Silver Chariot
Appearance and Personality
Silver Chariot is Polnareff's original Stand. In appearance, it looks like a thin, robotic humanoid clad in medieval armor, armed with a rapier. It has an extremely thin waist, consisting of little more then a cable about as wide as the Stand's Head. It's sword is part of its hand in the Manga, its wrist fitting where the hilt of the blade would be,with the guard curving around it, though during the fight with Lovers it was shown to be replaceable with a normal hand when not in battle, but in the Anime, it is simply held. Like almost all stands, Silver Chariot is devoid of will or personality, serving Polnareff without question, though it does display a high learning ability, as Polnareff rarely gives it direct orders. Unlike most Stands, whose users can see through their eyes, Polnareff has no such ability, due to Silver Chariot's Armor.If necessary, Polnareff can also shed Silver Chariot's armor away, exposing its robotic form. In this form, Silver Chariot is even faster, to the point it can actually move fast enough to create seemingly up to eight doubles. These doubles are not illusory; the Stand is moving at faster-than-the-eye-can-see speed between different positions. As such, were all the doubles to attack at once, it'd mean that the Stand is attacking from all those positions simultaneously, giving it incredible destructive power. Similarly, because of this same speed, attacking the doubles would be futile, as the Stand can easily move away before being harmed.
The stands name is based on the tarot card, The Chariot (VII). [1]
Powers
Silver Chariot is a very powerful, battle-dedicated Stand: all its powers are destructive in nature or assist the Stand in battle. Silver Chariot is an incredibly agile Stand, able to attack enemies with barrages of sword slashes and thrusts before the opponent can react. It can also use this agility, along with its sword, to defend and deflect attacks aimed at it
Speed: Silver Chariot is an incredibly fast stand, able to appear in multiple places at once, this is not a trick, as Silver Chariot is actually moving between these spots at a speed the human eye is completely unable to see, and attacking one would be usless, as Silver Chariot would have moved long before the attack even reaches it. Its speed is great enough that it is able to skewer coins and balls of fire in an alternating pattern, deflect bullets shot at point blank range, and attack several times in an instant.
Power: Even though the majority of Silver Chariot's power is in its astonishing speed, it is not weak, as it is able to slice through solid rock instantaneously. However, the strength seems to lie mostly in the sword, as Silver Chariot is not strong enough to pull its user to safety.
Precision: Silver Chariot's speed is perhaps only matched by it's precision. It is capable of seeing, and slicing through, a bullet, is able to strategically break several items in a hotel room in order to make up for its weakness, and is able to skewer several coins and balls of fire in an instant.
Armor: Perhaps Silver Chariot's oddest ability is that it is clad in a heavy suit of armor. This armor lowered its speed, but it also prevented it from being injured, as Polnareff does not receive the same injuries that the armor does. The armor is shown to be capable of withstanding extreme heat without melting, however, it seems that the Armor can only be equipped and removed once, as it is never shown again once it is removed. This ability's trade-off seems to be Polnareff's inability to see through Silver Chariot's eyes.
Shooting the Sword: Silver Chariot's only ranged ability, this ability launches his sword with great force and precision, capable of reflecting off objects and striking with enough force to pierce a Human body. The major drawback of doing this, is that Silver Chariot can only materialize one sword, so Polnareff must retrieve the weapon before even being able to attack again
