Sa peau est en pierre !! C'est un humain qui peut vivre malgré sa transformation en pierre !!
—Josuke Higashikata sur Yotsuyu Yagiyama, JJL Chapter 30

Les Hommes-rocher (岩人間, Iwa-Ningen) sont une espèce de mystérieuses créatures et servant d'antagonistes principaux dans JoJolion.

Il existe aussi des Animaux-rocher (岩動物, Iwa-Dōbutsu) et des Insectes-rocher (岩昆虫, Iwa-Konchū).

Description

Le terme "Homme-rocher" décrit les créatures qui ont évolué pour être chimiquement basée sur le silicium élément principal, par contraste aux organismes basés sur le carbone. Dans leur forme pétrifiée, la plupart des activités biologiques s'arrêtent et ils sont capables de supporter des températures assez élevées mais aussi assez basses, la sécheresse et autres conditions de vie difficiles.

L'une des caractéristiques déterminantes d'un Homme-rocher est qu'il s'agit d'organismes à base de silicium contrairement aux humains qui sont des organismes à base de carbone.

Iwasuke, un chien d'origine inconnue, semble avoir des capacités similaires aux Hommes-rocher et est décrit comme un Chien-rocher, tandis que Doremifasolati Do est décrit comme un Animal-Rocher de compagnie.

Hibernation

Les Hommes-rochers sont sujet à des besoins aléatoires d'hiberner, à des intervalles différents selon l'individu, et l'hibernation peut durer de 30 à 90 jours. Après le réveil, un Rock Human ne dormira plus pendant au moins deux mois. Pendant l'hibernation, la respiration normale est interrompue, mais les Hommes-rocher doivent toujours respirer et donc utilisent la respiration cutanée, avec un transfer d'oxygène travers les fissures trouvées sur leur couche externe. Si nécessaire, ils peuvent rester en hibernation pendant 25 ans et endurer des températures aussi élevées que 950 °C et aussi basses que -240°C. Leur chaleur corporelle, ainsi que leur odeur, disparaissent pendant qu'ils hibernent, provoquant la croissance de divers champignons, mousses et même perles sur leur corps.

Les Hommes-rocher durcissent en pierre grâce à un système cellulaire complexe qui stocke l'humidité à l'intérieur de chaque cellule et est protégé par des parois cellulaires riches en carbone. Tout objet transporté par un Homme-rocher lorsqu'il hiberne sera recouvert d'une membrane dure qui se déchire comme une croûte au réveil.

When hibernating, Rock Humans will prefer places such as shrine grounds, parks with statues, gardens of expensive houses, and underneath maple trees with squirrels in them. They will generally avoid sleeping in areas that were previously flooded, or have high chances of being rained on by tree sap or bird poop.[1]

Biology

The "growth cycle" of a Rock Human, from sentient formation to varying sleeping poses as they grow.

There are both male and female Rock Humans who procreate and give birth much like humans. Visually, there are no differences between them and humans, though their skin upon awakening appears slightly moist, damp and erotic. However, they biologically cannot have children with humans.

Rock Humans do not grow gradually, but "molt" their whole bodies at once every 6 years. This transformation occurs during their sleep, and for some unknown reason, the pose they make when asleep will change each time. It is believed that Rock Humans can live for 240 years. When a Rock Human dies, it leaves no corpse, as it crumbles away into rocks.[1]

Behavior

Rock Humans eat plants, fruits, nuts, meat, fish, and all other forms of life. They enjoy honey, and all are allergic to mangoes.

They hold a certain reverence for the power found within the Earth and nature. Because they are fundamentally able to live through weather changes, they require no assets such as a house or land.

However, they are unable to safely coexist or mutually understand human society. Because their natural environment is slowly being taken over by human development, some have taken the form of "parasites" by falsely entering the family registry system to maintain property and assets. However, due to their extensive hibernation, Rock Humans cannot go to school or hold regular jobs, instead working in occupations that allow irregular business hours. Rock Humans also rarely fall in love with normal humans, but if they do, there's a 97.5% chance it will end in disaster. The breakups between humans and Rock Humans are said to end in someone's murder.[1]

Abilities and Powers

Rock Skin: Presumably separate from hibernation, each Rock Man has the ability to shift their outer appearance from a normal human into a rock-like state and vice versa at will. In their rock form, they are able to camouflage into their surroundings, and improve their durability to some extent. The ability to stay human requires some type of focus however, as Aisho describes his rock form as something he was born with, but unable to control at a younger age.[2] Yotsuyu, who is presumably more experienced in controlling it, is able to revert to human, rock, and a hybrid where he can still move despite having a rock-like appearance.[3]

Stands: 95% of Rock Humans possess Stands. The reason for the high proportion of Stand users in their population is unknown.

Members

Although not much is known about the Rock Humans' society at large, it can be inferred that their typical behavior involves assimilating into human society (to the best of their ability) while maintaining secret contact with small groups of other Rock Humans, two of which serve as collective antagonists of JoJolion.

Locacaca Organization

Led by Satoru Akefu, this group of Rock Humans prioritize gaining the power of the New Locacaca's equivalent exchange, and to secretly obtain and sell Locacaca fruits for wealth.

Smuggling Cartel

Within the organization is a small faction led by Tamaki Damo, dedicated to smuggling Locacaca plants overseas via members sneaking onto cargo vessels and hibernating for the duration of the voyage. The fruits would then be harvested and sold to customers in need of their equivalent exchange property at a lofty price. Working beneath Damo were Yotsuyu Yagiyama, Aisho Dainenjiyama, and the A. Phex Brothers. Jobin Higashikata served as a business partner of the organization, using his family's business to cover up the Locacaca trade. Aside from Jobin, all of the cartel members were killed by Josuke Higashikata and his allies.

Researchers

The researchers of the Locacaca fruit are comprised of four Rock Humans working as doctors at TG University Hospital, including the mastermind Satoru. They wish to secure the New Locacaca for the benefit of the Rock Human race. Though the specific details of their goals are currently unknown, Urban Guerrilla believes that it could be used to bring about a massive change that favors Rock Humans over humanity, stating that it will "bring a whole new world to [them]".

Trivia

  • The concept of the people turning into rock when hibernating is similar to the Pillar Men in Battle Tendency.
  • Although their motives are unclear, at this point in the manga the "Rock Humans" are the collective antagonists of JoJolion.
  • Spikes or bulbs (often similar to the ones of the Locacaca fruit) are a recurring design element delegated to the Rock Humans and their associates.
    • Jobin is currently the only non-Rock Human in JoJolion to feature this design motif.
