He was an abusive father and entered [[DIO]]'s service, but the [[Vampire|vampire's]]'s death causes the [[Vampire#Flesh Buds|seed in his brain]] to turn him into a near mindless monster with regenerative powers. He is kept prisoner in the attic of the Nijimura Brothers' home while [[Keicho Nijimura]] seeks a [[Stand]] user that can kill him for good.

Nijimura Sr. is a rotund creature with blistered green skin, mismatched eyes, no ears, a squished nose, and puffy lips resembling a beak. He has a mohawk-like hairstyle with small bald patches in between. He wears a sleeveless shirt along with shorts. The back of his shirt is decorated with a print of three soda bottles and four stars. Under imprisonment by [[Keicho Nijimura]], Father Nijimura wore a collar on his neck with a very long chain, which could be used to restrain him.

During 1989, Japan had been experiencing an economic down turn, and along with his wife passing away two years prior, left Mr. Nijimura's family in a harsh struggle. Mr. Nijimura would abuse his two sons, mercilessly and without provocation.

Two years later, Mr. Nijimura met [[Dio Brando|DIO]] who seemingly grew an interest in his potential. Mr. Nijimura started to receive letters with money and jewels for his work. He would also develop a stand through the power of the [[Bow and Arrow]]. Keicho claims that his father effectively sold his 'heart' to DIO.
