Nicholas Joestar (ニコラス・ジョースター, Nikorasu Jōsutā) est un personnage tertiaire posthume figurant dans la septième partie de JoJo's Bizarre Adventure, Steel Ball Run.
Nicholas était le grand frère de Johnny Joestar de cinq ans son ainé, ainsi que le fils de George Joestar II. Nicholas était un jockey qui est tragiquement mort dans un accident d'équitation.
Nicholas Joestar était un jeune homme maigre qui avait une coupe de cheveux régulière avec des mèches entrelacées sur le dessus de la tête, ressemblant à une crête.
Nicholas Joestar était un grand frère gentil et sympathique envers son petit frère Johnny.
Il était complice avec lui, ayant bien voulu l'aider à protéger une souris de compagnie que Johnny avait trouvée, concoctant un plan pour tromper son père avec le corps d'une autre souris tandis que Johnny relâcherait la souris dans les bois. Il semble avoir été un bon élève, car il dit que ses professeurs lui faisaient confiance.[1]
Nicholas is a horseback riding prodigy, who his father considered to be far superior to both Johnny Joestar and Dio.[1]
Nicholas is capable of controlling large horses like his own perfectly, no different than when he is riding any other horse.
Nicholas is never a fraction of a second late. Whether Johnny tells him to run 200 meters in 17 seconds, or the next 200 meters in 23 seconds, he'll always finish exactly in that time. He was born with this ability, unlike his father.
When young Johnny once took his pet mouse Danny to secretly feed it under the table during dinner, his father, upon discovering it, ordered the child to drown the animal himself as punishment. Heartbroken, Johnny was unable to bring himself to do the deed, and followed Nicholas' suggestion to set Danny free into the woods instead.
Years later, Nicholas grew into a promising jockey-to-be. One day while practicing for his next race, Nicholas's horse Black Rose stumbled from something on the ground, which cost him his life. Diego claimed a white mouse was the cause of the accident – a mouse who Johnny believed to be Danny. Seven years later, it was Johnny who rose to fame as a racing prodigy. However, his father still did not acknowledge him and his feats, even asking God "why He had taken Nicholas and not Johnny".
During the fight with Axl RO, Nicholas and Danny were seen once more, manifested from Johnny's guilt over freeing Danny and accidentally leading to Nicholas' death.
