Wired Beck (鋼線のベック, Waiādo no Bekku) is a tertiary antagonist featured in the second part of the JoJo's Bizarre Adventure series, Battle Tendency, specifically in the "Climb Out of the Fortified Hotel" chapter.
He is a vampire created by Kars tasked with guarding the hotel Kars is hiding in and briefly battles Lisa Lisa.
Wired Beck is a muscular and tall light-haired vampire who has sideburns and a flattop. He wears a striped suit revealing the shoulders and the better part of the chest, held by two leather straps. He also has several metal rings at the wrists and a belt decorated by several beads.
When he utilizes his vampiric ability, numerous spikes protrude out of his body and he becomes bald.
Wired Beck is a misogynistic, aggressive vampire who firmly believes women are inferior and deserve to be harmed, having at some point murdered his own girlfriend. He is particularly irritated by Lisa Lisa, threatening to 'punish her' for her attitude.
Beck has a tendency to place "zura" (ズラ), a word roughly translating to 'okay', at the end of most of his sentences. As stated by Joseph, Beck also has a very grating tone to his voice.
Intangibility
Wired Beck can camouflage with objects and also phase through them. He does so with a door and sticks his hand out to mimic a doorknob in order to catch Joseph and Lisa Lisa off guard with a surprise attack.
Body Spikes
As a vampire, Wired Beck has complete control of every aspect of his body. His main form of attacking is by sharpening the hair protruding out of his limbs into spikes. Coupled with his unorthodox speed, Wired Beck is capable of lunging at his opponents and delivering them a lethal embrace.
Wired Beck was a fugitive convicted for strangling his girlfriend. After breaking out, he eventually became one of Kars's servant vampires. As a vampire, Wired Beck has the unique ability to grow spikes from all over his body.
Battle Tendency
Wired Beck first appears trying to prevent Joseph Joestar and Lisa Lisa from reaching his master, Kars. Literally emerging out of a door, he surprises Joseph who first believed him to have ten fingers on his hand, only to later realize that it was part of his power. Wired Beck comes out of the door and confronts Lisa Lisa, who uses her Ripple scarf on him before walking off. Joseph explains that Lisa Lisa has already killed him by exposing him to the Ripple, but before Wired Beck is able to fully question it, the attack takes effect and he dies instantly.
