{{Nihongo|'''Anubis'''|アヌビス神|Anubisu-shin|lit. "God Anubis"}} is the former [[Stand]] of [[Caravan Serai (Stardust Crusaders)|Caravan Serai]], and a [[:Category:Tertiary AntagonistAntagonists|tertiary antagonist]] featured in the third part of the ''[[JoJo's Bizarre Adventure]]'' series, ''[[Stardust Crusaders]]'', specifically the "[[Anubis (storyStory arcArc)|Anubis]]" story arc. It is also a member of the [[Egypt 9 Glory Gods]], a group of Stands representing {{W|ancient Egyptian godsdeities}}.
 
Anubis is a [[Stand]] bound to an ancient sword with the ability to possess whoever holds it in body and mind, forcing them to become its user in the process. As it repeatedly attacks the [[Joestar Group]], Anubis learns from its failures, becoming a stronger opponent with each defeat.

==Personality==
 
[[File:anubis personality.gif|thumb|Anubis gloating when Jotaro is wounded|260px]]
Following the death of its original user, [[Minor Characters/Part 3#Caravan Serai|Caravan Serai]], Anubis loyally serves [[Dio Brando|DIO]], both out of gratitude for freeing it and submission to DIO's power.<ref name=":0">{{Ch|Chapter 198}}</ref>
 
Anubis is over-aggressive, entirely focused on killing people. It relishes fighting because it memorizes the techniques of its opponents to improve itself and is confident, with reason, that it won't lose to the same technique twice. It often encourages its victims to wield it by telling them that they are the greatest swordsmen in the world, but it won't hesitate to abandon them if they are defeated or the opportunity to possess a stronger user arises. Anubis is very persistent in trying to kill Polnareff and Jotaro, its nature as a sword-bound Stand allowing it to pass off as a simple object. Even then, once it is defeated, it memorizes the abilities of the opponent and grows in strength and speed to surpass them. Even against Jotaro, Anubis was confident that it wouldn't lose three times despite having most of the sword broken into harmless shards. On the other hand, Anubis completely respects [[DIO]] as [[The World]] has proven to be beyond its level. Thus, it swore loyalty to the only man whom it could never hope to surpass.
[[File:8 OVATarot Anubis.png|thumb|150px|Anubis|alt=|left]]
 
As with many of DIO's minions, it is prone to gloating when it seems to have the advantage against its enemies, which proved to be its downfall against [[Jotaro Kujo]]. When cornered or put in an extreme disadvantage, iei.e. a situation it can no longer control, Anubis is shown to be fumbling and comically panicky. It notably forgot not to phase through a wall as it was thrown towards the Nile, which contributed to its downfall. As it sunk to the bottom of the river, Anubis became so desperate it tried to cajole the fish and crabs into touching it, only driving them away by doing so. When its situation became hopeless, Anubis could only lament its loneliness.
 
It represents the Egyptian God, [[Anubis (god)|Anubis]], the god of the death in Egyptian mythology.
 
==Abilities==
Anubis is an extremely dangerous battle-dedicated Stand whose multiple powers support himit in direct combat and make himit more formidable the longer he'sit has fought. Although it has to possess someone first to fight, once unsheathed and wielded by an unwitting puppet, Anubis is capable of fighting [[Silver Chariot]] and [[Star Platinum]] toe-to-toe and could defeat either in a straight fight. Even without its powers, the sword is very sharp and [[Chaka]] was able to cut through a stone pillar with it.<ref>{{Ch|Chapter 194}}, p15</ref>
 
Anubis is a surprisingly resilient Stand., Evenas even if the sword is broken, Anubisit will simply remain active in the largest part of it, retainingand retain its full power.<ref name=":0" />

===Mind Control===
 
[[File:Anubis powa 2.gif|left|thumb|260x260px|Anubis brainwashing Polnareff]]

Eventually, they will be completely overtaken by Anubis itself, allowing the Stand to control their body. Even other Stand users are not immune to this effect - if Anubis controls them, it also takes control of their Stands.<ref name=":5C197">{{Ch|Chapter 197}}</ref> Once Anubis leaves its host, they regain their senses, as [[Jean Pierre Polnareff|Polnareff]] being freed from it demonstrates.<ref name=":0" />

Despite what Anubis tells its victims, it does not appear to improve their actual combat skill. Polnareff noted that Chaka wielded his sword like a complete amateur; conversely, part of Jotaro's difficulty in fighting Anubis was due to Polnareff's sword fighting experience, allowing him to wield his new sword in deadly tandem with Silver Chariot.
 
