Bigmouth Strikes Again: Difference between revisions

The material that comprises the Stand allows Charming Man to perfectly disguise himself either as another person or effectively become invisible by camouflaging himself in three-dimensional space. When active the sand forms a second skin around him and when dismissed it crumbles away. The illusion is visibly perfect; when he attacks [[Jodio Joestar]] while disguised as [[Paco Laburantes]], Jodio only discovers something is amiss when the real Paco arrives behind him.<ref name="TJL9">{{Ch|TJL Chapter 9}}</ref> The sand can also be applied to other objects, allowing him to hide weapons on his person or to make other objects appear completely different, such as when he tricks Jodio and Paco into thinking three potatoes are the decapitated heads of [[Wild Cat Size]].<ref name="TJL11">{{Ch|TJL Chapter 11}}</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 ithe appears thatout he isof emerging from the backgroundnowhere, with parts of his body appearing asto ifbe theyfused areto fuseddifferent withparts of the scenery at vastly different distances, even the clouds far in the sky,;<ref name="TJL10" /> akinit toalmost makes him appear as a figure in 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" />
 
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 before Charming Man attacks him once more.<ref name="TJL11">{{Ch|TJL Chapter 11}}</ref>
