Wang Chan (ワンチュン Wan Chun) is a minor antagonist featured in Part I: Phantom Blood.
Personality
As a human, Wang Chan has shown a nasty and greedy personality, selling a poison to Dio Brando without any regard for its use and heading back to the Joestar mansion to salvage for treasures and antiques. Upon becoming a vampire, however, he becomes entirely devoted to Dio's wishes.
Synopsis
Phantom Blood
Originally only known as the "Oriental Man", he owned a curiosity shop on Ogre Street. Wang Chang sold Dio the poison which Dio used in his murder of Dario Brando and his attempted murder of George Joestar, although Wang was not concerned with what the poison was to be used for. He told Dio, without much, if any, intent to provoke him, of a man in his own land who had a similar birthmark to Dio's who had a harsh life, but in the end lived to be over 183.
Sometime after, he was was captured by Jonathan Joestar and taken to the the Joestar Manor. When he is used in an attempt to force Dio to go with the police, he again mentions his fortune telling, saying that Dio is far too lucky to fully have to give up this early. Dio uses George's blood to become a vampire, taking Wang Chan as his subordinate when the latter goes to search the Joestar manor for valuables.
Wang Chan then takes care of Dio while he is recovering from his injuries, growing great loyalty to him. He attacks Jonathan during his training, but is defeated and escapes, telling Dio about the ripple. When the group of heroes reach Dio's mansion Wang Chan remains hidden, being the only zombie to survive the battle. He finds Dio's head and guards it, lamenting that Dio didn't have a new body.
Dio trusts him enough to be responsible for his head and implanting it onto Jonathan's body. This did not go according to plan, however as Jonathan use the last of his strength to crush Wang Chan's head and sent a ripple to take control of his body, making him sink the ship full of zombies by grinding his body into the machinery.
Abilities
As a human Wang Chan was a expert on poisons and a fortune teller. He succesfully predicted that Dio would have great luck in his life, wish would be true in his many near-death survivals. After Dio beheaded himself he gave Wang Chan the task to take care of his head. When battling together, Dio would order Wang Chan on how to battle, including where to point Dio's vision so he could hit their opponents with the Space Ripper Stingy Eyes.
Claws: In battle Wang Chan choose to weild a glove with giant-sized claws. This way he would be able to increase his power and attack range, but this proved to be unsuccesful against Jonathan's Zoom Punch, which also increased his range.
