Jodio is a 15-year-old boy. He has light skin and light-colored hair with long jagged bangs partially obscuring both of his eyes and an undercut at the back. His hair is asymmetrical, as the right side is braided with a star-shaped ornamental hair clip attached, and the left side is cut just below his eye. He wears a large "JO" shaped earring that hangs from his left ear. As a descendant of the [[Joestar Family#Joestar Family (Second Continuity)|Joestar family]], Jodio has the [[Star Birthmark]] on his left shoulder.<ref>{{Ch|TJL VolumeChapter 419}}, [[TJL Chapter 14|Chapter 14]] tailpiece</ref>

His outfit consists of a light short-sleeved shirt under dark hooded overalls with a winged heart emblem at the center of the chest. The emblem is marked by an hourglass symbol with both triangles split into a dark and a bright half, and the shirt has been shown to have the word "NOVEMBER" written on the front collar. The overalls bears a strong resemblance to a life preserver, having a belt fastened around the chest under the heart emblem, sporting rigid light-colored shoulder pads, and exposing most of Jodio's back. The overalls isare also fastened to the shirt by two buttons at the back of the waist. The overalls' pantlegs are split under the knee, giving them a similar appearance to bell-bottoms, both also studded in a vertical column besides the slit.
