این صفحه فهرست انواع مختلف استندهای مجموعه‌ی ماجراجویی عجیب و غریب جوجو است.
انواع بر اساس توانایی
استندها اساسا بر اساس نوع قدرتی که دارند تعریف می‌شوند. در مبارزه، برای هر کاربر استند حیاتی است که نوع توانایی استند خود و نقاط ضعفش را بشناسد. باز کردن/بستن همه
استندهای نزدیک‌برد
These Stands are known for being able to inflict powerful and/or swift physical attacks with their bodies. Typically, a close-range Stand's destructive power and speed rank somewhere between A-C. They are also capable of movements requiring a high degree of precision as their User is directly commanding them. As a downside, these Stands have to stay within small proximity of their Users, though their own abilities may have a greater range. These Stands will generally obey their users' will.
The User of a Close-Range Stand generally prefers to confront their opponents directly, allowing their Stand's superior might to shine, while also bypassing their short reach. However, most are nearly powerless against an opponent who is either out of reach or hidden.
A Stand being a Close-Range Stand doesn't necessarily mean that its ability has a short-range. Some Stands may not be able to go far away from their User but have an ability that influences a large zone around them.
Long-Range Stands
Also known as a Remote Control Stand,[1] these Stands are defined by a greater-than average range. Some Long-Distance Stands are able to go kilometers away from their users, thus they are typically ranked A or B in Range. Moreover, the user is able to command their movement with good precision. On the other hand, the remaining link between user and Stand means injuring the Stand will damage the user as well and most of these Stands aren't a physical match for other types of Stands.
Users of Long-Distance Stands will typically exploit their greater range and precision to set up favorable ambushes and kill/injure the enemy before they can retaliate. The user may find themselves vulnerable if caught with their Stand far away from them.
A Stand being a Long-Distance Stand doesn't mean its ability has automatically a great range. Some Stands can fly far from their users but still only affect something close with their powers.
استندهای خودکار
به طور کلی استندهای خودکار، استندهایی هستند که در لحظه به میل کاربر خود عمل نمی‌کنند و در عوض بر اساس یک سری دستورات پیش فرض به طور خودکار عمل می‌کنند. غالبا استندهای خودکار از کاربر خود جدا شده‌اند؛ به همین دلیل آسیب رساندن به این نوع استندها باعث صدمه به کاربر استند نمی‌شود. گاهی مواقع حتی خود کاربر از وضعیت استندش بی‌خبر است و چیزی احساس نمی‌کند. این نوع استند چند زیرمجموعه دارد.
استندهای دوربرد خودکار (遠隔自動操縦型, Enkaku Jidō Sōjū-gata) می‌توانند در فواصل بسیار زیادی از کاربر خود دور شوند و از قدرتشان کاسته نشود. آن‌ها علاوه بر قابلیت‌های شخصی خودشان، از قدرت‌های فیزیکی قابل توجهی نیز برخوردار هستند، برای مثال می‌توان به سرسختی بسیار زیاد آن‌ها اشاره کرد. گرچه عملکرد بیشتر آن‌ها بر اساس یک سری رفتارهای از پیش تعیین شده و ساده (مانند تشخیص دما) است و به همین دلیل نمی‌توانند بر اساس شرایط، رفتار و رویه‌ی خود را تغییر دهند.[2]
استندهای پسامرگ[3] (死んでるスタンド, Shinderu Sutando) می‌توانند تا مدتی طولانی بعد از مرگ کاربرشان وجود داشته باشند و آزادانه از اراده‌ی خود پیروی کنند. این استندها به دلیل نداشتن کاربر هیچ محدودیتی برای حرکت کردن ندارند و از طرفی آسیب رسیدن به کاربرشان که مرده است، بی‌معنی است.
به غیر از دو دسته‌ی بالا، نمونه‌های دیگری از استندهای خودکار نیز وجود دارند؛ مانند استندهایی که نیاز است تا کاربرشان ورودی‌های ناچیزی بر روی آن‌ها اعمال کنند. استندهایی نیز هستند که وابسته به عاملی خارج از اراده‌ی کاربر باشند که در این صورت نیمه خودکار خواهند بود. آن‌ها ممکن است احساساتی باشند و بدون در نظر گرفتن خواسته‌ی کاربر خود، برای موقعیتی تصمیم بگیرند که در این صورت حتی کاربر هم نمی‌تواند کنترل آن‌ها را به دست بگیرد و حتی ممکن است که قربانی قابلیت استند خود بشود.
استندهای بدون برد
تعدادی از استندها هستند که برای قابلیت آن‌ها نمی‌توان برد تعریف کرد و بدون برد محسوب می‌شوند. این دسته شامل استندهایی هم می‌شود که فرم مستقل ندارند و به بدن کاربر خود متصل هستند. به این نوع استندها، نوع یکپارچه ( 一体化型 Ittaika-gata ) نیز می‌گویند.
