Dot Han
Dot Han (ドット・ハーン, Dotto Hān) is a tertiary character featured in the seventh part of the JoJo's Bizarre Adventure series, Steel Ball Run.
A Far‑Eastern equestrian master and descendant of Genghis Khan, he enters the Steel Ball Run as one of the race's early favorites.

Dot Han is a stocky, muscular man with small irises. Most of his scalp is shaved, aside from a narrow mohawk at the front and a ponytail. He wears a dark strap‑like band that wraps low across his forehead and temples. The band is segmented with diagonal cut‑outs, letting the stubbled sides of his scalp show through. Dot Han wears a loose, light-colored riding jacket, cargo trousers, and riding shoes.

Steel Ball Run
Before the Steel Ball Run race begins, Dot Han is considered to be one of the race's champion candidates alongside Mountain Tim, Urmd Avdul, and Diego Brando.[2] Dot Han performs steadily throughout the race, finishing in 16th place in the first stage, and inside the top ten for Stages 2, 3, and 4. During the fifth stage, he intersects with Sandman, who turns him and his horse into a trap using In a Silent Way to store a sound inside him. He charges at Gyro Zeppeli and Johnny Joestar while they rest beside a barn. Gyro's Steel Ball and Johnny's nail shots disintegrate on contact with his body, forcing the pair to evade. Dot Han begs them for help but then crashes into the barn, obliterating him and his horse.[3]
Race Stats
Dot Han died during the 5th STAGE of the race, leaving him with a total of 71 points.
