Sherry Polnareff

"Oh, how nice! I've been meaning to get a new umbrella. Thank you, big brother."

- Sherry Polnareff to her brother

Sherry Polnareff (シェリー・ポルナレフ) is a tertiary character in the third part of JoJo's Bizarre Adventure, Stardust Crusaders. She is the younger sister of Jean Pierre Polnareff and was killed by J. Geil in 1985, three years prior to the story. Polnareff temporarily allies himself with DIO in order to find the man who killed her and get his revenge.

Appearance
Sherry is a young girl with long dark curly hair and wears a sweater. In the anime, she also wears a scarf and skirt.

Personality
Although Sherry's personality is mostly unknown, the anime slightly expands on her by adding more flashbacks. She is shown to be caring and adores her older brother.

History
Sherry lives in a small village in France with her brother. In the anime, she is shown as a child happily running into Polnareff's arms. She cheerfully asks him to lift her higher and then spin her around.

At some point when she and Polnareff are young, she feeds Polnareff's tropical fish to their cat and he becomes extremely angry with her, saying he hates her.

One day, Sherry is headed to school and Polnareff gives her a new umbrella. Sherry thanks him for the gift and says she'll be back soon. That evening, while on her way home with her friend, they are confronted by a man with two right hands. The man suddenly slashes the chest of Sherry's friend before raping and murdering Sherry. Her classmate manages to escape alive, although nobody in the village believes her story aside from Polnareff, who figures the man must be a Stand user like him.

Sherry's brother manages to avenge her by battling and ultimately killing J. Geil.

Later, Polnareff asks Judgement to revive her after the Stand offers to grant him a wish. Instead, the Stand manifests a that looks and sounds exactly like her, including having her memories. She suddenly attacks Polnareff when he lets his guard down and gets close enough. The figure is ultimately destroyed when Judgement throws it at Magician's Red as a diversionary tactic. In the anime, however, the Sherry clone is still alive. Polnareff catches the figure, and, accepting the death of his sister, impales the clay figure, killing it for good.
