Bastet

"My body...! It's turned into a magnet!"

- Joseph Joestar

Bastet (バステト女神) is the Stand of Mariah featured in the third part of the JoJo's Bizarre Adventure series, Stardust Crusaders. It takes on the innocuous appearance of an electrical outlet, but once touched, it shocks its victims and magnetizes them.

Appearance
Bastet is an outlet-shaped Stand with a cable visible underneath it that can be placed onto any surface.

It represents the Egyptian goddess of protection,, and is the fourth of the Egypt 9 Glory Gods.

In Heritage for the Future, Bastet can be seen as an ethereal humanoid feline-headed bust when Mariah blocks or performs certain actions, similar to the Stand Anubis.

Abilities
Bastet is designed to turn people's curiosity against them. It has no fighting ability whatsoever and no use besides trapping victims, forcing Mariah to wait until her victims die alone. On the other hand, it is suited for assassination because unless Mariah exposes herself, there is no way to catch on to her.
