signature weapon is the Kiba, twin swords imbued with lightning, considered the sharpest swords ever made, that could cut through anything. Ren has developed immense mastery of the Kiba, dual-wielding the two in battle with great power and skill, many of sword style attacks use both of the blades to strike opponents, cutting them multiple times or cutting multiple opponents at the same time, even incorporating circular motion techniques to effectively use its unique shape to the fullest. He is also able to effectively use both of his swords to parry attacks, and can even counter attacks performed by multiple opponents at once. Ren has shown little issue dueling against opponents wielding more swords than him.
This twin pair of weapons has the unique ability to release Lightning Release, granting enhanced cutting power in a manner similar to the high-frequency vibrations of lightning-based chakra flow, greatly increasing its penetrating power. This allows him to produce and manipulate lightning and electricity at his will, having complete control over its manifestation. He can attack with a single or both swords to generate electrical discharges and they perform much faster and more easily than normal lightning jutsu's. Enemies are dissuaded from clashing against his swords — directly with their body or a conductive weapon — lest they be electrocuted, thus affording a melee-combat advantage. He poses a great threat up close seeing as they can electrically shock and burn people on contact, but his electrocuting potential is not limited to close range, as he can conjure up vast amounts of electricity to launch as long-ranged blasts (or send through conductive surfaces like Water), striking farer-off targets. These attacks can be shapeless masses of lightning, focused or spread out, sent directly at opposition along a forward path, or made to crash down from above like natural lightning. The effects of the blast depends on his own ability. 
When Ren attempts to use non-lethal force against opponents, he will attack with the Kiba still in its sheath, ceasing its ability and rendering its cutting power, though his skills and strength makes these blows extremely powerful regardless, resolving to unsheath the kiba only when forced to.
Although Ren is famous for wielding his two swords, he is proficient enough to wield one. In the event that he either opts to hold the swords on top of each other as one or does not have the second sword in possession, Ren would instead use single swordmanship in fighting against an opponent. Having gotten used to this method, he can defeat multiple powerful opponents with a single sword.
====Nature Transformation ====
Ren's natural affinity is Water Release and possesses great skill in Lightning Release techniques. As a shinobi of Kiri, he has a strong aptitude for Water Release, mastering the villages's various signature water techiniques years before becoming a genin, a feat which greatly shocked the villages superiors. He can use a few water techniques without a nearby water source and use its source to perform other forms of techniques, and is able to produce massive offensive, and defensive structures. He could perform several techniques at once while keeping a separate one active, given he can keep an opponent trapped in the Water Prison Technique while at the same time attacking others with a water clone. He could maintain several of these clones at the same time, often using them as diversions. He also showed proficiency in large-scale, highly destructive water-attacks from launching powerful torrents of water.
Ren has a natural affinity to Lightning Release, making first use of it during his time training in the Rakusa Riverlands. His proficiency in this nature has made him just as skilled as any shinobi of Kumogakure. By coating him in Lightning Release: Lightning Cloak, he concentrates and clads the lightning onto himself and allows it to carry him, which he can then move at the speed of lightning, allowing him to zip into and out of sight, cross large distances nigh-instantaneously, dodge most attacks, and overtake any fleeing target. He also uses it conjunction with his Water Release to channel lightning currents through the to cause the lightning to spread and envelope the water entirely in order to reach its target and electrocute them. It also provides increase in devastating power to his Water Techniques. Under the right weather conditions, he can take control and manipulate natural lightning to launch powerful strikes at speeds that are too difficult to avoid. 
It was because of his specialty in the Lightning Release that was the reason he was given the Kiba, with its abilities Ren is capable of unleashing even greater lightning techniques, bypassing the use of hand signs, allowing kiba to perform them in its place. With his unusual fighting style combined with his techniques he developed a unique way to use its power to its full capability. His exploits with the Lightning Release technique gained him the moniker "White Flash of the Mist (霧の白い閃光 Kiri no shiroi senkō)" allowing him to hold out his swords, dashes forward at blinding speeds and slashes his opponent faster than they can react, before moving on to his next target. This technique is extremely versatile and its movements are described to be akin to "lightning ripping through the air". This method is very effective, combined with ability to bypass the use of hand signs, he is capable of striking down opponents before they can even resort to use their own jutsu's, thus living up to the moniker he goes by.
===Genjutsu===
Ren specialises in genjutsu, which involves visualization through his mist. Ren can use genjutsu to distort his target's sense of surrounding and cause psychological confusion on every opponents caught inside, letting them succumb to chaos and discord while he safely watches, ending the fight before he even needs to reveal himself to them. Regarded as one of Kirigakure's best users, as his illusions has remarkable potency and are able to seamlessly affect his targets without them realising it - despite the target being on guard.
