History Characters / JojosBizarreAdventureEgyptNineGloryGods

* WakeUpCallBoss: As the first of the Nine Egypt Glory Gods the gang faces, N'Doul being able to take out two of them -- seriously wounding one for the rest of the story -- quickly shows how much more dangerous future enemies will be in comparison to the ones they had faced before.

* TheSmurfettePrinciple: She's the only female member of the Nine Egyptian Gods.

* BreakoutVillain: He's one of the most popular of DIO's minions. He's the only one of the Nine Egypt Glory Gods aside from N'Doul who's ''not'' omitted from the OVA. He's also a PuzzleBoss in the ''Eyes Of Heaven'' video game, where you have to play him in a game of Poker for [[Manga/JoJosBizarreAdventureStoneOcean Jolyne's]] soul.

* DoWellButNotPerfect: The D'arby brothers not only share similar stands, but the key to freeing the souls they've captured is the same: One must best them in a manner that they admit defeat (either internally or externally), but must avoid knocking them out or inflicting fatal wounds to them as NoOntologicalInertia is completely averted with their stands.

->''"Niahh kawww jah! (I'm not your feathered friend!)"''

A sapient falcon working for DIO, whose job is to eliminate anyone who comes to investigate the mansion or even tries to enter it. Brutal, cold, and merciless, he fights Iggy after he stumbles across the location of DIO's mansion. He is named after the Music/PetShopBoys.
\\
\\
His Stand, Horus, named after [[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Horus the Egyptian god of the sky]], can instantly generate and manipulate ice.
-----
* AttackAnimal: As the guardian of DIO's mansion, he relentlessly pursues and kills anyone who tries to intrude for whatever reason, not discriminating on whether they're intentionally trying to find it or just trespassing. Given [[AxCrazy his nature]], though, it almost makes you wonder if he even ''needs'' such a reason to kill in the first place.
* AttackBackfire: He's very vulnerable to this, as the ice generated by Horus can hurt ''him'' too if it's somehow redirected at him. Ultimately, he dies via [[HoistByHisOwnPetard exploding ice bolt trapped in his beak]].
* AxCrazy: It's clear that he can understand what Iggy's saying about not going near DIO's mansion anymore, he just doesn't ''care''. He wants Iggy ''dead''.
* BrutalBirdOfPrey: A vicious falcon and guardian of DIO's mansion who also happens to be a Stand user.
* ButForMeItWasTuesday: His ending in ''[[VideoGame/JojosBizarreAdventureHeritageForTheFuture Heritage for the Future]]'' has him successfully killing all of the heroes and allowing DIO to take over everything unopposed: but even then, for the sheer ''joy'' of what he does, Pet Shop continues his role as guard bird as if nothing had happened.
* ChainedByFashion: He has a cuff around his neck, which he keeps covered up with his scarf, but the chain attached to the cuff constantly dangles in front of his chest.
* CruelAndUnusualDeath: Iggy chomps on Pet Shop's beak while he's conjuring an icicle, causing the ice to expand in its head and kill him. That and the collapsing, flooded tunnel they were in sealed Pet Shop's fate.
* DeathGlare: When not outright attacking, a murderous glare is essentially Pet Shop's default expression; effectively showing right off the bat that while he is intelligent enough to ''understand'' what Iggy's trying to tell him about not caring for DIO's Mansion, he's evil enough to [[LeaveNoWitnesses intend on tearing him to pieces anyway]]. It's especially unnerving when combined with one of his [[SlasherSmile smiles]].
-->'''Iggy:''' ''(to himself)'' Those eyes... that's the thing with birds, you can ''never'' tell what they're thinking!
* DemBones: Horus is a half-frozen, skeletal bird of prey with multiple arms.
* {{Determinator}}: Pet Shop does not stop chasing Iggy until he dies. Part of what makes him so frightening is not only his sheer determination, raging bloodlust and the evident fun he takes in what he does, but how ''unpredictable'' he is. Several times he flies off like he thinks he's killed his target or been repelled by a successful attack; only for Pet Shop to turn out to be completely aware they're still alive, then [[JumpScare reappear at the worst possible moment]] and even more determined to kill.
* DubNameChange: In ''Eyes of Heaven'' he's called Animal Shop. An odd example as previous localized works -- ''Heritage for the Future'' and Crunchyroll dubs -- don't change his name.
* EarlyBirdCameo: Makes a small appearance in Episode 5 of the anime, replacing the generic parrot perched on DIO's shoulder in the manga. This was due to how when Araki wrote the original manga, he was yet to plan out the character of Pet Shop at that point; so having DIO's personal attack bird there in a newer adaptation makes a lot more sense than the aforementioned parrot.
* EyeballPluckingBirds: When two large dogs attempt to attack him and inflitrate his master DIO's mansion, Pet Shop proceeds to decapitate both dogs with his Stand powers and pluck their eyes out for eating.
