Character history

Blackfire's expressive pronunciation of Glgrdsklechhh's name

As the ruler of Drenthax IV, Glgrdsklechhh was either still single or polygamous. He plotted with Blackfire to win himself a wife and queen consort, while Blackfire did not miss the opportunity to get revenge on her sister Starfire for having ferried her to jail: In exchange for the Jewel of Charta, which was at that time in Glgrdsklechhh's possession, Blackfire (as the Grand Ruler of Tamaran then) would grant him Starfire's hand. Knowing that Starfire would be very concerned for the welfare of her people, they staged an invasion by the Drenthax army to make this a highly political matter and force Starfire to acquiesce.

The plot was exposed when the Teen Titans, whom Starfire had invited as her wedding guests, found out about the insidious deal; Blackfire was publicly exposed and defeated by her sister. As a result of this deception and because Glgrdsklechhh was not the kind of husband she would have liked to have Starfire called off the wedding, and Glgrdsklechhh returned to his home planet.

Trivia

• Glgrdsklechhh is pronounced "Glerdle-skletch", with an added hiss.
• He is shown to be very repulsive to everyone, even to Galfore who growled at him.
• Because Glgrdsklechhh and his species are implied to not be very mobile, he is seen moving around on a hovering chair, similar to Jabba the Hutt in Star Wars.
  • Some of his other similarities to Jabba is being a literal repulsive slimeball who has no qualms against getting with girls who rather not be with him. As he was willing to force Starfire into marriage and when that failed he married Blackfire which is most likely an arranged marriage against her will as well given her repulsion to him.
• It was shown at the end of "Betrothed" that Starfire cannot pronounce his name.
• While he seems to understand English, Glgrdsklechhh does not seem to speak, other than incoherent gurgling sounds.
