Atum is the stand of Terence T. D'Arby featured in Part III: Stardust Crusaders.

Appearance

Atum resembles a humanoid robot, and, in a similar nature to The World, is decorated with heart motifs about its body.

Abilities

  • Soul Imprisonment: Atum's primary ability allows Terence to remove souls from a person's body and store them in dolls, but before this process is done the person must play a game and lose in it, so his soul energy will be reduced to almost zero and Atum can make contact directly with the soul, removing it. Even if the enemy only gets a little shocked instead of admiting defeat, the soul energy will still be reduced, but on a less degree, only allowing Atum to hold the soul instead of taking it but still capable of indirectly affect the enemy's body. Atum can even detach parts from its own body and make them hold the soul without being close to the opponent. The dolls where the souls are kept are very much alive and seem to be able to talk and even ask for Terence to play with them, he even went as far as to dress them.
  • Binary Lie Detection: Atum's second ability enables Terence to ask questions to the soul of which a person must answer, akin to a form of mind reading. If the person lies, the color of their aura changes, allowing him to determine that they are lying. However, Jotaro reveals that the stand is only able to ask Yes/No type questions. When Atum detects a "Yes", the subject's aura flares up; when it detects a "No", the subject's aura points vertically.[1] [2]
  • Surroundings Control: Atum has some control over his surroundings, being capable of opening and closing holes on the ground to warp Terence to where he wants, but allows other people to use the holes to follow him.
