-->'''N'Doul''': I'll tell you this before I go. You should know that my name is N'Doul, and my Stand hails from Egypt; the birthplace of the Tarot. It's referred to as one of the Nine Gods of Egypt, Geb of the Great Ennead. We call it the God of the Earth.\\

* WeakButSkilled: Compared to earlier shapeshifting enemy Stand User [[BlobMonster Rubber Soul]], Oingo is this. While his Stand, Khnum, is a lot less combat-oriented than Yellow Temperance and he never tries to fight the gang directly, he's one ''hell'' of a lot better at impersonating people and their mannerisms with his disguises, meaning that the Crusaders never realise he's a fake until he accidentally treads on his own explosive orange and blows himself up.

* OutGambitted: Magnificently by Jotaro. Despite being CrazyPrepared, Jotaro is able to successfully bluff him through a magnificent poker face, using Star Platinum's SuperSpeed to grab a cigarette and drink to plant the idea that he successfully switched out his bad hand under D'Arby's nose, and his willingness to bet his mother's soul against learning the secret of [=DIO's=] Stand to make D'Arby too afraid to call the match, thus forfeiting victory because D'Arby couldn't bring himself to risk his life from betraying DIO.

It's actually subverted -- he's scared of DIO's YouHaveFailedMe policy just like any of his other assassins when that becomes the higher priority. Jotaro exploits it by forcing D'Arby to wager the secret of DIO's Stand and creating the mere ''possibility'' that he might have to betray DIO, making him so paranoid that he begins to believe that Jotaro really did swap out his hand.

Even if it were to be strangled, a bird can survive for several minutes thanks to its internal air reserves.

** His Stand allows him a 100% accurate mind reading, but an extremely straightforward one, only allowing "yes" or "no" as answers. This is perfect when he has to go through a series of limited possibilities, since he can just test each of them. So the Crusaders defeat him with some lateral thinking.

While he does kill the Speedwagon agents for interfering, he primarily focuses on the Joestar group, being disgusted when Jotaro uses Iggy as a projectile, and kills himself for the sake of the master's secrets and out of gratitude.

His Stand, Osiris, named after [[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Osiris the Egyptian god of the underworld]], is an ogre-like creature that has the ability to steal one's soul when they admit defeat in their heart. He facilitates this through gambling, stealing the victim's soul when he wins.\\\

* FatalFlaw: Wrath. Pet Shop's sheer determination to kill Iggy, even after the latter offers to leave both him and DIO's mansion alone after initially wounding him, is what ultimately leads to him being killed instead. By extension, it also catalyses [[NiceJobFixingItVillain Iggy leading the Joestar group to DIO's mansion]]; before that, he didn't care at all and even says as much when offering his truce.

* FateWorseThanDeath: His Stand makes his victims fully aware of their situation, but unable to move or do anything besides talk to or interact with D'Arby as he makes them his (literal) playthings. As shown with some of his dolls, including Sonya (who [[StockholmSyndrome begs to talk to the man who imprisoned her]], and cries TearsOfJoy when he picks her up to show to the Joestar group), [[DeadlyDoctor Doctor Elliot]] (who [[LaughingMad laughs insanely]] and [[SerialKiller rants incomprehensively about the eight patients he murdered in life]]) and Tatsuhiko (who cries constant BrokenTears and [[IWantMyMommy begs for his mother]]), they've evidently been that way for likely several years; with [[SanitySlippage all the mental damage such imprisonment would do]] made ''abundantly'' clear.

While Daniel is AffablyEvil who's genuinely polite if not somewhat condescending to his opponents, his brother Telence comes off as FauxAffablyEvil where his politeness does little to conceal the sadism within. While both are cheaters, Daniel prefers the BoringButPractical approach by relying on his cunning alone, whereas Telence mainly relies on the power of his Stand to read his opponents' moves. Daniel is also more honest on the fact that he's cheating, justifying that it's only fair if his cheating is not exposed.

* AnimeHair: Has one of the craziest hairstyles in the entire series: an enormous sideways perm with bells dangling from hair ties weaved into it.
* AxCrazy: Quite [[AnAxeToGrind literally]]. He wields a single-handed axe as his weapon, which he most often wields when he's de-aged his victims using Sethan. Most notably in ''Heritage for the Future'', he takes it out when he successfully shrinks his opponent, during which he does more damage and gains a faster forward dash.

His big hairdo looks like a bird's nest, Sethan is based on the avian-headed God of the same name and has a bird's beak, has a thin face and a high-pitched, fluty voice like a songbird, assumes a kid-dified Polnareff is hiding inside a cuckoo clock, sees CirclingBirdies when he knocks himself unconscious, and is defeated by being sent flying high through the air.
* AnimeHair: Has one of the craziest hairstyles in the entire series: an enormous sideways perm with bells dangling from hair ties weaved into it.
* AxCrazy: Quite [[AnAxeToGrind literally]]. He wields a single-handed axe as his weapon, which he most often wields when he's de-aged his victims using Sethan. Most notably in ''Heritage for the Future'', he takes it out when he successfully shrinks his opponent, during which he does more damage and gains a faster forward dash.



* InformedAbility: In its introduction, Atum was able to dodge and grab Star Platinum's arm, hinting that it has some offensivee capabilities. From that point onward, however, it mainly serves as a means for Terrence to read minds and take the loser's soul, with no attempt to defend its user once Jotaro does its Ora-Ora barrage on him.

more info: Book of the Faiyum was written around 332 BCE-359 CE ish, basically during the fall of the Ptolemy dynasty of Egypt at the hands of Rome, so even if Set's bird depiction has a historical basis, it's very likely a new invention at the time, instead of being traditional.

She appears as a supporting character in the 2021 SpinOff manga ''Manga/JoJosBizarreAdventureCrazyDiamondsDemonicHeartbreak''.



* SadlyMythtaken: Two notes:
** Firstly, the god that the Stand is based on is historically referred to as "Set" or "Seth", but never "Sethan" (which is reflected in the Japanese pronunciation of the Stand's name, セト神 ''Seto-shin''). Presumably, Araki conflated the god Set with {{Satan|icArchetype}} due to their similar names and roles in their respective canons, but this is unclear.
** Secondly, while the animal that he is based on is heavily debated among scholars, Set is almost always depicted with a mammalian head instead of a bird head[[note]]with the one exception of the Book of the Faiyum, which depicts Set with a flamingo head, although that text was written very late in Ancient Egypt's history[[/note]] as seen with the Stand Sethan and his card.



* SpellMyNameWithAnS: His Stand's name is sometimes spelled "Set", an alternative name of the Egyptian god it's named after.

* ALighterShadeOfBlack: At least, four of the members- N'Doul, Oingo, Boingo, and Daniel J. D'Arby, while amoral, are considerably less psychotic, sadistic, and cruel than their peers- especially Alessi and Terrence.
* EliteMooks: In general they come very close to winning ''especially'' compared to DIO's mercenaries, the only people outperforming them being [[TheDragon Vanilla Ice]], [[NotSoHarmlessVillain Hol Horse]] (when partnered with [[WakeUpCallBoss J. Geil]]) and DIO himself.
* KilledOffForReal: Anubis, N'Doul and Pet Shop meet their ends after their confrontations with the Joestar group.
* PraetorianGuard: Including the members of his household, they serve as the most elite of DIO's followers when the Crusaders finally set foot in Egypt.
* SadlyMythtaken: The Egypt 9 Glory Gods are based on the [[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ennead Ennead]], a group of the 9 most important gods in the pantheon that are worshipped in the Heliopolis. Despite this, only 4 of the Glory Gods are actually part of the Ennead: Atum, Geb, Osiris and Set (5 if Horus is included, which is often included as the tenth member of the Ennead).
* ThemeNaming: Their Stands are all named after deities from Myth/EgyptianMythology.
* SecretKeeper: They are all privy to the knowledge of DIO's stand, and are aware that spilling this secret ensures their death.
* UndyingLoyalty: A vast majority of the tarot-themed enemies were all just looking to get a paycheck. These guys aside from [[ForcedIntoEvil Boingo]], [[OnlyInItForTheMoney Alessi]] and [[TheGambler Daniel J. D'Arby]], are genuinely loyal to DIO.

A blind Stand user. He is named after Senegalese soul singer [[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Youssou_N%27Dour Youssou N'Dour]].

His Stand, Geb, named after [[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Geb the Egyptian god of the earth]], has the ability to control water and shoot it at high speeds, capable of severing flesh and bone.

* ALighterShadeOfBlack: While he's still a confident, remorseless killer, who even describes himself as a bad man, he doesn't display the extreme sadism, cruelty, and depravity that the other Stand users under DIO's employ possess. While he does kill the Speedwagon agents for interfering, he primarily focuses on the Joestar group, being disgusted when Jotaro uses Iggy as a projectile, and kills himself for the sake of the master's secrets and out of gratitude. Jotaro even feels that under different circumstances, he would've made an ally.
* AmbiguouslyGay: If his admiration for DIO's beauty is a hint.
* AlasPoorVillain: His dying moments were portrayed in a tragic light, so much so that Jotaro decides to honour him with a proper burial.
* BecauseYouWereNiceToMe: His motivation behind working for DIO was because DIO, while N'Doul was living a miserable, lonely life and surviving on petty crime due to his blindness and his powers forcing people away, accepted him and gave him purpose as a fellow Stand user.
* BetterToDieThanBeKilled: He takes his own life knowing DIO would probably kill him anyway, explaining that it's better to die by one's own hand than to die at the hands of someone whom they admire. It is also to prevent Joseph from reading his mind and learning about any useful information using Hermit Purple.
* BlindWeaponmaster: N'Doul is blind, but it doesn't hamper how skilled and outright dangerous he is with Geb's [[MakingASplash water-manipulating powers]] in the slightest. He has also learned to sense the presence of who and what is around him through the ground and his cane.
* CardCarryingVillain: In his DyingSpeech, he doesn't hesitate to admit that he and DIO are evil, but appreciates the latter for giving him a purpose as a Stand user in spite of that.
* CurbStompBattle: He manages to take Avdol and Kakyoin out of commission easily, with only a small, if severe, burn to show for it.
* DrivenToSuicide: After Jotaro incapacitates him with the intent to ask him about DIO, N'Doul instead opts to kill himself: using Geb to [[BoomHeadshot blast a burst of pressurised water through his own head]]. He does hang on just long enough to tell Jotaro who he is and why he is so devoted to supporting his master so much, however.
* EvenEvilHasStandards:
** Despite his attempts to violently kill the Joestar group -- after already mutilating several Speedwagon Foundation pilots -- he's genuinely appalled when he finds out that Jotaro threw Iggy, a dog, at him while trying to get close enough to attack.
---> '''N'Doul:''' ''What kind of person is he? Throwing a dog...''
** Though not word-by-word, the English dub still has him show disbelief at the prospect of Jotaro throwing Iggy.
---> '''N'Doul:''' ''I can't believe it! He actually threw the dog...''
* EyeScream: N'Doul inflicts this on Kakyoin during his battle with him and the rest of the Joestar group, slashing him across the eyes with Geb and seriously wounding him for a significant chunk of the story.
* FaceDeathWithDignity: When cornered and incapacitated by Jotaro so he can be questioned, N'Doul fatally wounds himself with a burst of water through his own head via Geb, and calmly tells Jotaro about who he is and why he is so dedicated to protecting DIO, all without any fear or pain whatsoever. Both the circumstances surrounding him and how well he takes his demise [[AlasPoorVillain moves the normally-indifferent Jotaro]] to the point where he gives N'Doul a proper burial after he dies.
-->'''N'Doul''': I'll tell you this before I go. You should know that my name is N'Doul, and my Stand hails from Egypt; the birthplace of the Tarot. It's referred to as one of the Nine Gods of Egypt, Geb of the Great Ennead. We call it the God of the Earth.\\
'''Jotaro''': Nine Egyptian Gods? What does that mean?!\\
'''N'Doul''': (''chuckles mirthlessly'') Sorry, but I'll only tell you about ''my'' Stand. [[WorthyOpponent It's only fair, seeing as you're the one who ended up stopping me]]. But information on my compatriots ''goes with me to my grave''.
* FemmeFatalons: Geb generally takes the form of a large hand reaching up from the ground -- made up of highly-pressurised water -- with very long and sharp fingernails. They not only tear through several Speedwagon Foundation members and their helicopter, but also end up [[EyeScream deeply slashing Kakyoin down his face and through the eyes]], incapacitating him for a long time in-story until DIO's mansion.
* FoldSpindleMutilation: Geb's debut to the Stardust Crusaders is ''violently ripping the surviving Speedwagon helicopter pilot's head off after suddenly appearing from the water canteen before forcing said head through the canteen's nozzle, brutally crushing it.''
* {{Foreshadowing}}: When Jotaro finally catches up to him, N'Doul briefly tells Jotaro about his jewelled cane, in particular elaborating on how he uses it to navigate and that he needs it to return home. After he finishes, N'Doul throws it far away from himself: hinting that [[FaceDeathWithDignity he's very aware he's not getting out alive either way]].
* FreudianExcuse: As both a blind man and a Stand user, he struggled to live as a normal person, reluctantly relied on petty crime to survive, and felt like he was shunned and ostracised by society. His loyalty to DIO was because he was the only one who accepted him for who he was.
* GlassCannon:
** Geb is extremely dangerous and with the desert it makes it hard to track and watch. However, N'Doul himself is defeated with a single hit from Star Platinum once Jotaro finds a way to get close.
** It's taken to a further extreme in ''Heritage for the Future'', where N'Doul is a bonus level boss that can deal some nasty damage if one makes the mistake of allowing him to do so, but if one reaches to the place he sits, he will go down to the lightest of jabs as long as it hits low.
* GracefulLoser: Takes his loss to Jotaro very well, and accepts his defeat. He even offers to spill some information to Jotaro about his Stand and the future enemies they'll face [[WorthyOpponent as a reward for beating him]]. Not before he kills himself using his own Stand to not tell them everything, however.
* HandicappedBadass: He's blind, but he is one of the most dangerous Stand users the group encounters, and easily the deadliest encountered up to that point. He knocks out Kakyoin and Avdol, and has the others at his mercy until Jotaro forced Iggy to get involved. Even ''then'', Jotaro got very lucky.
* IronicName: His Stand is named after the Egyptian ''Earth'' god, yet its ability allows N'Doul to [[MakingASplash control water]]. As seen under ShownTheirWork though, it does make sense from a practical standpoint.
* KickTheDog: Subverted. He contemplates killing Iggy first for the pure reason that the dog was able to tell when Geb was going to attack, but after hearing that Iggy was more interested in taking a nap than helping the fight, N'Doul decides that he'll leave him be.
* LogicalWeakness: Geb is a stand that acts though manipulating water, its completely immune to taking physical damage. However, a PlayingWithFire stand like Magician's Red is one of its biggest threats. However, Geb manages to overcome its weakness by outspeeding the other stand.
* LongRangeFighter: Enforced. N'Doul is a blind man who cannot see unless he listens to his cane for the vibrations around him, any enemy getting close to him puts him at an immediate disadvantage.
* MakingASplash: Geb can manipulate water, pressurizing it to the point where it becomes a dangerous weapon and controlling it from a distance like an extension of himself.
* MoreThanMindControl: He sees DIO as a [[DarkMessiah savior for people like himself]].
* MutualKill: Judging by how he drops his cane to the side after just expositing about how he would need it to find his way back to DIO before unleashing Geb at the same time Jotaro attacks with Star Platinum, it's heavily implied N'Doul was ready to invoke this to win the fight. Unfortunately for him, Star Platinum is faster and Geb only manages to knock Jotaro's hat off -- granted, an impressive feat in and of itself considering how much that hat sticks to Jotaro -- and N'Doul has to settle for FaceDeathWithDignity.
* NighInvulnerability: Part of what makes Geb so dangerous is because since it's just manipulated water, it's immune to most physical attacks like Silver Chariot's rapier or Star Platinum's fists. Luckily, Avdol's Magician Red is just the type of Stand capable of harming it by evaporating the water, but it says something that Jotaro has to resort to attacking N'Doul directly and ignoring Geb to win.
* SimpleStaff: His jewelled cane. As a blind man, he uses to help sense the locations of objects, places and people around him through movements in the earth, and being separated from it briefly (by [[FastballSpecial throwing Iggy at him]]) gives Jotaro the time he needs to get up close to and defeat him.
* ShownTheirWork: A water-based Stand like Geb attacking the Joestar group out in the desert initially seems odd, but makes a lot of sense when you consider that industrial [[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Water_jet_cutter water jet cutters]] work through highly-pressurised streams of water -- much like Geb -- mixed with abrasives such as sand, letting them easily cut through materials such as steel and especially flesh and bone.
* SingleSubstanceManipulation: His Stand, Geb can manipulate [[MakingASplash water]]. Most of the time, Geb takes the form of a large clawed hand made of water, which is strong enough to rip someone's head off and pull it into a canteen.
* SpellMyNameWithAnS: It's either N'Dou''l'' or N'Dou''r'', though the former is more common.
* SupernaturalSuffocation: In the OVA, Geb mixes itself with water from a canteen, then forms a bubble around Polnareff's head, almost drowning him despite Star Platinum's attempts to punch the water away. Fortunately, Avdol uses Magician's Red to evaporate most of the water before Polnareff suffocates.
* UndyingLoyalty: To DIO, so much so that he would rather kill himself than betray him.
* VillainousVirtues: Gratitude and loyalty. As thanks to DIO for giving him purpose and accepting him for the man he is, N'Doul is completely loyal to him, to the point of taking his own life to stop the heroes from questioning him for information that could be used to defeat him.
* WakeUpCallBoss: As the first of the Nine Egypt Glory Gods the gang faces, N'Doul being able to take out two of them -- seriously wounding one for the rest of the story -- quickly shows how much more dangerous future enemies will be in comparison to the ones they had faced before.
* WeaponTombstone: N'Doul fatally wounds himself using his Stand to prevent himself from spilling any information, and talks to Jotaro without an ounce of fear of his oncoming death just before he dies. Afterward, Jotaro respectfully buries N'Doul's body in the desert and marks the spot using his own jewelled cane.
* WolverineClaws: When Geb manifests as a hand with weaponized FemmeFatalons made of very high-pressure water, it can do quite a bit of damage.
* WorthyOpponent: Jotaro is impressed that N'Doul is able to knock his hat off of his head; which he mentions has stayed put ''even while underwater''. He's probably the only of DIO's assassins that he respects, as he buries and eulogizes N'Doul after he kills himself, [[WeaponTombstone marking the spot with his own jewelled cane]].
** N'Doul himself sees Jotaro as one, as he reveals information about his Stand, and the future enemies the group will encounter in Egypt, as a reward for beating him. The OVA takes this a step further with N’Doul saying that Jotaro is the one man whose face he wishes he could see, and that he prays for their luck.

