Bow and Arrow

There are six known Arrows, forged from a meteorite that crashed in Greenland, although even before then, its properties were known and utilized. The stone that the meteorite consisted of will catalyze and awaken the Stand of any living creature it cuts. However, if the one cut does not have sufficient spiritual strength, he/she/it will die from the resultant spiritual strain. On the other hand, the Arrows normally only seek out (and cut) those who can handle the strain to begin with. One could argue that the arrowstone meteorite sought out Earth with its many strong spirits, rather than striking the planet by chance.

The known Arrows are as follows:

  • Possessed by Enya Geil. Used to awaken Dio Brando's Stand. May have been the source of the shard that Jolyne received at the beginning of part 6. Enya originally had five of the Arrows, all sold to her by Diavolo.
  • Possessed by the Nijimura brothers' father. Later stolen by Akira Otoishi, then was taken into Speedwagon Foundation's custody.
  • Possessed by Yoshihiro Kira. Current whereabouts after powering up Killer Queen with Another One Bites the Dust are unknown. Both this Arrow and Nijimura's were given to their owners by Dio and Enya.
  • Possessed by Diavolo. Given to Polpo and became part of Black Sabbath. Shattered as a result of the death of Polpo and Black Sabbath. This was the Arrow that Diavolo did not sell to Enya.
  • Recovered by Polnareff after his fight with Diavolo. Later entered the possession of Giorno.

The location and fate of the sixth Arrow is still unknown.
