Vampires are known for their battle cry {{Nihongo|"WRY"|ウリイ|Uri}} and numerous superhuman traits. Their most obvious abilities are their raw strength, regeneration, blood-sucking tentacles at their fingers and near-immortality. On top of that, many vampires are capable of manipulating their bodies in creative and unique ways. Some as skilled as [[Dio Brando|Dio]] have created their own unique abilities.

|Desc = Vampires are exceptionally strong beings. One weakened vampire couldcan destroy a brick wall with one punch; DioDIO himself couldcan lift a road roller and jump high in the air with it. A measurement of [[Straizo]]'s strength setsets his finger pressure as 325 kg/cm^2..

|Desc = Vampires are very agile, their speed having beenbeing likened to that of a cheetah by [[Robert E. O. Speedwagon|Speedwagon]]. They are able to jump several meters up ininto the air: for example, a weakened Straizo couldis able to jump up to {{Cvt|4.22 meters|m|ft}} in the air. Other demonstrations of agility include casually hanging from a ceiling and leaping great distances.

|Desc = Vampires consume the blood of living creatures to sustain themselves. Unlike traditional vampires, they suck their victim's blood with their hands, digging the fingers directly inside the target to suck their blood. Blood consumption will strengthenstrengthens a vampire, and healheals him if he washas previously weakenedsustained beforedamage. In a weakened state, a vampire will instinctively crave blood and may attack any victim to regenerate.

|Desc = Vampires can fully manipulate their own bodies, making a seemingly limitless number of special techniques possible. [[Wired Beck]], for example, hadhas the ability to form numerous spikes all over his body from his body hair; [[Nukesaku]] displayeddisplays the ability to form a second face on the back of his head with female features to deceive his opponents.

|Desc = A vampire's body is able to live even after having vital body parts amputated, as it is able to regenerate or reattach its own body parts. Vampires can also control their detached body parts. For example, Dio is able to reattach himself after being sliced in half by [[Jonathan Joestar|Jonathan]], and [[Straizo]] regenerates after exploding into several pieces from grenades. However, this ability is significantly hindered should the vampire's brain be destroyed or heavily damaged, leaving an opening themfor upthem to be killed through other means.<ref>{{Ch|Chapter 23}}</ref><ref>{{Ch|Chapter 259}}</ref><ref>{{Ch|Chapter 264}}</ref>

|Desc = As part of their immortality, a vampire's body will forfeitforfeits natural decay, essentially preventing the host from dying of old age. Those transformed at a younger age will naturally preserve their looks, while those who are older will rejuvenate their bodies, taking on the appearance of someone in their 20s.<ref>[[JoJo 6251]], p.105</ref> This characteristic allows DIO to retain his youth and survive at the bottom of the ocean for a century.

|User = [[Dio BrandoDIO]]

|Desc = As demonstrated by DioDIO when placinghe places his ear to the ground to listen for [[Jotaro Kujo|Jotaro]]'s heartbeat or for passing vehicles, vampires appear to have greatly heightened senses.<ref>{{Ch|Chapter 260}}</ref>

|Desc = Vampires are capable of creating [[zombie]]s from either living beings or deceased corpses by injecting them with a vampiric extract. Though zombies are also strong creatures, they are less powerful than their vampiric creator and will often obey them without question. In Stardust Crusaders, DioDIO perfected this technique, injecting others with his blood to sire other vampires.

|Desc = Vampires are able to graft parts of different organisms together. Dio displays this ability by creating [[MinorUnnamed Characters#Chimera Zombies|animal-human hybrid zombies]] as pets, ultimately using it to graft his disembodied head on Jonathan's body.

|Desc = Dio is able to hypnotize individuals into doing his bidding. Notvia muchunknown ismeans. known about this ability, besides that itIt may possibly be nullified by the Ripple energy, as [[Poco]]'s hypnosis worewears off afterwhen beinghe is hit by [[Jonathan Joestar|Jonathan]]'s Overdrive.

|Desc = Vampires are able to expel pressurized body fluid from their eyes. Though the resulting jets of fluid are strong enough to cut cleanly through a stone column, theyRipple energy can be redirectedused byto redirect them with curved surfaces such as wine glasses if infused with the Ripple.

|User = [[Dio Brando|DIO]]

|Debut = {{Ch|Chapter 120}}

|Desc = A vampire can create flesh buds from their own cells and insert them into the brains of living beings, subtly making them more susceptible to the vampire's influence. Over the course of several years, the flesh bud gradually devours its host's brain; if the vampire who created the flesh bud dies, the flesh bud will fusefuses with the host on a cellular level, mutating them beyond recognition.<ref>{{Ch|Chapter 282}}</ref> If someone tries to remove the flesh bud, it will growgrows tentacles in an attempt to kill both the host and the one trying to remove it. Once created by a vampire, the flesh bud can be inserted and triggered by anyone able to manipulate life at a cellular level. When not attached to its host, similarly to a vampire, flesh buds are weak to sunlight<ref>{{Ch|Chapter 161}}</ref> and the Ripple.<ref>{{Ch|Chapter 120}}</ref>

|Desc = The vampire [[Straizo]], having previously learned the art of the Ripple as a human, wasis able to use the breathing technique after turning into a vampire. Doing so, however, wasis an act of suicide, as the Ripple destroyeddestroys his own body.

|User = [[Dio Brando|DIO]], [[Vanilla Ice]]

|Desc = Like humans, vampires with unusually strong spiritual power can develop and control Stands, a physical manifestation of the user's spirit. As wasindicated the case withby [[The World]]'s timestop gradually lengthening as DIO's neck wound healedheals, the limitations of a vampire's Stand can be lessened or nullified over time.
