Stardust Crusaders RPG

What's Hamon?: It's a martial arts technique based on controlled and very specific breathing. When the body breathes with that exact rhythm, the blood pumps oxygen in a way that generates energy identical to sunlight. That's why it's also called Sendo (The Way of the Hermit). It's deadly to monsters: Because it emits solar energy, it instantly destroys vampires, zombies, and Pillar Men. If a vampire like Dio Brando is hit with Hamon, he begins to disintegrate. It increases the user's strength, speed, and stamina to superhuman levels. It allows for rapid wound healing, walking on water, or even controlling objects and flowing through liquids (such as water or oil). The characters invent attacks with incredibly long and cool names, like Jonathan Joestar's classic "Sunlight Yellow Overdrive" (also the first Joestar to use Hamon).

What's a stand?: A Stand is the physical manifestation of a person's life energy, mental strength, and fighting spirit. It replaces the previous power system (Hamon or Ripple) and becomes a defining feature. The name "Stand" comes from the idea that this guardian spirit stands or materializes beside its user. They can take many forms. They range from humanoid figures (like Star Platinum) to objects, tools, vehicles, or even animals and gas.

Exclusive View: Only Stand users can see and touch other Stands (a rule that sometimes has exceptions depending on the nature of the ability).

Connection to the host: The damage the Stand receives is directly reflected in the user's body. If the user dies, the Stand disappears; if the user is rendered unconscious, the Stand usually weakens or ceases to manifest.

Unique Rules and Abilities: Each Stand has a unique and specific power (controlling fire, manipulating the weather, erasing time, etc.). Although they usually have a limited range from their user, there are exceptions with long-range or automatic capabilities.

How are they obtained?: Natural Birth: Some people are simply born with a Stand or with the latent potential to awaken one if they possess great mental strength. Bloodline: The descendants of someone who awakened a Stand can also manifest their own.

The fool (stand master: iggy): Its most familiar aspect is that of a four-legged animal that looks like a mix between a dog and the chassis of a car or automobile (basically a mechanical beast). It has muscular front legs and thick wheels on its rear legs. It also has decorative cables on its front legs that simulate the mechanics of a car. His face resembles an angry tribal or Aztec mask. It has between eight and nine white feathers with red tips that come out of its head. The Fool doesn't have a fixed physical or traditional spiritual form. It actually comes to life because Iggy controls and molds the sand and dust of the environment. Since it's made of real sand, anyone (even those without a Stand) can see it. Since it's just sand, Iggy can transform it into anything he wants. He's used it to create gliders, dome-shaped shields, and even to mimic other people's appearances (like when he copied DIO).

abilities: Sand and Dust Manipulation: The Fool has no fixed physical form or traditional psychic body. It is bound to the sand and dust particles in the environment. For this reason, anyone can see it, even people who are not Stand users. Iggy can change the color, density, and texture of the sand. He can make it as hard as a rock or waterproof. Shapeshifting: By freely controlling the sand, Iggy can instantly shape it into anything he wants. His most famous form is a hybrid of a four-legged animal and a car with wheels.
He can create useful objects like a glider for flying or a dome for defense. He can also create perfect illusions, such as when he mimicked DIO's body to deceive Vanilla Ice. Immunity to Physical Damage: Since the Stand is just a moving pile of sand, physical attacks don't do any real damage. If The Fool is hit or cut, the sand simply disperses and reassembles. The best part is that if the Stand is destroyed, the damage doesn't transfer to Iggy. That's why it's an incredible defensive shield.

Tarot card: The Fool.

appearance: It's a small dog of the Boston Terrier breed. It has a classic black and white pattern. Its muzzle, forehead, chest, neck, belly, and paws are white, while the rest of its body is black. The inside of its ears has a yellowish tint. Its face looks more like that of a real dog, with slightly protruding eyes, wrinkles or a hanging chin, and a rather serious or grumpy expression.