https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/khnum_5.png[[/labelnote]]]]
->''[[IAmSong I am Oingo, I can transform!]] My height, my weight, and even my smell, just as I imagine! No one will find out, and no one will catch on! The God of Creation, Khnum!''

The elder of two brothers that attempts to attack the Joestars. He and Boingo are named after Music/OingoBoingo (or, in the Viz translation, after Music/ThePolice album ''Zenyattà Mondatta'').

His Stand, Khnum, named after [[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Khnum the Egyptian god that sculpted humans from clay]], allows him to disguise himself as anyone in the world, altering his face, size, and even smell to fool his opponents.
-----
* AdultFear: His younger brother Boingo is kidnapped by Hol Horse while the brothers are in the hospital. While we don't see Oingo's reaction, he was most likely very worried and angry, considering how much he cares about his brother.
* ALighterShadeOfBlack: Both he and Oingo, while hilariously inept, are still confident killers who attempt to assassinate the Joestars and are mean to random people for no reason at times. However, they're not nearly as insane, sadistic, or morally repugnant as the majority of the Tarot Stand users or even some of their fellow Glory Gods. They [[EvenEvilHasLovedOnes truly care for other]] and only directly try to kill the Joestars- their intended targets.
* ButtMonkey: He alongside his brother and Hol Horse are the biggest ones out of the entire rogues gallery of this part. Practically nothing goes right for him.
* DressingAsTheEnemy: Not by choice though, he disguised as Jotaro to avoid being attacked by Joseph and Polnareff. This leads to his defeat, as he becomes the "Jotaro" that was described in Thoth's prophecy... and then accordingly ends up treading on one of his own explosives, retiring him.
* DubNameChange: To Zenyatta.
* EvenEvilHasLovedOnes: Immensely protective of Boingo and tears up at the thought of his brother growing more confident.
* ExplosiveStupidity: How Oingo is defeated. While trying to hide an explosive orange in the Joestar group's car, he's forced to disguise himself as Jotaro to avoid being caught by Kakyoin, Joseph and Polnareff when they come across him in the act. In an attempt to get out of the blast radius of his own trap, he tries throwing it out of the car; only for Iggy to bring it back, and then after throwing it out ''again'' and attempting to escape, [[HoistByHisOwnPetard he steps on and accidentally detonates it]].
* FamilyThemeNaming: Oingo and his brother Boingo are named after Music/OingoBoingo.
* FromBadToWorse: After Oingo got himself blown up with his own exploding orange, [[LaserGuidedKarma he and Boingo are set upon by a group of friends of the man Oingo had robbed earlier for money]], and the two end up receiving a NoHoldsBarredBeatdown from them.
* GagLips: Has comically-huge lips compared to everyone else in his default form.
* GenreSavvy: He's well aware that while Thoth's prophecies are always accurate, they aren't always as cut and dry as they appear. When he disguises himself as Jotaro to avoid detection, he knows that he's putting himself at risk from his own trap.
* TheGhost: Not Oingo himself, but Khnum. While other Stands are visible (albeit often devoid of their own character), the closest we get is the logo on his shirt up there.
* {{Humanshifting}}: His Stand lets him reshape his body, but the end result is still humanoid. He can't alter or generate clothes, but he ''can'' resculpt his hair to resemble a hat. This essentially makes Khnum a weaker version of Yellow Temperance: although to his credit, Oingo ''is'' much better at impersonating people than Rubber Soul ever was.
* IneffectualSympatheticVillain: Doesn't really pose a threat to the heroes, and he's kind to and very protective of his meek younger brother.
* KnightTemplarBigBrother: Is very overprotective over his brother Boingo.
* LaserGuidedKarma: Assaults a random guy on the street for some money. He ends up getting beaten up when the guy comes back with some friends in revenge.
* MadeOfIron: Downplayed. Although badly injured and hospitalised as a result of it, Oingo survives being caught point-blank in the explosion of a hand grenade (hidden inside an orange) that he steps on. And that's not even getting to the NoHoldsBarredBeatdown he received from the friends of a man he'd robbed earlier.
* MasterOfDisguise: Khnum's entire schtick, which lets Oingo shapeshift and alter his face, size and even scent to produce a near-perfect disguise of any other person he chooses. He's also quite good at impersonating how they act unlike [[SmugSnake Rubber Soul]], making it harder to catch on to him.
* MeaningfulName: The Egyptian god Khnum was said to have sculpted humans from clay, much like how Oingo sculpts his own face to disguise himself.
* NoHoldsBarredBeatdown: How he's ultimately defeated. Boingo and Oingo both receive one from a man whom they robbed earlier on, when he comes back with his friends after [[FromBadToWorse Oingo had already been blown up]] by stepping on (and thus detonating) his own exploding orange.
* PromotionToParent: Implied by the fact that his and Boingo's parents are never seen.
* ProphecyTwist: While he immediately realizes that one is coming beforehand, and does everything he can to get out of it, the twist still blindsides him.
* SelfDisposingVillain: Parodied, Joseph and Polnareff never even knew they were in danger, Oingo’s defeat was entirely self sabotaged.
* ShapeshiftingExcludesClothing: Pretty much the one flaw in his shapeshifting, though he actually does transform his hair enough to resemble Jotaro's hat.
* SigilSpam: Look closely at his t-shirt, and you can see it's monogrammed with his own Stand's card (in the manga, the shirt has his name instead).
* SpecialEditionTitle: Ending in this case, Boingo and he get their own little ending song in the anime.
* StupidEvil: His decision to attack and rob a rich man -- on the basis that he needed the money and [[EvilIsPetty because he didn't like his face]] -- quickly comes back to bite him in the ass when said man pays a bunch of his friends to beat Oingo and his brother to a pulp. And keep in mind, this occurred [[FromBadToWorse just after Oingo had been blown up by his own exploding orange]].
* TheUnfought: Subverted, as he was technically battling Joseph and Polnareff, but the heroes never realize they were attacked by him nor were they even aware of his existence.
* ThrowDownTheBomblet: How he attempts to kill the Joestar group. Oingo rigs up an orange with a bomb inside of it, designed to detonate when peeled; however, through a chain of things going wrong one after another, he ends up accidentally treading on said explosive orange while trying to escape disguised as Jotaro, being blown up and retired himself.
* VagueAge: Oingo looks like he could be anywhere from his late teens to his early 20s. At the least, he's old enough to drive a car and to take care of his little brother on his own.
* WeakButSkilled: Compared to earlier shapeshifting enemy Stand User [[BlobMonster Rubber Soul]], Oingo is this. While his Stand, Khnum, is a lot less combat-oriented than Yellow Temperance and he never tries to fight the gang directly, he's one ''hell'' of a lot better at impersonating people and their mannerisms with his disguises, meaning that the Crusaders never realise he's a fake until he accidentally treads on his own explosive orange and blows himself up.
* YouHaveGotToBeKiddingMe: Yells this in his Jotaro form as he realises he's about to be blown up:
-->'''Jotaro!Oingo''': (''[[OhCrap slowly realises he's stepped on his own orange]]'') ...'''ARE YOU ''KIDDING MEEEEEEEE?!''''' (''the orange explodes spectacularly, and Oingo is caught in the blast'')

!!Boingo (Stand: Thoth)
!!!'''Voiced by:''' Creator/MotokoKumai (TV anime), Takahiro Fujimoto (''All-Star Battle''), Sanae Takagi (''Heritage for the Future'' video game) (Japanese), Creator/JessicaGeeGeorge (TV anime) (English)

[[quoteright:312:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/8eef50a95f89f0be1fc2dd7b1b1597f9.PNG]]
->''[[IAmSong I am Boingo, I prophesize with manga!]] It comes true without fail, there's never any mistake! I'm very shy, so I'm always alone, though. The God of Knowledge, Thoth!''

The younger of two brothers that attempt to attack the Joestars, he later partners up with Hol Horse. He and Oingo are named after Music/OingoBoingo (or, in the Viz translation, after Music/ThePolice album ''Zenyattà Mondatta'').

