Personality

He is also generally soft-spoken and polite when speaking to others. However, behind his calm demeanor lies his true nature, which he is quite rude and arrogant in beybattle. During battle (and after acquiring Hell Salamander) Suoh's personality changes drastically, going from calm and collected demeanor to a ruthless and angry.

 * Raging Crimson Hellfire: Salamander increases its spin speed (while in defense mode) to create an even more powerful flaming tornado updraft that massively boosts its attack and defense power.

Biography
Suoh was mostly a background character in the start, but later it was revealed that he actually battled Lui when he was a child. He wanted to defeat Lui and he got a chance when the Longinus Cup was announced. Suoh did the launch test and got into the tournament. He was also seen being haunted by his loss to Fubuki when he first recieved Emperor Forneus. He then made a new bey, Hell Salamander and was later controlled by it. He took Hell Salamander out for a test run and easily beat Ranjiro and Aiga. Later he goes up against his friend and member of the Beigoma Academy Beyclub, Fubuki Sumie. In this battle, Suoh wins the battle and goes up to face Aiga Akaba. In this battle, Aiga defeats Suoh, though it remains unknown whether he is still under the control of Hell Salamander anymore as he has been defeated.

Fubuki Sumie
Suoh is always seen with Fubuki and is always with him during training which suggests that they are good friends. This is further evidenced when it is revealed that they have known each other since they were kids. Suoh also complements Fubuki during his practice. They are also both members of the Beigoma Academy BeyClub as well. However, after acquiring Hell Salamander and his evil side, Suoh starts to develop a negative attitude towards Fubuki. After their battle in which Fubuki loses, Suoh states that he did not gain anything from their battle. Even after Fubuki persistently tries to get Suoh back, Suoh rudely declines. However, Fubuki still considered Suoh a friend and stated that he would always support him.

Lui Shirosagi
Suoh is revealed to know Lui from when he was young. After being defeated by Lui, he came to admire him and strive to defeat him. In the present day, the two appear to be on good terms with each other, and Lui even allows Suoh to watch and help him train for his upcoming Battle Royale with Aiga, Fubuki, and Ranjiro.

Trivia

 * Suoh's first name is Japanese for dragon, a reference to Hell Salamander's beast.
 * Like many characters in the Burst series, Suoh's surname contains a color kanji. His surname has "朱" kanji, which means "vermillion". When his surname is translated fully, it means "honourable vermillion mark" in Japanese.
 * Suoh becoming possessed by Hell Salamander is very much like how when Shu became possessed by his Bey, Spryzen Requiem in Beyblade Burst Evolution.
 * Additionally, when his bangs are flipped to the left, Suoh's hairstyle resembles that of Wakiya's.
 * Suoh gets a red mark on the side of his face and reveals his evil eye when he changes his bey’s mode, which may imply that he has a split personality and each is signified by each mode.
 * Suoh is the first Burst character to own three different Beys: A generic Roktavor R2, a Khalazar K3, and Hell Salamander (which is a left-spinning bey, unlike the other beys he had).
 * Suoh used a family heirloom known as the Dragon Fang to create Hell Salamander, with a help from his family blacksmith, Saruzo.
 * His Bey is named Hell Salamander, which is ironic because his Bey's avatar more closely resembles a dragon.
 * He is also very good at ikebana (flower arranging).
 * He is the first Burst character that its special moves is written in kanji, not English.
 * He is the third blader who uses a Salamander-based beyblade, the other two are Shinobu Hiryuin and Johnny McGregor.
