{{Quote|The dirt fragments can amass together in a way that screws up my perception of how far away they are.|[[Paco Laburantes]]|{{Ch|TJL Chapter 10}}}}
This currently unnamed [[Stand]], belonging to [[Charming Man]], is featured in the ninth part of the ''[[JoJo's Bizarre Adventure]]'' series, ''[[The JOJOLands]]''. As recently as {{ch|TJL Chapter 14}}, its name has not been mentioned in the course of the story or in any supplementary materials.

==Appearance==
The Stand appears as sand and rock fragments with different colors. It floats around Charming Man's face and upper torso and has a texture that feels like real, coarse sand. Charming Man's actual skin feels the same way.<ref name="TJL10">{{Ch|TJL Chapter 10}}</ref>

When used to camouflage with the environment, the Stand perfectly replicates whatever is behind Charming Man with respect to the line of sight of those looking at him. It is so perfect that when he emerges from the camouflage it appears that he is emerging from the background, with parts of his body appearing as if they are fused with clouds in the sky,<ref name="TJL10" /> akin to a {{w|Cubism|cubist}} painting. Charming Man can selectively choose how much of his body is camouflaged in this nature, using it to attempt a sneak attack on Paco by hiding his knife-wielding arm in plain sight.<ref name="TJL10" /> He can also produce illusions of other objects within the camouflage, using the ability to trick [[Dragona Joestar]] into thinking a bird stole a watch they had used the [[Lava Rock]] to steal earlier, with the illusion only breaking when Dragona physically made contact.<ref name="TJL10" />
It's possible for Charming Man to hide objects under the disguised skin, such as a knife. When the disguise is no longer needed, the skin sheds off, crumbling back into sand fragments.<ref name="TJL10" />
 
The only tell for Charming Man's Stand ability is that the sand's texture can always be felt, either on his own body or on objects he has extended the camouflage onto; Jodio recognizes something is wrong when the group interrogates [[Leo]] and [[Leo's Girlfriend|his girlfriend]] and he notices that their car door is covered in sand.<ref name="TJL11">{{Ch|TJL Chapter 11}}</ref>
Moreover, the Stand can create illusions using its sand fragments. [[Dragona Joestar|Dragona]] sees a watch being placed onto a dirty napkin, which is then grabbed by a bird that flies toward Dragona. In reality, the watch had stayed on a [[Leo's Girlfriend|woman]]'s hand for the whole time, and the "bird" flying toward Dragona was Charming Man disguised with his environment.<ref name="TJL10" /> Charming Man additionally uses it to trick [[Jodio Joestar|Jodio]] into believing that three potatoes look like the heads of [[Wild Cat Size|cats]].<ref name="TJL11">{{Ch|TJL Chapter 11}}</ref>