His Stand, Thoth, named after [[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thoth the Egyptian god of knowledge and sciences]], manifests itself as a comic book that can predict the future with 100% accuracy. Whether or not he can follow through with said predictions is another thing.
-----
* ALighterShadeOfBlack: While just as inept as his brother, he's still trying to kill the Joestars with some glee and tolerates Oingo being rude to random people. However, he's not nearly as sadistic, cruel, or psychotic as the majority of the Tarot Stand users or his fellow Glory Gods. He [[EvenEvilHasLovedOnes cares deeply for his brother]] and is willing to work alongside Hol Horse, a similar jerk that's not nearly as bad as his compatriots.
* AmbiguousSyntax: His Stand's predictions are 100% accurate. How they're supposed to come about is another thing, since [[CrypticConversation they only appear in picture form]] and tend to oversimplify how things are supposed to progress.
* AdaptationalAttractiveness: Boingo is much more conventionally cute in the anime than the manga.
* AnimeHair: He sports an afro that's bigger than the rest of his head.
* ArtShift: His Stand is a comic book, and [[DerangedAnimation the illustrations are very, very surreal]]. Sorta like a Klasky-Csupo comic.
* AssistCharacter: Is one for Hol Horse in his alternate "Hol Horse & Boingo" incarnation from ''VideoGame/JoJosBizarreAdventureHeritageForTheFuture''. Boingo mostly lends a hand during their Supers; "Absolute Premonition" has him using Thoth to predict a truck coming to hit the opponent while Hol himself holds them in front of it by their nose, and "Pipe Maze" involves him predicting the path of the bullets Hol fires into a network of pipes with Emperor to shoot the opponent. Other than that, Boingo mostly hangs out in the background, but [[JokeCharacter gets sent out to fight unwillingly]] while [[DirtyCoward Hol Horse himself hides under his box]] when they're transformed by Alessi.
* TheBabyOfTheBunch: The youngest of the 9 Glory Gods, and one of the youngest human characters to have a Stand, aside from [[BrainyBaby Mannish Boy]] and later [[{{Invisibility}} Shizuka Joestar]].
* BigStupidDoodooHead: According to him, Hol Horse is "a big meanie and a total jerk!". In the English dub, he instead says that [[DepartmentOfRedundancyDepartment "he's mean and I don't like him!"]].
* BlessedWithSuck: His Stand's ability is to show the future in the short term, however the prediction is often vague and doesn't show either the long term consequences of a prophecy coming true, or even what will happen ''minutes or seconds after'' the completion of said prophecy. What's worse is that Thoth seemingly leads the people reading it into trouble, as Oingo, Boingo and Hol Horse were all severely injured following its predictions going wrong some way or another. It's implied that this doesn't always have to be the case, as Oingo knowingly displayed a severe lapse in judgment by transforming into the guy prophecied to be blown up, but in addition to the stand's own flaws, Boingo and his partners simply lack the cunning needed to manipulate Thoth's prophecies into desirable outcomes.
* BoundAndGagged: Poor Boingo gets tied up and stuffed in a suitcase by Hol Horse so the latter can use Thoth to help him to kill Jotaro.
* TheCameo: In ''Stone Ocean,'' Jolyne is seen reading a comic book that looks like Thoth, implying that Boingo became an illustrator when he grew up.
* CrossdressingVoices: In the anime, Boingo is voiced by a woman due to his young age.
* DerangedAnimation: Boingo's two special ending sequences are depicted in the style of his comic book, right down to the surreal landscapes and humorously ugly and stylised character designs.
* DiabolusExMachina: Suffers one right at the end of his character arc. After being defeated twice, Boingo learns from the experience, and resolves to pull a HeelFaceTurn, get over his cowardice, and from then on use his power to help people. It seems things are finally looking up for him... only to kick away his old box and accidentally hit [[HeroWithAnFInGood Iggy]] in the head with it, who then proceeds to attack him. As a result, he gets sent to the hospital along with Oingo and Hol Horse, and [[DownerEnding ends up meeker]] ''[[DownerEnding than ever]]''.
* DubNameChange: To Mondatta. However, his comic book still says "Oingo Boingo" on the cover, and their [[SpecialEditionTitle ending theme]] isn't dubbed and still has them say "Oingo Boingo Brothers".
* EndearinglyDorky: Even though he's [[ForcedIntoEvil technically a villain]], Boingo still manages to come off as quite the likeable dork; especially through his loyalty to his brother and when he's reading his comic aloud, complete with SayingSoundEffectsOutLoud and child-like impressions of the various people in them.
-->'''Boingo''': Yahoo, we're rich!
* ExactWords: Well, a picture form of it. Thoth's predictions are always accurate in some sense; if the book's pages show Jotaro getting shot in the head, then Jotaro will get shot in the head... but that picture actually meant someone who ''looks like'' Jotaro will end up getting shot, or even that ''the comic book's picture of Jotaro'' gets shot: directly leading to Hol Horse's defeat.
* EvenEvilHasLovedOnes: Fiercely loyal to his brother, which leads to his team-up with Hol Horse in hopes of getting revenge for the injuries Oingo sustained in their last encounter with the heroes.
* FamilyThemeNaming: Boingo and his brother Oingo are named after Music/OingoBoingo.
* ForcedIntoEvil: It's all but outright said that Boingo doesn't go willingly along with being used as a patsy by Oingo or Hol Horse, and his respective motivations for doing so -- to help Oingo and to avenge Oingo's injuries, respectively -- can be traced back to his UndyingLoyalty for his brother.
* GigglingVillain: Has a tendency to break into wild fits of laughter at the prospect of fate turning in his favor.
* GoneHorriblyRight: While his Stand may have correctly predicted one of the heroes' fate ([[spoiler:Jotaro's method of death]] in [[Manga/JoJosBizarreAdventureStoneOcean Part 6]], long after the prediction was made), it didn't save Oingo from suffering the same fate while disguised as that person: and likewise with Hol Horse accidentally shooting himself ''through'' the comic's picture of Jotaro due to a slightly sped-up watch.
* HeartIsAnAwesomePower: Boingo tries to invoke this trope, remarking that even though his Stand can't see far into the future, its high accuracy makes up for any of its shortcomings. It's subverted due to the fact that Thoth's predictions backfire so much that he and his partners would be better off ignoring it.
* HeelFaceDoorSlam: After both of his allies are defeated, Boingo resolves to change his ways. (Then Iggy mauls him after Boingo accidentally kicks his old box onto his head: leaving him even more insecure than before, and the last we hear of him is him bitterly concluding that "if it really were ''that'' easy for people to change, the world would be a far better place".) However, an artwork shown in Part 6 shows that Boingo became an illustrator later on, so at least it ''did'' work out for him somewhat in the long run.
* HeelFaceTurn: On the other hand, Boingo ''does'' succeed at this in his ''Heritage For The Future'' ending with Hol Horse; turning over a new leaf and becoming more positive and assertive after proving he could rid himself of his past regrets, making use of his Stand's power to help people.
* IneffectualSympatheticVillain: Boingo's one of the weakest Stand Users in DIO's group, and he's pretty much TheChewToy for the other, similarly-ineffective and humorous minions to take advantage of.
* {{Irony}}: Thoth actually ''did'' predict how in [[Manga/StoneOcean Part 6]], [[spoiler:Jotaro would die from getting his face split in two]].
* ItsAllJunk: After he resolves to pull a HeelFaceTurn after his second defeat, Boingo kicks away the old wooden box he used to hide under, seeing it as a symbol of his cowardice and wanting to move on from it. Unfortunately though, [[{{Jerkass}} Iggy]] happens to be nearby and accidentally gets hit by it when it comes down... and [[DiabolusExMachina needless to say, it doesn't end well for Boingo]].
* NeverMyFault: Every time his Stand's predictions backfire, he will focus only on the fact that the [[ComicallyMissingThePoint predictions were technically correct]] and that any repercussions was due to either it simply being fate or because his partners tried to change the outcome, even though both Oingo and Hol Horse followed Thoth's instruction to the letter in every case. He explains it to Hol Horse as his brother lacking faith in the book, explaining that Oingo should have just trusted the book's ending to happen even after the heroes accidentally found him, rather than transform into Jotaro to protect himself. Likewise, Hol Horse too suffers because he stopped trusting the book just because his bullets missed Jotaro the first time around: causing Hol Horse to be distracted by looking at the book, asking "What's supposed to happen now?" at the worst possible moment.
* NonActionGuy: Being a child with a non-combat-oriented Stand, Boingo makes his predictions and stays on the sidelines while his big brother Oingo handles the heavy lifting. He later fills the same role alongside Hol Horse.
* PintSizedKid: Small enough for Hol Horse to stuff in a suitcase.
* ProphecyTwist: His Stand predicts the future without fail, and while each prediction describes a clear course of action to Boingo and his allies, it turns out there's enough wiggle room that the result isn't always what they expect.
* PropheticFallacy: Since Thoth only shows the immediate future, sometimes the twist comes from leaving out the consequences of what happens next, which is especially true if the prediction appears abundantly straightforward. One example of this is Thoth predicting that the Joestar party will drink poisoned tea; they actually do it, but then Iggy steals some random stranger's food, prompting all of them to SpitTake and foil the Oingo Boingo brothers' plans.
* PunchClockVillain: Pretty much ForcedIntoEvil by his brother Oingo, and later Hol Horse in an attempt to avenge the former.
* ShrinkingViolet: He claims to be one in the [[SpecialEditionTitle special ending themes]] that involve him, though after Oingo is defeated he decides to become more assertive and take revenge.
-->'''Boingo''': I am Boingo, my comic prophesizes! I'm horribly shy, but I'm going to be brave. We'll shoot down big bro's enemies! My predictions are 100% accurate, [[VerbalTic yes!]]
* SignatureLaugh: Ukekekekeke!
* SpecialEditionTitle: Ending in this case, Oingo and him have their own ending song in the anime. He gets another with Hol Horse as well.
* SpellMyNameWithAnS: Boingo's Stand "Thoth" has for whatever reason been spelled as "Tohth" in nearly all official Japanese materials. The reason for this is never clear as "Tohth" is not an alternate spelling of the name of the Egyptian deity (which is the Greek name for him anyway) nor is there any copyright or trademark restriction to using a name that is thousands of years old.
* ThrowTheDogABone: Along with Hol Horse, Boingo gets a lasting win in his appearance as an AssistCharacter in ''Heritage For The Future''. After defeating the Joestar group to get revenge for his brother's hospitalization at their hands, the two part on good terms; with Boingo returning to Oingo, pulling a full HeelFaceTurn after becoming more confident in himself, and using the power of his Stand to help people.
-->'''Boingo''': We did it! That was a suitable revenge for my brother!
* UnknownRival: Despite vowing to get revenge on the gang, they don't even know that Boingo exists.
* VerbalTic: "Yes!", said after every sentence that he utters that involves a prophecy in motion.
* VillainousFriendship: Establishes one with Hol Horse in ''Heritage For The Future'', which doubles as an IntergenerationalFriendship.
* VomitIndiscretionShot: After being taken out of a suitcase by Hol Horse after being smuggled onto a plane by him, Boingo throws up on him in the back of their taxi cab.
* WeirdnessMagnet: [[FightingSpirit Thoth]] aside, he tends to attract unwanted attention from people who either want to use him (Hol Horse) or are in the wrong place at the wrong time (Iggy).
* YouAreBetterThanYouThinkYouAre: Implied. Even though Boingo thinks of himself as a coward, the fact that he was able to survive manifesting a Stand shows he has a stronger fighting spirit than he thinks.
* YouCantFightFate: Thoth's predictions are 100% accurate! Realizing how they'll come about or what happens next, however -- that's the rub.

[[caption-width-right:312:[[labelnote:Anubis (Bound Form)]]\\
https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/anubis_bound_form.png[[/labelnote]]]]

