What Stands Can Do
Form
- Usually appears standing near you, with superhuman physical ability
- Can be humanoid, non-humanoid, an object, or a phenomenon
- Only Stand users can see Stands, and only Stands can hurt Stands (except when they don’t)

Esoteric Ability
Every Stand has a wild ability, unique or shared, that reflects your soul: from making fire, to reverting entropy, to controlling time. Useful in combat and everyday life.
Drawbacks
| Drawback | Effect |
|---|---|
| Weak will | Without enough willpower and fighting spirit, you lose control. Your Stand turns on you and you sicken and die |
| Shared damage | Damage to your Stand hits you too (except when it doesn’t). Lose its hand, lose yours. A lethal hit to it will likely kill you, and a dying user means a very weak Stand |
| Range | Every Stand has a max range. Close-range Stands are usually strong melee fighters, long-range ones are weaker with other uses |
