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,
It represents the Egyptian God, [[Anubis (god)|Anubis]], the god of the death in Egyptian mythology.

▲Anubis is an extremely dangerous battle-dedicated Stand whose multiple powers support him in direct combat and make him more formidable the longer he's 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. Even if the sword is broken, Anubis will simply remain active in the largest part of it, retaining its full power.<ref name=":0" />

Anubis is able to control whoever draws it, no matter how strong their willpower is.<ref name=":1">{{Ch|Chapter 193}}</ref>
When unsheathed, the sword unleashes a mysterious light<ref>[[JOJO A-GO!GO!]]: STANDS, p.40</ref> and the wielder will begin to hear Anubis speaking in their mind, encouraging them to use it against all in their path. 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=":5">{{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.