Anubis, named after [[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anubis the Egyptian god of burial and embalming]], is a malevolent Stand inhabiting an Ancient Egyptian sword that possesses whoever holds it. His users include Caravan Serai (his blacksmith), Chaka (a farmhand), Khan (a barber), Jean-Pierre Polnareff and an unnamed child). His previous wielders, Caravan Serai, Chaka, and Khan were named after Music/{{Santana}} album ''Caravanserai'' and [[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chaka_Khan Chaka Khan]], respectively.
-----
* AbsurdCuttingPower: Chaka uses Anubis to cleanly slice through a stone pillar. In ''Heritage For The Future'', Anubis is sharp enough to divide the background scenery in two, as both Chaka and Black Polnareff demonstrate.
* AdaptationalBadass: Chaka becomes this in ''Heritage for the Future''. In the manga, Chaka is the weakest of the three Anubis wielders, and despite initially giving Polnareff trouble with his speed, he's beaten relatively quickly after. In ''Heritage for the Future'', Chaka is instead the opposite by being the strongest of the three, with his high mobility, strong and versatile combo/counterattacking game, and range of powerful supers.
* AdaptationalWimp: On the other hand, Khan becomes this in the aforementioned game. While in the manga, he proved a decently formidable opponent, he's by far and away the weakest of the three Anubis wielders... and [[JokeCharacter one of the worst characters in the whole game]]. With his simplified versions of Chaka and Black Polnareff's moves, he's easy enough to learn for someone picking up the game for the first time to likely figure out everything and get to fighting in about ten minutes; but [[SkillGateCharacter once the player actually knows what they're doing]], they'll find Khan's skill ceiling is practically hugging the dirt.
* AndTheAdventureContinues: Chaka's ending in ''Heritage For The Future'' is a darker take on this type of ending than usual. After killing the entire Joestar group, Anubis whispers to him and tells him that his power is unrivalled, and all that's left to do to establish his dominance is to kill DIO as well. After doing so, he travels the world, searching for challengers who can give him a strong fight; but no one knows if he was ever released from Anubis' DemonicPossession or not.
* AintTooProudToBeg: Once Anubis' broken blade -- which holds his consciousness -- falls into the River Nile, he tries to beg the surrounding wildlife to help him; but to no avail. Earlier, when Jotaro tricks him into staying still long enough for Star Platinum to destroy his Sword directly, Anubis is completely terrified and begs him to stop breaking him. [[ForegoneConclusion Needless to say, he doesn't get it]].
* AllThereInTheManual: The names Caravan Serai and Khan come from supplementary materials; their names aren't revealed in the manga proper.
* AndIMustScream: Ends up at the bottom of the Nile River, unable to do anything until it rusts away.
* AwesomenessByAnalysis: Anubis claims to never lose to the same opponent twice, since it analyzes its opponents' strengths and weaknesses from the first fight and memorizes their techniques.
* BloodKnight: Fittingly for [[EvilWeapon a sword possessed by an evil Stand]], he really loves fighting.
* CoolSword: Anubis is bound to an ''Egyptian'' ''[[KatanasAreJustBetter katana]]''. Its wielders repeatedly state that it's a very beautiful blade, too. The coolness is essentially weaponized by Anubis, seeing as most can't resist picking the sword up and admiring it, which makes them easy pickings for him to possess.
* DeathByIrony: Anubis is named for the Egyptian god of embalming. He dies by rusting away.
* DeliberateInjuryGambit: How Jotaro ultimately defeats Anubis when it's possessed Polnareff. Polnareff stabs the partially-broken Anubis sword into Jotaro's stomach, leading Kujo to warn the Stand that [[ExactWords "there's going to be a murder"]]. Anubis laughs off the threat -- thinking it's referring to ''him'' killing Jotaro -- and prepares to impale him all the way through... only for Jotaro to reveal that it was a ploy to get the sword to stay still long enough for Star Platinum to smash it to bits and release Polnareff from its possession.
* DemonicPossession: Anyone who grasps the hilt of Anubis' sword unprotected is subject to this by the Stand; turning them into battle-hungry psychopaths who not only possess great speed, power and skill with the blade, but can copy the techniques of any opponent the sword has been wielded against before.
* DualWielding: Does this when possessing Polnareff, using Silver Chariot's rapier as well.
* EvilSoundsDeep: Not Anubis itself, but Khan the barber: he has a deep, gruff voice.
* EvilWeapon: Can possess the wielder if the user draws the sword from its sheath.
* FakingTheDead: It looks like Jotaro successfully destroys Anubis and freeing Polnareff from his control, but Anubis' consciousness is stored in ''every'' part of the sword, and the remaining half of the blade takes over a child and attempts to kill the two weakened men, only to fail and consign itself to an AndIMustScream fate.
* FightYourFriend: Anubis forces Jotaro to fight Polnareff and Silver Chariot when he takes advantage of the Frenchman picking him up to possess him.
* FourIsDeath: "[[BadassBoast I never, never ever, never ever, never ever, neeeeeever ever lose twice!!]]"
* InelegantBlubbering: Through a convoluted chain of events, Anubis is ultimately defeated by ending up at the bottom of the River Nile. When he realises this, [[AintTooProudToBeg and is unable to get the local wildlife to help him out]], he breaks down crying; sobbing about how lonely he is [[AndIMustScream as he's in the process of dying by slowly rusting away]].
-->'''Anubis''': I'M SO ''ALOOOOOOOOOOOONE!'' (''sobs'')
* {{Intangibility}}: The blade can pass through solid objects, cutting only what it wants to.
* InstantExpert: Part of Anubis's mind control includes talking to its users and claiming they're now master swordsmen. But it's averted as Polnareff, an expert swordsman in his own right, notices that its wielders are actually complete amateurs. However, it does eventually get played straight in that Anubis memorizes the moves of those it fights against, making it particularly dangerous when it's fighting a foe and learning how they fight so it can manage to kill them. Which makes Anubis all the more dangerous when he takes control of Polnareff, with all of Silver Chariot's speed and skills available to it.
* ItOnlyWorksOnce: Anubis's power as a Stand is not only being able to control its wielders and [[{{Intangibility}} become intangible at will]], it's also that it's a fast learner against foes it faces, making their tactics and moves increasingly ineffectual while striking their weak points without mercy. A good example is its fights against Polnareff, where even though Anubis-possessing-Chaka stood for a good amount of time was defeated by Silver Chariot firing its sword, Anubis-possessing-Khan later defeats Polnareff much more easily and would've succeeded in killing him if Jotaro didn't step in.
* LetsFightLikeGentlemen: Seems to do this against Polnareff, but this is subverted when he ambushes Polnareff and attempts to throw himself at Jotaro's back.
* LightningBruiser: According to his already fast opponents, he's actually getting stronger and faster each time he fights. Though it's possible that he just ''seems'' stronger and faster due to reacting faster to moves that he's seen before.
* OnlyTheChosenMayWield: A dark version in that Anubis can choose at will who it will let use it. If it doesn't want you as its wielder, it'll refuse to be drawn from its sheathe.
* SelfMadeOrphan:
** The first thing Chaka does upon being possessed by Anubis is to violently kill his [[AbusiveParents abusive father]], along with [[KickTheSonOfABitch several other farmhands who were bullying him]] and greedily trying to take the sword for themselves after getting him to unsheathe it.
** Averted by Anubis itself. It was actually loyal to its original owner Caravan before the blacksmith's death and didn't have a role in his end.
* TheStarscream: The only Stand in Part 3 not bound to a single user, effectively betraying whoever picks it up -- since Anubis does not actually give a damn about its wielder surviving at all -- in order to fulfill its mission from DIO. Over the course of its arc, it possesses at least four different people.
* StrengthEqualsWorthiness: This is the primary reason why he works for DIO, as he admires the vampire's immense strength and power, as well as out of thanks for freeing him.
* TalkingWeapon: One of the few Stands that can talk independently, as a result of being a separate being from whoever uses it.
* UndyingLoyalty: Subverted; he's intensely grateful to DIO for freeing him, but is also working out of sheer bloodlust and the opportunity to fight (and kill) as many strong opponents as possible.
* UnskilledButStrong: Chaka and Khan are pretty much entirely carried by Anubis' cutting power, speed increase, and reflex boost. Polnareff notes that the former has almost no idea how to use a sword while Chaka's running so fast it's impossible to track him, while the latter seems like a complete joke at first but establishes himself to be decently formidable still.
* VillainousBreakdown: Anubis has two major ones. As mentioned above, there's his final defeat when his blade falls into the River Nile and is left to rust away forever at the bottom; but earlier, he also has one when Jotaro tricks him into staying still long enough -- [[DeliberateInjuryGambit via a stab wound to the gut]] -- for Star Platinum to smash the sword apart, causing the evil Stand to have a ''massive'' FreakOut as he disintegrates.
-->'''Anubis''': '''[[BigWhat WHAT THE DEVIL?!]] YOU'RE ''BREAKING ME!'' I HAVE TO PULL FREE! NO! ''STOP!'''''\\
'''Jotaro''': Maybe I'm wrong... but weren't you saying something about slicing me open? (''Star Platinum crushes Anubis' hilt to dust, causing the terrified Anubis to break apart with a loud scream'')
* WeaponTwirling: Anubis does this quite frequently when he's being [[DualWielding dual-wielded]] by the [[DemonicPossession possessed Silver Chariot and Polnareff]] in his last fight with Jotaro; frequently having his wielder twirl his sword form and his own rapier around in each hand like a drummer's sticks.
* WreckedWeapon: First Anubis' blade gets snapped in half, and then Jotaro smashes the half attached to the sword hilt along with said hilt to pieces. The remaining half still holding Anubis' consciousness attempts to get revenge, but ends up failing.

!!Mariah (Stand: Bastet)
!!!'''Voiced by:''' Creator/AyahiTakagaki (TV anime and ''Eyes of Heaven''), Creator/MikiNagasawa (''Heritage for the Future'' video game) (Japanese), Creator/LaurenLanda (TV anime) (English)

[[quoteright:312:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/maria_991.png]]
[[caption-width-right:312:[[labelnote:Bastet]]\\
https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/bastet_animeav.png[[/labelnote]]]]

A dark-skinned woman who attacks Joseph and Avdol with her magnetic Stand. She is named after Music/MariahCarey.

Her stand, Bastet, named after [[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bastet the Egyptian goddess of cats]], has the ability to give people a magnetic center, causing metal to be pulled toward them. Its physical form resembles an electrical outlet.
-----
* AdaptationalAttractiveness: A more downplayed example; she's been beautiful since the beginning, but the 2014 anime made her shirt skimpier and added a cup size or two to her breasts.
* BareYourMidriff: She has her midriff bare, to help the heat and looking sexier.
* BreastExpansion: In the 2014 anime, her chest is bigger than in the manga. Not to mention when her breasts "enlarge" when Joseph and Avdol corner her.
* DarkChick: The only female member of the 9 Gods and she embodies the [[LightFeminineAndDarkFeminine Dark Feminine to a T]]. Since she doesn't fight directly, relying solely on her stand, she's one of those indeed.
* DarkSkinnedBlonde: Either white or blonde; the effect is the same.
* DudeMagnet: Her ridiculous sexiness draws male attention nearly everywhere she goes according to an anime exclusive scene. And she seems to know it too, managing to impress both Joseph and Avdol with her legs alone. This is all very fitting considering that her Stand power is based on magnetism.
* GagBoobs: Averted. It's actually a bunch of nails, nuts, and bolts stuffed inside the outer layer of her bra, which get attracted to the magnetized Joseph and Avdol.
* FemmeFatale: Subverted. She looks like one indeed but she doesn't act like one.
* GetBackHereBoss: Non-video game example. Her Stand has no offensive or defensive capabilities and her Stand's magnetic powers disappear if she strays too far away from her targets. This means that she had to play a game of cat-and-mouse with Joseph and Avdol, staying close enough to get them to continually chase her but far away enough to stay out of their attack range.
* GigglingVillain: The majority of her dialogue consists of her giggling and laughing.
* GoblinFace: When angry, she makes an exaggeratedly hideous facial expression, complete with a runny nose and crossed, blood-shot eyes.
* HoistByHerOwnPetard: Joseph and Avdol use her magnetic powers to their advantage by getting on opposite sides of her while a good aggregate of steel and iron is stuck to them. When they let go of the ground, she [[SquashedFlat gets caught right between them both]].
* HollywoodMagnetism: Her power of magnetism is actually reasonably realistic -- the pull is stronger the closer two objects are, not all metals are affected, and the magnetic field pulls everything instead of just [[SelectiveMagnetism arbitrary objects]] -- with three exceptions:
** A car is pulled down the street and onto Avdol, even though Avdol wasn't being pulled toward the car.
** The magnetic field on Joseph and Avdol persists even after Avdol engulfs himself and Joseph with the flames of Magician's Red. Magnetic fields begin to deteriorate when exposed to temperatures above 176°F (80°C).
** She cuts some powerlines so they'll fly toward Joseph and electrocute him. Powerlines are made of copper and aluminum, neither of which is magnetic (the electricity running in them ''does'' generate a magnetic field, but it's a small one and it still wouldn't work that way).
* ImOkay: An odd variant of this; despite being brutally smashed between two cars and buried under a pile of wreckage, she still manages to close out her part with an insult to show she's still alive. Just to underline this, the narrator even proclaims she was taken to the hospital and retired due to her broken bones.
-->'''Mariah''': (''quietly, from underneath the scrap'') Damn you... pieces of ''shit...!''
* KnifeNut: She throws knives to cut some powerlines. They are her main weapons in the arcade fighter.
* LikesOlderMen: She mentions that Joseph is very sexy and that she would have been his lover if it were not for DIO being more attractive. This could count for DIO as well, considering that he's over a century old.
* MadeOfIron: Downplayed, but impressive nonetheless. While she obviously can't continue after being sandwiched between two giant piles of metal which included cars crashing together on both sides of her body, she ''lives'' through the experience and can even move slightly afterwards.
* MagnetismManipulation: Her power is the ability to magnetize anyone.
* MaleGaze: Her first appearance in the anime is a close butt shot. Not to mention the legs.
* MechanicallyUnusualFighter: Due to the way her Stand works, in fighting games, she focuses on a magnetism mechanic that's otherwise unique to her, and [[GuysSmashGirlsShoot tends to fight at range]] in games that focus a lot on melee combat.
* MsFanservice: A very attractive woman with a beautiful face, large bust, long and slender legs, and a sultry, mischievous personality. Too bad she's in league with DIO, though.
* SadlyMythtaken: Bastet in actual Egyptian myths was a cat goddess associated with the sun, fertility, music, and lionesses; and has absolutely nothing to do with electricity or magnetism.
* ShesGotLegs: As seen above, Mariah is a very long-legged young woman in a miniskirt, with ''very'' shapely thighs and buttocks; She gets many comments from the heroes on them; especially [[DirtyOldMan Joseph]], who uses them as the main means of identifying her as an enemy Stand User.
* SpellMyNameWithAnS:
** The arcade fighter spells her name as "Mahrahia".
** Her Stand's name is sometimes shortened to "Bast". Oddly enough, Crunchyroll's translation uses "Bastet" for the first of her TwoPartEpisode, and "Bast" for the other.
* SquashedFlat: How she's ultimately defeated, in a creative variation. Joseph and Avdol trick Mariah into having them on two sides of her at an intersection, using their respective opposite magnetic polarities from Bast to attract themselves -- and the huge piles of metal, including two cars, that they're respectively trapped under -- to each other, smashing Mariah between them. Granted, she ''does'' survive, but [[GameBreakingInjury needless to say, she's left in no condition to continue]].
* TorpedoTits: A variation: She keeps nuts, bolts and other small metal objects in the outer layer of her bra to fire off as shrapnel towards anyone she's magnetized.
* {{Underboobs}}: Only really noticeable if you're outright looking, but when Mariah is sent reeling in ''Heritage for the Future'', the front of her shirt blows upward to expose her midriff and the undersides of her breasts.
* VictoriasSecretCompartment: Weaponized; this is where she keeps nuts, bolts and other small metal objects to use against magnetized opponents.
* VillainousBreakdown: When she gets angry, she contorts her face into [[https://vignette.wikia.nocookie.net/jjba/images/b/bd/MariahFacefault_Anime.png/revision/latest?cb=20150517103947 hilariously ugly expressions]]. She even does it in ''[[VideoGame/JojosBizarreAdventureHeritageForTheFuture Heritage for the Future]]'' as her stun animation.
-->'''Mariah''': So you think you've outsmarted me...? You... '''OBNOXIOUS PIECES OF ''SHIIIIIIIIIIIIT!'''''
* WhiteHairBlackHeart: She has white hair in the anime, and is a devoted servant of DIO.
* WorthyOpponent: She expresses to Joseph that she views him as such as [[SilverFox she flirts with him for being amazing, charming and good-looking]]. Joseph uses it to attempt to reason with her, but she refuses to save him on the basis that he's not as good as DIO in those regards.

[[folder:Alessi]]
!!Alessi (Stand: Sethan)
!!!'''Voiced by:''' Creator/MasayaOnosaka (TV anime), Tsutomu Tareki (''Heritage for the Future'' video game) (Japanese), Jon Allen (TV anime) (English)

[[quoteright:350:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/alessi.png]]
[[caption-width-right:350:[[labelnote:Sethan]]\\
https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/sethan.png[[/labelnote]]]]

->''You seem to understand, now! That's a good baby!''
An assassin of DIO that attacks Jotaro and Polnareff, who will only fight people who are weaker than him. He is named after the [[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alessi_Brothers Alessi Brothers]].

