—Foo Fighters, Stone Ocean Chapter 30: There's Six of Us!, Part 5

Foo Fighters (フー・ファイターズ, Fū Faitāzu) is a Stand featured in the sixth part of the JoJo's Bizarre Adventure series, Stone Ocean. Although its original ability is unknown, Foo Fighters's Stand DISC grants a colony of plankton a shared consciousness and intellect, allowing the colony to both develop its own personality and fully weaponize its unique nature.

Appearance

Although Foo Fighters's Stand itself has no demonstrated form of its own, it is visually represented in official sources by the forms the colony takes outside a host body.

Before and after inhabiting Atroe's body, the colony of plankton that comprises Foo Fighters takes the form of a tall, dark, robotic humanoid of masculine proportions. As a whole, the colony's form is designed to evoke an alien visage meant to resemble something insectoid or reptilian. It has been compared to a chameleon, a mutant, a space alien, and an alternate version of Hierophant Green. This form is mostly wrapped in the plankton's natural black, but a robotic skeleton is visible within the abdomen, forearms, and lower legs. The colony's hands are studded at the knuckles and dorsa, and its shoulders each bear a set of bands around the gurdle and a large knob opposite the joint. Its face is split by a large ridge that ends past the top of the head; various lines extending from circles around its eyes are etched into both sides. The colony's mouth contains only three large, fish-like teeth, and its eyes consist of a single light-colored line with black sclera.

Sub-bodies created by the colony retain most of its complete form's features, but feature shell-like eyes and a full set of teeth, similarly to the plankton they consist of; a propeller rests atop their heads, mirroring those seen on the tails of the individual plankton. Being comprised of actual physical plankton, each of these forms are visible even to non-Stand users.

As F.F.'s identity develops due to her bond with Jolyne, her colony form takes on a more human appearance resembling Atroe's while still retaining some of its distinctive features. Most notably, the Stand's head changes shape to mirror Atroe's head, mirroring the eyes and mouth of its host body and reducing its prominent ridge to a white stripe crossing its head (reduced to its "cap/hair" in the anime).

Abilities

Due to being extracted as a DISC before the creation of Foo Fighters, the original extent of the abilities of the Stand on its own are unknown.

As a unique fusion of a plankton colony and Stand, Foo Fighters is a proficient and adept fighter. At a physical level, Foo Fighters is more than a match for the power-type Stand Stone Free, being able to deflect its punches and overpower it. Although Foo Fighters is particularly resilient to physical attacks, she is very dependent on a constant water supply to allow the colony to survive; without a supply of water, the plankton that comprise Foo Fighters immediately begin to break down and die.

Colony Form

Foo Fighters's peculiar nature as a sentient colony of plankton gives her several abilities.

First and foremost, Foo Fighters's nature means that she has no physical weakness. There is no limb to hurt or vital point to strike to kill her, and thus she is impervious to conventional attacks. However, Foo Fighters can still be threatened by damage to the whole colony. Although fragile individually, the colony can muster enough strength as a collective to pry open an automatic door.

As a colony acting with a unified will, Foo Fighters can produce like-minded sub-bodies by splitting the colony into several parts. This ability allows Foo Fighters to effectively fight multiple opponents and act stealthily in the middle of battle. Even if the vast majority of the plankton dies, only one needs to survive for Foo Fighters to be able to fully regenerate, given access to a supply of water. With enough water, Foo Fighters can even cover a whole room and use its mass to attack.

Body Invasion

By infiltrating someone's body, Foo Fighters can take over their consciousness and have access to their memories. This ability allows her to wear their skin as a disguise to infiltrate human society for an indefinite period of time. Notably, Foo Fighters takes over Atroe's corpse after her initial defeat, and impersonates her for a period of several months until sacrificing her body in her fight against Whitesnake. She can also shape her host to her liking and contort itself beyond regular human limitations, to the extent that she can slip through barred fences unharmed.

Parasitism allows Foo Fighters to survive without a constant intake of water, but reduces her ability to multiply and disperse herself. Moreover, she becomes susceptible to the host body losing moisture by bleeding out.

Techniques

Due to a limited source of hydration, Foo Fighters's power to rapidly multiply is heavily reined in while operating inside a host body. Beyond letting the colony seep out of the body in small bundles for various utility uses, like creating extra limbs or invading tight spaces and nearby liquids, Foo Fighters has to devise new applications for her abilities on land.

F.F. Shot(Ｆ・Ｆ弾 Efu Efu-dan)

Debut: Stone Ocean Chapter 37: Debt Collector Marilyn Manson, Part 4 / Stone Ocean Episode 9: Debt Collector Marilyn Manson

Foo Fighters learns to shoot small parts of her colony as if she was using a gun, later incorporating plankton-composed pistol parts into her hand in the process. The bits of the plankton colony can also invade someone's body and take control or damage it from the inside. The shots have enough strength to pierce through skin.

Plankton Seal

Debut: Stone Ocean Chapter 51: Kiss of Love and Revenge, Part 1 / Stone Ocean Episode 13: Kiss of Love and Revenge, Part 1

Foo Fighters's plankton can plug up wounds and reconnect broken tissues. This can prevent someone from bleeding out, potentially saving them from death, and even restore the functioning of organs, such as eyes and fingers. She can also manipulate the plankton's form to match the appearance of the surrounding tissue. The plankton will remain in the wound until it heals through natural means.

The most unorthodox use of her abilities is demonstrated when Foo Fighters disperses the individual planktons through about a third of a cup of water, shaping it into a small mirror floating in mid-air.
