Kylo Ren, aka Ben Solo, is to a fair degree based on EU character Jacen Solo, the son of Han and Leia who turns to the Dark Side and becomes Darth Caedus.

Kylo will likely be brought down by a female Jedi (whom he might be related to), which is again following the Jacen blueprint.

One of the strongest and most popular female Jedi from the Legends, it was Jacen's sister Jaina who defeated him. She had elements of both her parents in her character, but it perhaps Uncle Luke she resembled the most: a powerful Jedi who came close to the Dark Side, struck down an almighty Sith foe she was related to, and a fantastic young pilot who become the star of the Rogue Squadron.

NCTJ-qualified journalist. Most definitely not a racing driver. Drink too much tea; eat too much peanut butter; watch too much TV. Sadly only the latter paying off so far. A mix of wise-old man in a young man's body with a child-like wonder about him and a great otherworldly sensibility.
