Ghiaccio
Ghiaccio (ギアッチョ, Giatcho) is a minor antagonist from Part V: Vento Aureo and a member of La Squadra di Esecuzione.
Personality
Ghiaccio is quite confident and arrogant. He believes his stand makes him invincible, and he lords it over Giorno and Mista in their fight. He also seems to have a certain level of friendship with Melone and great loyalty to the execution squad (and by extension, Risotto Nero).
He has a strange fixation with language as he expresses annoyance at the confusing wording of metaphors and over the fact the names of cities are adapted when using other languages.
Synopsis
Ghiaccio first appears on top of the car Giorno and Mista are in, using his stand to freeze the air to try and kill the both of them. He uses his stands powers without actually drawing it out, forming a shield of ice around his body as the car swerves. He soon gets serious when he is forced off the car, and dons his armor-like stand and pursues them using the stand's ice skates. His actions force Giorno to drive the car off the road and into the ocean, where he begins to use his stand to freeze the water. His attacks chase them both, until Guido uses the ice to try and ski to the land with frozen grass made by Giorno.
Ghiaccio instantly melts all his ice, causing Mista to fall just short of the shore. Attacked by Ghiaccio's ice, Mista convinces himself that Ghiaccio's stand cannot be invincible, and dives underwater to see. It is there that his weakness, the air hole in the back of his neck, is revealed.
Once they both get to land, Mista's work proves fruitless, as Ghiaccio displays his power to freeze air until it erupts, making his hole bullet proof. He begins to look for, and soon finds The Boss' secret disk, and declares victory.
However, after a struggle, he is gradually forced backwards until he hits a splintered tree that pierces his hole and neck. Freezing his own blood, he stays alive momentarily, until Gold Experience pushes him in fully, impaling his neck and killing him.
In Video-Games
Giogio's Bizarre Adventure: Golden Whirlwind (PS2 Game)
Ghiaccio appears as the enemy faced on chapters 10 and 11. In both battles you face him playing as Mista. During chapter 10, Ghiaccio will be chasing the car that Giorno are driving, and the player controls Mista on the car's top. During this match the player needs to survive during 2 minutes, as Ghiaccio comes closer tying to attack the car.
However it's during chapter 11 you truly face Ghiaccio. During the match, Ghiaccio will keep skating along the stage and trying to attack his opponent with impulse attacks as he uses White Album. The player needs to attack Ghiaccio's from his back, since it's his weak point. Ghaccio's secondary attack it's frozing the ground on two different ways, the first one he keeps freezing the floor until it reaches the player (opening his weak point) and the second one makes him freezing the floor on a Snowflake form (a dangerous close attack). Ghiaccio's can also use his Ice barrier to protect himself from any projectile attack and can also trap the Sex Pistols if Mista shoots him during this period.
Ghiaccio's second battle is available on ANOTHER STORY MODE, as the player can choose between Giorno, Narancia, Polnareff or Fugo. Ghiaccio's appareance without his armor stand appears only if the player beat him under the right circustances (shooting him when he's near the pole, recreating his death on the original storyline) or during the Character Mode Viewer.

Ghiaccio appears as an explanatory character in one of the game's mode, JOJO DICTIONARY MODE MENU, as he guides the player to choose between Trivia, Franchise's Story or Character's Profiles, always saying some of his catche phrases.