* EvilCounterpart: Can be considered this to Iggy: An IntellectualAnimal Stand-user with an elemental power that fills a sort of TeamPet role. The difference? Pet Shop, in addition to working for DIO, is [[PsychoForHire utterly ruthless on his job as guardian]] (he killed a boy's two dogs just because they peeked under DIO's Mansion gate and nearly kills said boy) and [[TheVoiceless is never given a mental speaking line]]; while Iggy, despite initially feeling that he was dragged against his will to the Crusaders' quest, shows more loyalty to them (and the aforementioned boy who was about to be killed by saving him from Pet Shop, [[BecauseYouWereNiceToMe and even gets saved by him in turn]]) by being a SpannerInTheWorks (albeit unwittingly), and we get several mental speaking lines from him. To boot, Pet Shop is the only Stand User Iggy fights on his own.
* EvilIsDeathlyCold. And really, it doesn't get much colder than a pitiless, intelligent sadist of a falcon who commands a frozen, half-skeletal bird of prey with cryokinesis.
* EvilLaugh: Despite usually being TheVoiceless, Pet Shop pulls off a variation of this if he wins in ''Heritage for the Future'': cawing in a manner that suggests he's chuckling evilly at his latest victim.
* EvilVirtues: Loyalty, resourcefulness and determination. Pet Shop is truly dedicated to his master and keeping his location a secret, and doesn't only target people deliberately scouting the mansion, but also trespassers. He's also [[CombatPragmatist more than willing to use any advantage he has to get them]].
* EyeScream: In one [[NightmareFuel/JojosBizarreAdventureStardustCrusaders memorably-horrifying sequence]], Pet Shop uses his beak to tear out the eye of one of the dogs he'd just brutally killed, and slowly eats it in front of his distraught owner.
* FacialHorror: Just before his head explodes from his own forming ice bolt being trapped inside it by Iggy's suicide attack, Pet Shop's beak can be seen cracking to pieces right before he dies.
* FatalFlaw: Wrath. Pet Shop's sheer determination to kill Iggy, even after the latter offers to leave both him and DIO's mansion alone after initially wounding him, is what ultimately leads to him being killed instead. By extension, it also catalyses [[NiceJobFixingItVillain Iggy leading the Joestar Group to DIO's mansion]]; before that, he didn't care at all and even says as much when offering his truce.
* FeatheredFiend: A super-fast sapient guard falcon with ice powers, and a ''very'' creepy {{Sadist}} to boot.
* {{Foil}}: Serves as one to Iggy, both being the [[TeamPet Team Pets]] of their respective sides. However, while Iggy is ultimately a good guy despite caring only for himself and not the Joestar Group's cause, Pet Shop is undeniably evil while also being [[UndyingLoyalty completely loyal to his master]] and determined to protect him at all costs. He shows what Iggy may have become if he abandoned his few scruples and was influenced by someone like DIO.
* GateGuardian: Pet Shop serves as the guardian of DIO's mansion and he will attack and kill anyone who is trying to look for his mansion, intruders or other living beings that are near the mansion. Once Pet Shop dies, DIO lets the Joestar Group in and orders his other servants inside the mansion to handle them.
* GlassCannon: Pet Shop will generally be this whenever he's a playable character in one of the tie-in games. He's very fast and agile, able to fly and easily trap his opponents in ice, and his damage output in particular is ''insane''. Being a bird though, his durability often tends to be the worst in the game. In ''Eyes of Heaven'', this is an exploitable weakness; although Pet Shop can fly fast to easily avoid most attacks, he has to come down periodically to roost, which a savvy player can use to attack him when he has to land.
* HoistByHisOwnPetard: Iggy bites Pet Shop's beak closed before he can fire an ice bolt from his throat, which causes it to expand and eventually burst inside his own head.
* AnIcePerson: Horus's powers are ice-based, allowing Pet Shop to use attacks such as a FreezeRay-like beam that can solidify anything it touches, and launch barrages of razor-sharp icicles like homing missiles.
* ImplacableMan: In this case, implacable animal. Iggy tries to lose him several times but he keeps coming regardless. Even trying to hide at the bottom of the deep local river doesn't deter Pet Shop: he just dives in after him and takes full advantage of his species' innate ability to stay underwater for long periods.
* IncorrectAnimalNoise: Even though he's a falcon, he sounds more like a vulture in the anime.
* IntellectualAnimal: Even though we never know for certain what Pet Shop is thinking, it's clear that -- much like Iggy and Forever before him -- he is much smarter than an average bird.
* JumpScare: Pet Shop's fight with Iggy has him pulling several genuinely frightening variations of these. He forces the terrier to retreat several times, and then each time Iggy thinks he's gotten away, Pet Shop either pursues him or is already there to ambush him; even underground and deep underwater.
-->'''Iggy:''' ''(while hiding, runs into Pet Shop)'' AAAAGH! What is this freaking bird's ''deal''?!
* KnightOfCerebus: Especially after the comical duo of Boingo and Hol Horse. Pet Shop has quite the kill count for a bird, killing two dogs as well as a man who helps out the Joestars, and gives Iggy the bloodiest fight up to that point in Part 3. Once he appears, the last two Stand users the group faces give the group the hardest fight they would have. And whereas the other Nine Glory Gods all had their comedic quirks and other aspects that helped dilute the fear factor they had somewhat (even [[AxCrazy Alessi]] and [[LivingDollCollector Telence T. D'Arby]]), Pet Shop has no such things. The sheer primal ''terror'' of fighting him is played completely straight the whole time.
