![]() This proved somewhat true, as with only one notable exception ( Giorno Giovanna), did his kin exemplify the same kind of wicked nature and lust for power he did. One of his main standards for the women he sought were those with atrocious personalities, selfish interests, and with the worst of hearts to father his children, believing that his children would be tempered with such a miserable upbringing as to breed "strong warrior souls" like himself as with his father Dario. Possibly through his twisted nature in life, Dio's family values primarily saw him value pitting his own offspring through the same crucible of hatred and abuse he was put through in childhood. On the contrary, those able to see through his facade of charisma and allure by his own dark ambitions and power, such as Joseph Joestar, have likened him akin to a cult leader or even in comparison to historic tyrants and dictators like Hitler. He is also a talented actor, shown as he tricked Jonathan Joestar into letting him go. He has used his innate charisma to gather many servants, mainly Stand Users. On the contrary, Dio never tolerated that someone could stand up to him or equal him in power, and was enraged and deeply disturbed at the thought several times.ĭio can be extremely charming when he wants to be, with many characters remarking him to be very charismatic and fascinating. Dio enjoys being in a position of power and has repeatedly stated how great he felt being in a dominating position no matter what it cost, be it selling his humanity for unholy and forbidden power as a member of the undead, or to gain powers that could eventually have him reshape the world as according to his image and worship him as a god. Using either manipulation, seduction, or plain violence, Dio constantly sought to become more and more powerful, and to 'attain heaven'. To do so, Dio used anything or anyone that he could in order to further his goals, disregarding any kind of morality that would restrain the range of actions available to him. Abused by his father, being underprivileged and having lived in the most miserable living conditions, Dio set for himself the goal of becoming the richest, then the most powerful being on Earth. He also wears a necklace covering his neck scar and heart motifs above his feet and on his pant legs, but he quickly stopped sporting them after his first stairway confrontation with Polnareff.ĭio is consistently manipulative and violently domineering, and has repeatedly shown a lack of conscience and empathy a classic case of a psychopath and a sociopath.ĭIO is ecstatic when he sees his power growing furtherĭio's most recognizable characteristics are his boundless ambition and his lust of power. ![]() ![]() He has long golden hair, and has been described as attractive by some characters, such as Straizo and Enrico Pucci. In most depictions of DIO, his outfit is tinted orange or yellow.ĭio has an extremely muscular build, most probably owing to his vampiric nature and extensive training. This is his form during the beginning of the DIO's World story arc. His face is now in full-view, and on his head is a heart-shaped circlet to match his knee guards.
