[Stand User: Lloyd Fly (AU of Gray Fly) Backstory: Lloyd is an elderly pirate, and pretty physically weak. He's proficient with his rapier, but otherwise lingers in his rowboat a few miles out from Morioh Harbour, secretly unleashing his Stand on passing merchant or pirate ships and crippling them from the inside, whilst from a relatively safe distance. He gained his Stand fairly late into his pirating career, after he was shipwrecked on a remote tropical island. His crew was killed in the crash yet he survived, and he eventually resorted to eating mouldy and fly-infested fruit to continue living. Unbeknownst to him, that fruit was infected with the Stand Disease, and he gained his Stand, Mantis Lords. Later, he escaped the island, but never fully regained his past status as a pirate, and now lingers around as a pitiful thief and nuisance, barely a penny to his name. Stand: Mantis Lords Stand Type: Colony Stand Appearance: An airborne swarm of grey and alien looking insects, appearing like a cross between locust, mantis and rhinoceros beetles. Ability: Mantis Lords can fit through very small gaps and has a range of 10 metres, so can enter ships easily. It flies very fast, and can devour food and wood in seconds, making it a menace to anybody heading out on a voyage or trading goods. It also can swarm a person and cover them in bug bites, though the swarm is only large enough to do this to one person at a time.]
*bro just call them the Beetles and eschew the ‘a’*
[That's a good idea actually lmao, mind if I yoink it?]
Jollini leans forwards and says 'Hey, if the government wants it, they're gonna need to find it, just like us. Whitesnake left it to the pirates anyway, so it's ours for the taking, no matter what some official might say.'
“I’m no pirate. Not a person of legality, necessarily, but not a pirate nonetheless.”
Jollini smirks and says 'Sure, but I'll tell you this, once you've been out on the seas with us for a few months, you'll be more of a pirate than anyone else. It ain't a bad thing to be, it's just choosing to live a life of freedom, free from governmental control and all those laws, and freedom isn't bad, it's just the people in control that make it seem like it is.'
[My lawyer advises me to say that I do not agree or endorse the claims of Jollini Joestar in the slightest. Please do not do crimes lmao]
*nope. also what if i already did crimes*
“Hm… Public attitudes are funny things, aren’t they? Demonization and intolerance shift so many opinions just because people seem to think that if this is what the people in charge believe, it’s safer to fall into acceptable frames of mind and belief. It’s all fear that keeps us in societal roles.”
Jollini nods and smiles like he understands what's being said, but he was lost at 'attitudes', too many big words. He just says 'Yeah...it's hilarious...' and hopes that it's the right response.
“Prejudice is hilarious to you?”

I'll lay a white rose on the cold earth, knowing it that it has not claimed your soul.
Jollini's eyes widen and he goes 'Hmm? Oh no, prejudice is awful, I was saying how hilarious it is that it...umm...still exists!' He leans backwards onto a crate and untenses his muscles. This is the first time in a long while he's actually had to focus in a face-to-face conversation, he's so used to Drunken Sailor doing it all for him.

“You don’t talk to… people much, do you.” He says, arching an eyebrow.

Yo, I’m Himy, He/Him. I enjoy reading books, understanding why and how things work, anime/manga, video games and obviously, TTRPGS. I’m not the sharpest tool in the shed, but I like to think Im close. I’m good at trivia, history and science
I struggle with empathy. If you’re not sure what I mean by that, it basically means it’s hard for me to understand the mental state of others and respond with the right emotions

Jollini slumps forward and sighs 'No, and it's exhausting.' He then gets back up and grins 'Doesn't mean I'm a bad captain though, I can give the clearest and most concise orders you'll ever hear!'
Ricardo is waiting for the captain to tell him what to do. He’s just lying down on the deck of the ship, looking at the sky, the trinket on his necklace giving a soft glow.

*Yeah someone made a Jojos dnd website. I don’t want to use those though cause it kinda restricts things and we would have to relearn some of the rules.*
