Stand Abilities:
- Soul Stealer:
- This ability allows Pixies to steal someone’s ability to speak. Simply, Pixies ask its target for their name. If the target responds with their true name, Pixies steals their ability to communicate as long as Jin doesn’t call out their target’s name or the target’s stands’ name. If the target responds with a false name or doesn’t respond period, Soul Stealer does not take effect.
- This takes inspiration from folk tales about pixies and fairies. If someone were to fall in love with a fairy, the fairy can request their admirer’s name. If given the name, the fairy is said to steal that person’s soul and that person’s memory and ability to speak.
- Pixie Dust:
- This ability allows Pixies to spread 146 spores of dust-like particles from its wings. These spores can knock a person out if at least 10 or more have gone through the person’s circulatory system.
- This ability is up to 10 meters of range. The range can expand depending on the mph of the wind at the moment it’s being used.
- This ability will affect anyone within a 10-meter range.
- Whimsical Illusions:
- Pixies uses its multiple fays to create illusions that obstruct or alter its target’s vision.
- This ability cannot manifest physical objects, only visual things.
- This ability is only effective within a 5-meter radius.
- Fay’s blessing:
- Pixies combine into one fairy-like creature and use their combined strength to heal Jin by blowing him a kiss.
- This allows Jin to gain some stamina and strength.
- Used as a last resort in battle.
Fun Facts:
When Jin was born, he was orphaned. A mysterious man found him in the woods of a mountain. The man decided to take Jin in as an apprentice and took him to a temple. After 10 years, Jin grew into a healthy young boy. The man decided to teach Jin the art of Kung Fu and Karate. After 5 years of training, Jin’s new sensei left on a mission to teach others in a faraway village. After 3 and a half months of his Sensei being gone, Jin summarized that his Sensei had died. So, at 15 years old, he took it upon himself to master the techniques his sensei had taught him.
After 2 years of difficult and grueling training and discipline, he had grown into a silent, yet deadly master of the martial arts. One day, he decided to take his training into the wilderness. He found a solitary and undiscovered, translucent blue pond surrounded by forest to train. He noticed a waterfall supplying the water to the said pond and wanted to shower in it. He jumped into the pond and swam near the waterfall, but something seemed… off. He noticed a faint glow from inside it and discovered a hidden cave behind the waterfall. After going inside, he found a secluded shrine within the cave. Thereupon the shrine lay a unique-looking arrowhead. He approached the shine and noticed there was a spear with a long red feather on it. He grabbed the spear and felt… whole. After holding the spear, he fashioned a strap from some vines to attach it to his back.
He got closer to the shrine and reached out to pick up the arrowhead. As soon as his skin made contact with the metal, it cut him deep. He jumped back and winced. The arrowhead started to glow and before he knew it, the world had turned black. He experienced several confusing visions but one stood out to him. He was in a mystical and serene grove surrounded by tiny glowing particles. He reached out to touch one and heard a voice. It was a whimsical and warm voice,
“Jin… Jin…” It spoke to him. He was surprised and backed away from the glowing particle. “Who… Who’s there?” He called out. “Jin Castellanos, please do not be afraid. I am here to protect you. You have the blood of the chosen ones. Whatever you wish me to do, shall happen. I… am Pixies.” It spoke, and the vision ended.
Jin woke up back at his Sensei’s temple utterly confused. “P-Pixies?” He muttered to himself as he rubbed his head. “What the heck was that?” He mumbled groggily, “And what is on my back…” He felt something at his back and reached to see what it was. It was the spear he found at the shrine in the cave. “It-It was real? But how did I get here?” He found the arrowhead from the shrine in his pocket and made it into an earring that he’d wear every day. He got a headache and decided to lie down. “Oof, my head.” He complained and closed his eyes. That was the day he gained his Stand, Pixies. Little did he know, others sought the very arrowhead that gave Jin his Stand. Soon, he would be in a world of relentless battle and the supernatural.
The next year (now 18), he had found himself aimlessly wandering the ancient labyrinth known as Italy. He got caught up in a tourist scam and had his luggage stolen, namely his spear. After putting the scammers into their place, a strange presence appeared. It wasn’t just out of place, it was unnatural, unnerving. This presence was none other than Giorgianna “Giorgio” Giovanna, the notorious sister of Giorno Giovanna, the boss of the country’s most dangerous mafia family. After a while of them questioning each-other, Nova had brought him into Naples, the HQ of Passione. Giorno welcomed him into the mafia family, and now he is Giorgio’s partner in crime as part of La Squadra.