* LeaveNoWitnesses: Pet Shop's entire ''modus operandi''. If anyone, regardless of age, species or intention -- be they intentionally trespassing or simply stumbling in -- crosses the border of DIO's mansion, he'll immediately pursue and mercilessly kill them to keep its true purpose a secret for his master.
* LighterAndSofter: Downplayed. Although Pet Shop is still an absolute terror to fight in ''Heritage for the Future'', some of his [[SuddenlyVoiced now-translated shrieks]] in his victory quotes give the bloodthirsty bird a snarky and even slightly humorous side to him among all his usual creepiness.
-->'''Pet Shop:''' Kyooooooon! (It's a little worm!)\\
'''Pet Shop:''' Gyaaah! (Go back to your coop!)\\
'''Pet Shop:''' Gyoe! (Leave my tail feathers alone!)
* LightningBruiser: Doubles as both this and a GlassCannon. Although Pet Shop's durability is lacking due to being a bird, his sheer speed and attacking power, combined with his [[{{Determinator}} persistence]] and expansive knowledge of ambushing and killing, makes him a real force to be reckoned with. In the end, Iggy is only barely able to defeat him with an [[DeathOrGloryAttack all-or-nothing suicide attack]], and would have [[MutualKill certainly died as well]] without the assistance of [[AndroclesLion the boy he'd rescued from Pet Shop earlier]].
* MacrossMissileMassacre: He can do this by launching several icicles like missiles. To top it off, the icicles will explode and freeze anything they collide with.
* MaliciousMisnaming: In the dub, Iggy refers to Pet Shop exclusively in insulting terms like [[WesternAnimation/LooneyTunes "Tweety"]], "Feather Boy", and [[BrooklynRage "That Boid"]] (bird), due to not actually knowing his name.
* MultiArmedAndDangerous: Horus itself has multiple arms with sharp three-fingered claws, which it often uses to form, hold and then throw Pet Shop's giant icicles when he goes on the attack.
* NoNonsenseNemesis: Anyone who sets foot on DIO's mansion '''''DIES''''', no questions asked. Even when Iggy tried to escape, Pet Shop relentlessly chased him down with no intention of stopping until one of them was dead. His brutally, relentlessly efficient fighting style is, in fact, the main thing that makes him one of the most genuinely scary members of the Glory Gods despite his outlandish character concept.
* OhCrap: It's understated, but the look in his eyes when Iggy bites his beak shut and traps the forming ice bolt inside his head shows he knew just how ''fucked'' he was.
* PersonalityPowers: DIO's right-hand falcon can also freeze things, but not in a way that supercedes his master. Being in charge of ensuring no one witnesses their goings-on by killing anyone who steps foot on DIO's property, having ice as his weapon also ensures that there will eventually be no evidence, as it'll melt and evaporate rather quickly thanks to the climate.
* PragmaticVillainy: In general, only those attempting to look for DIO's mansion or anyone not allied with DIO attempting to set foot on the mansion's grounds will be killed regardless of their intentions. He demonstrates this by letting a civilian go unharmed despite almost getting hit by him, due to the fact that both Iggy was a priority and the man hadn't sought out DIO's mansion.
* PsychoForHire: While he can't speak, nor can we see his thoughts like Iggy's, it's quite plain that not only is he intelligent, he's flat-out ''evil''. [[EyeScream Those dogs, man, geez...]]
* PsychoticSmirk: Despite being a bird, and therefore ''theoretically'' unable to change his expression easily, Pet Shop has this skill down to a T, often combining it with a KubrickStare. It goes to show, without any words whatsoever, just how much he enjoys killing and maiming his prey even beyond what's necessary.
* {{Sadist}}: It's very clear from his PsychoticSmirk several times during his fight with Iggy that he ''relishes'' his duties, particularly enjoying the terror he inflicts on his prey as he actively hunts and corners them, before [[CruelAndUnusualDeath killing them as violently as possible]]. In Chapter 11 of ''[[Manga/JoJosBizarreAdventureCrazyDiamondsDemonicHeartbreak Crazy Diamond's Demonic Heartbreak]]'', it's revealed he also froze the gasoline on his original owner's body, lit the gasoline around him on fire with a match, and stabbed him with Horus' icicles until the fire eventually thawed him out and set him on fire. In Josuke's words, Pet Shop was just playing with his prey. ''And he was grinning during all of it''.
* ScarfOfAsskicking: Along with his falconry cap, Pet Shop also wears a long, flowing pink scarf.
* SecretKeeper: Pet Shop not only serves as a gatekeeper, he also prevents knowledge of DIO's location from getting out: as seen when he steals and immediately destroys the photographs of DIO's mansion from the man in the car, after mulching him with a giant icicle.
* SelfMadeOrphan: Chapter 10 of ''[[Manga/JoJosBizarreAdventureCrazyDiamondsDemonicHeartbreak Crazy Diamond's Demonic Heartbreak]]'' reveals that after he and his brother, Pet Sounds, were taken in by DIO, his first order from DIO was to use Horus to murder his original owner, to which Pet Shop gladly complied and {{impaled|with extreme prejudice}} his original owner with a giant icicle. The following chapter showed that he was then burned to death.
