—Adams to Poco, Chapter 36: The Three from a Faraway Land, Part 1
Adams (アダムス, Adamusu) is a minor antagonist featured in the first part of JoJo's Bizarre Adventure, Phantom Blood.
Adams is a former human and villager from Windknight's Lot who becomes a Zombie created by Dio Brando. Pretending to still be human, he attempts to ambush Poco from behind with his long, stretchable tongue.
Appearance
As a human, Adams is an ordinary man of average height and a muscular build. He has short curly light hair with two thin bangs. He has a particularly long and wide nose. Adams wears a vest with pockets on both sides on top of a collared long sleeve shirt. He carries a messenger bag around his shoulder. Below, he wears a belt, thick pants, and long boots.
After becoming a zombie, Adams grows fangs and his tongue can grow in size to become abnormally long. He abandons his human appearance by bulking up his upper torso, growing more muscles and losing his shirt. His hair falls off and he becomes bald, with the top of his head up to his nose gaining a narrow, segmented protuberance with several small spikes attached.

Personality
Adams initially appears as a normal adult, lecturing Poco that a child like him shouldn't be out so late at night. He can be somewhat immature as he mimics cow horns with his fingers while teasing Poco that his sister will lock him in a barn.
However, he reveals his true nature as a disingenuous heartless zombie, who is particularly bloodthirsty to eat children. He attempts to be sly by tricking Poco and the Joestar group that the town is okay, only to try ambushing them from behind after they walk away. Despite his tongue being easily caught by Jonathan, he is overconfident about his abilities.[2]
Abilities
Zombie
As a zombie, Adams multiplies his physical strength. He can grow his muscles and is confident in his speed, assuming Jonathan would be unable to outpace him.[2]
Techniques
Tongue Manipulation
Adams can grow his tongue to abnormal lengths, stretching it long enough to grab his prey.
Head Twisting
Adams is capable of twisting his head 180 degrees.
History
On December 1, 1888, Dio Brando turns Adams into a zombie in Windknight's Lot. That night, he meets Poco, Jonathan, and Speedwagon while walking. Poco greets him but Adams scolds him for being out so late at night. After Poco asks how his sister and the town are doing, Adams imitates the horns of a cow with his fingers. He explains that Poco's sister is furious that Poco is out so late and will lock him in a barn when he returns home. Poco thanks Adams and the three head off toward Dio.
As they leave, Adams extends his tongue and twists his head 180 degrees. Excited to drink the blood of a child, he launches his tongue at Poco but it is easily grabbed by Jonathan before reaching Poco. Adams enlarges the muscles of his upper torso, tearing off his shirt and losing his hair to reveal that he is a zombie. Confident in his speed, he jumps above Jonathan, preparing to strike with his hands and mouth. Jonathan easily jumps out of the way and steps down on Adams' tongue. Jonathan infuses his foot with the Ripple and pulls Adams' tongue out. The Ripple melts Adams' face and he dies.
