King Crimson (キング・クリムゾン, Kingu Kurimuzon), quelques fois raccourci en K. Crimson (Ｋ・クリムゾン), est le Stand de Diavolo, figurant dans la 5ème partie de JoJo's Bizarre Adventure, Vento Aureo.
Il donne à Diavolo la faculté d'effacer le temps, et son sous-Stand Epitaph (エピタフ (墓碑銘), Epitafu) lui permet de voir le futur. Diavolo peut conférer à son alter-ego Vinegar Doppio une partie du pouvoir de King Crimson.
King Crimson est un Stand humanoïde avec une taille et constitution athlétique similaires à l'apparence de Diavolo. Son corps est recouvert d'une maille diagonale en diamant, sauf son abdomen qui est métallique et articulée comme une marionnette. Il possède des épaulières, des gantelets et des chaussures assorties de gemmes.
La tête de King Crimson est particulière car le sommet de son crâne est plat, la courbe de la tête s'arrêtant de façon abrupte pour devenir plate. D'ailleur, la même maille diagonale recouvre sa tête sauf le visage. Le visage de King Crimson est relativement plat et lisse, n'ayant pas de nez. Des yeux globuleux ressortent de trous d'yeux en forme d'amande et sa petite bouche montre toujours les dents. Mais le plus important est que son front est occupé par une seconde face ovale avec la même expression, apposée à une bosse à deux niveaux. Cette face a deux yeux globuleux et une petite bouche qui montre aussi les dents.
Cette seconde face est nommée Epitaph et apparaît régulièrement sur les fronts de Doppio et Diavolo lorsqu'ils prédisent le futur. La face d'Epitaph reflète souvent l'humeur de Diavolo et King Crimson.
Son design est inspiré du personnage de George/Kuato du film de science-fiction Total Recall, un homme qui a un frère siamois au niveau de son ventre.[1]

Personality
King Crimson reflète la personnalité de Diavolo dans son intégralité et d'ailleurs Diavolo s'exprime fréquemment à travers son Stand. Au sinon, son visage possède souvent une expression de colère ou d'irritation, bien qu'en de rares occasions, il montre également un sourire maniaque lorsque Diavolo a l'avantage comme lorsqu'il met la main sur la Flèche.
Pouvoirs
“
Une fois qu'on voit King Crimson ... à partir de ce moment-là, vous n'existez plus dans ce monde.
King Crimson est l'un des Stands les plus impressionnants de la série. À la fois fort physiquement et possédant la capacité d'effacer le temps et de prédire l'avenir, King Crimson est pratiquement invincible contre tous les autres Stands dont les pouvoirs n'affectent pas le temps.
King Crimson est un Stand de courte portée qui est capable de transpercer les gens d'un coup de poing ou de couper à travers eux du tranchant de la main avec beaucoup d'aise. Contrastant d'autres Stands à courtes portées, King Crimson préfère porter un unique coup décisif au lieu de donner des barrages de coups. Des exemples de sa force incluent la destruction du corps d'un diseur de bonne aventure en un coup de poing, ou un lancer de ciseaux si fort qu'ils ont pu couper le pied de Risotto Nero. Il pouvait aussi détruire un mur d'un seul coup de poing. Ses performances en vitesse et force sont comparables à Star Platinum et The World.
Much like other Close-Range Stands, its weaknesses are poor effective range (about 2–3 meters[2]) and permanence, making it difficult for its User to hide their identity against multiple foes.[3]
Effacement du temps
King Crimson erases time and foresees Sticky Fingers' punch
King Crimson's signature ability is to erase a given frame of time lasting up to 10 seconds,[4] starting from the instant the ability is activated.[5][3]
In the erased time frame,other people will be unable to experience anything that happened[5] and will retain no memories of it either.[5][6] After the allotted time frame, they will suddenly find themselves in the situation they were supposed to be afterwards.[3][5] There is, however, one instance where a person was able to see their double before finding themselves in their future position.[5]
On the other hand, Diavolo remains fully conscious during the erased time and only he can re-adjust his actions.[6] In the manga, Diavolo sees the erased time as a void filled with juxtapositions of what would have happened during this period in a fashion akin to Nude Descending a Staircase, allowing him to think out the next best action (for instance, when Bruno Bucciarati tried to punch Diavolo during the erased time, Diavolo saw Bucciarati's superimposed positions during his punch).[6] The anime adaptation has Diavolo visualize a ghostly red image of his foe's next move instead.