* SelfSurgery: Freezes shut a wound that Iggy inflicted on him using the powers of Horus.
* ShownTheirWork: The explanation of why Pet Shop has an advantage over Iggy underwater; which is given as the bird pursues him beneath a deep river, just after forcing him to [[LifeOrLimbDecision gnaw off his own paw to escape an otherwise-fatal ice trap]].
-->'''Narrator:''' Birds have the capacity to dive underwater. Like humans and canines, birds are reliant upon lungs for respiration, but the average bird has five to six air sacs stored away in its chest and stomach regions. It's these pockets of air that give birds the ability to remain conscious at altitudes of up to six to seven thousand meters: a feat completely impossible for humans! Even if it were to be strangled, a bird can survive for several minutes thanks to its internal air reserves. ''(cut back to Pet Shop diving after Iggy)'' With these advantages, a bird can survive underwater much longer than a dog!
* SignatureHeadgear: He wears a cool-looking feathered falconry cap adorned with [[WickedHeartSymbol his master's heart patterns]].
* SuperPersistentPredator: If you enter the grounds of DIO's mansion, you're a target: regardless of whether you were intentionally looking for it or not. Pet Shop chases Iggy all over Cairo, even pursuing him underwater and deep underground to try and get him.
* TeamPet: Pet Shop is what you get when the TeamPet turns evil.
* UncattyResemblance: It's pretty subtle, but when he delivers a PsychoticSmirk, he bears a slight resemblance to DIO. Much like his master, he also seems to [[KickTheDog especially hate dogs]].
* UpliftedAnimal: Like any animal who gains a Stand.
* TheVoiceless:
** Despite, like Iggy, evidently being highly intelligent for an animal; Pet Shop is never heard thinking aloud, and mostly does his fighting in grim silence. The rare times you ''do'' hear him vocalise, they're [[HellIsThatNoise very creepy distortions of regular bird of prey shrieks]] and other sounds: up to and including [[LaughingMad cawing that sounds like gleefully vicious laughter]] when he scores a kill.
** Subverted in ''Heritage for the Future'', where some of his screeches are translated in his victory dialogue:
--->'''Pet Shop:''' Kyaah kaaw nii kyaaah! (Your bones will make me a fine nest!)\\
'''Pet Shop:''' Kaaw... Kakaaw... Nyaah... (Rest under the shade of this tree...)
* WickedHeartSymbol: Pet Shop wears a heart on his falconry helmet -- not unlike his master who's adorned with them -- and shares the same raging bloodlust as him.
* WouldHurtAChild: After the poor kid crawls into DIO's mansion looking for his dogs who have wandered in, Pet Shop dives down and gets ready to tear him apart, just like he'd just done with them. [[BigDamnHeroes Then Iggy jumps in]].
* YourHeadASplode: It's implied that Iggy trapping a forming ice bolt inside Pet Shop's beak led to this. We don't actually see his head's fragments, though, just his cracking beak, then an explosive cloud while looking at Pet Shop from behind.

->''"Much like my brother, I'm what you might call a humble collector of sorts. My... Thinking about it, all collectors must yearn to share their treasures for that moment of praise."''

The younger brother of Daniel J. D'Arby, he is the butler of DIO's mansion that fights the Joestars. He is named after [[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Terence_Trent_D%27Arby Terence Trent D'Arby/Sananda Maitreya]].
\\
\\
His Stand, Atum, named after [[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Atum the Egyptian primordial creator god]], is similar to his brother's, having the ability to steal one's soul when they admit defeat in their heart. Unlike Daniel, however, his Stand ''also'' has the ability to read another person's soul, effectively reading their mind by asking questions with yes/no answers.
-----
* AdaptationDyeJob: Has a brown-ish orange-like hair color in the manga, in the anime, his hair is green.
* AintTooProudToBeg: Telence once he's cornered, subconsciously gives up Kakyoin and then consciously/pitifully begs to be spared after acting insufferably smug the entire fight. This serves to emphasize how pathetic he is in comparison to his brother, who had to be pushed to [[DrivenToMadness the brink of mental exhaustion to finally collapse]] while Telence folds under the slightest bit of pressure.
* AmbiguouslyBi: Of the DepravedBisexual variety. He's never outright stated to be bi, but the way he took his time fondling the Kakyoin doll after winning Kakyoin's soul, as well as how he fondly reminisces about changing the clothes on and talking to all his dolls suggests that he might swing both ways.
* AmbiguousSituation: His story with him beating up his older brother when the latter cheated with the former's girlfriend. Given the person [[ConsummateLiar telling the narrative]] and the lack of [[AffablyEvil truly perversive and negative attributes of Daniel outside of being a shameless cheater]], it's likely a fabrication to suit Telence's ego and for the girlfriend that Daniel was likely saving from his younger brother's habit of [[AndIMustScream adding people to his collection]].
** It's not made as clear if the souls of Telence's victims left their doll containers like Daniel's did once he was defeated or if only Kakyoin was freed with the others being permanently trapped.
