Jordan Joan

''“If you think i'm just gonna lay down my life for you, or 'god' you are mistaken. I'Il kill you... Even if i have to do it with my bare hands.”'' —Jordan Joan, Chapter 24

Jordan Joan, originally Jordan Gherkin, is the protagonist of Jojopolis. He is the son of Fred Gherkin and Enola Gherkin and is introduced as a teenage drug addict.

Appearance
Jordan is a teenage boy of a somewhat-above-average height (177cm) with a semi-muscular build and long dark hair that reaches his neck. Jordan wears fitting pants with a leather belt and short leather boots. Because he gets arrested before being able to put any shirt, Jordan is shirtless for most of the story and stays like this until the epilogue.

Personality
Jordan is a courageous but troubled teenager. After the traumatic experience of being pushed off a cliff by his own father, Jordan spent his teen years abusing substances to cope. Over the years, he began to lose many of his memories and his sense of purpose - which was only reignited after he met (again) Sonny.

Despite his sad past, Jordan is generally able to keep a calm demeanor, even in the middle of combat. He is quick on his feet and can come up with unique plans to defeat his opponents on the fly.

He has been shown to be somewhat self-sacrificial if it means defending the greater good, such as when he shielded Johnnie’s body when they fell into the ocean, or when he was willing to lose his arm in his battle against Fred.

Stand
Jordan's Stand, Hurdy Gurdy Man, is able to stretch or extend any objects as long as it's on the periodic table, such as the ground or his own arms. He eventually obtains immense destructive power after unlocking Cosmic Wheels.

Personal Skills
Hand-to-hand combat: Jordan has shown to be a capable fighter, being able to fluidly block attacks and throw quick and strong blows. He also has some experience with getting physical due to playing flag football as a child.
