Manifest Stand

Starting at 1st level, you are able to manifest your Stand. As a bonus action and 1 will point you may manifest your Stand and as an action you may command it. It acts on your command and can do anything you can do, including speak, hear, and even attack, but is unable to see on it's own. Attacking with your Stand deals 1d4 + your Strength (for melee) or Dexterity mod (for melee or ranged) of magical force damage.

It can move within a 65 foot radius of you, has a movement speed of 65 feet, and can pass through physical objects, and you can see though your Stand allowing you to command it if you can’t see it but you can’t see from your own eyes. Your stand is also immune to all effects that increase or decrease a creature's abilities, such as True Seeing, Sleep, or Resistance. These effects do not apply to your Stand and only can be applied to you, though you may use some spells to aid you in using your Stand, such as True Seeing.

As a note of reference, you may only use any of your other features should your Stand be manifested, unless specified otherwise. It should also be noted for reference that ordinary people cannot see your Stand. Only you and other Stand Users can see it.
