Nicknames: Barb, Barbs (primarily by Jotaro)
Birthday: October 31, 1969
One of the first in the long list of Cacciatore-Zeppeli descendants, Barbara is a Hamon-Stand User born and raised in New York City. Due to growing up on the streets of New York, she has a sharp wit and is able to think and act on the fly. Barbara also often speaks bluntly, stating the obvious and using logic to get things to go her way. She takes pride in her independence to the point where she has initial difficultly realizing and coming to terms that she can't fight every battle on her own. Towards her allies, she is kind, loyal and protective -- even if she does possess a streak of teasing them. Towards enemies, Barbara is harsh and ruthless, not hesitating to act for a moment when in battle against them the way she sees fit. This can manifest in different ways -- whether it be striking a supposed civilian or unleashing hell on a perverted Stand User.
Barbara is also noted to take pride in the bonds that she has with those that she calls family to the point where she is visibly upset upon reuniting with childhood friend Jotaro, who acts like they’re strangers. To those who disrespect that bond, she will act coldly and harshly towards. It is her love and pride in her family that drives her to join the Crusaders on their trip to Egypt. Along with her grandfather - Caesar Zeppeli - Barbara seeks to not only save the life of the only mother figure she has remaining, but to avenge the death of her mother at the hands of Dio's agents and solve her father's disappearance. To her, all life is sacred and she will do what she must to protect it. Even if it means putting herself in harm's way on the trip.
Barbara is the User of the Stand, "Pentacle Queen". Her Stand manifests her inate desire to protect people by allowing her to sense the different life energy within living beings. Each "signature", as she calls it, varies from person to person. Only Stands and their Users can have an identical one. Pentacle Queen is noted for its lack of physical strength and exceptional range of 250 feet/75 meters. Barbara is only one of three members of her family to possess a Stand since birth -- the other two being her father and cousin, Chihiro.
Where Pentacle Queen lacks physical strength, Barbara does her best to make up for with her developing Hamon abilities. Throughout the fifty day Crusade, Barbara undergoes training at Caesar's hand to prepare for the battle against Dio and to defend herself if need be. It should be worth noting that Barbara eventually learns how to use her Hamon to heal others' wounds -- the only one of Caesar's and Eleonora's grandchildren who is able to do so.
