Zeppeli Family

The Zeppeli family is an Italian native family first seen in Part I: Phantom Blood and continues outwards always acting as companions to the protagonist, usually resulting in their deaths. This is slightly changed in Part VII: Steel Ball Run when Gyro Zeppli became one of the protagonists, though he too sacrifices his life for his Joestar friend.