His Stand, Sethan, named after [[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Set_(deity) the Egyptian god of violence and storms]], has the ability to rapidly de-age anyone immersed in its shadow, capable of reducing adults back to children in mere seconds.
----
* AnAxeToGrind: Twofold. Alessi carries a giant one-handed axe with him that he uses as his primary weapon. Holding the physical axe is reflected in his shadow and since his shadow is his Stand, Sethan has a weapon as well. Simply put; Alessi's axe allows him to cut people, whilst Sethan's axe allows him to cut Stands.
* AnimalMotifs: Birds. His big hairdo looks like a bird's nest, Sethan is based on the avian-headed God of the same name and has a bird's beak, has a thin face and a high-pitched, fluty voice like a songbird, assumes a kid-dified Polnareff is hiding inside a cuckoo clock, sees CirclingBirdies when he knocks himself unconscious, and is defeated by being sent flying high through the air.
* AnimeHair: Has one of the craziest hairstyles in the entire series: an enormous sideways perm with bells dangling from hair ties weaved into it.
* AxCrazy: Quite [[AnAxeToGrind literally]]. He wields a single-handed axe as his weapon, which he most often wields when he's de-aged his victims using Sethan. Most notably in ''Heritage for the Future'', he takes it out when he successfully shrinks his opponent, during which he does more damage and gains a faster forward dash.
* CastingAShadow: Sethan takes the form of Alessi's shadow, which de-ages (or transforms) anyone who touches it. It's also used as a standard weapon in ''Heritage for the Future''.
* CatchPhrase: "Such a good boy!" (Localized as "Attaboy!" in the anime's dub). Whether referring to himself (anything ''but'' good) or his victims.
* ChildHater: He has nothing but hatred for children and delights in bringing them harm. Fortunately for him, his Stand allows him to turn his enemies into children.
* CombatPragmatist: After de-aging and hanging him in a position he can't move from, he immediately pulls out a gun on Polnareff.
* CreepyHighPitchedVoice: Has a very slimy, high-pitched voice that oozes contempt and repressed bloodlust, not unlike a stereotypical paedophile. Naturally, [[PaedoHunt this makes him especially creepy when talking to children]]: to the point where viewers [[DoesThisRemindYouOfAnything seeing him talking to the boy who spills mud on his pants in the anime were so uncomfortable]], they were ''glad'' to just have it building up to Alessi yelling at and smacking him.
* DeathByDeaging: Sethan de-ages people in seconds, which results in a woman who was in its shadow too long to regress to a fetus. She would've died had Alessi not been knocked out in a few minutes.
* DidNotThinkThisThrough: He's confident of victory after he de-ages Jotaro, who only learned to use Star Platinum as an adult and temporarily loses his Stand. Alessi doesn't consider that a teenager who's [[HeroicBuild six-foot-four and insanely muscular]] just ''might'' have been big for his age as a child.
* DirtyCoward: And ''how''. He'll gleefully attack both children and anyone he's turned into a child, but runs away in panic at the prospect of facing any adult nearby -- including a Standless woman who couldn't possibly do him any harm -- as well as any of his young victims who ''do'' maintain the ability to fight back, most notably fleeing after getting beaten up by a seven-year-old Jotaro and repeatedly hurt by a ''two-year-old'' Silver Chariot. Even [[ButtMonkey Hol Horse]] (who swears by the "run away to fight another day" approach) looks like the bravest man in the world next to how ''spineless'' Alessi truly is.
* EstablishingCharacterMoment: When he first appears, Alessi establishes his WouldHurtAChild character when he smacks a four-year-old kid who had simply ran and spilled food all over Alessi's clothes by accident. Furthermore, eagle-eyed viewers will notice that he makes sure [[DirtyCoward neither of the kid's parents are around]] before he attacks the kid.
* EvilOverlooker: Alessi [[https://imgur.com/oPelHZd gets one of these shots]] in his ''Heritage For The Future'' [[TheBadGuyWins ending]], looming menacingly over a city when he [[FromBadToWorse sets about torturing the rest of the world]] after defeating both DIO and the Joestar group.
* FacialHorror: Gets his face slashed by the two-year-old Silver Chariot when the similarly de-aged Polnareff tricks him into attacking a mirror and fishtank-based decoy.
* ForTheEvulz: In his ''Heritage for the Future'' ending. Although Alessi is pretty much set for life after destroying both the Joestar group -- the only ones who can stop him -- and DIO to take all his treasure, he turns his attention to the rest of the world; using his Stand to steal from and torture people just because he ''can''.
* FountainOfYouth: Sethan does this to Alessi's victims, all the way to childhood, toddlerhood... or fetus-hood, if they stay ''really'' long in Sethan's shadow. It doesn't help that Alessi just ''loves'' to ravage the weak.
* GigglingVillain: Has a tendency to break into [[LaughingMad crazy fits of high-pitched laughter]] when he gains the upper hand using [[DeathByDeaging Sethan]]... or at least, when he ''thinks'' he has.
* HateSink: Alessi is ''definitely'' the most unlikable, petty and obnoxious of the Egypt 9 Glory Gods faced by Jotaro and crew after their arrival in Egypt, save perhaps for Telence T. D'Arby mentioned below. While there are several moments where his {{Jerkass}}ery is PlayedForLaughs and his [[DoubleTake wild expressiveness]] and [[LaughablyEvil sheer incompetence are somewhat entertaining to watch]], he is still a thoroughly-despicable scumbag, which is given for a [[DirtyCoward child abuser]] with ''[[WouldHurtAChild incredibly]]'' [[WouldHurtAChild paedophilic undertones]]. He easily rivals Steely Dan when it comes to being a reprehensible piece of work; which is further emphasized when he [[CurbStompBattle gets his ass handed to him]] by a freaking ''seven-year-old'' Jotaro and '''''three-year-old''''' Polnareff!
* HeresJohnnyHomage: After [[BrainyBaby seemingly]] cornering a de-aged Polnareff into a small room, he uses his axe to break down the door and pokes his head through the hole.
-->'''Alessi''': [[ManiacTongue RERO, RERORERORERORERO]] ''[[ManiacTongue REROOOOO!]]'' '''OH, POLNAREFF, ''HERE COMES ALESSI!'''''
* HoistByHisOwnPetard: After getting pummeled silly by a seven-year-old Jotaro, Alessi stumbles backward, trips over his own axe -- which [[TheBladeAlwaysLandsPointyEndIn he dropped and embedded in the ground]] only moments beforehand -- and hits his head on the floor, knocking ''himself'' unconscious and turning his victims back into adults.
* InelegantBlubbering: As if he wasn't enough of a despicable coward already, [[DirtyCoward Alessi runs away screaming and crying]] before throwing himself out of a window to get away from Polnareff, after having his nose skewered and face slashed repeatedly by a two-year-old Silver Chariot.
-->'''Alessi''': (''loudly sobbing'') A BAD BOY! BAD BOOOOOOY! '''SUCH A BAD ''BOOOOOOOOOY!'''''
* InsaneTrollLogic: He uses this to rationalize his... habits, by claiming that people who say they are "weird" and call themselves that can't possibly be "weird" if they are self-aware about their [[PsychoForHire "weird]][[WouldHurtAChild ness"]]. Likewise, his rationale for turning the rest of the world into children in his ''Heritage For The Future'' ending:
-->'''Alessi:''' Children don't need money! That means all the money in the world will be mine! [[LeaningOnTheFourthWall It makes perfect sense, doesn't it?]]
* {{Jerkass}}: On top of being a psychotic killer, he's just a plain arrogant asshole, to boot. The second he thinks he's the strong one in a fight, he gloats at every single opportunity of how children can't stand up to him.
* LargeHam: As someone who openly embraces his inherent "weirdness" and murderous streak, Alessi is this to the core: right down to his [[AnimeHair hair]], [[NoIndoorVoice apparent lack of volume control]], and [[WildTake various crazed expressions]] whenever he's going after his victims or when his schemes go wrong.
* LaserGuidedAmnesia: A side effect of his Stand's de-aging powers. People who are affected will slowly lose their memories of their adulthood, which stops Polnareff from being able to communicate with Jotaro, having forgotten his name.
* LaughablyEvil: A crazy, murderous psycho to the core, but damn if he isn't funny to watch. At one point, he thought a [[FountainOfYouth childized]] Polareff was hiding in a ''cuckoo clock.''
* OhCrap: Owing to his nature as both [[WildTake wildly expressive]] and a [[DirtyCoward reprehensible coward]], Alessi has several ''massively'' overblown reactions of this sort whenever things go wrong for him.
* OnlyInItForTheMoney: As he's about to kill Jotaro and Polnareff he mentions that he's only allied with DIO just so he could claim a money reward. Made even more apparent in ''Heritage for the Future'', where [[spoiler:he betrays and kills DIO after defeating the MainCharacters because he has no reason to ally himself with DIO anymore. He even turns everyone in the world into kids just so he can take their money]].
* PsychoForHire: He and J. Geil are easily the most kill-happy of DIO's servants.
* SinisterShades: TriangleShades, to boot, they drive home his creepy image.
* SongsInTheKeyOfPanic: Alessi's [[https://youtu.be/VF0qYg6-_pQ theme]] in ''VideoGame/JoJosBizarreAdventureHeritageForTheFuture'' is one of these, a tense and creepy [[PsychoStrings Psycho-string]]-backed leitmotif which fits a crazed would-be child killer like himself.
* SpellMyNameWithAnS: His Stand's name is sometimes spelled "Set", an alternative name of the Egyptian god it's named after.
* TheStarscream: In ''Heritage for the Future'', [[spoiler:after defeating the MainCharacters, he begins to believe he is better than DIO to the point where he betrays and kills DIO and then turns everyone in the world into children so that he can come into ownership of all their money]].
* TooDumbToLive: He ''[[DestinationDefenestration jumps out a two-story window]]'' to escape from a toddlerized Polnareff, with nothing below to break his fall. Miraculously, he survives.
* TwinkleInTheSky: In the anime, Alessi is defeated in this manner; after being momentarily knocked unconscious by seven-year-old Jotaro, he wakes up to find both him and Polnareff fully-recovered and looming over him, prompting a ''glorious'' "OhCrap" reaction. Then, after being hit with a long CombinationAttack from both Star Platinum and Silver Chariot, he's hurled high into the sky and flies off.
'''Narrator''': Stand, Set; God of Chaos and Storms! Alessi, [[ExpoSpeakGag 38 years old, single, and an unfortunate projectile!]] (''Alessi disappears from sight with an audible ding'') '''OUT OF COMMISSION!'''
* UnderestimatingBadassery: Despite knowing how strong Jotaro is, he was so swept up in his gloating that he failed to even consider that a younger Jotaro ''might'' be nearly as strong as his older self.
-->'''Alessi''': (''as young Jotaro sends him reeling'') [[BigWhat WHAT?!]] You're seriously telling me that [[OhCrap Jotaro could kick ass even as a little kid?!]]\\
'''Polnareff:''' I knew he was tough, but [[PintSizedPowerhouse he was]] ''[[PintSizedPowerhouse that]]'' [[PintSizedPowerhouse strong as a kid?]] (''admiringly'') Badass!
* WildTake: Undoubtedly one of the most expressive and hammy villains in the entire part, which really adds to both how hilarious and creepy he can be in equal measure.
* WouldHitAGirl: An unrelated woman was turned into a fetus by his power, which would kill her a few minutes later if he wasn't knocked out. He tries to use her plight as bait for Polnareff to stop fighting him.
* WouldHurtAChild: Using his Stand offensively pretty much requires him to attack people he's turned into children, but he very specifically ''[[BadPowersBadPeople enjoys]]'' beating and killing them that way. He also beats a real child for accidentally getting his pants wet.
* WoundedGazelleGambit: When Alessi falls out of a window running away from a two-year-old Polnareff and Silver Chariot, he ends up in front of Jotaro and [[BlatantLies pretends to be a window-cleaner to buy himself some time]]. When Polnareff appears from said window and tries to explain, he uses the distraction to sic Sethan on Jotaro and reduce him down to a seven-year-old. But ''even then'', [[PaperTiger he still can't beat him in a fight]].

https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/osiris_animeav.png[[/labelnote]]]]
->''Open the game!''

A gambler that the Joestars fight in order to know the location of DIO's mansion. He is the older brother of Telence. He is named after Sananda Maitreya, formerly and more famously known as [[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Terence_Trent_D%27Arby Terence Trent D'Arby]].\\\

His Stand, Osiris, named after [[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Osiris the Egyptian god of the underworld]], is an ogre-like creature that has the ability to steal one's soul when they admit defeat in their heart. He facilitates this through gambling, stealing the victim's soul when he wins.\\\