Personality: Antisocial and rebellious: He is extremely standoffish, rude, and hates being given orders. He didn't care in the slightest about the Crusaders' mission or defeating DIO; he just wanted to be left alone. Proud and arrogant: As the king of the stray dogs in New York, he developed the idea that humans are "enormous idiots" because they try to control everything. He believes himself to be on the same level of power as Jotaro and his Star Platinum. Prankster: He loves to annoy others. Jean Pierre Polnareff suffered especially from him, as he played cruel pranks on him (such as farting in his face or chewing and pulling out his hair). Despite appearing to be a selfish jerk who only seeks to escape danger, Iggy has a very deep moral code that he demonstrates when things get tough. He does not tolerate cruelty towards the innocent. and can be very loyal Yet hides it.

Likes: Coffee-flavored chewing gum (absolute favorite), Their freedom and independence, Mischief and chaos, Defend His principles with courage.

Dislikes: Bossy humans, Getting involved in other people's problems (at first), Polnareff (especially at the beginning), When people ruin his space or destroy it by force, Any attempt to restrict his comfort or move him from his place ends very badly for whoever tries it.

Silver chariot (stand master: Jean Pierre Polnareff): It is a slender humanoid covered in heavy, shiny silver plate armor. It has pointed shoulder and elbow pads. Its waist is very thin, resembling little more than a metal cable. It wears a closed medieval knight-style helmet with a small gem embedded in the center of the forehead. The lower part of the helmet has pointed projections that protect the mouth and cheeks. Through the eye slits, its eyes (with blue and iridescent yellow pupils) can be seen. Without armor: When he removes his armor to become extremely fast, his appearance changes slightly, revealing a golden design on his chest reminiscent of an exposed ribcage.

abilities: Ultra-fast swordsmanship: His strength lies in speed. He can unleash flurries of thrusts and sword slashes in the blink of an eye, so fast that it surpasses normal human vision. Afterimage creation: Because he moves at extreme speed, he can create false copies of himself (afterimages) to confuse enemies and make them attack thin air. Expert fencer: Wields a rapier with incredible precision and speed. Can block bullets, deflect projectiles, and make hundreds of thrusts per second. Afterimage creation: It moves so fast that the human eye cannot process it, creating visual clones of itself to confuse the enemy. Remove Armor (Armor Off): He can remove the heavy armor he is wearing. Doing so lowers his defense, but his speed increases to an absurd level, allowing him to outmaneuver even very difficult enemies. Blade Ejection: You can launch your sword's blade as a direct projectile using the hilt mechanism. This is limited, but it's useful for surprise ranged attacks.

Tarot card: The chariot.

Hierophant Green (Stand master: Noriaki Kakyoin): Has a athletic and slender build, slightly taller than Kakyoin. His skin is a bright green hue with raised lines, resembling a melon in texture. Partially protected by pieces of armor in white that cover his chest, shoulders, hands, groin, and shins. Wears a robotic-designed face mask. His eyes are yellow, artificial, and seemingly emotionless. Although he wears this mask, a human-like mouth is briefly glimpsed beneath it. Although it adopts a humanoid form most of the time, Hierophant Green's composition is not solid. Its body is formed by an extremely long coil or network of intertwined tentacles that Kakyoin can completely unravel at will.

Abilities: Emerald Splash: Signature and most powerful attack. Hierophant Green gathers concentrated energy inside its body and fires a rapid-fire burst of emerald-like energy projectiles with high velocity and destructive power, acting like a shotgun blast. Unraveling Tentacles: Hierophant's body is made of connected membranes and strings. It can unravel its entire humanoid form into a flexible network of thin, long tentacles. This allows Kakyoin to perform stealth reconnaissance, slip into tiny cracks, set up tripwires, or grapple across distances. Hierophant's Barrier: Spreading its unraveled tentacles across a wide area, Hierophant Green can create a sensitive tripwire web. If an enemy touches any of the invisible or hidden strings, the barrier instantly alerts Kakyoin and triggers an automatic Emerald Splash attack. 20 Meter Radius Emerald Splash: His ultimate tactical setup. He deploys a massive 20-meter web of tentacles around an opponent. Because the trap surrounds the target from every angle, making the Emerald Splash becomes virtually impossible to dodge or deflect. Marionette Control: A rare & unsettling ability where Hierophant shrinks or slides its coiled tentacle structure into a victim's body (usually through the mouth), gaining full control of the victim's body.

