Osiris (オシリス神, Oshirisu-shin) is the Stand of Daniel J. D'Arby, featured in Part III: Stardust Crusaders.

Appearance

Osiris is a humanoid Stand; with large, muscular arms marked by lines of a vascular pattern; of a thick brow, and fingers capped by rings. It is only revealed from the chest up; mist obscuring a possible lower half.

Personality

Osiris represents the Egyptian God Osiris; related to prosperity and life after death.

Ability

Osiris is an Automated Stand.

Soul Removal: Osiris has the ability to take the soul of the one who loses against D'Arby in a bet.

Regardless of whether the person in question has really lost the gamble, the Stand will act as if the opponent had admitted defeat "in their heart", and remove the soul and compress it, because the loser's soul energy will be reduced to almost zero. If the loser bets the soul of another person, Osiris can take it even if that person is not present or agrees with it.

The souls are compressed by Osiris' fists and stored in a semblance of poker chips, which D'Arby keeps as a collection. A soul poker chip can be split to be used in a game, all of the parts being equal to one soul. According to Daniel, if the user dies so does the people from whom he took the souls.

Trivia

  • According to JOJOVELLER, its appearance is a rearranged African traditional picture, with mechanical parts.
  • According to Over Heaven, Osiris cannot create more than 10 chips from one soul, and the ratio of white and black chips corresponds respectively to the one of good and evil of the soul.
  • Its design and/or concept may also refer to popular characterizations of the Genie of Arabian mythology.