Don't confuse him with Steely Dan.
-----
* UsefulNotes/AmericanAccents: In the OVA, D'Arby speaks with a smooth-yet-noticeable Southern drawl that especially shows when he's got the upper hand in one of his games.
* AffablyEvil: While he is [[CardCarryingVillain an outright cheater who collects souls]], he is willing to let the group go if they decline to continue and is only interested in a cheap thrill in gambling when not fighting for DIO. He openly tells Jotaro and friends that they can back away if they choose to before their games, and has no interest in starting a fight. He also keeps the souls he collects dormant, while his brother has them completely aware of their situations. Souls to him are only trophies and potential collateral, as he enjoys gambling for the sport and thrill of it over childish obsessions.
* ALighterShadeOfBlack: While Daniel is a shameless cheater who's confident in his trade and treats his victims like trophies. While vile, he behaves a confident professional who doesn't dwell on his collection- which he keeps his victims dormant and in comparison to his younger brother who [[AndIMustScream traps his victims as dolls fully aware of their situation]], he comes across as the nobler of the two by a wide margin.
* AlwaysSomeoneBetter: Is this to his younger brother Telence, being a far more skilled player and cheater than his younger brother.
* AmbiguousSituation: Terrence accuses Daniel of cheating with the former's girlfriend, leading to the former beating his older brother in retaliation. Given that Terrence [[ConsummateLiar shows the capacity to be deceitful]] and Daniel never showed any overtly negative traits outside of being a confident and shameless cheater- it's likely that Daniel was actually sparing the woman from being involved with his psychotic younger brother.
** Daniel was already being rattled by Jotaro not looking at his cards while making increasingly absurd bets of confidence in them being his ace in the hole. What really began his FreakOut was Jotaro seemingly plucking a cigarette and glass of juice out of nowhere. Was it merely the fact that his untraceable speed, which would make him be able to get away with cheating to thus make Daniel spill out the truth of DIO's Stand, or was it [[spoiler: him suspecting that Jotaro had the same power- specifically TimeStandsStill- DIO had]], which make him even more worried that his boss would punish him for not dealing with such a threat earlier. The former is taking the situation at face value that Jotaro managed to bluff himself as being a better cheater than Daniel while the latter is taking into account that Daniel had faced this situation before and connected the dots enough to be ProperlyParanoid about Jotaro's power.
* BadassInANiceSuit: He doesn't fight in the conventional sense -- preferring instead to beat opponents using his mind -- but that's still a pretty classy suit he's rocking.
* BadassMustache: Manages to defeat several characters in his games before being defeated -- including Polnareff and Joseph, and even ''then'', he came very close to defeating the others as well if not for [[NervesOfSteel Jotaro's bluff]] -- and his mustache is rather refined.
* BerserkButton: Mispronouncing his name. He nearly lost to Joseph because Joseph kept calling him different names just to piss him off.
* BreakThemByTalking: As is befitting of a pro gambler, half his battle with his foes includes him psyching them out. In fact, this is how his power works: he only gets your soul when you realize, in your heart, that you've been beaten. Too bad Jotaro's poker face is even better.
* BreakTheHaughty: One of the best remembered examples in the series, Jotaro shatters his sheer confidence and sanity utterly through a bluff.
* BreakoutVillain: He's one of the most popular of DIO's minions. He's the only one of the Nine Egypt Glory Gods aside from N'Doul who's ''not'' omitted from the OVA. He's also a PuzzleBoss in the ''Eyes Of Heaven'' video game, where you have to play him in a game of Poker for [[Manga/JoJosBizarreAdventureStoneOcean Jolyne's]] soul.
* BrokenTears: In the OVA, after losing to Jotaro in their poker game (and by extension losing his entire collection of souls) and having realized he's just spilled the location of DIO's mansion during his earlier fit of madness, [[TroubledFetalPosition D'Arby curls into a ball on the ground]] and breaks down in howling tears of despair.
* CantKillYouStillNeedYou: Avdol comes close to killing him after he took Joseph's and Polnareff's souls, but D'Arby, without any fear, correctly points out that [[DeadMansSwitch if he does go through with the deed, then Avdol loses the one means to get back his friends' souls]]; and they'll accordingly [[AndIMustScream be trapped forever]].
* TheCollector: He collects souls, but he keeps them dormant, preferring the thrill of gambling to the obsession of collecting people, unlike his [[PsychopathicManchild brother]].
* ConMan: He has flowery dialogue and the smooth, snake-oily voice of a used car salesman, and in both the main series and ''Eyes of Heaven'' he only obtains his first soul -- which he then uses as leverage over the rest of the heroes -- by conning someone with a rigged game. In the main series it's double subverted -- initially, he only seems like a lucky gambler, but his victory over Joseph establishes that he was cheating from the very beginning.
* CrazyPrepared: ''Everyone'' in or near the bar the Crusaders enter is under his employ to help rig games in his favor, on the off-chance somebody is able to catch him cheating.
* DiseaseBleach: In the anime, the stress induced by Jotaro's bluff causes his black hair to turn light grey.
* DrivenToMadness: By the end of his confrontation with Jotaro, he's left giggling madly on the floor while babbling about daring others to gamble with him.
* DubNameChange: Kinda. The English dub of the anime put both Daniel and Telence on a LastNameBasis, the only difference between the two being Daniel is called D'Arby the Elder while Telence is called D'Arby the Younger.
* {{Ephebophile}}: Implied. When he tried to steal his brother's girlfriend, he was 25 at the time while Telence ''was 15'' (and his girlfriend looked around the same age). [[ConsummateLiar Though it's also implied that Telence himself is actually twisting the truth of the situation to his favor]].
* EvenEvilHasStandards:
** What separates himself from Telence is that he keeps his soul collection in a dormant state incapable of suffering, preferring gambling over an obsession of collection.
** He also uses cunning when cheating, especially against Joseph, who excels at underhanded tactics. In contrast, Telence uses his MindReading power as a crutch, while claiming to not cheat.
** It's implied through [[AmbiguousSituation reading between the lines]] that Daniel was likely sparing the girl from being involved with Terrence given his true nature of putting people in AndIMustScream scenarios.
* EvilCounterpart: Araki explicitly created him to give a famous cheater like Joseph a BattleOfWits against someone who could be his equal.
* EvilSoundsDeep: In all adaptations. After losing his mind in the animated adaptations, his voice shifts up an octave as he starts giggling and babbling madly.
-->'''D'arby:''' (''[[LaughingMad lying on the floor and giggling like a lunatic]]'') Come on, everyone! Let's play a game of mah-jong! Backgammon is a lot of fun, too! Or we could play a game of dice, even though ''I don't have anyyyyyyyy!''
* FightsLikeANormal: From a storytelling standpoint, Osiris is only there to raise the stakes of D'Arby's games -- even though some of his cheating borders on improbable, it's very realistic and within the bounds of human ability when compared to Stands or Hamon. This serves as a contrast to his brother, who uses his Stand's powers as a complete crutch when gambling.
* {{Foil}}: Daniel is one to his younger brother Telence. While Daniel is AffablyEvil who's genuinely polite if not somewhat condescending to his opponents, his brother Telence comes off as FauxAffablyEvil where his politeness does little to conceal the sadism within. While both are cheaters, Daniel prefers the BoringButPractical approach by relying on his cunning alone, whereas Telence mainly relies on the power of his Stand to read his opponents' moves. Daniel is also more honest on the fact that he's cheating, justifying that it's only fair if his cheating is not exposed. Telence, on the other hand, relies on hidden technicalities to make his mind-reading legal and hypocritically claims that he would not resort to such tactics when it's clear that he would do so when pushed into a corner.
* TheGambler: It's implied he managed to make quite a comfortable living thanks to this trope, even before acquiring his Stand power. Of course, he may have had Osiris from birth. A comment Telence makes about an event that happened about a decade earlier suggests that they had Stands even back then, before Enya ever met DIO or acquired an Arrow from Diavolo.
* GigglingVillain: In both animated adaptations, during his VillainousBreakdown.
* GracefulLoser: When he loses to Jotaro in another Poker game in ''Eyes of Heaven'', D'Arby -- having had time to reflect on his previous experience and VillainousBreakdown the first time they played -- concedes defeat without much of a fuss and even genuinely compliments his adversary for beating him twice. D'Arby also takes the time to warn Jotaro about [[PhysicalGod DIO Over Heaven]], albeit rationalizing it through him wanting to eventually capture a strong soul like Jotaro's for his own collection.
* GratuitousEnglish:
** "Good!"
** Also, "Go ahead, Mr. Joestar" when he has Joseph on the ropes during their gamble. Falls into [[JapaneseRanguage Gratuitous]] {{Engrish}} in the anime due to his actor's odd pronunciation. However, it starts to sound better in his appearance in ''Eyes of Heaven''.
--->'''2014 Anime!D'arby:''' Gou ahedd, Misster Josster!
* {{Irony}}: The irony about Darby is that despite being a gambler which relies on chance as much as wit, he always cheats before the game even starts to ensure that whenever he gambles with someone, he will always be in control of the situation. This ends up causing his downfall when Jotaro's own BatmanGambit counters all of Darby's cheating methods which leaves Darby without any control of the game. Because of his unwillingness to take the chance and call Jotaro's bluff which would have granted him victory, he ends up succumbing to his own stress and loses.
* ItsAWonderfulFailure: In ''Heritage for the Future'', his only role is to appear in the Continue screen while the dizzy character stands on a spotlight. If you continue, he'll give you a thumbs up and tell you ''[[GratuitousEnglish "GOOD!"]]''. If you let the timer run out, he summons Osiris to turn your character into a poker chip.
* LostHimInACardGame: His power allows people to gamble with souls. If he fully wins someone's soul, he gets to turn them into a poker chip which he keeps in his collection. He loses in one of the most epic ways possible.
* MadnessMantra: An unusual case, in that he can't quite say it out loud due to being so stressed out during his VillainousBreakdown.
--> '''D'arby:''' ''Call, call, call, call, call, call, call, call, call, call...''
* TheMagicPokerEquation: Largely justified as a result of him being a cheat -- his pivotal poker hand is four kings. It's his fears that Jotaro might pull out a straight flush, four aces, or five-of-a-kind (in the traditional manner of this trope, and due to Jotaro presumably ''also'' cheating) that causes him to fold -- ironically, in a subversion, Jotaro's hand was crap. He also averts this earlier in the game, when both players get fairly ordinary hands, seemingly to show that he isn't rigging it (assuming he could do so that precisely, anyway).
* MaliciousMisnaming: Daniel J. D'Arby's pretty picky about people pronouncing his name correctly, something Joseph tries to capitalize on during their water tension match.
* MostCommonCardGame: He plays Jotaro in a game of poker, and loses in the most spectacular fashion possible.
* NearVillainVictory: He was just '''''one''''' call away from taking out all the heroes.
* NotCheatingUnlessYouGetCaught: He ''lives'' by this rule, and outright ''admits'' that he cheats, seeing it as simply another part of the game. He even compliments Jotaro for being able to catch him. However, this rule applies to him too, which causes him to panic when it looks like Jotaro might have gotten away with cheating.
* OutGambitted: Magnificently by Jotaro. Despite being CrazyPrepared, Jotaro is able to successfully bluff him through a magnificent poker face, using Star Platinum's SuperSpeed to grab a cigarette and drink to plant the idea that he successfully switched out his bad hand under D'Arby's nose, and his willingness to bet his mother's soul against learning the secret of [=DIO's=] Stand to make D'Arby too afraid to call the match, thus forfeiting victory because D'Arby couldn't bring himself to risk his life from betraying DIO.
* PaperTiger: His Stand certainly looks impressive, but those muscles are all for show and it's incapable of physically protecting D'Arby without his opponents admitting defeat in their hearts; much less fight on his behalf. This allows Jotaro to break Daniel's finger with zero consequence.
* PragmaticAdaptation: In the anime's English dub, D'Arby's trademark [[GratuitousEnglish "GOOD!"]] is changed to the similarly hammy "OH-KAY!", to better match his animated lip-syncing.
* RightHandCat: Which he uses to score an easy victory against Polnareff.
* SanitySlippage: Suffers a ''massive'' stress-induced nervous breakdown from the stress in his final card game against Jotaro, when he's backed into a corner and given the option of folding to free his collection of souls, or calling with the secret of DIO's Stand and risking getting killed by him.
* SpiritedCompetitor: He opens his poker game with Jotaro by declaring that he's not fighting the Crusaders on behalf of DIO; he's just doing it for the thrill of the game. It's actually subverted -- he's scared of DIO's YouHaveFailedMe policy just like any of his other assassins. Jotaro exploits it by forcing D'Arby to wager the secret of DIO's Stand and creating the mere ''possibility'' that he might have to betray DIO, making him so paranoid that he begins to believe that Jotaro really did swap out his hand.
* SuperSenses: His eyesight is good enough to keep Star Platinum from switching the playing cards out. His sense of touch also allows him to identify cards without looking at them, making it a bad idea to let him shuffle.
* TakeAThirdOption: An unintentional example. Once Jotaro raises the stakes of their poker game to include the secret to DIO's Stand to the pot, D'Arby has two choices: He can fold and lose Joseph and Polnareff's souls (and with the secret of his Stand revealed, they'd have no reason ''not'' to just beat information out of him) or he can call the bluff and potentially have to betray his master (a very lethal idea) if he loses. His subsequent mental breakdown costs him victory, but he's so maddened from the stress that he renders himself completely incapable of speaking coherently, which prevents him from spilling the secret to DIO's Stand and probably saving his life.
* VillainousBreakdown: A truly ''epic'' one. [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WP1arj7AYuI Bear witness]].
-->'''D'Arby:''' I'll say it, damn it! I'll say it! I'm the greatest gambler in the world! I'll take this bet! I'll call! [[MadnessMantra Call, call, call, call, call, call, call, call, call, call...]] [[OutGambitted I'm going to call!]]
* WeakButSkilled: He himself admits he isn't a fighter but regardless he is dangerous because of his cheating skills and his talent for gambling. Additionally, unlike his brother, Daniel's Stand offers no other abilities beyond taking a defeated opponent's soul, which means he's competing with nothing but pure gambling and cheating experience like a normal human.
* WorthyOpponent: He declares Jotaro to be this after the latter sees through his first attempt to cheat and breaks his finger, taking said injury in stride and continuing the game as if nothing had happened. Jotaro, in turn, acknowledges that, while not violent, he still almost took them all out single-handedly and later notes that he would have easily seen through the cheat Jotaro used to beat Telence T. D'Arby.
* YourSoulIsMine: The results of someone losing in a gamble to him is their soul being taken by his Stand and transformed into a gambling chip. In contrast to his brother, he lets them remain unconscious until they're released.

!!Pet Shop (Stand: Horus)
[[quoteright:312:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/583e397eb76e781d9dcd4b35e68bd07a.png]]
[[caption-width-right:312:[[labelnote:Horus]]\\
https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/horus_animeav.png[[/labelnote]]]]
->''Niahh Kawww Jah! (I'm not your feathered friend!)''

A sapient falcon working for DIO, whose job is to eliminate anyone who comes to investigate the mansion or even tries to enter it. Brutal, cold, and merciless, he fights Iggy after he stumbles across the location of DIO's mansion. He is named after the Music/PetShopBoys.

