who is the girl in star wars force awakens
Rey (Star Wars)
Ren takes Rey prisoner and brings her before Snoke . Snoke tells her that he created the Force connection between her and Ren as a trap to reach Luke . Snoke tortures and taunts Rey , showing her the attack on the Resistance transports , and eventually orders Ren to kill her . Ren instead kills Snoke , and he and Rey fight Snoke 's guards side by side . The duel won , Ren asks Rey to join him and create a new order separate from the legacies of Snoke and Luke , but Rey refuses . In an attempt to get her to turn , Ren reveals that Rey 's parents were two - bit junk dealers who sold her off for drinking money , and are long dead . Despite the revelation , Rey refuses to join him and uses the Force to summon Luke 's lightsaber , but Ren does so too , resulting in a standoff that ultimately tears the lightsaber in two . Shortly afterwards , Resistance leader Vice Admiral Holdo rams her cruiser into Snoke 's ship , separating Rey from Ren .
