The '''Ren''' is a specialized utility [[shuttle]] of [[San'Shyuum]] origin that was used by the [[Covenant]].{{Ref/Reuse|warfleet}}{{Ref/Reuse|Enc22}}

==Overview==
===Design details===
The Ren shuttle is small and boxy in shape and has two small viewports on the front.{{Ref/Reuse|package}} The Ren is capable of quick, short-range travel due to its four [[impulse drive]]s and is nearly as fast and maneuverable as the [[Seraph]].{{Ref/Reuse|warfleet}}{{Ref/Reuse|Enc22}} Two of these impulse drives are mounted on "wings", much like a [[Banshee]] as well as two more at the rear.{{Ref/Reuse|package}} Although most Rens are not armed, they boast compact [[Borer|slipspace drives]] which make them valuable vehicles for traders and smugglers.{{Ref/Reuse|warfleet}}{{Ref/Reuse|Enc22}}

===Usage===
During the era of the Covenant, Rens often had the role of serving as small utility shuttles. They were sometimes used for transporting [[Minister (title)|ministers]] and other nobles within the Covenant ecclesiarchy, though its slipspace drive and high manoeuvrability later lent it well to serving as an escape craft and transport for traders and smugglers.{{Ref/Reuse|Enc22}}

==Operational History==
In [[2544]], Master Chief [[John-117]] used one while escaping [[Luro 'Taralumee]]'s [[Resplendent Fervor|assault carrier]] with [[Catherine Halsey|Dr. Halsey]] in [[Operation: WARM BLANKET]].{{Ref/Reuse|package}}

When a [[Carrow Conflict|civil war]] between the [[Sangheili]] broke out over [[Carrow]] in [[2558#September|September 2558]], several diplomats of the [[Unified Earth Government]]'s [[Diplomatic Corps]] evacuated the [[Varric-pattern heavy cruiser|cruiser]] ''[[Unwavering Discipline]]'' in a Ren.{{Ref/Reuse|envoy}}

==Production notes==
In Ancient [[Egypt]]ian mythology, a person's ''ren'', or name, was a part of their soul that would live on as long as it was spoken.