His Stand, Horus, named after [[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Horus the Egyptian god of the sky]], can instantly generate and manipulate ice.
-----
* AttackAnimal: As the guardian of DIO's mansion, he relentlessly pursues and kills anyone who tries to intrude for whatever reason, not discriminating on whether they're intentionally trying to find it or just trespassing. Given [[AxCrazy his nature]], though, it almost makes you wonder if he even ''needs'' such a reason to kill in the first place.
* AttackBackfire: He's very vulnerable to this, as the ice generated by Horus can hurt ''him'' too if it's somehow redirected at him. Ultimately, he dies via [[HoistByHisOwnPetard exploding ice bolt trapped in his beak]].
* AxCrazy: It's clear that he can understand what Iggy's saying about not going near DIO's mansion anymore, he just doesn't ''care.'' He wants Iggy ''dead.''
* BrutalBirdOfPrey: A vicious falcon and guardian of DIO's mansion who also happens to be a Stand user.
* ButForMeItWasTuesday: His ending in ''[[VideoGame/JojosBizarreAdventureHeritageForTheFuture Heritage for the Future]]'' has him successfully killing all of the heroes and allowing DIO to take over everything unopposed: but even then, for the sheer ''joy'' of what he does, Pet Shop continues his role as guard bird as if nothing had happened.
* CoolPet: Let's say this again; an intelligent, vicious falcon with an Ice Stand who guards DIO and his mansion with lethal precision.
* DeathGlare: When not outright attacking, a murderous glare is essentially Pet Shop's default expression; effectively showing right off the bat that while he is intelligent enough to ''understand'' what Iggy's trying to tell him about not caring for DIO's Mansion, he's evil enough to [[LeaveNoWitnesses intend on tearing him to pieces anyway]]. It's especially unnerving when combined with one of his [[SlasherSmile smiles]].
-->'''Iggy''': (''to himself'') Those eyes... that's the thing with birds, you can ''never'' tell what they're thinking!
* DemBones: Horus is a half-frozen, skeletal bird of prey with multiple arms.
* {{Determinator}}: Pet Shop does not stop chasing Iggy until he dies. Part of what makes him so frightening is not only his sheer determination, raging bloodlust and the evident fun he takes in what he does, but how ''unpredictable'' he is. Several times he flies off like he thinks he's killed his target or been repelled by a successful attack; only for Pet Shop to turn out to be completely aware they're still alive, then [[JumpScare reappear at the worst possible moment]] and even more determined to kill.
* DubNameChange: In ''Eyes of Heaven'' he's called Animal Shop. An odd example as previous localized works -- ''Heritage for the Future'' and Crunchyroll dubs -- don't change his name.
* [[EarlyBirdCameo Early]]-[[JustForPun Bird]] [[EarlyBirdCameo Cameo]]: Makes a small appearance in Episode 5 of the anime, replacing the generic parrot perched on DIO's shoulder in the manga. This was due to how when Araki wrote the original manga, he was yet to plan out the character of Pet Shop at that point; so having DIO's personal attack bird there in a newer adaptation makes a lot more sense than the aforementioned parrot.
* EvilCounterpart: Can be considered this to Iggy: An IntellectualAnimal Stand-user with an elemental power that fills a sort of TeamPet role. The difference? [[PsychoForHire Pet Shop is evil]].
* EvilIsDeathlyCold. And really, it doesn't get much colder than a pitiless, intelligent sadist of a falcon who commands a frozen, half-skeletal bird of prey with cryokinesis.
* EvilLaugh: Despite usually being TheVoiceless, Pet Shop pulls off a variation of this if he wins in ''Heritage for the Future'': cawing in a manner that suggests he's chuckling evilly at his latest victim.
* EvilVirtues: Loyalty, resourcefulness and determination. Pet Shop is truly dedicated to his master and keeping his location a secret, and doesn't only target people deliberately scouting the mansion, but also trespassers. He's also [[CombatPragmatist more than willing to use any advantage he has to get them]].
* EyeScream: In one [[NightmareFuel/JojosBizarreAdventureStardustCrusaders memorably-horrifying sequence]], Pet Shop uses his beak to tear out the eye of one of the dogs he'd just brutally killed, and slowly eats it in front of his distraught owner.
* FacialHorror: Just before his head explodes from his own forming ice bolt being trapped inside it by Iggy's suicide attack, Pet Shop's beak can be seen cracking to pieces right before he dies.
* FatalFlaw: Wrath. Pet Shop's sheer determination to kill Iggy, even after the latter offers to leave both him and DIO's mansion alone after initially wounding him, is what ultimately leads to him being killed instead. By extension, it also catalyses [[NiceJobFixingItVillain Iggy leading the Joestar group to DIO's mansion]]; before that, he didn't care at all and even says as much when offering his truce.
* FeatheredFiend: A super-fast sapient guard falcon with ice powers, and a ''very'' creepy {{Sadist}} to boot.
* {{Foil}}: Serves as one to Iggy, both being the [[TeamPet Team Pets]] of their respective sides. However, while Iggy is ultimately a good guy despite caring only for himself and not the Crusaders' cause, Pet Shop is undeniably evil while also being [[UndyingLoyalty completely loyal to his master]] and determined to protect him at all costs. He shows what Iggy may have become if he abandoned his few scruples and was influenced by someone like DIO.
* GateGuardian: Pet Shop serves as the guardian of DIO's mansion and he will attack and kill anyone who is trying to look for his mansion, intruders or other living beings that are near the mansion. Once Pet Shop dies, DIO lets the Joestar Group in and orders his other servants inside the mansion to handle them.
* GlassCannon: Pet Shop will generally be this whenever he's a playable character in one of the tie-in games. He's very fast and agile, able to fly and easily trap his opponents in ice, and his damage output in particular is ''insane''. Being a bird though, his durability often tends to be the worst in the game. In ''Eyes of Heaven'', this is an exploitable weakness; although Pet Shop can fly fast to easily avoid most attacks, he has to come down periodically to roost, which a savvy player can use to attack him when he has to land.
* HoistByHisOwnPetard: Iggy bites Pet Shop's beak closed before he can fire an ice bolt from his throat, which causes it to expand and eventually burst inside his own head.
* AnIcePerson: Horus's powers are ice-based, allowing Pet Shop to use attacks such as a FreezeRay-like beam that can solidify anything it touches, and launch barrages of razor-sharp icicles like homing missiles.
* ImplacableMan: In this case, implacable animal. Iggy tries to lose him several times but he keeps coming regardless. Even trying to hide at the bottom of the deep local river doesn't deter Pet Shop: he just dives in after him and takes full advantage of his species' innate ability to stay underwater for long periods.
* IncorrectAnimalNoise: Even though he's a falcon, he sounds more like a vulture in the anime.
* IntellectualAnimal: Even though we never know for certain what Pet Shop is thinking, it's clear that -- much like Iggy and Forever before him -- he is much smarter than an average bird.
* JumpScare: Pet Shop's fight with Iggy has him pulling several genuinely frightening variations of these. He forces the terrier to retreat several times, and then each time Iggy thinks he's gotten away, Pet Shop either pursues him or is already there to ambush him; even underground and deep underwater.
-->'''Iggy''': (''while hiding, runs into Pet Shop'') AAAAGH! What is this freaking bird's ''deal?!''
* KnightOfCerebus: Especially after the comical duo of Boingo and Hol Horse. Pet Shop has quite the kill count for a bird, killing two dogs as well as a man who helps out the Joestars, and gives Iggy the bloodiest fight up to that point in Part 3. Once he appears, the last two Stand users the group faces give the group the hardest fight they would have. And whereas the other Nine Glory Gods all had their comedic quirks and other aspects that helped dilute the fear factor they had somewhat (even [[AxCrazy Alessi]] and [[LivingDollCollector Telence T. D'Arby]]), Pet Shop has no such things. The sheer primal ''terror'' of fighting him is played completely straight the whole time.
* LeaveNoWitnesses: Pet Shop's entire ''modus operandi''. If anyone, regardless of age, species or intention -- be they intentionally trespassing or simply stumbling in -- comes within range of DIO's mansion, he'll immediately pursue and mercilessly kill them to keep its true purpose a secret for his master.
* LighterAndSofter: Downplayed. Although Pet Shop is still an absolute terror to fight in ''Heritage For The Future'', some of his [[SuddenlyVoiced now-translated shrieks]] in his victory quotes give the bloodthirsty bird a snarky and even slightly humorous side to him among all his usual creepiness.
-->'''Pet Shop''': Kyooooooon! (It's a little worm!)\\
'''Pet Shop''': Gyaaah! (Go back to your coop!)\\
'''Pet Shop''': Gyoe! (Leave my tail feathers alone!)
* LightningBruiser: Doubles as both this and a GlassCannon. Although Pet Shop's durability is lacking due to being a bird, his sheer speed and attacking power, combined with his [[{{Determinator}} persistence]] and expansive knowledge of ambushing and killing, makes him a real force to be reckoned with. In the end, Iggy is only barely able to defeat him with an [[DeathOrGloryAttack all-or-nothing suicide attack]], and would have [[MutualKill certainly died as well]] without the assistance of [[AndroclesLion the boy he'd rescued from Pet Shop earlier]].
* MacrossMissileMassacre: He can do this by launching several icicles like missiles. To top it off, the icicles will explode and freeze anything they collide with.
* MaliciousMisnaming: In the dub, Iggy refers to Pet Shop exclusively in insulting terms like [[WesternAnimation/LooneyTunes "Tweety"]], "Feather Boy", and [[BrooklynRage "That Boid"]] (bird), due to not actually knowing his name.
* MultiArmedAndDangerous: Horus itself has multiple arms with sharp three-fingered claws, which it often uses to form, hold and then throw Pet Shop's giant icicles when he goes on the attack.
* NiceHat: Wears a cool-looking feathered falconry cap adorned with [[WickedHeartSymbol his master's heart patterns]].
* OhCrap: It's understated, but the look in his eyes when Iggy bites his beak shut and traps the forming ice bolt inside his head shows he knew just how ''fucked'' he was.
* PsychoForHire: While he can't speak, nor can we see his thoughts like Iggy's, it's quite plain that not only is he intelligent, he's flat-out ''evil''. [[EyeScream Those dogs, man, geez]]...
* PsychoticSmirk: Despite being a bird, and therefore ''theoretically'' unable to change his expression easily, Pet Shop has this skill down to a T, often combining it with a KubrickStare. It goes to show, without any words whatsoever, just how much he enjoys killing and maiming his prey even beyond what's necessary.
* {{Sadist}}: It's very clear from his PsychoticSmirk several times during his fight with Iggy that he ''relishes'' his duties, particularly enjoying the terror he inflicts on his prey as he actively hunts and corners them, before [[CruelAndUnusualDeath killing them as violently as possible]].
* ScarfOfAsskicking: Along with his falconry cap, Pet Shop also wears a long, flowing pink scarf.
* SecretKeeper: Pet Shop not only serves as a gatekeeper, he also prevents knowledge of DIO's location from getting out: as seen when he steals and immediately destroys the photographs of DIO's mansion from the man in the car, after mulching him with a giant icicle.
* SelfSurgery: Freezes shut a wound that Iggy inflicted on him using the powers of Horus.
* ShownTheirWork: The explanation of why Pet Shop has an advantage over Iggy underwater; which is given as the bird pursues him beneath a deep river, just after forcing him to [[LifeOrLimbDecision gnaw off his own paw to escape an otherwise-fatal ice trap]].
-->'''Narrator''': Birds have the capacity to dive underwater. Like humans and canines, birds are reliant upon lungs for respiration: but the average bird has five to six air sacs stored away in its chest and stomach regions. It's these pockets of air that give birds the ability to remain conscious at altitudes of up to six to seven thousand meters: a feat completely impossible for humans! Even if it were to be strangled, a bird can survive for several minutes thanks to its internal air reserves. (''cut back to Pet Shop diving after Iggy'') With these advantages, a bird can survive underwater much longer than a dog!
* StealthPun: Put his name and his Stand's together. Pet Shop and Horus. Pet Shop of Horrors. Get it?
* SuperPersistentPredator: If you enter the grounds of DIO's mansion, you're a target: regardless of whether you were intentionally looking for it or not. Pet Shop chases Iggy all over Cairo, even pursuing him underwater and deep underground to try and get him.
* TeamPet: Pet Shop is what you get when the TeamPet turns evil.
* UncattyResemblance: It's pretty subtle, but when he delivers a PsychoticSmirk, he bears a slight resemblance to DIO. Much like his master, he also seems to [[KickTheDog especially hate dogs]].
* UpliftedAnimal: Like any animal who gains a Stand.
* TheVoiceless:
** Despite, like Iggy, evidently being highly intelligent for an animal; Pet Shop is never heard thinking aloud, and mostly does his fighting in grim silence. The rare times you ''do'' hear him vocalise, they're [[HellIsThatNoise very creepy distortions of regular bird of prey shrieks]] and other sounds: up to and including [[LaughingMad cawing that sounds like gleefully vicious laughter]] when he scores a kill.
** Subverted in ''Heritage For The Future'', where some of his screeches are translated in his victory dialogue:
--->'''Pet Shop''': Kyaah kaaw nii kyaaah! (Your bones will make me a fine nest!)\\
'''Pet Shop''': Kaaw... Kakaaw... Nyaah... (Rest under the shade of this tree...)
* WickedHeartSymbol: Pet Shop wears a heart on his falconry helmet -- not unlike his master who's adorned with them -- and shares the same raging bloodlust as him.
* WouldHurtAChild: After the poor kid crawls into DIO's estate looking for his dogs who have wandered in, Pet Shop dives down and gets ready to tear him apart, just like he'd just done with them. [[BigDamnHeroes Then Iggy jumps in]].
* YourHeadASplode: It's implied that Iggy trapping a forming ice bolt inside Pet Shop's beak led to this. We don't actually see his head's fragments, though, just his cracking beak, then an explosive cloud while looking at Pet Shop from behind.

[[folder:Telence T. D'Arby (the Younger)]]
!!Telence T. D'Arby (Stand: Atum)
!!!'''Voiced by:''' Creator/JunichiSuwabe (TV anime, ''All-Star Battle''), Creator/MitsuakiMadono (''Heritage for the Future'' video game) (Japanese), Creator/XanderMobus (TV anime) (English)

[[quoteright:350:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/telence_t_darby_anime.png]]
[[caption-width-right:350:[[labelnote:Atum]]\\
https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/atum_animeav.png[[/labelnote]]]]

The younger brother of Daniel J. D'Arby, he is the butler of DIO's mansion that fights the Joestars. He is named after [[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Terence_Trent_D%27Arby Terence Trent D'Arby/Sananda Maitreya]].\\\

