Char Summary: Gyro Zeppeli is the cocky Neapolitan executioner-surgeon racing the 1890 Steel Ball Run to free a condemned boy named Marco. Master of the Zeppeli Spin, he hurls returning Steel Balls that can heal or wreck a body, teaches Johnny Joestar between insults, and hides a stubborn sense of honor under gold grills and mozzarella songs. (Funfact: Gyro's birth name is Julius Caesar Zeppeli — a secret he shares only carefully — and his grills read GO! GO! ZEPPELI.)
