Biography

Theodore Glass, alter-ego Ashtem, owns the Raging Bulls and secretly leads the shadowy Snake Pit Organization in Beyblade Burst Evolution, functioning as its overarching manipulator rather than a blader himself. He poaches Free De La Hoya and Trad Vasquez from rival BC Sol, then exploits Shu Kurenai's post-loss despair to remake him into the sinister Red Eye through the Requiem Project. Genuinely competitive with BC Sol's Kristina Kuroda, he's ultimately forced to abandon his plans once Valt frees Shu from Spryzen Requiem's possession.

Appearance and personality

What They Look Like, and How They Behave

Cyan eyes and hair layered in orange, dark brown and white give Theodore his look. He wears a white scarf spilling over a red shirt hung with three gold chains, under a black suit coat with a notched purple lapel, matching trousers and dress shoes. His alter-ego Ashtem hides behind a black, helmet-like mask with black visors, purple lines across the top and a red lightning streak over the left eye. Ashtem's black coat carries purple lining and spiked trim, worn over armoured purple-patterned gloves, a turtleneck marked with a purple diamond motif, and black armoured trousers with purple accents and knee pads.

Theodore is manipulative to his core, skilled at reading what drives people and turning it into leverage — he talks Free De La Hoya, the world's top blader, into leaving BC Sol, and later exploits Shu Kurenai's anger to push him toward becoming Red Eye. Kristina Kuroda, who owns BC Sol, is one of the few unmoved by his charm, and both she and her advisor Trad Vasquez are unsettled by how much influence his visits carry. Yet he isn't without honour: he keeps his word to help Shu reach the power he wants, no hidden strings attached. As his alter-ego Ashtem, leader of the Snake Pit Organization, he drops all restraint, believing real strength demands weeding out the weak, and toys with bladers like Valt Aoi purely to study their losses.
