Shuren wishes to avenge Hyūi's (his brother star) death at the hands of Raoh, and he shows his commitment to this cause by lighting a funeral pyre for Hyūi which also burns down his castle, leaving him and the Red Army with no home and only a desire to fight Raoh.

'''{{nihongo|Shuren of the Flames|炎のシュレン|Honō no Shuren}}''' is one of the five members of the ''[[Nanto Gosha Sei]]''.  He is the leader of the ''Gosha Sei''{{'}}s Army of Flames and practices the ''Gosha Enjō Ken'' style, a martial art which utilizes phosphorus to generate flames.
 
After the death of [[Hyūi]], Shuren mobilized his Army of Flames against [[Raoh|Ken-oh]]'s forces in order to avenge his "brother star" and stop Ken-oh. Shuren preemptively attacked Ken-oh's army by launching innumerable arrows at them as they approached the valley. Afterward, Shuren fought against two of Ken-oh's best trained warriors before challenging the man himself. Shuren covers himself in flames and attempts to strike Ken-oh from his back, but ended up having his fist crushed, followed by his leg when he tried to kick Ken-oh. However, Shuren did not give up and decided to sacrifice his life by engulfing himself in flames and jumping onto Ken-oh. However, Shuren's attack was ineffective against Ken-oh, who proceeded to twist Shuren's neck, killing him.
 
In the anime series, Shuren holds a funeral pyre for his fallen comrade Hyūi by burning down his castle in order to ensure that his Crimson Army does not have a home to retreat to for his battle against Ken-oh. He fought against one of Ken-oh's invasion forces before challenging the main army itself.
 
In ''Yuria Den'', Shuren is given orders by [[Yuria]] to capture [[Rei]]. When Rei was disguised as a woman, Shuren saw through his disguise and attacks head on.
