Rudol von Stroheim

"German science is the greatest in the world!"

- Rudol von Stroheim

Rudol von Stroheim is a core ally in the second JoJo's Bizzare Adventure, Battle Tendency.

Stroheim brought Robert E.O. Speedwagon in (who was injured by the former Ripple master turned vampire, Straitzo), and interogated him on what he knew about the Pillar Men. Stroheim reveals that the Nazis had acquired one of them, which he named "Santana" after the warm winds of Mexico.

Santana, eventualy broke out of containment, but with the help of Joseph Joestar, who just arrived at the scene to save Speedwagon, Santana was killed, but so was Stroheim. He later appeared before Joseph, his teacher Lisa Lisa, and friend Caesar A. Zeppeli, and revealed that he survived the encounter with Santana, that the Nazi used secret tech to revive him and give him cybernetic enhancements.

Stroheim's cybernetic body gives him superhuman physicality, a machine gun in his stomach that is able to shoot 600 armored bullets per minute, and capable of piercing a 30-millimetre steel plate, a micro ultraviolet canon that is able to shoot a beam hot enough to pierce Pillar Man skin, a robot hand that he can use as a projectile, and a hidden arsenal. Stroheim is also a capable leader and a highly trained soldier.
