Profile

A proper English gentleman by the dictionary, Jonathan holds himself to a strict code of conduct befitting the noblesse oblige of the Joestar family. Possessed by an explosive drive and a personality suited to overcome adversity, every hardship seems to make him crank it up a notch and become even more intense in his efforts to conquer the difficulties presented before him. This big-hearted and resolute attitude endears him easily to others, even more so when they come to hear the tidbits of his sad tale that Jonathan is willing to share. Of his study into a mysterious stone mask, of his father's death at the hands of his adopted brother, Dio, and of the same man's transformation into an inhuman monster that feasts on human life, which prompted the appearance of Jonathan's now deceased master, William A. Zeppeli. Instructed in the Tibetan martial art of Hamon, which applies breathing techniques to generate an energy similar to sunlight, he set forth to eliminate Dio and his followers. Even now, Jonathan searches incessantly for any sign of where the vampire has scurried off to lick his wounds, and of any leads that would give him greater clarity on the nature of the vile Stone Mask that has caused such tragedy in the wake of its misuse.

Advantages

Defining

Hamon of the Sun: A Tibetan breathing exercise that causes the body to generate an energy similar to sunlight. Hamon has a great many applications, but its primary use is in burning away Undead and similar dark creatures of the night, so long as he maintains the breathing pattern necessary for it. As well, his already impressive physical might is further enhanced by his overflowing Sendō. Speed, Strength, Reflex, Stamina, are all boosted to an incredible degree, such that he becomes capable of lifting a three hundred pound anvil and throwing it with one hand, with enough force to smash the head of a Chimera.

Significant

Sendō Overdrive: A key trait of Ripple Energy is its conductivity. Energy travels in waves, and Hamon is no different as it can pass through a variety of objects solid or otherwise. Sendō is the technique that passes Ripple through something to attack, such as transmitting a wave of Ripple through a wall to blast something on the other side, without damaging the wall itself. Likewise, it can pass through an organic object to shatter something inorganic, an example being a charge of Ripple being sent through a frog to destroy the rock it was sitting on, without harming the frog in question. Sendō is a very useful trick up the sleeve of any Hamon practitioner worth their salt.

Scarlet Red Overdrive: Using Hamon to flood his hand with ripple, Jonathan can create ripple-charged fire through his own body heat. This Red Overdrive can pass to other parts of himself or to other people through physical contact and allows him to absorb nearby open flames into his Overdrive, increasing its power proportionately.

Turquoise Blue Overdrive: Hamon conducts best through liquids, water being one of the absolute best in that regard. With a large enough source of it present, Jonathan can suffuse the body of water with ripple, causing it to condense into a form closer to plasma than a liquid, massively amplifying the potency of his Hamon in the process, allowing for a potentially devastating punching or kicking attack that unleashes a short range blast. While difficult to use due to the circumstances necessary, it is without a doubt Jonathan's single strongest Overdrive.

Sunlight Yellow Overdrive: A continuous attack of Overdrives transmitted through Jonathan's fists, the entire duration of the attack is equivalent to being exposed to the high-noon sun, for a vampire. The output of ripple is unlike any other Overdrive attack Jonathan is known to perform, the mere residual energy has regenerative properties to living things, causing dead grass and flowers to bloom around his vicinity. While each individual punch of this Overdrive is weaker than a Blue Overdrive, the entirety of the attack is many magnitudes greater. It is considered Jonathan's Ultimate Technique.

Minor

Metal Silver Overdrive: Hamon conducts excellently through many types of metal, Jonathan's preferred method is charging his own weapon, the sword of Luck & Pluck, with ripple to increase its durability and cutting power. Especially against entities weak to Hamon, it goes through them like a hot knife through butter. As well, it can be used as a variation of Sendō to disarm some opponents, though it typically doesn't have a great effect. Even against Vampires, its inability to destroy them even with a direct hit makes it a very ineffective tool for dispatching them.

Life Magnetism Overdrive: With a little bit of time, Jonathan can use positive-negative Hamon to attach leaves or other similar materials together, inducing a magnetic effect. This can be used to create a compass, or even a hang-glider.

Navigation(Consent): With certain items, like a glass of wine, Jonathan can use Hamon to track others down. This is done through a reaction between the conductor and ripple that must already be present, if not in the body of the one being tracked, then in something on their person. Jonathan's ability to track others this way is constrained to knowing that they are nearby, and having an idea of how relative that is to his location.

Minor Regeneration: Ripple breathing produces a small regenerative effect. Insignificant wounds become ineffective until Ripple Breathing is interrupted.

Disadvantages

What Are You Doing?! Unforgivable!<Trouble>: Jonathan is an honorable man who follows the ethos of gentleman's code. He has very strict concepts of good and evil, and a fiery temper when prompted by what he considers despicable, into action. In such cases, Jonathan is prone to pick a fight regardless of how advantageous it would be to do so in a given situation or how well he could match up to his opponent.

Who'll Be The Last One Standing?!<Trouble>: Possessed by unbreakable willpower, Jonathan's drive isn't always a good thing. It means he isn't afraid to stand his ground and fight for what he believes to be right, with no regard to his chances of victory; his personality is very much prone to make him stand his ground and keep fighting until he dies. While this persistence can be a boon under the right conditions, it can be lethal in the wrong ones.

That's Enough, Dio!<Significant>: In regards to his adopted brother, Dio Brando, Jonathan has tunnel vision. Dio is a Vampire, and Jonathan feels responsible for his inhuman status, which came about due to his research into an ancient Stone Mask. Jonathan will go to any length to contain threats pertaining to the more gothic side of supernatural themes. This goes double for Dio himself, and the Stone Mask whose origins remain yet a mystery to everyone.

No! I Should Have Been There To Protect You..<Significant>: Jonathan's chivalrous nature makes it easy to exploit him through the people he cares about. Threatening his friends or family is a good way to incite him to action, making him easy to lead into traps. His existing Troubles mean that, even if he knows that he's walking into a trap, Jonathan won't back down from that fight.

This Is My Final Ripple..<Significant>: Practice of Hamon requires a very specific manner of breathing. Jonathan has been trained to breathe this way reflexively, but any sort of irregularity in that respiratory pattern will destabalize his abilities with Hamon. Exhaustion, or damage to his respiratory system of any kind, can be devestating as they would strip him of all his Advantages granted by Ripple Breathing.

Where Am I?<Minor>: Being from the late 1800's, just before the turn of the century, Jonathan's scientific knowledge is somewhat limited, even if impressive in his own time. This can be used against him in certain ways, such as with Dio Brando's Space Ripper Stingy Eyes. Without complete understanding of modern medicine and science, Jonathan is susceptible to more advanced strategies that incorporate Modern Technology or Modern Physics.
