Backstory:
The youngest of the Sakayama family and the most powerful due to his mastery in weather manipulation mixed with his immense resistance to psychic energy. As a child, Ren had a destiny to fulfill when he discovered he could manipulate weather. Weather manipulation, according to the houses of Voidsworn, was a difficult power to master due to its overwhelming power. Not in this case according to Ren Sakayama as he learned to master it within three months.

Once his vacationing spot in Lorelei was attacked by a Galaxia battalion that were in the process of burning down a large metropolitan city, he created a deadly hurricane that leveled the entire city along with the soldiers that were responsible for invading it. Although this raised a sense of distrust among the Warriors of Aria that were determined to defend Andromeda as much as the Voidsworn and many other factions, Ren Sakayama was to be promoted as the Shadelord of House Sakayama.

Ren Sakayama is one who manipulates weather at an almost godlike level, but usually, it requires an atmosphere to manipulate such a natural force. If he has no atmosphere to use his weather manipulating abilities, he relies on cryokinesis and aerokinesis to freeze and blow away his foes. Rumor has it that since Andromeda came to Milky Way, he built a superpower that used weather manipulation to level anything it targeted in a mountain area somewhere in Japan. This has yet to be confirmed.
