Yoshikage Kira
The main antagonist of the story, he is a serial killer who been murdering women for over 15 years.
He longs for a simple life and doesn't wish to be bothered, shown by the fact that despite his many talents, both physical and intellectual, he purposely holds back so as to not draw attention to himself.
He keeps a collection of his own fingernail clippings (sorted in jars by year, with the length of each recorded in a notebook) and has a fetish for the female hand, stemming from an erotic fascination with the hands of the Mona Lisa as a young boy.
This results in his murdering women in order to acquire their (severed) hands as "girlfriends"--when one "girlfriend" begins to decay, he goes off in search of a replacement.
Originally, Kira murdered his victims by stabbing them so viciously they were left with horrific back wounds.
However his Stand Killer Queen, named after "Killer Queen", eventually awoke from his desire to leave no evidence behind--hence its ability to completely disintegrate his victims by explosion.
He now lets Killer Queen annihilate his victims (except for their hands), letting everyone else think that the victims have simply gone missing.
After being found out by, and battling, Jotaro and Koichi, Kira flees and forces Aya Tsuji to use her Stand and change his face.
He kills her and then escapes before they can catch up.
His new identity was that of Kosaku Kawajiri and in order to not be discovered, he fights the urge and refrains from killing.
However, Kawajiri's son Hayato realizes his father is acting strange and follows him trying to figure out why.
Eventually Kira admits to him who he is and seemingly kills Hayato, but Kira soon after learns Killer Queen No. 3 and uses it on Hayato, implying that it brought him back to life.
He uses Hayato as a weapon to kill Josuke's group and actually does, however because of some restrictions on the ability, Hayato is able to trick him into ending the technique and giving away his new identity, the final fight ensues.
He is killed when Jotaro knocks him into the path of a fire truck, and is later shown as a ghost, at the mercy of the ghosts of his "girlfriend" hands.
Killer Queen's Bomb No. 1 turns anything it touches into a bomb, while Bomb No. 2 titled Sheer Heart Attack, named after "Sheer Heart Attack", is a small indestructible fully automated tank-treaded bomb that attacks the object with the highest temperature in the area.
He acquires Bomb No. 3 titled Bite the Dust, taken from "Another One Bites the Dust", towards the end of the arc when he is accidentally stabbed with the Bow and Arrow.
This ability plants a miniaturized Killer Queen on a person and kills anyone that tries to learn info about Kira from them, as well as protects that person.
When they learn Kira's identity, Killer Queen enters their field of vision, then enters their eye and explodes.
The period of time in which the victim learns his identity and the bomb explodes is repeated in-loop until Kira learns who the bomb killed.
He must remove the technique to use Killer Queen in any other form.
Kira also stars in Araki's three chapter spin-off story Dead Man's Questions, which was published in the magazine Allman in 1999 and follows him as a ghost after his death.
