Unless bound to a specific object or automatic, Stands are attached to their User's body. The User then gives their Stand a name and uses it for various purposes.Ī Stand and the User usually share wounds. That individual is referred to as the Stand User. The Stand is created from someone's psyche, which includes not only humans but also other living creatures. A man once used rock from the meteorite to create a number arrowheads that could awaken the Stand of anyone whom they pierced. It is explained that the virus can infect people and for the most part kills them, but the few who survive are granted a Stand ability. Stands are connected to an alien virus contained in the rock of a meteorite that fell in Cape York, Greenland tens of thousands of years ago. Towards the end of Stardust Crusaders and in all subsequent story arcs, Stand names are references to musicians, bands, albums, and songs from American, Australian, British, and European music scenes only one Stand's name has ever referenced Japanese music. When Stands were first introduced in Stardust Crusaders, they were named after the cards of the Major Arcana of the Tarot W, and sometimes a color (the color of the Stands body), and then Ancient Egyptian deities W, with their designs often featuring motifs of those cards or mythological figures. Some can be incredibly powerful due to their User's outstanding grit, others can be highly situational because of a defining quirk of character, or even detrimental to their User if they do not have the necessary fighting spirit. As an embodiment of someone's psyche, Stands are therefore as varied as human minds can be.ĭue to their diversity, Stands are not made equal. They follow a loose set of rules, with no definite standard by which one can fully classify them. Beyond that definition, Stands present themselves in a large variety of forms and with different behaviors, if they are sentient at all. However, Stands may also derive through the exploration of possibilities and expression of the mind, in which case, only a large amount of mental strength is required. The only power that's truly impossible for a Stand is bringing the dead back to life.Ī Stand can also represent the manifestation of an individual's innate "fighting spirit" and embodies, to an extent, the individual's psyche. Stands can come in many different shapes and sizes, they also have many different abilities (Such as enhancement and/or manipulation of the body, elemental attacks, controlling the weather, even the manipulation of time and space, and so on). When first presented, the term is written as " Stand" ( 幽波紋 ( スタンド ), Sutando), with furigana W to change the pronunciation of what literally means " Ghostly Ripple" ( 幽波紋, Yūhamon) in kanji W.Īccording to Joseph Joestar, the name "Stand" comes from the fact they usually manifest standing next to the User: ready to act. Hydrogen armour slows down the user's FPS if you have a bad pc.Stands are defined as personifications of "life energy" (although it's later changed to "spiritual energy") whose abilities are given visual form.Players somewhat have a grudge towards White Wedding, due to it "breaking servers".For instance, White Wedding uses Ionic Bond, and then a Speed King user goes along with the bond and uses their stand's Heat Storage to damage the other ensnared victims. White Wedding's Ionic Bond can be used in many team attack combos. Ranged Stands such as The Emperor can stand a chance, as well as stands that have large AOE. White Wedding can trap nearby opponents in one spot, leaving the victims vulnerable. Upon pressing F again or the time running out, it will create a high damage explosion where the opponent is, with great knockback The stand grabs an opponent or object temporally. White Wedding unleashes a flurry of punches dealing considerable damage. Launches a yellow projectile that blinds the target for 7 seconds upon hit and deals high damage The stand surrounds itself on hydrogen-linked molecules, greatly increasing defense (x1.25) and prevents knockback but as a trade-off reduces mobility, also has slow regenerative abilities. If an oponent is hit it will do moderate damage. Upon hitting a player or an object, all nearby players and dummies will be attracted to that spot for 6 seconds, unable to escape. If this move hits someone not hit by R, it will instead deal 0 damage. If target was hit by R, if C+E hits said target, it will cause an explosion originating from the target who got hit by R.
