{{nihongo|'''The Grateful Dead'''|ザ・グレイトフル・デッド|Za Gureitofuru Deddo}} is the [[Stand]] of [[Prosciutto]] featured in the fifth part of the ''[[JoJo's Bizarre Adventure]]'' series, ''[[Vento Aureo]]''.

It has the simple but deadly ability to rapidly age any living organism, with the rate of aging being proportional to the organism's body temperature.


==Appearance==
==Appearance==
[[File:The Grateful Dead (2).png|frameless|left|200px]]
The Grateful Dead is a humanoid torso covered with eyes. It has no mouth. It lacks legs but has large arms, and it walks on its hands, where each has four huge metal-like and segmented fingers evenly spaced around its circumference. Hanging from its waist, where its legs should be, are four segmented tentacles. The eyes all over its body give it the look of a yokai. Araki originally intended to draw the lower half of its body but changed his mind.<ref name="JOJOVELLER">''[[JOJOVELLER]]: STANDS - [[JOJOVELLER/Commentaries#Vento Aureo|JOJOVELLER Stand Guide]]''</ref>
The Grateful Dead appears as a humanoid torso with long arms, large hands, and numerous angled eyes of various sizes embedded all over its face and body. Its face in particular has three horizontal or diagonal eyes on each side, with one larger vertical eye on the center of its forehead, and two horizontal eyes on the back. There are four horizontal eyes on its chest and back, with several more on its arms. It was designed with these multiple eyes to make it resemble a {{W|yokai}}.<ref name="JOJOVELLER">{{JJV|The Grateful Dead}}</ref> Although it lacks a mouth, it has an oval-shaped protuberance extending from the center of its face to its chin. The anime adaptation also changes the shape of its fingers, being more claw-like in appearance.


There are screw holes in its shoulders, elbows, and wrists. Lacking a lower body, there are four segmented tentacles hanging from its waist instead. Rather than floating, it directly walks on the ground with its hands, with three huge metal-like segmented fingers evenly spaced around its circumference.
The Grateful Dead emits a light mist, but it is unknown if the mist is linked to its power.<ref name="C488" /> The anime adaptation seems to imply that the two are connected, as Pesci reacts with shock and fear when he sees it manifest.


The Grateful Dead constantly emits a light mist from its body when activating its ability.<ref name="C488">{{Ch|Chapter 488}}</ref>
In the digitally colored manga, The Grateful Dead is portrayed as purple, with yellow sclera on the eyes, and orange fingers. The Grateful Dead's appearance in the [[GioGio's Bizarre Adventure|PS2 game]] is mostly the same, but the Stand's mouthpiece is yellow.


===Color Schemes===
In the [[JoJo's Bizarre Adventure: Golden Wind|TV anime adaptation]], its body is ice blue, the metallic parts of its body are dark purple, and its eyes have lime green sclera with yellow pupils. The anime adaptation also changes the shape of its fingers, being more claw-like in appearance.

==Abilities==
==Abilities==
The Grateful Dead's greatest asset is its ability to forcefully age people over a large area, making it a terrifying power because of its potential for a massacre. However, the aging can be slowed, and while The Grateful Dead isn't weak, it isn't a match for other close range Stands like [[Sticky Fingers]].


===Accelerated Aging===
The Grateful Dead's greatest asset is its ability to forcefully age people over a large area, a terrifying power because of its potential for a massacre.
The Grateful Dead has the ability to cause organisms to age physically and mentally at an accelerated rate.<ref name="C488" /> There are two ways The Grateful Dead can deploy its power. The first mode is to spread the aging over a large area and indiscriminately attack friends and foes, which is dangerous for Prosciutto's companions.<ref name="C488" /> The second mode is to direct its power precisely by grabbing someone, in which case the aging is faster than one can react.<ref name="C491">{{Ch|Chapter 491}}</ref> The activation of this ability manifests itself as mist spreading from The Grateful Dead.


[[File:Grateful dead powa.gif|left|thumb|210x210px|Narancia becomes a sick old man]]
Thankfully the aging can be slowed, and while The Grateful Dead isn't weak, it isn't a match for other close range Stands like Sticky Fingers.
When under the effect of The Grateful Dead, people age rapidly with all the effects it implies: their skin develops wrinkles, their teeth begin to fall out, the tips of their limbs start to necrose, their bones and joints shrink, and their cognitive ability is reduced.<ref name="C488" /><ref name=":0">{{Ch|Chapter 489}}</ref> Infants would succumb to the effect of "aging", with their skin wrinkling and hair falling out, rather than merely growing into an adult quickly. Even fruits and flowers wither and dry up.<ref name="C488"/><ref>{{Ch|Chapter 492}}</ref>


Because the spirit is also aged by The Grateful Dead, enemy Stands are also weakened. Their power and stamina are sapped,<ref name="C491" /> and even a powerful close-range Stand like [[Sticky Fingers]] can become slower than the rather slow The Grateful Dead.<ref>{{Ch|Chapter 494}}</ref>
==== Accelerated Aging ====