** In stark contrast to Vanilla Ice and Kenny G, who are both unambiguously killed, it's unknown whether he was killed when Star Platinum pulverized him or if he was just knocked unconscious, since he's never seen again after being sent crashing through the ceiling.
* AndIMustScream: Unlike his brother, Telence doesn't leave the souls he collects dormant. Instead, he traps them in dolls that are aware of everything going on but unable to do anything. Unlike his brother's collected souls, we never see these return to their bodies either when he's defeated.
* AnimalMotifs: [[http://i1.kym-cdn.com/photos/images/original/000/953/872/482.gif Atum's upper facial structure]] bears quite a few similarities [[http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/1/19/Barn_Owl_-_Abingdon_2013_%288731175397%29.jpg to that of a barn owl]].
* AnimeHair: His hairdo is rather similar to Polnareff's being a very long beehive hairstyle... however, unlike Polnareff, his is probably ''curled'' into that style.
* AssholeVictim: According to him, one of his victims, [[DeadlyDoctor Dr. Elliott]], is a SerialKiller who killed 8 of his patients. While Telence is much worse, stealing Elliott's soul remains the closest thing to a good deed he ever did.
* AvengingTheVillain: Averted. The protagonists assume that he's interested in doing this for his brother, but Telence denies this by seeing his brother as a gullible fool and had been brutal to him in the past.
* BatmanGambit: When racing against Kakyoin, he counted on the fact that Kakyoin would try and knock him off the track mid-air. Telence would then take advantage of the momentum to land on the other side of the track, so far ahead that Kakyoin would have no chance of catching up to him.
* BattleButler: Describes himself as this, but doesn't have nearly the tenacity and loyalty of Vanilla Ice, then again, [[BlindObedience few would ever have that level of loyalty.]].
* BeehiveHairdo: Started out with a short hair in his first appearance, only to become this out of nowhere a few pages later. It apparently mimics a pharaoh's crown, fitting his Stand's namesake.
* BroughtToYouByTheLetterS: His initials (T.D.) appear in the shape of the earrings he wears, and on his Stand's face.
* TheCameo: Telence is in charge of the 3D Model gallery in ''All-Star Battle''.
* CaptainObvious: Reduced to this when Jotaro asks Telence what the former intends to do to the latter in retribution to what he did to his friend and intended on doing to all of them. Telence reads his mind and says aloud the [[NoHoldsBarredBeatdown beating he's about to receive]], much to Joseph's eventual annoyance.
* TheCollector: A [[PsychopathicManchild more psychotic and childish]] one compared to his brother.
* DickDastardlyStopsToCheat: He was a much more experienced gamer than Jotaro and could probably have beaten him legitimately, but he insisted on relying on Atum's abilities even after it became very clear that Jotaro was managing to circumvent them. This leads to him being defeated easily.
* DirtyCoward: He had the confidence and smugness that he can win any fight with his powers, but once the Joestars manage to outwit him, he panics, causing him to lose Kakyoin, and [[BlatantLies claim that he didn't lose the will to fight]]. He starts to [[AintTooProudToBeg beg Jotaro not to hit him]] and then [[ThisIsGonnaSuck panics that he's going to be pummeled anyway]]. In short, he acts high and mighty, but the slightest threat makes him crumble pitifully, which contrasts him with his brother who had to be DrivenToMadness by cornering him mentally/physically due to him taking any pressure with stride.
* DoWellButNotPerfect: The D'arby brothers not only share similar stands, but the key to freeing the souls they've captured is the same: One must best them in a manner that they admit defeat (either internally or externally), but must avoid knocking them out or inflicting fatal wounds to them as NoOntologicalInertia is completely averted with their stands.
* DubNameChange: Kinda. The English dub of the 2014 anime put both Daniel and Telence on a LastNameBasis, the only difference between the two being Daniel is called D'Arby the Elder while Telence is called D'Arby the Younger.
* EvilSoundsDeep: Not quite as booming a voice as Daniel's, but it's still a baritone in the anime, courtesy of Creator/JunichiSuwabe.
* FairPlayVillain: PlayedWith. He technically never cheats, but this is a show of confidence rather than honor. He never breaks the rules because they're already established in a way that favors his Stand as detailed in LoopholeAbuse.
* FateWorseThanDeath: His Stand makes his victims fully aware of their situation, but unable to move or do anything besides talk to or interact with D'Arby as he makes them his (literal) playthings. As shown with some of his dolls, including Sonya (who [[LoveMartyr begs to talk to the man who imprisoned her]], and cries TearsOfJoy when he picks her up to show to the Joestar Group), [[DeadlyDoctor Doctor Elliot]] (who [[LaughingMad laughs insanely]] and [[SerialKiller rants incomprehensively about the eight patients he murdered in life]]) and Tatsuhiko (who cries constant BrokenTears and [[IWantMyMommy begs for his mother]]), they've evidently been that way for likely several years; with [[SanitySlippage all the mental damage such imprisonment would do]] made ''abundantly'' clear.
