In JoJo's Golden Wind, Cioccolata, wielder of The Grateful Dead, was a beast who took pleasure in slaughtering others.
Though both were beasts, Cioccolata and Obito were different types.
Obito's reason for becoming a beast:
"If this world doesn't have you, then I'll destroy this world... I'll create a world with Rin in it."
"She was once my only light. After losing Rin, the world I saw became nothing but a pitch-black hell."
"The real world is far too painful. What's wrong with living in the illusionary world of the Infinite Tsukuyomi?"
Cioccolata's reason for becoming a beast:
"Hehe~ It's fun!"
To deal with Giorno and the other protagonists, he activated The Grateful Dead's ability and turned all of Rome into a living hell. Tens of thousands died in despair as the mold consumed them.
Meanwhile, with his assistant Secco's help, he used a camera to record the entire process of people's deaths.
Rather than carrying out the boss's orders, Cioccolata and Secco were using that excuse to vent their twisted lust for killing.
The Cioccolata-Secco duo were subordinates so vile that even the trash boss Diavolo found them repulsive and feared them.
"According to the original description, once The Grateful Dead's ability is activated, it can spread without limit—
Because the mold truly exists, as long as someone gets infected, wherever they flee while still alive becomes the next infected zone.
Only by climbing upward can one avoid being consumed."
However, during the battle in Rome, Secco, Cioccolata's partner, ignored the mold's effects.
When Lin Qing had watched that part of the story, he had wondered about something:
Could Cioccolata control the mold so it would not attack allies?
If allies could be immune to the damage, Lin Qing would have fewer concerns when using it.