===Selective Intangibility===
 
[[File:Anubis_powa.gif|thumb|230x230px|Polnareff is cut from behind a pillar]]
As a cursed sword, Anubis's oddestpossesses abilitya letsunique ittechnique manipulatethat whereallows it slicesto alongrender its blade intangible at will, enabling it to cut through opponents while passing through objects. When in its intangible state, the sword can pass through stones, walls, and even living beings like cows, without leaving any damage on them.<ref name=":1" /><ref name="gogo" /> For instance, when Polnareff hid behind a stone column, Anubis was able to slash him without damaging the column or even his victimPolnareff's clothes.<ref name=":2">{{Ch|Chapter 194}}</ref> It was also able to cut the handshand of a person whom it didn't want to be drawn by, despite the fact that it was still sheathed in its scabbard.<ref name=":1" />
 
===Development===
 
Anubis's most dangerous ability shown is to remember any attack that is launched against it and counter it.<ref name=":3">{{Ch|Chapter 195}}</ref> This is truly deadly if it fights someone it has already fought with; the same tactics will not work on it more than once, no matter how well-planned out it is. This, combined with its ability to control people, means it can attack the same person repeatedly, wearing them down by constantly remembering their attacks until they have none left to use.<ref name=":3" />
 
*'''Strength/Speed Development''': As an apparent extension of the above ability, Anubis gradually becomes more powerful as a battle goes on -; both Jotaro and Polnareff notednote that Anubis wasis becoming faster and stronger by the second during their respective fights against its possessed wielders.<ref name=":3" /><ref name=":4">{{Ch|Chapter 196}}</ref> ItWhen ispossessing unclearPolnareff ifand this[[Silver is an actual abilityChariot]], or if the Stand simply ''appears'' to be growing more powerful as a resultspeed of adaptingSilver toChariot's its opponent; either way, Anubis could have potentiallytechniques become oneso ofquick thethat mosteven powerful[[Star StandsPlatinum]] ofhas alla haddifficult ittime notreacting been defeated -to it would gradually become stronger, faster, and smarter with everyJotaro battlepointing untilout nothat oneit couldis defeatthe itsfastest wielderStand in a direct fight.

===Selective Drawing===
Anubis can choose who will draw it from its sheath - it is impossible to draw the sword until Anubis is being wielded by someone it wants to possess. Even 3 grown men pulling with all their mightstrength won't budge it in this case.<ref name=":1" /> This ability can apply to multiple hosts simultaneously, as seen when the Stand takes control of multiple rats,<ref name=":3" /> though whether this extends to humans is unknown. Additionally, it can move itself to a limited extent without a user, being able to sheathe itself after its user was defeated and cut another person while still embedded in a victim's chest.

500 years after its user and creator died, [[Dio Brando|DIO]] found Anubis in a museum. Anubis swore loyalty to DIO because of [[The World]]'s overwhelming power and was eventually deployed to Egypt in an attempt to stop DIO's enemies from reaching his mansion.<ref name=":0" /><ref name=":1" />

Anubis is first introduced when it is found by a farmer named [[Chaka]], who then draws the sword out of curiosity and becomes possessed.<ref name=":1" /> The possessed Chaka then cuts down his companions and eventually challenges [[Jean Pierre Polnareff|Polnareff]], who defeats Chaka after some struggle and takes the sheathed blade with him.<ref name=":2" /> A barber named [[Khan]] eventually picks up the sword and also becomes possessed,<ref name=":3" /> but is defeated by [[Jotaro Kujo|Jotaro]].

Later, Polnareff himself falls victim to Anubis when he accidentally unsheathes the sword while struggling with a passing policeman trying to take the sword.<ref name=":4" /> With Polnareff as its host, Anubis gives Jotaro a difficult fight, especially when it influences Polnareff to wield its sword in tandem with Silver Chariot.<ref name=":5C197" /> However, Jotaro eventually tricks the evil Stand into leaving itself open to a beating from Star Platinum, shattering the hilt and releasing Polnareff from Anubis's control.<ref name=":0" />