* FauxAffablyEvil: Unlike his AffablyEvil brother, any form of politeness from Telence oozes of cruelty and sadism. As Kakyoin and Joseph put it after seeing his real personality as a LivingDollCollector:
-->'''Joseph:''' ''(horrified)'' You're just as messed-up in the head as your brother. Actually, you're more sadistic than your brother ''ever'' was! I'd hate to see what your parents were like!\\
'''Kakyoin:''' I'm out of patience with this sociopath's puppet show. ''He makes me sick''.
* {{Foil}}: Telence is one to his older brother Daniel. While both have Stands with the power to collect souls of their victims, Telence takes it a step further by allowing his victims be fully conscious of what's going on around them. While Daniel at least admits that he would not hesitate to cheat in his games, Telence claims he would not resort to cheating yet secretly tricks the opponent into accepting rules that favor Atum. Even their methods of cheating differ. Daniel primarily chooses the BoringButPractical approach, whereas Telence relies on the power of his Stand to help read his opponents' moves.
* {{Geek}}: He keeps a lot of video games, giving him a PsychopathicManchild vibe.
* GratuitousEnglish: Just like his brother, he also says "Good".
* HateSink: He's a nasty piece of work, much more so than even the other Nine Glory Gods. He absolutely ''oozes'' cruelty and sadism, and the Joestar Group considers him a special brand of awful.
* HiddenDepths:
** As creepy as it is, he can make pretty intricate dolls all by himself.
** He's a surprisingly talented artist if his spot-on drawings of Atum and Star Platinum, which he uses to customize their respective baseball teams, are of any indication.
* {{Hypocrite}}: He condemns others for cheating, so what does his Stand do? Read his opponent's mind in order to have an advantage. Played with in that while his mind-reading technically isn't considered cheating, he's still tricking his opponent into accepting rules (allowing Stand usage) that heavily favor him, which they won't realize until it's too late because most opponents assume that Atum's only ability is soul stealing.
* IHaveYouNowMyPretty: After storing Kakyoin's soul into a doll, he starts touching him... rather suggestively. He taunts Jotaro and Joseph that harming him will also harm Kakyoin; as he strokes the doll's chest (with his hand stopping at the crotch area), peeks under his coat, rubs his cheek against his, and then strokes his cheek with one finger. It's heavily implied that he shows [[PsychopathicManchild this form of childish perversity]] to ''all'' of his dolls, especially when playing dress-up with them. The way he touches one of his victims, Sonia, is quite unnerving as well.
* InconsistentSpelling: There's a division between Te''r''ence and Te''l''ence.
* InferioritySuperiorityComplex: He claims to be better than his older brother in every way, from his physical strength, to the way he preserves souls, to the fact that he (apparently) doesn't cheat. Which makes it all the more humiliating for Telence when Jotaro tells him that Daniel would have figured out how he had cheated right away, even with his lack of mind reading powers.
* InformedAbility: In its introduction, Atum was able to dodge and grab Star Platinum's arm, hinting that it has some offensive capabilities. From that point onward, however, it mainly serves as a means for Telence to read minds and take the loser's soul, with no attempt to defend its user once Jotaro does its Ora-Ora barrage on him.
* LaserGuidedKarma: At one point, Telence recalls fondly how -- after [[DisproportionateRetribution catching his brother Daniel flirting with his then-girlfriend]] when they were younger -- [[NoHoldsBarredBeatdown he beat him to near-death]] and flat-out terrified the Elder D'Arby into never asking him to play games with him. With that being said, you only need ''one'' guess as to what happens to Telence in turn when he's defeated a few minutes later.
* {{Leitmotif}}: [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=f5Vm86dD3n0 Space of A Lone God]], an OminousMusicBoxTune with backing straight out of a horror movie, which perfectly fits his PsychopathicManchild personality and "collecting" methods.
* LivingDollCollector: His victims are still self-aware, unlike his brother's.
* LogicalWeakness: His mind-reading power can be vanquished with some clever thinking once you figure out the specifics of how it works:
** His Stand allows him a 100% accurate mind reading, but an extremely straightforward one, only allowing "yes" or "no" as answers. This is perfect when he has to go through a series of limited possibilities, since he can just test each of them. So, the Joestar Group defeats him with some lateral thinking.
** Telence has to be focusing on the targeted parties for Atum to affect them. This was instrumental in his downfall as Telence was so thoroughly convinced that Jotaro was cheating he never stopped to consider that Joseph might be in on it, instead laser focusing on Jotaro.
* LoopholeAbuse: Technically, both parties are allowed to use their Stands to assist them as long as they don't tamper with the game's mechanics or have allies interfere in the match, as shown by how Telence allowed Kakyoin to use Hierophant Green to assist with the controller. This means Telence is free to mind read his opponents while still following the rules of the game, since Atum has no effect on the game mechanics. On the other hand, most other Stands cannot use their ability in any meaningful way without breaking these rules. This is best shown when the game is allowed to continue despite Jotaro figuring out Atum's mind-reading ability.
* LostHimInACardGame: Same situation as his brother, only with the betting being done over video games.
* LovesTheSoundOfScreaming: He relishes in the sounds of despair of his victims.
* MaskOfSanity: He initially gives off an impression of being a polite yet snide villain like his elder brother, but it's soon revealed it hides his childish, sadistic, and psychotic nature as a LivingDollCollector who traps his victims [[AndIMustScream in dolls that are fully aware of their situation]].
