Killer Queen - мускулистый гуманоидный стенд, по высоте примерно такой же, как и сам Кира. В большинстве медиа, стенд изображается светло-розовым.
У него плоская макушка, по обе стороны от которой располагаются два острых, треугольных кошачьих уха. В глазах перед светлой склерой видны вертикальные кошачьи зрачки. Он не имеет носа, губы тонкие, а рот постоянно закрыт. Он носит тёмную, заклёпанную, кожаную одежду: перчатки до предплечья, пояс с подвязками на талии и обувь до щиколотки. Его большие пальцы перевязаны белой лентой, а на спине четыре коротких шипа. На плечах, тыльной стороне рук, перед промежностью, обоих сторонах лодыжек и верхней части ступней находится по эмблеме черепа с такими же "кошачьими" ушами, разного размера и отделки.[2] В аниме глаза Killer Queen загораются, когда он обретает третью бомбу.
Позже раскрывается, что на месте его живота имеется выемка, пригодная для хранения какого-либо предмета.[3]

Личность
Killer Queen отличается от других гуманоидных стендов, у которых есть лицо, тем, что его выражение лица почти никогда не отражает чувства пользователя, и почти всё время сохраняет нейтральное лицо с широко открытыми глазами. В качестве исключения, он хмурится на Джотаро, когда Кира понимает, что он пережил взрыв Sheer Heart Attack,[4] и замирает от ужаса, разинув рот, когда руки Призрачной Аллеи разрывают его на куски.[5] Также, Кира способен говорить через Killer Queen, что было показано с Роханом, когда Кира использовал Bites the Dust.[6]
Способности
Killer Queen — стенд ближнего боя, обладающий скоростью и рукопашной силой выше среднего.[7] Несмотря на это, он проигрывает в силе другим стендам ближнего боя, таким как Crazy Diamond или Star Platinum, поэтому Кира предпочитает скрываться от своих врагов или использовать набор способностей Killer Queen для победы.
Способности Killer Queen завязаны на создании разных видов бомб, которые способны уничтожать врагов Киры одним взрывом, делая стенд очень опасным. Вдобавок к сильной способности бомбы, Кира может использовать два, а затем и три вида бомб с разными силами, наделяя серийного убийцу широким спектром способностей в битве с врагами.
Создание бомб

Killer Queen может превратить любой объект, будь он одушевлённый или нет, в бомбу, просто прикоснувшись к нему.
Once a target has touched the object, Killer Queen can detonate the target by pressing its right thumb onto its index finger's middle phalanx, as if pressing a trigger on a handheld detonator; the charge immediately travels through the target's body before exploding.[8] Additionally, Killer Queen can blow up the charged target itself, as demonstrated with Stray Cat's air bullets during the final battle with Josuke Higashikata;[9] however, if someone else touches the charged target before Kira can detonate it, they will automatically be blown up instead, consuming the charge.[10] This can also be done through direct contact with Killer Queen or Kira himself, skipping the charging process.[11]
Matching Kira's desire to keep his murderous life a secret, anyone detonated by Killer Queen is completely incinerated with their body, their clothes and any personal belongings they were carrying being completely vaporized at the atomic level, leaving no trace;[12][13] however, it is possible for a victim to survive an explosion if it comes from a nearby object instead of their own body, though this is a rare occurrence.[14] Kira can also control the size and strength of Killer Queen's explosions[15][16][17] as well as what parts of a victim's body are vaporized, usually resulting in Kira destroying his victim's body except for their right hand to keep.[18] The effects of Kira's explosions on their surroundings vary; they generally do not damage nearby walls and floors,[12] but during Kira's battle with Josuke, they could potentially affect nearby objects and Kira himself, though this may be due to Stray Cat's own Stand power being combined with Kira's.[19]
There are several limitations to this ability. First, if Kira or Killer Queen cannot press their thumb against their index finger's middle phalanx to trigger the bomb's detonation, the target cannot blow up.[20] In addition, since this power is similar to incendiary bombs, it also cannot induce their explosions if there is no air, as demonstrated by Stray Cat disabling a bomb by creating a vacuum around it.[21] Finally, Killer Queen can only charge one object at a time.[22]
It is unknown if non-Stand users can see or feel the explosions, but they can see a victim of an explosion die.[11] Additionally, the explosion does not seem to generate much sound to anyone other than the victim, as Josuke and Okuyasu heard Shigechi call out to Josuke just outside of their classroom, but neither of them were aware of the ensuing explosion. Additionally, there were at least two other students in the same hallway as Shigechi when he was killed, but neither seemed to be aware of his demise as their backs were turned to him when he was killed and all evidence of an explosion dissipated within less than a few seconds.[12]
During the final battle, Kira places Stray Cat (ストレイ・キャット, Sutorei Kyatto) in Killer Queen's hollow abdomen.[3] Using Killer Queen's Primary Bomb to charge Stray Cat's condensed air bubbles, Kira is able to create virtually invisible air bombs (空気弾, Kūki-dan) to use as projectiles.[23] These can be detonated automatically through contact[24] or manually through Killer Queen's switch.[25] They can also not be deflated, as Killer Queen's ability stabilizes them.[26] Despite being unable to see the air bombs himself, Kira is skilled in determining their trajectory using basic mathematical skills;[27] additionally, Yoshihiro Kira can verbally help him direct his aim by flitting about the battlefield in his photograph form.[28]

Trivia
This Stand's abilities appear to draw inspiration from lyrics to the song Killer Queen – "She's a killer queen / Gunpowder, gelatine / Dynamite with a laser beam / Guaranteed to blow your mind / Anytime". Additionally, its appearance and eventual use of Stray Cat may be another lyrical reference, specifically. – "Playful as a pussy cat".
Araki includes Killer Queen's whole design among his favorite things to draw.[29]
From the Stands up to Part 5, he considers Killer Queen his 2nd favorite in terms of design, below Gold Experience and above Echoes. The stand was designed to incorporate both the darkness surrounding Kira and the sort of eeriness a cat possesses.[30]
At the 2019 Lucca Comics festival, Araki said that Killer Queen was his favorite Stand design-wise. [citation needed]
Its Stand Cry "SHIBOBOBO!" can be translated to "death".
