Paisley Park (ペイズリー・パーク, Peizurī Pāku) is the Stand of Yasuho Hirose in Part VIII: JoJolion.

Appearance

Paisley Park is a humanoid Stand with a generally female figure; Yasuho's hairstyle; one eye, on its right; and a face and body covered with various road map symbols.

Abilities

Paisley Park's abilities have not been fully explained and Yasuho is not yet entirely aware of it. Yotsuyu Yagiyama describes it as a long-range Stand, resistant to conscious control and of low physical potency.

Guidance: Paisley Park's primary ability involves assisting individuals significant to Yasuho in finding and reaching destinations more expediently, or escaping perilous situations. Paisley Park has manipulated a phone's GPS application and the results of a web search, and instigated a chain of events allowing Yasuho to bypass security clearance through mistaken identity. Leaving Yasuho, it is seen quickly assuming the place of Josuke's shadow, cluing him subsconsciously as to Yasuho's wherabouts.

The clearest physical intervention by Paisley Park occurs when it forcefully twists the ankle of a driver kidnapping Yasuho.

Synopsis

Paisley Park first manifests as a controlling force on Josuke's cellphone navigation application, seemingly sending him wrong directions to his destination of Morioh University Hospital, while in fact saving him from a mysterious assailant.

While Yasuho attempts to question Holly Kira, Holly privately notes that Yasuho's shadow reveals her Stand.

In a later instance, Paisley Park seems to manipulate events around Yasuho, allowing her to enter the hospital after being mistaken for a patient; and also seems to assist Yasuho in researching subjects on her phone.

Trivia

• Prior to this Stand's naming in JoJolion Volume 4, fans believed its name may be "Born This Way", as its debut chapter featured the other song in the title and the lyrics state "I'm on the right track", suggesting the direction leading component. In Volume 4, it was later revealed that Born This Way was the Stand of Kyou Nijimura, having been renamed from "Going Underground".
• Paisley Park seems either to have a mind separate from Yasuho, like Enrico Pucci and Whitesnake, or a particularly broad relationship to Yasuho and the world.