* MeaningfulName: The Egyptian god Atum's name is derived from the verb meaning "to finish", and thus he was regarded as the finisher of the world. The Stand Atum is the last Egyptian deity themed Stand fought in the series.
* MindReading: His Stand's main power, which allows him to figure out the choice that the enemy will make.
* {{Narcissist}}: Not stated outright, but he has a tendency to pick the number 15 while playing his games because his birthday is January 5th.
* NightmareFetishist: And ''how''. Telence clearly takes a sadistic pleasure in the suffering of the [[CreepyDoll bizarre, frightening dolls with stolen human souls]] he keeps in his collection. What especially proves it is the reason why he keeps [[LaughingMad Doctor Elliot]] around in particular; because he enjoys listening to all the gruesome recounts of [[SerialKiller how the doctor murdered eight patients]] while he was alive.
* NoHoldsBarredBeatdown:
** He inflicted one on his brother for trying to steal his girlfriend. Keep in mind that at the time, Daniel was 25, and Telence was ''15''. Not only that, Daniel didn't even bother to defend himself, because he knew that with Atum, Telence would get around it anyway.
** As such, [[LaserGuidedKarma it fits that he himself is on the receiving end of one]], courtesy of Jotaro, once he is defeated.
* PaperTiger: His introduction is quite imposing with him being able to dodge Star Platinum and trap Jotaro's arm. Compared to his brother, Atum has some combat ability and his ability to read minds lets him predict attacks, but even with the prediction ability Atum is neither particularly fast nor strong. When he stops having the upperhand he resorts to begging and pleading.
* PracticallyDifferentGenerations: He's 10 years younger than his brother, and lampshades the large gap in their age when he remarks that they "are from different generations."
* PragmaticVillainy: Even when Jotaro proves himself to be a video game novice,[[note]]As in, he never even ''touched'' a game controller before ''Oh! That's a Baseball!''[[/note]] Telence still refuses to let his guard down against him. [[ProperlyParanoid After all, Jotaro never played poker before, either, yet he was still able to beat his brother Daniel in a card game.]]
* PsychopathicManchild: Unlike his brother, who was more businessman-like in his [[TheCollector idea of collecting]], he keeps them alive and conscious in the form of [[CreepyDoll immobile dolls]], and treats them like actual toys to play dress-up and chat with, not to mention his video game obsession.
* RankScalesWithAsskicking: Played with. There are many reasons one could think that Telence is the leader of the Egypt 9 Glory Gods: His stand, Atum, is named after the first god of the Egyptian mythology, and he's also part of the PraetorianGuard of DIO's Mansion. However, outside his mind-reading and soul taking powers, Atum doesn't have any concrete fighting skills that would put it above the more offense based powers of the other members. [[HeartIsAnAwesomePower Given that Stands are defined by the user's creativity in the application of their power and not purely by offensive capabilities]], it's a moot point.
* SeriousBusiness: Considering what Atum can do to your soul, video games become ''extremely'' serious business when he's around and your life is accordingly on the line.
* ShoutOut: In the English dub, he becomes this by way of CastingGag: a floating, predominantly white-clad villain voiced by Creator/XanderMobus who collects dolls made up of opponents he's defeated and has an in-depth knowledge of video games and their universes. [[VideoGame/SuperSmashBros Master Hand, is that you?]]
* SkilledButNaive: His mind-reading ability and gaming skills means he never needs to rely on cheating, but his lack of experience in cheating means he can't figure out how his opponent is cheating.
* SmugSnake: Oh, very much so. The first thing he does when challenging the heroes is to compare himself to his older brother, claiming he could only win through cheating against incompetent people. When the chips are down, however, while he is skilled at playing videogames, he actually relies on spamming his Stand's mind reading to win, and when it fails him he breaks down completely. In the end, he loses by not being able to think outside the box, failing to notice a trick his brother would have easily seen through.
* TheSociopath: He exhibits many typical traits of a textbook sociopath, including a LackOfEmpathy and manipulative nature. Kakyoin even calls him one in the English dub.
* SoreLoser: Becomes one when he starts losing to Jotaro and is unable to read his mind to find out ''how'' he's cheating.
* SoulPower: Rather than the straightforward ability to steal souls that Osiris possesses, Atum has a number of abilities revolving around the soul. By exploiting vulnerabilities in the soul, Atum can restrain an opponent or take their soul outright, and by reading a person's soul, it can determine a person's actions.
* StrongerSibling: [[DownplayedTrope Downplayed]]. He and his brother's Stands both have SoulPower as their main ability, but Telence has the additional ability to read the mind of his enemies through yes or no questions, giving him a little more versatility than his brother.
* {{Telepathy}}: The root of his ability. If he asks a yes or no question, the subject's response can be checked like a lie detector. By wording his questions in certain ways, he can even "predict" an opponent's attacks and counter them.
* ThisIsGonnaSuck: When Jotaro asks to read his mind if what he intends to do to Telence now that he's won, Telence says aloud Jotaro's intentions to beat him up with increasing panic, much to Joseph's eventual annoyance.