His Stand, Atum, named after [[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Atum the Egyptian primordial creator god]], is similar to his brother's, having the ability to steal one's soul when they admit defeat in their heart. Unlike Daniel, however, his Stand ''also'' has the ability to read another person's soul, effectively reading their mind by asking questions with yes/no answers.
-----
* AdaptationalDyeJob: Has a brown-ish orange like hair color in the manga, in the anime, his hair is green.
* AintTooProudToBeg: Telence once he's cornered, subconsciously gives up Kakyoin and then consciously/pitifully begs to be spared after acting insufferably smug the entire fight. This serves to emphasize how pathetic he is in comparison to his brother, who had to be pushed to [[DrivenToMadness the brink of mental exhaustion to finally collapse]] while Telence folds under the slightest bit of pressure.
* AmbiguouslyBi: Of the DepravedBisexual variety. He's never outright stated to be bi, but the way he took his time fondling the Kakyoin doll after winning Kakyoin's soul, as well as how he fondly reminisces about changing the clothes on and talking to all his dolls suggests that he might swing both ways.
* AmbiguousSituation: His story with him beating up his older brother when the latter cheated with the former's girlfriend. Given the person [[ConsummateLiar telling the narrative]] and the lack of [[AffablyEvil truly perversive and negative attributes of Daniel outside of being a shameless cheater]], it's likely a fabrication to suit Terrence's ego and for the girlfriend that Daniel was likely saving from his younger brother's habit of [[AndIMustScream adding people to his collection]].
** It's not made as clear if the souls of Terrence's victims left their doll containers like Daniel's did once he was defeated or if only Kakyoin was freed with the others being permanently trapped.
** In stark contrast to Vanilla Ice and Kenny G, who are both unambiguously killed, it's unknown whether he was killed when Star Platinum pulverized him or if he was just knocked unconscious, since he's never seen again after being sent crashing through the ceiling.
* AndIMustScream: Unlike his brother, Telence doesn't leave the souls he collects dormant. Instead, he traps them in dolls that are aware of everything going on but unable to do anything. Unlike his brother's collected souls, we never see these return to their bodies either when he's defeated.
* AnimalMotifs: [[http://i1.kym-cdn.com/photos/images/original/000/953/872/482.gif Atum's upper facial structure]] bears quite a few similarities [[http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/1/19/Barn_Owl_-_Abingdon_2013_%288731175397%29.jpg to that of a barn owl]].
* AnimeHair: His hairdo is rather similar to Polnareff's... however, unlike Polnareff, his is probably ''curled'' into that style.
* AvengingTheVillain: Averted. The protagonists assume that he's interested in doing this for his brother, but Telence denies this.
* BatmanGambit: When racing against Kakyoin, he counted on the fact that Kakyoin would try and knock him off the track mid-air. Telence would then take advantage of the momentum to land on the other side of the track, so far ahead that Kakyoin would have no chance of catching up to him.
* BattleButler: Describes himself as this, but doesn't have nearly the tenacity and loyalty of Vanilla Ice.
* BeehiveHairdo: Started out with a short hair in his first appearance, only to become this out of nowhere a few pages later. It apparently mimics a pharaoh's crown, fitting his Stand's namesake.
* BroughtToYouByTheLetterS: His initials (T.D.) appear in the shape of the earrings he wears, and on his Stand's face.
* TheCollector: A [[PsychopathicManchild more psychotic and childish]] one compared to his brother.
* DickDastardlyStopsToCheat: He was a much more experienced gamer than Jotaro and could probably have beaten him legitimately, but he insisted on relying on Atum's abilities even after it became very clear that Jotaro was managing to circumvent them. This leads to him being defeated easily.
* DirtyCoward: He had the confidence and smugness that he can win any fight with his powers, but once the Joestars manage to outwit him, he panics, causing him to lose Kakyoin, and [[BlatantLies claim that he didn't lose the will to fight]]. He starts to [[AintTooProudToBeg beg Jotaro not to hit him]] and then [[ThisIsGonnaSuck panics that he's going to be pummeled anyway]]. In short, he acts high and mighty, but the slightest threat makes him crumble pitifully, which contrasts him with his brother who had to be DrivenToMadness by cornering him mentally/physically due to him taking any pressure with stride.
* DubNameChange: Kinda. The English dub of the 2014 anime put both Daniel and Telence on a LastNameBasis, the only difference between the two being Daniel is called D'Arby the Elder while Telence is called D'Arby the Younger.
* EvilSoundsDeep: Not quite as booming a voice as Daniel's, but it's still a baritone in the anime, courtesy of Creator/JunichiSuwabe.
* FairPlayVillain: PlayedWith. He technically never cheats, but this is a show of confidence rather than honor. He never breaks the rules because they're already established in a way that favors his Stand as detailed in LoopholeAbuse.
* FateWorseThanDeath: His Stand makes his victims fully aware of their situation, but unable to move or do anything besides talk to or interact with D'Arby as he makes them his (literal) playthings. As shown with some of his dolls, including Sonya (who [[StockholmSyndrome begs to talk to the man who imprisoned her]], and cries TearsOfJoy when he picks her up to show to the Joestar group), [[DeadlyDoctor Doctor Elliot]] (who [[LaughingMad laughs insanely]] and [[SerialKiller rants incomprehensively about the eight patients he murdered in life]]) and Tatsuhiko (who cries constant BrokenTears and [[IWantMyMommy begs for his mother]]), they've evidently been that way for likely several years; with [[SanitySlippage all the mental damage such imprisonment would do]] made ''abundantly'' clear.
* FauxAffablyEvil: Unlike his AffablyEvil brother, any form of politeness from Telence oozes of cruelty and sadism. As Kakyoin and Joseph put it after seeing his real personality as a LivingDollCollector:
-->'''Joseph''': (''horrified'') You're just as messed-up in the head as your brother. Actually, you're more sadistic than your brother ''ever'' was! I'd hate to see what your parents were like!\\
'''Kakyoin''': I'm out of patience with this sociopath's puppet show. ''He makes me sick''.
* {{Foil}}: Telence is one to his older brother Daniel. While both have Stands with the power to collect souls of their victims, Telence takes it a step further by allowing his victims be fully conscious of what's going on around them. While Daniel at least admits that he would not hesitate to cheat in his games, Telence claims he would not resort to cheating yet secretly tricks the opponent into accepting rules that favor Atum. Even their methods of cheating differ. Daniel primarily chooses the BoringButPractical approach, whereas Telence relies on the power of his Stand to help read his opponents' moves.
* {{Geek}}: He keeps a lot of video games, giving him a PsychopathicManchild vibe.
* GratuitousEnglish: Just like his brother, he also says "Good".
* HateSink: He's a nasty piece of work, much more so than even the other Nine Glory Gods. He absolutely ''oozes'' cruelty and sadism, and the Crusaders consider him a special brand of awful.
* {{Hypocrite}}: He condemns others for cheating, so what does his Stand do? Read his opponent's mind in order to have an advantage. Played with in that while his mind-reading technically isn't considered cheating, he's still tricking his opponent into accepting rules (allowing Stand usage) that heavily favor him, which they won't realize until it's too late because most opponents assume that Atum's only ability is soul stealing.
* IHaveYouNowMyPretty: After storing Kakyoin's soul into a doll, he starts touching him... rather suggestively. He taunts Jotaro and Joseph that harming him will also harm Kakyoin; as he strokes the doll's chest (with his hand stopping at the crotch area), peeks under his coat, rubs his cheek against his, and then strokes his cheek with one finger. It's heavily implied that he shows [[PsychopathicManchild this form of childish perversity]] to ''all'' of his dolls, especially when playing dress-up with them. The way he touches one of his victims, Sonia, is quite unnerving as well.
* InferioritySuperiorityComplex: He claims to be better than his older brother in every way, from his physical strength, to the way he preserves souls, to the fact that he (apparently) doesn't cheat. Which makes it all the more humiliating for Telence when Jotaro tells him that Daniel would have figured out how he had cheated right away, even with his lack of mind reading powers.
* KickTheSonOfABitch: One of his victim, [[DeadlyDoctor Dr. Elliott]], is a SerialKiller who killed 8 of his patients. While Telence is much worse, stealing Elliott's soul remains the closest thing to a good deed he ever did.
* LaserGuidedKarma: At one point, Telence recalls fondly how -- after [[DisproportionateRetribution catching his brother Daniel flirting with his then-girlfriend]] when they were younger -- [[NoHoldsBarredBeatdown he beat him to near-death]] and flat-out terrified the Elder D'Arby into never asking him to play games with him. With that being said, you only need ''one'' guess as to what happens to Telence in turn when he's defeated a few minutes later.
* {{Leitmotif}}: [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=f5Vm86dD3n0 Space of A Lone God]], an OminousMusicBoxTune with backing straight out of a horror movie, which perfectly fits his PsychopathicManchild personality and "collecting" methods.
* LivingDollCollector: His victims are still self-aware, unlike his brother's.
* LogicalWeakness: His mind-reading power can be vanquished with some clever thinking once you figure out the specifics of how it works:
** His Stand allows him a 100% accurate mind reading, but an extremely straightforward one, only allowing "yes" or "no" as answers. This is perfect when he has to go through a series of limited possibilities, since he can just test each of them. So the Crusaders defeat him with some lateral thinking.
** Telence has to be focusing on the targeted parties for Atum to affect them. This was instrumental in his downfall as Telence was so thoroughly convinced that Jotaro was cheating he never stopped to consider that Joseph might be in on it, instead laser focusing on Jotaro.
* LoopholeAbuse: Technically, both parties are allowed to use their Stands to assist them as long as they don't tamper with the game's mechanics or have allies interfere in the match, as shown by how Telence allowed Kakyoin to use Hierophant Green to assist with the controller. This means Telence is free to mind read his opponents while still following the rules of the game, since Atum has no effect on the game mechanics. On the other hand, most other Stands cannot use their ability in any meaningful way without breaking these rules. This is best shown when the game is allowed to continue despite Jotaro figuring out Atum's mind-reading ability.
* LostHimInACardGame: Same situation as his brother, only with the betting being done over video games.
* LovesTheSoundOfScreaming: He relishes in the sounds of despair of his victims.
* MaskOfSanity: He initially gives off an impression of being a polite yet snide villain like his elder brother, but it's soon revealed it hides his childish, sadistic, and psychotic nature as a LivingDollCollector who traps his victims [[AndIMustScream in dolls that are fully aware of their situation]].
* MeaningfulName: The Egyptian god Atum's name is derived from the verb meaning "to finish", and thus he was regarded as the finisher of the world. The Stand Atum is the last Egyptian deity themed Stand fought in the series.
* MindReading: His Stand's main power, which allows him to figure out the choice that the enemy will make.
* NightmareFetishist: And ''how''. Telence clearly takes a sadistic pleasure in the suffering of the [[CreepyDoll bizarre, frightening dolls with stolen human souls]] he keeps in his collection. What especially proves it is the reason why he keeps [[LaughingMad Doctor Elliot]] around in particular; because he enjoys listening to all the gruesome recounts of [[SerialKiller how the doctor murdered eight patients]] while he was alive.
* NoHoldsBarredBeatdown:
** He inflicted one on his brother for trying to steal his girlfriend. Keep in mind that at the time, Daniel was 25, and Telence was ''15''. Not only that, Daniel didn't even bother to defend himself, because he knew that with Atum, Telence would get around it anyway.
** As such, [[LaserGuidedKarma it fits that he himself is on the receiving end of one]], courtesy of Jotaro, once he is defeated.
* PaperTiger: His introduction is quite imposing with him being able to dodge Star Platinum and trap Jotaro's arm. Compared to his brother, Atum has some combat ability and his ability to read minds lets him predict attacks, but even with the prediction ability Atum is neither particularly fast nor strong. When he stops having the upperhand he resorts to begging and pleading.
* PracticallyDifferentGenerations: He's 10 years younger than his brother, and lampshades the large gap in their age when he remarks that they "are from different generations."
* PragmaticVillainy: Even when Jotaro proves himself to be a video game novice,[[note]]As in, he never even ''touched'' a game controller before ''Oh! That's a Baseball!''[[/note]] Telence still refuses to let his guard down against him. [[ProperlyParanoid After all, Jotaro never played poker before, either, yet he was still able to beat his brother Daniel in a card game.]]
* PsychopathicManchild: Unlike his brother, who was more businessman-like in his [[TheCollector idea of collecting]], he keeps them alive and conscious in the form of [[CreepyDoll immobile dolls]], and treats them like actual toys to play dress-up and chat with, not to mention his video game obsession.
* SeriousBusiness: Considering what Atum can do to your soul, video games become ''extremely'' serious business when he's around and your life is accordingly on the line.
* ShoutOut: In the English dub, he becomes this by way of CastingGag: a floating, predominantly white-clad villain voiced by Creator/XanderMobus who collects dolls made up of opponents he's defeated and has an in-depth knowledge of video games and their universes. [[VideoGame/SuperSmashBros Master Hand, is that you?]]
* SkilledButNaive: His mind-reading ability and gaming skills means he never needs to rely on cheating, but his lack of experience in cheating means he can't figure out how his opponent is cheating.
* SmugSnake: Oh, very much so. The first thing he does when challenging the heroes is to compare himself to his older brother, claiming he could only win through cheating against incompetent people. When the chips are down, however, while he is skilled at playing videogames, he actually relies on spamming his Stand's mind reading to win, and when it fails him he breaks down completely. In the end, he loses by not being able to think outside the box, failing to notice a trick his brother would have easily seen through.
* TheSociopath: He exhibits many typical traits of a textbook sociopath, including a LackOfEmpathy and manipulative nature. Kakyoin even calls him one in the English dub.
* SoreLoser: Becomes one when he starts losing to Jotaro and is unable to read his mind to find out ''how'' he's cheating.
* SpellMyNameWithAnS: There's a division between Te''r''ence and Te''l''ence.
* {{Telepathy}}: The root of his ability. If he asks a yes or no question, the subject's response can be checked like a lie detector. By wording his questions in certain ways, he can even "predict" an opponent's attacks and counter them.
* UnskilledButStrong: Whereas his older brother is a skilled gambler and cheater with or without Osiris backing him up, Telence utterly depends on Atum in order to win his games. Once Jotaro deduces Atum's limitations (and once Joseph figures out how to bypass its powers), he starts losing badly.
* VilerNewVillain: He is the last of the glory gods encountered and is only followed by Vanilla Ice before DIO himself. And not only is he more awful than his older brother, he is also the most heinous of DIO's goons since J. Geil! Is it any wonder why DIO is so fond of him?
* VillainInAWhiteSuit: He wears a natty white blazer and slacks, as befitting a self-described BattleButler.
* VillainousBreakdown: Not quite as bad as his brother, but still impressive. He gets increasingly desperate to figure out how Jotaro is cheating at the game, throwing out various possibilities only to keep getting a "No", and then angrily shouting that he ''knows'' Jotaro is cheating only to be answered with a resounding "Yes", but it means nothing if he doesn't know ''how'' he's doing it in order to counter. When he actually loses, he can only stare in shock for a few moments and try to frantically claim he can still win despite having given up Kakyoin's soul due to admitting defeat in his heart, and then he's reduced to begging Jotaro not to hurt him. At that point, Jotaro lets him read his mind to let him know ''exactly'' how this is about to go down, with increasing panic before he actually gets his beatdown.
* WickedHeartSymbol: Telence sports one on the shirt beneath his vest. Meanwhile, his Stand Atum has these practically everywhere but its head.
* WorthyOpponent: He views Kakyoin as this, due to his skills in F-Mega and the ability to conquer his fears. As well as being the first to genuinely make Telence nervous of losing. He also considers one of his previous victims, Tatsuhiko, as such, praising the latter's 190 I.Q. and noting that it wasn't easy to beat him.
* WouldHurtAChild: Has one in his doll collection.
* YouGottaHaveBlueHair: Has green hair in the anime.
