Human, Stand Variant

Physical Description

Jojo36.jpg
A group of Stand users, Hirohiko Araki.

On the surface, all Stand users are identical to normal humans. However, when in stressful situations, especially combat, they contort their bodies into impossible poses. All Stand users are capable of summoning a Stand, and tend to dress in eccentric clothing to match their spiritual entity.

History

Thousands of years ago, a man wished for the power of god. The next day, he discovered a meteor still hot from impact. He fashioned a set of arrow heads from this metal and became the first Stand user. Years later, generations of Stand users arose from those who had been pierced by the arrow and survived.

Society

Powerful Stand users are drawn to one another. This concept is referred to as “Gravity,” and is the source of Stand user society. The earliest Stand users that one meets will often form small groups, after which most will be hostile. Within small groups, one Stand user will become a leader with little debate. Beyond this, they exist almost seamlessly in human society, save for minor, unintentional ostricization by non-Stand users.

Human, Stand Variant Names

Stand users have names just as bizarre as their abilities. These names can vary greatly but are always considered weird in non-Stand user circles.

Male: Joseph Joestar, Jotaro Kujo, DIO, Rubber Soul, Hol Horse, Risotto Nero, Enrico Pucci, Gyro Zeppeli, Sound Man.

Female: Midler, Yukako Yamagishi, Trish Una, Jolyne Cujoh, Hot Pants.
