Blindt DeVoy, known as Blind DeVoy (ブリント・デボイ, Burinto Deboi) in Japan, is a character in the anime/manga series, Beyblade Burst Rise. He fights with his Beyblade, Dusk Balkesh 7Wall Orbit Metal Gen. He is the last of the Risen 3.
Appearance
Blindt is an average height boy with blue eyes and long lashes, and violet hair styled into five conical ringlets. His attire is a late-Baroque style clothing, consisting of a moss-colored frock coat with pearl embroidery, a white cravat with a red brooch, a bright green justacorps with gold sleeve borders and frame, a coordinating green top hat, brown breeches, white stockings, white heeled shoes with golden buckles, and white gloves.
Personality
Blindt is introverted and very eccentric. He willfully avoided the European championship because he only battles opponents who pique his creativity. His integrity as an artist is more important to him than rank and social participation in the Beyblade world.
He gets emotionally swept up searching for inspiration in his Beybattles and has an uncanny ability to see the abstract fighting spirit of his opponents, and regards them much as an artist regards a model. He also loves to see the dark fighting spirit inside of his opponents, like Delta from the past and Arthur from Hell. Unlike other bladers who are focused on their own performance, Blindt fixates on his opponents, pushing them to reveal their “true heart.” He tells Delta “When I defeat the real you, my art will be complete.”
Biography
Background
Beyblade Burst Rise
Beyblades
- Dusk Balkesh 7Wall Orbit Metal Gen: Blindt's primary Beyblade in Beyblade Burst Rise.
Special Moves
- Dark-Flux: Similar to Hyper-Flux, the Bey turns a new color when it and its Blader are in complete synchronization. However, because the unity is corrupted, the Beyblade turns black and crimson with emits magenta/black sparks instead of golden sparkles.
- Dusk Wing: Balkesh uses the blade-shaped wings on the Dusk Layer Base to parry and counter incoming attacks.
- Dusk Circle: After taking damage, Balkesh retracts the sharp 'wings' of the Dusk Layer Base, then releases 2 smooth 'wings'. The new 'wings' change the shape of the base into a circle, forming a shield which protects Balkesh from incoming attacks.
- Dusk Crash: Balkesh takes its opponents attack and uses the momentum of climbing the Beystadium's slope to crash head-on with the opponent.
- Dusk Vertical: If Balkesh is knocked from the center of the stadium after Dusk Circle is triggered, it will land on the stadium edge. Instead of landing on the Performance Tip however, Balkesh lands on its side and uses the circular shaped Layer Base to roll without losing spin. Balkesh will then ride the slope of the stadium to build up speed and crash into its opponent.
- Dusk Gyro: After Dusk Vertical is triggered, Balkesh will spin horizontally on its Layer Base as it rolls to build up speed and crash into its opponent.
