“

This stone moves with no regard to my will. It's been like this ever since I was a kid... It has a power that I can do nothing to resist.

”

—Scolippi, Chapter 592: Sleeping Slaves, Part 3

Rolling Stones (ローリング・ストーン(ズ), Rōringu Sutōn(zu)) is the Stand of Scolippi featured in the 5th part JoJo's Bizarre Adventure, Vento Aureo. As its name suggests, Rolling Stones takes on the appearance of a spherical rock. It will predict the nearby death of someone in the vicinity and automatically follow them; once touched, it will kill the victim in a peaceful way.

Appearance

For the most part, Rolling Stones usually takes on the appearance of a normal rock. Its appearance will change to look similar to its victim, and afterward, will appear near said victim either in the form of a ball with the character kyō (凶, meaning "ominous", "misfortune", or "bad luck") on it or as a curled-up stone sculpture.

It is visible to ordinary humans, as an eyewitness reported seeing a woman holding it as she jumped down a building to her death.

In the colored manga, Rolling Stones is colored black. In the anime, its color is stone grey.

Abilities

Rolling Stones is an automatic Stand, as Scolippi can neither control nor stop it. It isn't actually malevolent as it shows a target their fated death, but the dubious mercy of instantly euthanizing them still makes it very dangerous.

Homing to Dying Target

Rolling Stones sinks into the ground, reappearing above Bucciarati to reach him

Rolling Stones spots a target fated to die soon and then begins to automatically stalk it. Rolling Stones follows a chosen person whose death is close, appearing and disappearing or even moving by itself until it touches the target. In truth, it can enter the ground and walls to move unnoticed.

As it follows the target, Rolling Stones gradually breaks down until the form of the target appears on it. More precisely, it shows a presentation of the target dying, exposing how they are fated to die, regardless of how close or far away the date of death is. When the target touches the stone, they will die, peacefully and without visible damage, as to "spare" them the pain.

Although Scolippi theorizes that breaking Rolling Stones or changing its shape significantly may change the target's fate, it is ultimately revealed that even the dust will take the shape of the prediction. Thus it is impossible to change the fate predicted by Rolling Stones, but breaking it will still stop it from chasing people. Those close to Rolling Stones without being sculpted inside it are not fated to die. Mista exploits this to purposefully jump down a building and come out unscathed.

This Stand gets its power from fate and moves by itself.

When someone not targeted by Rolling Stones touches it, several words or sentences such as Please kill me (オレヲ殺シテクレ, Ore wo koroshite kure) appear on their skin.
