Bruno Bucciarati

Personality:   Bruno Bucciarati is a 20 year old with a hard childhood, something that fated him to join the Italian Mafia group 'Passione' at a very young age, quickly gaining the trust of many due to his reputation of being a reliable, strong willed man who keeps a soft spot for vulnerable, innocent natured people. Bruno Bucciarati has always had a deeply nurturing personality. When Bucciarati's parents divorced, he stayed with his father because he knew that his father would be the most broken up if he was left to his own, even though his mother would have brought him to a nicer town with a good school and many kids his age. Bucciarati worked the boat tour company with his father in italy, making most of their money by giving people boat rides to islands. However, this profession got Bucciarati's father caught up in a drug deal, where he was shot and nearly killed. Bucciarati kept his father safe while he was healing from the attack, and in the process killed the two men that got his father hurt in the first place, when they came to finish the job off Bucciarati killed them, he was 12 at the time. After that Bucciarati went to Passione; the mafia group, to secure protection for his father. Bucciarati's father later died when Bucciarati was 15, due to complications from the gun shot. After this, Bucciarati threw himself into the community around him, and used his position in the mafia to take care of the people in Napoli, the vulnerable and the frightened. He quickly climbed in his ranking due to his reputation as a credible and trust worthy man, one that stuck to his morals and made those around him better because of it. As he grew, he finally decided to start making a team of his own, mainly of people just like him, those who have been tested by life but deserve a second chance. These people being; Guido Mista (Age 18), Leone Abbacchio (age 21), Panacotta Fugo (Age 16), Narancia Ghirga (Age 17), and Giorno Giovanna (Age 15). Each of these people were deeply moved by Bucciarati, his love for people and his desire to see change in the world. They followed him not just because he was a capo, but because he was admirable, and in many cases, he reignited hope in these people's lives. Despite his obvious admirable qualities, Bucciarati is still part of the mafia, and with that comes a different side of him, a very serious man that will do what it takes to get the job done; he has killed, has done dangerous jobs, and has been known to punish those who counter the mafia as it is assigned to him. He has tortured people for information, and if asked to do so, will teach abusive fools and harmful drug addicts a forceful lesson if they overstep. Bucciarati's behavior is righteous, and his hatred for drugs is strong, as he's seen the way they exploit the weak, bring danger to good people, and ruin lives. He, however, is sympathetic for those who are drug users, victims to the product that plagues his world. Bucciarati, despite his loyalty to Passione, does not like the secret Boss of it, a man who has never been identified. Bucciarati found out not very long ago the mysterious boss has actually been cycling the drugs Bucciarati has been actively swearing against, profiting directly off the people Bucciarati is trying to protect. Bucciarati is willing to die for his cause, as it is something he lives for. He cares deeply for his team, his people. Bucciarati is a Stand User, a Stand being a physical manifestation of a person's soul and fighting spirit. Every stand user has a Stand entirely unique to them, as it heavily reflects the user's life experiences and their soul as a whole. Only other Stand users can see Stands, but not only stand users can be affected by the abilities and powers of a Stand. Bucciarati's Stand is called Sticky Fingers, named after the Rolling Stones Album. Bucciarati's Stand Sticky Fingers allows him to create zippers on any solid object or surface, including his own body parts, which he can zip open and close at his leisure. Sticky Fingers also demonstrates exceptional strength and defense in combat. Bucciarati is a remarkable fighter in a Stand fight; having mastered the versatile power of Sticky Fingers, he can easily use the environment to his advantage, restrain his enemies, swiftly evade incoming attacks, and attack from blind spots. His natural selflessness means that survival is not among his priorities, thus his actions will easily surprise his opponents. Bucciarati is able to know if someone is lying simply by looking at them, claiming that when a person lies their skin glistens due to sweating. He can also taste a person's sweat to distinguish them as a liar, claiming that the sweat of a liar tastes sweeter than normal Bucciarati is a man of above-average height with a slim build. He has black chin-length hair with straight-cut bangs covering his forehead. His hair is adorned with a braid going along the top of his head and a hair clip surmounted on each side of his bangs. His attire is composed of an all-white suit covered in small black spoon-like symbols, with an open chest similar to Giorno, and zippers in random places alluding to his Stand, Sticky Fingers. Underneath his jacket is a lace top, which is seemingly portrayed as a tattoo in the TV anime. His appearance seems to have stayed consistent since childhood with no particular differences outside his height and clothing. Bucciarati and his crew are often seen meeting at an old restaurant out of view of the sights in Napoli, as the owner does adore him and have respect for him, and allows him to have a private area of the restaurant as a gathering space for his team and those who need his assistance.
