Ren Haguro (羽黒 レン, Haguro Ren) is the resident Kamen Rider of the World of Ryuki in Kamen Rider Decade.
History[]
Ren Haguro is a former journalist of the Atashi Journal and Shinji Tatsumi's former best friend, mysteriously leaving the group three years ago without explanation. Ren has the ability to transform into Kamen Rider Knight and use the power of his Contract Monster, Darkwing. When Reiko is murdered, Ren enters the Trial to find the Rider who possesses the Time Vent Card. After defeating Scissors, Ren encounters Decade in a brief confrontation before Zolda intervenes. Later while forced to fight Shinji who accuses him murdering Reiko, Decade's fight with Imperer stops theirs. Soon after, Decade battles Knight with the former being the superior fighter until Abyss intervenes.
After defeating Odin, Ren acquires the Time Vent card at the cost of being too injured to use it himself. Shinji used the time vent and eventually, the truth about Ren leaving was revealed. Reiko is the one that asked Ren to leave temporarily, and Shinji's friendship with him is repaired.
Later appearances[]
Super Trick of the Real Criminal currently remains the last appearance of Haguro. The Knight that appears in OOO, Den-O, All Riders: Let's Go Kamen Riders and Kamen Rider × Super Sentai: Super Hero Taisen is the original Knight, Ren Akiyama.

Haguro can transform into Kamen Rider Knight's default form using his Card Deck and V Buckle upon forming a contract with Darkwing. His Visor, the Darkvisor, is a rapier that also functions as his personal weapon. In comparison to Ryuki, Knight has lower kicking power but higher jump height and running speed.
In addition to the Darkvisor, Knight can arm himself with the Winglancer (ウイングランサー, Uingu Ransā), a lance derived from Darkwing's tail, by using his Sword Vent Advent Card. The remainder of Darkwing's body can be mounted on Knight's back, where its wings become a cape. This can be done by using either his Guard Vent or Final Vent. (However, Ren is often seen transforming into Knight with the cape already equipped). When using the Guard Vent card, the wings are in their original form and close around Knight to form the Wingwall in order to protect him from attacks.
Using his Final Vent allows Knight to perform his finisher, the Flyinglancer (飛翔斬, Hishōzan, lit, "Flying Slash"), which equips him the Winglancer and Darkwing's cape form if he does not already possess them. Knight then jumps into the air and performs a drop kick while holding the Winglancer downward, resulting in it being parallel to his legs. Finally, Knight's cape forms a drill around him before he strikes the enemy.