Diavolo is unable to attack, or interact with anything, while King Crimson's time erasure is active. The only exception to the latter is Diavolo himself, and any extension of himself, such as his own blood.[7] As a result, he often relies on the ability to avoid attacks and move himself into advantageous positions, such as enemy blind spots. Using his Stand's exceptional destructive power, Diavolo then directly attacks the enemy the moment King Crimson's ability concludes.[7]
Epitaph
Epitaph (エピタフ (墓碑銘), Epitafu) est un sous-Stand qui complète le pouvoir d'effacement du temps de King Crimson.
Precognition
From up to ten seconds,[4] Epitaph gives Diavolo and Doppio the ability to see the future by projecting it as images,[8] which are usually projected on Diavolo/Doppio's hair.[9]
Epitaph prédit une attaque
The image produced includes the general area with Doppio/Diavolo as the main focus, allowing either of them to see what happens around them as well as directly at them.[9] However, the visions are incomplete and only show the final result without the steps taken to it and thus can be subject to interpretation. In one instance, Doppio could see himself on the ground with a foot flying, but initially thought that the foot was his when it actually turned out to be Risotto’s.[10]
While the predictions seen by Epitaph are unavoidable, they still effectively warn Diavolo and Doppio against incoming danger, allowing them to steer events to minimize the damage done to them. When Doppio realized a pair of scissors would form inside his throat, he tore them out in order to save himself.[10] King Crimson itself can prevent the predictions from being completed if it erases the right timeframe. However, Diavolo can only change his own fate with this but not other's fates, as he can't interact with them in erased time (i.e He can't prevent Risotto from getting shot by Aerosmith's bullets, but he can erase time and prevent himself from getting hit). Likewise a Stand affecting Fate like Gold Experience Requiem which returns King Crimson's power to the "zero" state, can simply make the vision false as it steers Fate to its advantage.[11]
Diavolo and Doppio often use the forecasting ability of Epitaph to predict any incoming threat, making sneak attacks ineffective against them.
Much like DIO's "Time is frozen"/"And time resumes", Diavolo has his own phrases to go along with King Crimson's abilities: "Time has been erased" (時間は吹っ飛ばした。, Jikan wa futtobashita) for when he activates the ability and "Time, resume!" (時よ再始動しろ。, Toki yo Saishido shiro) for when he deactivates it.
All the JoJo video games that include Diavolo as a playable or in-game character have a different interpretation of his power:
In Vento Aureo (PS2), time being erased is shown by having the opponent's actions slowed down, while Diavolo moves at normal speed, a mechanic similar to how Made in Heaven's time acceleration is portrayed.
In All Star Battle, it acts similar to The World - through a number of abilities, Diavolo creates an erased time space (a special ability simply referred to as "Erasing Time") in which he is free to move about and the opponent is unable to take action. After a certain amount of time has passed, or as soon as Diavolo initiates an attack or ability, the spell is broken. King Crimson also acts as his dash and Epitaph can be activated to allow Diavolo automatic Stylish Dodging without depleting his Guard Gauge.
In Eyes of Heaven, Diavolo becomes invincible as well as invisible to his opponents within the erased time, causing him to gradually lose stamina. Other characters can still move and act normally but are otherwise ignorant to Diavolo's location. Furthermore, the Epitaph ability Diavolo had in All Star Battle allowing him to dodge instantly after getting attacked returns in the form of a skill (assigned to the Square button).
The anime adaptation portrays King Crimson's time-skip ability with a glitched effect, as if the animation itself has corrupted and skipped forward.
Concept art featured in the JOJOVELLER "History" booklet includes an early design of King Crimson, which lacks Epitaph (but still has the bump on its forehead where Epitaph would normally be) and has a facial structure appearing to be based off of a human skull, as well as what appears to be a hood (possibly inspired by the classical figure of Death).
