Lucy Steel

Background

Lucy lived in a family of six siblings and was the second eldest of the bunch. Her father, Adam Pendleton, was a farmer who owned a small land in Oklahoma. At one point, Lucy met Steven Steel on the streets when he was penniless and drunk, listening to him mumbling about his plan of promoting a great horserace. Lucy encouraged him to run it and make it as grandiose as it could be with a continent-spanning route and a prize in the millions of dollars.↗↗↗

Lucy's mother, Alice, died at age thirty-seven when Lucy was only twelve, after which the family fell into misfortune. Lucy's father would later contract debt from the mafia and, being unable to bear having his land or eldest son taken from him, offered Lucy to them instead.↗↗

Following the Steel Ball Run Race

As Steven Steel's wife, Lucy doesn't involve herself in the race, but nonetheless accompanies her husband to provide him moral support. At San Diego Beach, Lucy keeps him company while he oversees the preparation of the race. In private, she is there to reassure Steven whenever the pressure gets to him and he cries. During the press conference, a journalist tries to inquire about her and Steven quickly shuts him down.↗↗↗

The true Goal of the SBR

During the 2nd Stage, Lucy formally meets President Funny Valentine when she brings coffee to a meeting between Steven and Valentine. A guard blocks her path, making the coffee pot fall but the coffee pot then mysteriously disappears along with the coffee only to fall from the ceiling thanks to an agent posted on the roof of the train. During the 3rd Stage, Lucy then eavesdrops on Valentine talking about the Saint's Corpse.↗↗↗

Blackmore takes the spine from Lucy, who seems powerless as she doesn't have a Stand, and tries to call the President. However, a spatial anomaly transports them elsewhere, cutting off the telephone line. At this point, a manifestation of the Corpse's power appears to Blackmore, allowing Lucy to shoot Blackmore and escape toward Gyro Zeppeli and Johnny Joestar. She meets them with the spine, explains how she discovered Valentine's schemes and begs them to help her husband Steven.↗↗

Lucy's Mission

In Chicago, the investigation on the traitor who interfered in Kansas City closes in on Lucy. Nervous, Lucy enacts her plan. Following Scarlet Valentine, the President's wife, she notices her unique tastes in literature and decides to seduce her. Moreover, Lucy meets Hot Pants, who has guessed that she is the traitor. Hot Pants also helps her, using Cream Starter to give Lucy two doses of an instantaneous sleeping agent as well as a ready-to-use disguise on her face.↗

The End of the Race

Lucy is brought to Valentine 's ship and tries to leave a message for her allies but Valentine sees it. Lucy expects his fury but Valentine surprisingly swears not to kill Steven. They subsequently depart for New Jersey, eventually taking a train.↗

After Funny Valentine is defeated at the hands of Johnny and the completed Corpse removed itself from her body, she is reunited with Steven. However, Johnny notices that the Corpse had just been taken by someone working with Funny Valentine and chases after him to reclaim it.↗

JoJolion

At some point after the Steel Ball Run race, Lucy joins the Speedwagon Foundation, an organization dedicated to the progression of science, specializing in botany and geomorphology. In 1911, Lucy visits the town of Morioh, where Johnny Joestar used the stolen Saint's Corpse to heal his wife of a fatal disease. After noting the peculiar nature of the ground beneath the town, she returns to America carrying a suitcase with the logo of the Speedwagon Foundation.↗↗↗

Later on, Joseph accompanies Lucy to her hometown in America, becoming her assistant in the process. Three years later, at the age of 68, she passes away from a lung disease.↗

Abilities / Stand

Funny Valentine identifies Lucy as compatible with the Saint's Corpse and catalyzes a fusion and metamorphosis between the two. A temporary Stand is created after the corpse fuses itself with Lucy, gathering inside her and taking over her bodily functions.↗
