Каменные Люди
Каменные Люди (岩人間, Iwa-Ningen, Rock Humans) являются подвидом Каменных Организмов, представленные как основная злодейская сила в восьмой части франшизы JoJo's Bizarre Adventure, JoJolion
Сводка
Каменные Люди это организмы, произошедшие из кремния как элемента, из которого они в основном состоят. Жизнь на основе кремния появилась в то же время что и жизнь на основе углерода. Оба вида организмов эволюционировали в одно время, хотя клеток на основе кремния было меньше по числу.

Биология
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. Male humans and female Rock Humans can interbreed, but there are no examples of the vice versa.[1]
Rock Human mothers give birth in the spring and summer seasons and carry the fetus for six months. On average, newborn babies have a length of 28 millimeters and weigh 15 grams, keeping that form for seventeen years.[1] 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.[2]
Спячка
Sleep hits suddenly at different times depending on the individual and will last anywhere from 30 to 90 days but after waking up, a Rock Human won't sleep again for at least two months. While hibernating, breathing is halted, though a small amount of skin respiration is required through the cracks found on their outer layer. If necessary, they can stay in hibernation for 25 years and sustain temperatures as high as 950 °C and as low as -240 °C. Their body heat, as well as scent, disappear while dormant causing various fungi, moss and even pearls to grow on their body.
The means by which they harden into stone involve an intricate cell system that stores moisture within the interior of each cell and is protected by carbon-rich cell walls. Any item a Rock Human carries when he's hibernating will be covered with a hard membrane which tears off like a scab upon awakening.
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.[2]
Поведение
Каменные Организмы едят растения, фрукты, орехи, мясо, рыбу, и все другие формы жизни. Они обожают мёд и все имеют аллергию на манго.
Матери Каменных Людей почти никогда не испытывают привязанности или родительских отношений со своими детьми. Вскоре после рождения ребёнка, они несут его в лес и оставляют на корнях мёртвого дерева.
После того как мать их оставила, младенец Каменного Человека ожидает атаки осы, за которую он прицепится и будет использовать в качестве транспорта к улью. Он превращается в камень посреди полёта, покрываясь феромонами, чтобы другие осы приняли его за еду. После достижения улья, он вращает своё каменное тело, пока не найдут королеву. Тогда ребёнок впивается в самую мягкую часть тела королевы и залезает внутрь, эффективно оседлав тело королевы, оставив только одну её половину живой. Он научит себя законам природы, течении времени, концепции чисел, и как жить в группе. Он ожидает 17 лет до его первой "линьки", после которой он отправится во внешний мир после убийства всех ос.[1]
Rock Humans' actions are fundamentally independent and they have no families, but they will sometimes form groups for self-benefit and infiltrate human society. However, they don't form any relationships beyond "give and take" ones.[1] That said, it is shown that Yotsuyu Yagiyama and Aisho Dainenjiyama had some bond together, as Yotsuyu saved Aisho from drowning and empathized with him when he lost his house and was betrayed by his girlfriend; likewise Aisho was angered that Yotsuyu had died and considered him a comrade.[3] The A. Phex Brothers were also quite attached to each other as siblings.
They hold a certain reverence for the power found within the Earth and nature. As they are fundamentally able to live through weather changes, they require no assets such as a house or land.[2] They like to make places that give humans special powers their "true home".[1]
With the natural nature of humans spreading and migrating across the continents and their continuous migration to this day, Rock Humans are unable to safely coexist or mutually understand human society. With their natural environment 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.[1] 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.[2]
Способности
Каменная Кожа: Presumably separate from hibernation, each Rock Human 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.[4] 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.[5]
Стенды: 95% Каменных Людей владеют Стендом. Причина высокой доли пользователей Стенда скорее всего из-за их жизни в "особых местах" включая Ладонь Дьявола и территории около Глазастых Стен в Морио, земли которых известны возможностью одаривать способностью Стенда. [1]
Социальные Роли
The typical behavior of some Rock Humans 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.
Организация Локакака
Эта группа Каменных Людей, возглавляемая Тору, уделяют приоритетное внимание получению силы равноценного обмена Нового Локакака, а также тайного приобритению и продаже фруктов Локакака для богатства и власти.
Контрабандный Картель
Внутри организации есть небольшая фракция во главе с Тамаки Дамо, 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.
Исследователи
Исследователи фрукта Локакака состоят из нескольких каменных людей, работающих врачами в TG University Hospital, включая предводителя Сатору Акефу. Они хотят уберечь Новое Локакака на благо расы Каменных Людей. Хотя точных деталей их целей в настоящее время неизвестны, 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]".

Интересные Факты
- Как и у Каменных Людей, у Араки тоже аллергия на манго, как написано в его Авторской Записи в Weekly Shonen Jump, выпуск #32, 2004
- В арке Love Love Deluxe, цикл взросления каменных людей описан по другому. Они не растут резко в осиных ульях, вместо этого они "линяют" целыми телами раз в шесть лет. Эта трансформация происходит во время их сна, и по какой-то неизвестной причине, поза в которой они спят может изменятся каждый раз [2]
