Speed King
Speed King (スピード・キング, Supīdo Kingu) is the Stand of Jobin Higashikata, featured in JoJolion.
Appearance
Speed King has a humanoid appearance. It possesses a mannequin-like body and a human-like face with holes for eyes, as well as a fisherman's cap with two metal horns with various strings of equal length sticking out from both sides.
Abilities
Heat Production: Speed King has demonstrated the ability to produce an intense "heat" at a single localized point within a short radius of about 10 centimeters.[1] It would seem this effect only affects objects that Jobin has touched in some form. He has used it to melt the wax stuffed into his beetles after brushing them with a paintbrush and has given Josuke a nosebleed simply after offering some tissues to wipe his face with, threatening him with a practical embolism should the localized heat reach any other part of his body. This power can be weaponized and used to heat peoples' blood vessels to render them unconscious or even kill them.[2]
The Stand also has other hidden abilities that Jobin has yet to reveal.[1]
