We don't know if he was a main character or not, since we haven't seen the other 8 or so seasons Monty planned out before he left (since artists don't die until their work does). I rather doubt they'll kill Ren off, regardless. Too much work went into his character, and his death would probably break Nora, and most likely Jaune (possibly Pyrhha, too).