* VilerNewVillain: He is the last of the glory gods encountered and is only followed by Vanilla Ice before DIO himself. And not only is he more awful than his older brother, he is also the most heinous of DIO's goons since J. Geil! Is it any wonder why DIO is so fond of him?
* VillainInAWhiteSuit: He wears a natty white blazer and slacks, as befitting a self-described BattleButler.
* VillainsWantMercy: The last of DIO's followers to do this within the part. After being bested by the Joestars, he immediately begs to them on sparing him in spite of taking Kakyoin's soul and planning to take theirs as well. This on top of being a LivingDollCollector who keeps his victims conscious and aware of their surroundings. Needless to say, Jotaro doesn't comply and even suggests to Telence on what his thoughts are on the subject- [[CaptainObvious with Telence telling each blatant thought nervously to Joseph's annoyance]].
** This in turn, shows how pathetic he is in comparison to his older brother, who took unexpected complications to his plan with pride and had backups in case he was foiled, needing to be [[DrivenToMadness broken entirely with no option to lean back on to even beat]]. Telence on the other hand, immediately folds once his various attempts to figure out how the Joestars are cheating fail without going insane.
* VillainousBreakdown: Not quite as bad as his brother, but still impressive. He gets increasingly desperate to figure out how Jotaro is cheating at the game, throwing out various possibilities only to keep getting a "No", and then angrily shouting that he ''knows'' Jotaro is cheating only to be answered with a resounding "Yes", but it means nothing if he doesn't know ''how'' he's doing it in order to counter. When he actually loses, he can only stare in shock for a few moments and try to frantically claim he can still win despite having given up Kakyoin's soul due to admitting defeat in his heart, and then he's reduced to begging Jotaro not to hurt him. At that point, Jotaro lets him read his mind to let him know ''exactly'' how this is about to go down, with increasing panic before he actually gets his beatdown.
* WickedHeartSymbol: Telence sports one on the shirt beneath his vest. Meanwhile, his Stand Atum has these practically everywhere but its head.
* WorthyOpponent: He views Kakyoin as this, due to his skills in F-Mega and the ability to conquer his fears. As well as being the first to genuinely make Telence nervous of losing. He also considers one of his previous victims, Tatsuhiko, as such, praising the latter's 190 I.Q. and noting that it wasn't easy to beat him.
* WouldHurtAChild: Has one in his doll collection.

* AdaptationalWimp: On the other hand, Khan becomes this in the aforementioned game. While in the manga, he proved a decently formidable opponent, he's by far and away the weakest of the three Anubis wielders... and [[JokeCharacter one of the worst characters in the whole game]]. With his simplified versions of Chaka and Black Polnareff's moves, he's easy enough to learn for someone picking up the game for the first time to likely figure out everything and get to fighting in about ten minutes; but [[SkillGateCharacter once the player actually knows what they're doing]], they'll find Khan's skill ceiling is practically hugging the dirt.

** D'Arby was already being rattled by Jotaro not looking at his cards while making increasingly absurd bets of confidence in them being his ace in the hole. What really began his FreakOut was Jotaro seemingly plucking a cigarette and glass of juice out of nowhere. Was it merely the fact that his untraceable speed, which would make him be able to get away with cheating to thus make D'Arby spill out the truth of DIO's Stand, or was it [[spoiler:him suspecting that Jotaro had the same power -- specifically TimeStandsStill -- DIO had]], which make him even more worried that his boss would punish him for not dealing with such a threat earlier? The former is taking the situation at face value that Jotaro managed to bluff himself as being a better cheater than D'Arby while the latter is taking into account that D'Arby had faced this situation before and connected the dots enough to be ProperlyParanoid about Jotaro's power.

* EvenEvilHasStandards:
** Despite his attempts to violently kill the Joestar Group -- after already mutilating several Speedwagon Foundation pilots -- he's genuinely appalled when he finds out that Jotaro threw Iggy, a dog, at him while trying to get close enough to attack.

* HumiliationConga: After having climbed the ladder of increasingly deadly masters, reaching his height in the hands of Polnareff, his next master ends up being a small boy. He then goes for a DeathOrGloryAttack, throwing the last shard of himself to kill Jotaro... and then trips on Iggy mid-swing and misses. He's on track to embed himself in a nearby wall, but then turns on his intangibility by accident in the panic and phases through it, leaving him hurtling towards the Nile River. His last chance comes in the form of a boat sailing in his path, but instead of landing in one of the sailors or in the mast, he lands in a ''cow'', at which the cow (the presumed final master of Anubis) goes mad with pain, falls into the river, and dislodges the blade in the process, leaving it to sink to the bottom. The fact that he gets something like three or four different {{Hope Spot}}s in the space of a single throw makes his final fate all the more comical.

* RankScalesWithAsskicking: Played with. By being a part of the PraetorianGuard of DIO's mansion, the assumption could be made that he is nominally the leader of the Nine Glory Gods through narrative logic. However, outside his mind-reading and soul taking powers, Atum doesn't have any concrete fighting skills that would put it above the more offense based powers of the other members. [[HeartIsAnAwesomePower Given that Stands are defined by the user's creativity in the application of their power and not purely by offensive capabilities]], it's a moot point.
