CHARACTER INFORMATION
Character Name: Ermes Costello
Age: 21
Canon: Jojo's Bizarre Adventure Part 6: Stone Ocean
Canon Point: End of the series
Character Information: https://jojowiki.com/Ermes_Costello
Personality: "Revenge" is for settling your score with your own destiny!
On the outside, Ermes is one tough-ass bitch: She's a prison escapee; she swears a lot; she's sassy, impulsive and from Florida but on the inside... She's more or less the same. Ermes is one of those girls will trash talk you, settle things with her fists, and will NOT take 'no' for an answer.
In fact, it's that determination that is a key part of her character. Once she sets her mind on something, she will not hesitate. Her sister's killer is 'safe' in prison? Time to commit armed robbery so she can get put in the same prison he's in so she can kill him. A chance to win $1000 from a near-impossible game of catch? Sure, she'll cheat to get the advantage. Best friend needs to break out of jail and kill a priest? Yeah, she'll help.
Ermes' greatest weakness is her temper and it has gotten the better of her a number of times. Her back talking and sassing often gets her in trouble with cops, for one. Not to mention the aforementioned game of catch cost her liver until Jolyne saves her. However, despite being a rather reckless robber, Ermes isn't an idiot. She's actually a very pragmatic individual, stemming from spending most of her teenage years on her own and surviving on crime. A prime example of her pragmatism is when she planned on getting arrested. Knowing how the Green Dolphin Prison worked, she made sure to get a breast enhancement surgery so she could hide money for prison bribes and ensure that guards who searched her upon entering wouldn't find it. Not only that but she also had some money hidden in her hair to distract any guards who did suspect her of carrying cash. This pragmatism transfers over to fights, where she knows to not approach opponents before she knows their superpowers (such as her fight with Rikiel) and when she tries to finish off enemies while they're vulnerable so they don't come back to haunt them (like FF).
Ermes could easily be the star of a revenge tragedy- her motivation and personal character arc all stems from one horrifying event, the death of her sister. However, unlike most revenge tragedies where the hero lets the villain go because of something like 'morals' and 'not stooping down to their level', Ermes absolutely goes through with her revenge (and even gets the satisfaction of murdering the guy twice). It should be noted that Ermes does not kill Sports Maxx because of some moral high ground. Her revenge stems from raw anger and a grief that hit so deep that it killed her father. Ermes says that she knows that killing him won't get her sister back. However, Ermes wants closure for herself and, being a proud woman, she kills Sports Maxx for Gloria, who was killed and thrown in a sewer in an undignified manner after witnessing a mob hit. The incident shaped Ermes to who she was: a woman hellbent on killing the man who ruined her life. She understands what causes people do to terrible things, and willing to follow people who are willing to see their goals to the end like herself and Jolyne.
So what of her character after murdering Sports Maxx... Well, Ermes did not calm down. She becomes less cold and more willing to along with other people's plans since she finished her mission but that's about it. While a great weight was lifted off her chest, Ermes doesn't take a pacifist's route. She instead remains a smart bruiser who doesn't mind bringing the pain to whoever she thinks deserves it. For example, she was fully ready to rip off Jolyne's ex when it seemed he was going to betray them, and honestly she wasn't exactly bushed about the idea of exacting that violence even though she had never met that guy before.
Ermes is crass, curses near constantly, and can come off as blunt. She's not shy to talk about sexual antics and she's more than happy to call people 'freaks' or 'creeps' or 'perverts' to their face. It's gotten several prison guards pissed off but she's willing to call people idiots and be the (rather loud) voice of reason. For better or for worse, Ermes speaks her mind, though her rude way of speaking does soften around people she calls her friends.
And Ermes adores her friends. She is incredibly loyal to them. Once she realises that Jolyne, someone she was acquainted with, was willing to sacrifice saving her father to help Ermes get her revenge, Ermes becomes ride-or-die for her. With Sports Maxx dead, Ermes devotes herself to Jolyne, breaking out of jail with her and tagging along on her dangerous exploits, even though she was under no obligation to. Because that's what friends do. Help them save their dads and exact revenge on the bastard priest who stole part of his soul.
TLDR: Ermes is loyal, fierce and will chase her target to the end of the universe. Talk shit, get hit.
