Heaven's Door
Heaven's Door (ヘブンズ・ドアー; Hebunzu Doā) (a.k.a. Heaven's Gate) is the Stand of Rohan Kishibe, featured in Part IV: Diamond is Unbreakable, and in side stories featuring Rohan including Thus Spoke Rohan Kishibe - Mutsukabeza.
Appearance
Heaven's Door takes the basic appearance of a small boy built with thick outlines or seams. It wears a long overcoat, closed to the end of its torso; a bow tie; and a hat reminiscent of a boater, the crown of which is invisible apart from its net/outlines, though it disappears the part of the head that it would cover. Lines emanate from the bottom and the bottom-outsides of its eyes.
Rohan may summon Heaven's Door with an air drawing in its image, and certain paper drawings. Heaven's Door makes its first appearance as a character in Rohan's "Pink Dark Boy" manga.
Abilities
Heaven's Door acts when Rohan's target sees it or an image of it drawn by him, which he may make in mid-air, with a pen or with his finger. It can affect multiple targets.
Book Transmutation: Heaven's Door's basic ability is to turn persons into books, pages unfurling from their bodies, revealing detailed and absolutely true information on their subject; including physical characteristics, memories and thoughts from their earliest to their most recent, personality, and any details on their Stand. Rohan cannot read his own memories, nor percieve memories he shares with his target.
A dying person's details are seen to gradually disappear.[1] However, Heaven's Door is effective on both ghosts and the undead (as shown on Reimi Sugimoto, and zombie-like spirits in Rohan at the Louvre). In animals, details comprise relatively literal descriptions.
Memory Removal: Removing pages, Rohan causes his target to lose any memories detailed there, in addition to a proportionate quantity of mass.
Write-In Command: By writing into these pages, Rohan may create artificial memories, or make highly effective commands. Rohan's target will obey commands written into them closely, even against mental resistance (despite a phobia of immolation, Okuyasu is forced to hold a lighter to himself). Otherwise impossible tasks may also be made possible (after commanding Josuke to fly backwards at 70km/h, he does, without external force). Rohan has also granted Koichi skill in the Italian language. Also, while Rohan cannot read his own memories, he may write commands for himself (writing on his forehead, he commands himself to repress all memory of the events of Rohan at the Louvre, though they return after the command rubs off).
Trivia
- In an interview, Hirohiko Araki mentions that if he were to have any Stand, it would be Heaven's Door.
