If an amount of skin equal to the surface of Dio's head or greater is in direct sunlight, he takes 5 (2d4) radiant damage at the end of each of his turns, or every 6 seconds outside of initiative. Creatures attempting to reveal Dio may do so as the result of a successful shove attempt. Recovering himself requires an action. Additionally, Dio does not age or need to sleep, and he counts as one size larger for the sake of how much he can push, pull, or lift. Brainstorm.

If Dio loses any body parts, but they are still intact and within reach, he can spend 1 spirit point as a free action to reattach it. Endurance. When Dio is targeted by an area effect that lets him make a Constitution saving throw to take only half damage, he instead takes no damage if he succeeds on the saving throw, and only half damage if he fails the save.

By the time Jonathan Joestar and his master William Zeppeli, alongside Speedwagon, arrived in Windknight's Lot, Dio had already consumed as many lives as a normal person would have slices of bread in their life. Sending his two strongest minions against the two in hopes of not needing to fight his own brother again, he realized his own weakness when a stronger Jonathan confronted him on his own front door alongside three new allies. Fully losing his compassion, he quickly dealt with Dire and set his sights on Jonathan, allowing his minions to hold off the other intruders. After an arduous battle, Dio was fatally struck in the chest with a Scarlet Overdrive, sending him careening off the balcony of his highest tower, though he was able to quickly cut off his own head, stopping the Hamon from spreading to his head and killing him. Without a body, he was carried by Wang Chan, his first minion, as they traced Jonathan's whereabouts, ambushing him on a ship destined for the Americas where he was supposed to start his honeymoon. While he was able to kill Jonathan, the battle sank the ship and killed his zombies, though not even this would spell the end for Dio. |
