Limp Bizkit
Limp Bizkit (リンプ・ビズキット, Rinpu Bizukitto) is the Stand granted to Sports Maxx by Whitesnake, featured in the sixth part of the JoJo's Bizarre Adventure series, Stone Ocean.
It is a pure ability Stand that allows Sports Maxx to turn himself and other life forms into invisible zombies.
Appearance
Limp Bizkit does not have a physical appearance. Victims of its ability will appear invisible, though they can be seen when coated in a material.
Abilities
Limp Bizkit is an unusual ability Stand as it allows Sports Maxx to control it even after death. However, once he expires, Sports Maxx's control over corpses makes him very deadly and difficult to defend against.
Invisible Reincarnation
Limp Bizkit enables Sports Maxx to create "zombies" from the corpses of the dead.[1]
When Sports Maxx activates Limp Bizkit, all corpses nearby generate invisible wraiths, including Sports Maxx himself should he die.[1][2][3] These "zombies" manifest as tangible yet invisible spirits that climb out of their corporeal bodies and attack anyone nearby upon Maxx's command. The ability works on anything considered deceased regardless of the species or the date of death, as both a taxidermied bird and alligator as well as recently deceased prisoners were all affected similarly and attacked the Joestar Group.[2][3] Sports Maxx seems to be able to use his ability to affect even partial remains, such as body parts or taxidermied animals, as shown when he created a wraith from DIO's Bone.[4]
As an added bonus, the zombies all have enhanced strength, the ability to walk on walls[5] and permanent invisibility.[1][3] However, they can be killed a second time through conventional attacks, with their original body mirroring any damage taken.[2][5] According to Sports Maxx, the wraiths suffer an intense craving for blood and brains, explaining their aggressiveness.[5]

Creation and Development
Hirohiko Araki states that this Stand's abilities were inspired from the film Hollow Man. When the character Sebastian Caine turns invisible in the film, his innards can be seen, and Araki wanted to draw people in that kind of unfamiliar form.[6]