Magician's Red (stand master: Muhammad Avdol): It is a humanoid figure with a very muscular upper torso and robust build. It has the head of a bird (similar to a hawk or a phoenix), designed to give it a unique and distinguishable silhouette compared to other Stands. Its hands have sharp claws instead of human nails. Its legs have feathers and are often engulfed in flames.

abilities: Pyrokinesis (Fire Manipulation): Magician's Red can create and control fire out of nothing. It can melt solid metal like railway tracks or weapons instantly. The flames created by a Stand are invisible to normal people (non-Stand users), meaning enemies will only feel the intense heat and see the air distort. Crossfire Hurricane: This is Avdol's signature ranged attack. The Stand shoots a large projectile shaped like an Ankh (an ancient Egyptian life symbol) made of pure fire. It explodes on impact. Crossfire Hurricane Special: A variation where the single projectile splits into multiple smaller, fast-moving flames to hit a wider area. Red Bind (Crimson Bind): Avdol can shape his flames into glowing ropes or rings. It wraps around an opponent to physically restrain them. If placed close to an enemy's face, it can burn the oxygen in the air and suffocate them. Heat-Based Life Detector: Magician's Red can act as a psychic heat radar. Avdol can summon a small flame compass that points or sways toward living beings, breathing, movement, or Stand energy within a 15-meter radius.

Weaknesses: Water: Because its power is fire, large amounts of water or heavy rain can weaken or temporarily neutralize its flames.

Tarot card: The magician's.

Hermit purple (stand master: Joseph Joestar): Vines and thorns: It manifests as multiple purple/violet vines or brambles covered with small thorns. They emerge directly from Joseph's hands (usually around his wrists or palms), appearing as a natural extension of his body. When Joseph channels Hamon (Ripple) energy through him, the vines can acquire a golden glow or hue that blends with the purple.

abilities: Divination (Spirit Photography): Joseph can channel information into objects to find people or locations. By smashing a camera, a television, or drawing in sand/dirt, he prints a psychic photo showing distant targets (like when the group finds DIO). He can also project live video feeds onto a TV screen. Hamon (Ripple) Conduction: Because Hermit Purple is an extension of Joseph's life energy, it acts as a perfect conductor for Hamon. He can channel Hamon through the vines to attack enemies from a short distance or trap them. He can also wrap the vines around himself as a shield against vampires. Grappling and Mobility: The vines act like strong, flexible ropes. Joseph can control them to swing across gaps, catch himself during falls, or pull distant objects toward him. Restraint and Manipulation: Joseph can use the vines to tie up enemies or delicately type and operate complex machinery, like video game controllers or checking inside electronic devices for tampering.

Tarot card: The hermit.

Star platinum (Stand master: Jotaro Kujo): Star platinum has a heavily muscled, well-defined physique similar to human bodybuilders. features sharp, piercing eyes and long, flowing hair that blends seamlessly into a tall headband or headpiece rather than having a clear separation from the head. wears minimal clothing, consisting of shoulder guards, thick gauntlets around its wrists, a belt-like piece around its waist, and knee-high guards. Its skin color has tones of colored in shades of purple, blue, green, or gold. Silent and stoic: He doesn't speak most of the time. He only communicates with his famous battle cry: "ORA ORA ORA!" when he's throwing punches. He shares Jotaro's tough, cold, and calculating vibe. Jotaro described him as Extremely violent. At the beginning, he had a wide, sinister, and intimidating smile. As the story progresses, that macabre smile softens, and his expression becomes as serious and neutral as Jotaro's. When he smiles again later on, it's usually a sign that terrible violence will be unleashed against whoever angered him.

abilities: Super Strength (can easily destroy large artificial diamonds or break steel teeth), Super Speed (His blows are so fast they seem invisible. He can catch a bullet fired at point-blank range and is said to exceed the speed of light), Ultra-precision (can perform minute surgical tasks or catch tiny objects with tweezers in mid-air), Enhanced View (Jotaro can use Star Platinum's eyes like long-range binoculars to see details from miles away).