[[Prosciutto]] is normally immune to The Grateful Dead and can stay young inside its range. However, he can freely toggle the aging on himself, notably fooling [[Mista]] into thinking he's a mere civilian.<ref name="C491"/>

==Creation and Development==
[[Hirohiko Araki|Araki]] originally intended to draw the lower half of its body but changed his mind, thinking it looked fine as it is and appears more unusual this way.<ref name="JOJOVELLER" /> The Grateful Dead represents how he chooses to design Stands based on their functionality. Since it doesn't have a physically-based ability and wouldn't need to punch, he removed the functionality of the Stand's hands by making them function as legs instead.<ref name="comickers">{{IN|Comickers (November 2001)}}</ref>

==Trivia==
*In ''[[Eyes of Heaven]]'', while under the effects of [[Prosciutto]]'s The Grateful Dead in the Naples Station stage, the icons for the characters visibly get older with wrinkles and white hair. However, [[vampire]] characters (like [[DIO]] and [[Vanilla Ice]]), the [[Pillar Men]], and [[Stroheim]] do not age.

“
What's the big deal, anyway? Every year, passenger planes crash all around the world. This won't be as brutal as those!
”

The Grateful Dead (ザ・グレイトフル・デッド, Za Gureitofuru Deddo) is the Stand of Prosciutto featured in the fifth part of the JoJo's Bizarre Adventure series, Vento Aureo.

It has the simple but deadly ability to rapidly age any living organism, with the rate of aging being proportional to the organism's body temperature.

Appearance

The Grateful Dead appears as a humanoid torso with long arms, large hands, and numerous angled eyes of various sizes embedded all over its face and body. Its face in particular has three horizontal or diagonal eyes on each side, with one larger vertical eye on the center of its forehead, and two horizontal eyes on the back. There are four horizontal eyes on its chest and back, with several more on its arms. It was designed with these multiple eyes to make it resemble a yokai.[2] Although it lacks a mouth, it has an oval-shaped protuberance extending from the center of its face to its chin. The anime adaptation also changes the shape of its fingers, being more claw-like in appearance.

There are screw holes in its shoulders, elbows, and wrists. Lacking a lower body, there are four segmented tentacles hanging from its waist instead. Rather than floating, it directly walks on the ground with its hands, with three huge metal-like segmented fingers evenly spaced around its circumference.

The Grateful Dead constantly emits a light mist from its body when activating its ability.[3]

Abilities

The Grateful Dead's greatest asset is its ability to forcefully age people over a large area, making it a terrifying power because of its potential for a massacre. However, the aging can be slowed, and while The Grateful Dead isn't weak, it isn't a match for other close range Stands like Sticky Fingers.

Accelerated Aging

The Grateful Dead has the ability to cause organisms to age physically and mentally at an accelerated rate.[3] There are two ways The Grateful Dead can deploy its power. The first mode is to spread the aging over a large area and indiscriminately attack friends and foes, which is dangerous for Prosciutto's companions.[3] The second mode is to direct its power precisely by grabbing someone, in which case the aging is faster than one can react.[4] The activation of this ability manifests itself as mist spreading from The Grateful Dead.

Narancia becomes a sick old man

When under the effect of The Grateful Dead, people age rapidly with all the effects it implies: their skin develops wrinkles, their teeth begin to fall out, the tips of their limbs start to necrose, their bones and joints shrink, and their cognitive ability is reduced.[3][5] Infants would succumb to the effect of "aging", with their skin wrinkling and hair falling out, rather than merely growing into an adult quickly. Even fruits and flowers wither and dry up.[3][6]

Because the spirit is also aged by The Grateful Dead, enemy Stands are also weakened. Their power and stamina are sapped,[4] and even a powerful close-range Stand like Sticky Fingers can become slower than the rather slow The Grateful Dead.[7]

Prosciutto is normally immune to The Grateful Dead and can stay young inside its range. However, he can freely toggle the aging on himself, notably fooling Mista into thinking he's a mere civilian.[4]

The rate at which people age is dependent on their body heat. The warmer one's body is, the faster they age. Because of minute differences between men and women's bodies, women also age more slowly.[5] Thus, things warming the body, like intense physical activity, will accelerate the aging[8] but exposure to cold, like ingesting ice, will counter and reverse The Grateful Dead's power immediately,[5] although both effects balance themselves and insufficient coldness will not have an effect.[8]

Creation and Development

Araki originally intended to draw the lower half of its body but changed his mind, thinking it looked fine as it is and appears more unusual this way.[2] The Grateful Dead represents how he chooses to design Stands based on their functionality. Since it doesn't have a physically-based ability and wouldn't need to punch, he removed the functionality of the Stand's hands by making them function as legs instead.[9]
