A place for me to test things I don't understand

"T-This is... my body's moving on it's own...! There's no doubt about it! This has to be that Parrot's... stand attack!"

- Hol Horse

The unnamed Parrot's Stand is the Stand of the Parrot, main antagonist of Crazy Diamond's Demonic Heartbreak, a spinoff manga of JoJo's Bizarre Adventure.

Appearance
The Parrot's Stand has the appearance of a mechanical bird, slightly larger than its user. The head is small, with it having tubes protruding out from it, and a large ridge along the top. While its central body is unseen, it appears to have a thin torso with several appendages. These arms have several circular joints which connect to several circular reels. These reels can unfurl into long thin strips, similar to a tape dispenser.

The Stand's legs are also fully mechanical in appearance, with them starting from the center of one of the reels. These legs have another reels attached at where a knee joint would be, and they connect to large mechanical talons (similar to that of a large predatory bird)

Abilities
The Parrot's Stand, while still having an undefined ability, is a devastating long-range Stand.

Memory Punch Cards
The Parrot's Stan appears to use as its primary form of attack. These punched cards are released from the reels on the body of the Stand. They are then punched and inserted into the target, before bursting out of their body through the mouth, ears, and other holes. Their eyes also gain a dimpled texture, with multiple holes appearing in them.

These Punched Cards force the enemy to re-experience past events, such as when it was used on Hol Horse he began to relive his confrontation with Dio. These past events even force people to reenact the event, such as Hol Horse moving to shoot as he did in his confrontation with DIO. This can even be done to those who have not lived through the said past event, as Hiraoka was forced to relive the experience of Wilson Phillips, which caused him to crash his car.

Trivia

 * While no direct connection has been made, the eyes on the Parrot Stand's victims bear a striking resemblance to that of Moody Blues, another Stand that revolves around replaying past events.

"This test is abut measuring your trustworthiness... using this lighter's flame! Take it, and don't let the flame die."

- Polpo describing the lighter test to Giorno

Polpo's Lighter (弓と矢) (more generally the Lighter (矢)) is a prominent item introduced in the fifth part of the JoJo's Bizarre Adventure series, Vento Aureo. The lighter acts as an important item in Passione, as the lighter and it's subsequent tests are related to how one is able to join the organization.

Some of the Arrows and their fragments influence the events of Stardust Crusaders, Vento Aureo, and Stone Ocean; in the latter two parts, the history and previous influence of the Arrows is detailed.

History
The Lighter came into Polpo's possession at an undetermined time, though he most likely got the lighter around the time of becoming Capo, or when he gained his Stand Black Sabbath. The Lighter was used by Polpo for his test, if which completed would allow someone to join Passione. While most likely not the only way for someone to join Pasione, the Lighter and it's subsequent test were used to induct many people, including the entirety of Team Bucciarati.

Giorno's Initiation
The Lighter is first seen in the series during Giorno's initation into Passione. After his battle with Bruno Bucciarati, Giorno is directed to the Naples Prison, where Polpo is held.

Stand-Awakening Property
The Arrows fashioned from the meteorite will catalyze and awaken the Stand of any living creature they pierce, given that the target has sufficient spiritual strength. If the target lacks sufficient spiritual strength, contact with the Arrow will prove fatal; on the other hand, the Arrows normally only seek out and pierce those who will live.

In certain cases, such as with Ken Oyanagi and Tama, the wound caused by the Arrow will heal and leave a hole about the size of an average coin.

Effects on Bloodlines
TBA

Steel Ball Run
In a desert along the trail of the future Steel Ball Run race, a meteorite crashed into the desert and formed a mobile formation of land known as the Devil's Palm. Feared by the natives near the area, it was rumored that the Devil's Palm sought out future Stand users and imposed a heavy affliction upon them, from which the person would obtain a Stand.

JoJolion
Following Johnny Joestar's seizure of the Saint's Corpse and self-sacrifice, the place where the Corpse was used beneath the Meditation Pine is imbued with a similar power to the Devil's Palm, in addition to gaining the property of equivalent exchange.
