=Dio Brando=

Growing Up in the Slums
Dio Brando was born and raised in an impoverished town. He and his family would often struggle from starvation, struggling to find money and food. His mother would often give away the little she had to those in need, such as children, the elderly, and sometimes animals. These acts of charity unfortunately would only result in mockery, as the residents of the town considered such actions to be foolish. Despite agreeing with them, Dio, being her son, could not stand people making fun of his mother; but whenever he would fight back, she would scold him, saying that he won't go to heaven relying on violence. To Dio she appeared to be obsessed with the concept of heaven, as she took every opportunity to remind him of it, which earned her a great deal of contempt from her son.

The young Dio Brando respected his father significantly more than his mother since it appeared to him that Dario's way of living was more honest and correct given their circumstances. Whenever Dario in his drunken frenzy would beat her, Dio saw it as a justifiable punishment for her foolishness. Whenever his father got drunk, Dio would try to be quiet and get away from him in an attempt to minimize the damage he received.

At one point Dio told his mother that her way of life was impractical and that heaven does not exist. She, looking somewhat upset, explained to him that he'll understand it when he gets older, claiming heaven exists and there is a way to get there, so one must live for the purpose of doing so.

His mother died abruptly. She was buried in a crude funeral by Dio and Dario who even at this time was drunk. Though he thought that his mother didn't go to heaven, he didn't feel sad as she escaped hell and could finally rest.

After his mother's death, Dario became even more cruel to Dio. He took any opportunity to abuse his son, he would beat him for misbehaving, for doing well, often seemingly for no reason at all. Dio began to realize that his mother was not beat for her foolishness, Dario was simply the kind of man who tyrannized the weak to affirm his own dominance. To escape the violance Dio began to work and gamble, making use of his mother's education, to buy liquor for Dario in hopes of him drinking himself unconscious. Overtime his father would hit him less and less as he seemingly prioritized alchohol over everything else.

Wanting more booze, Dario pawned off the dress of his deceased wife, in spite of the protests of his son. After this act Dio lost the little hope and respect he had for his father. Dio, who previously thought that he skillfully and cleverly survived, realized that this whole time he was exploited by Dario. From this point on Dio began planning his father's murder. Conveniently, Dario fell ill and became bedridden giving Dio an opportunity to discreetly kill him. He acquired a poison from a Chinese man from a nearby city and steadily fed it to his father disguising it as medicine.

Returning to the Surface
DIO recieved the Bow and Arrow from Enya which awakened his Stand, The World. Witnessing the immense power of his Stand further cemented his belief in heaven.

Writing the Diary
About four years after escaping from his coffin, DIO begins writing his diary. He begins with a recollection of his childhood and the origin of his idea of heaven. DIO states that when he first got exposed to it thanks to his mother he acted dismissive of it, but over the course of his life he adopted similar beliefs. DIO admits that despite his great power, he can not reach his goal on his own. To get to heaven he would need a friend he can trust, one without desire for power, hunger or for fame, or lust, one who holds God's laws in higher esteem than he does man's. The diary is being written for the purpose of recording information about heaven and imparting it to those who he can trust.

He meets a gambler named Daniel J. D'Arby who he intuitively understands to be a Stand user. DIO takes interest in him and wonders if he could be the trusted friend but quickly dismisses it since he doesn't think that a gambler can have a pure soul. In a later meeting, DIO recruits D'Arby and discovers his Stand, Osiris. Though he may not be the "yet-unfound friend", his ability could help DIO acquire 36 souls of sinners. DIO explains that the souls of those who have committed heinous acts have great power. He learned that 100 years ago, the more fiendish a criminal he found, the stronger a zombie they became. He mentions that, a few days prior, Kakyoin Noriaki stated his theory that the one who loses a conflict is the one that is evil. DIO is convinced of the opposite; the desire to be happy, to go to heaven that wicked people possess propels them to victory.