برای استندهایی که روی زمان تاثیر می‌گذارند نیز نمی‌توان برد تعریف کرد؛ در نتیجه در این دسته قرار می‌گیرند.[4]
استندهای مادی
استندهای مادی[5] که میان طرفداران انگلیسی‌زبان به «استندهای Bound» نیز معروف هستند، استندهایی هستند که خودشان را به اشیاء بی‌جان مانند ماشین یا اسلحه متصل می‌کنند و با آن اشیاء آمیخته می‌شوند. به این ترتیب، جسمی که استند به آن متصل شده می‌تواند خواص ماورای طبیعی استند را نشان دهد. در نتیجه کسانی که کاربر استند نیستند نیز می‌توانند این استندها را ببینند. استندهای مادی فقط در چند مورد خاص فرم مستقل دارند و به طور معمول بدون شکل ظاهری هستند. همچنین هر چقدر جسمی که این استندها به آن متصل می‌شوند بزرگ‌تر باشند، استند مورد نظر قدرت‌مندتر است. بر خلاف استندهای مصنوعی و غیر انسانی، این استندها می‌توانند جسمی که به آن متصل هستند را تغییر دهند و شکل آن را عوض کنند (بعضی از کابران نیز این توانایی را دارند جسمی را که استندشان به آن متصل می‌شود، تغییر دهند؛ مانند چرخ سرنوشت).
استندهای مادی به راحتی می‌توانند با اشیاء عادی اشتباه گرفته شوند و به کاربر اجازه می‌دهند تا حریف خود را غافلگیر کنند. با این حال، نابود کردن جسم معمولا باعث غیر فعال شدن استند می‌شود و کاربر بی‌دفاع یا دچار آسیب می‌شود.
Psychological Assault Stands
This category encompasses Stands whose abilities specialize in attacking either psychologically or spiritually, meaning their primary focus is assaulting the mind of the User's enemies, be it in their thoughts or dreams. The nature of these Stand abilities can be described as the exact opposite of Close-Range power types as they do not require physically attacking to be effective.[5]
Psychological Assault Type Stand abilities will sometimes require certain conditions to be met, but for the most part they are next to impossible to defend against. Stand Users that are able to apply proper tactics that complement these abilities are said to be invincible.[5] JoJo6251 lists Death Thirteen, Atum and Tenore Sax as examples of this type of Stand.
Foresight Stands
These Stands have the ability to foresee the future and as such are particularly useful for avoiding incoming danger or directing their user to the best course of action. Stands of this nature tend to be very powerful when utilized with other Stands,[5] however due to the nature of Fate in the JoJo series, a certain amount of strategic planning is required for the User to maximize its benefits. JoJo6251 lists Tohth as an example.
Reconnaissance Stands
More literally referred to as "Search and Investigate" types, these Stands have abilities that allow the User to gather information on their surroundings.[5] They can be used as scouts or to directly seek out a specific target. They are generally not as powerful as other Stands and have limited utility in the thick of battle. JoJo6251 cites Hermit Purple and Hierophant Green as examples.
Form Types
Stands can also be divided by appearance into five great trends. They can be either Natural or Artificial, in addition to being Humanoid or Non-Humanoid. A fifth category based on appearance is made to include all Stands that do not fit into either of the previous trends.[6]
Natural Humanoid Stands
These Stands possess a humanoid form with physical characteristics that take on an organic appearance. Their human-like facial features allow them to express emotions. This category encompasses Human Type (人間型, Ningen-gata) Stands who closely resemble people. Although they are usually the size of humans, some Stands can vary in size.
Natural Humanoid Stands are usually able to perform tasks requiring a degree of dexterity, like grabbing something, and if powerful enough, can wrestle and fight using their fists and feet. These Stands would appear more frequently in early parts.
Artificial Humanoid Stands
While also having humanoid-like bodies, Stands in this category will often feature artificial or mechanical nuances that separate them from natural humanoids. Appearances that resemble dolls, robots, cyborgs or androids are applicable here. Their eyes are generally robotic and inexpressive and they lack proper mouths. Although they are usually human-sized, some Stands can vary in size.
Generally, Artificial Humanoid Stands are functionally similar to Natural Humanoid ones and can perform the same physical tasks. In the series, these Stands have progressively replaced the more natural-looking Stands and are now commonplace.
Natural Non-Humanoid Stands
This category features Stands that, while not human-like, are reminiscent of other life forms or objects in nature. This includes basic organisms such as animals and plants, but also more unorthodox concepts.
These Stands are considerably more varied in appearance and do not share any functional characteristics. Some animal-like Stands may fight using fangs or claws and some may take the form of a natural element impervious to physical attacks.
Artificial Non-Humanoid Stands
The Artificial Non-Humanoid Stands category groups Stands that look like tools, mechanical objects, vehicles, or other artificial constructs such as clothing. A non-official subset of this category referred to as "Materialized Stands", takes into account non-humanoids that are visible to non-Stand Users.
Because they look like objects, these Stands typically require the User to personally wield them. Unless they are a weapon of some kind, these Stands are not suited for direct confrontation and most of them are especially poor at protecting their respective Users.
However, there are a handful of Stands that functionally act as a suit, directly granting the User greater combat abilities.
Phenomenon Stands
Phenomenon Type (現象型, Genshō-gata)[7] encompasses all Stands that do not fall under the previous four.
These Stands may be formless, manifesting as a supernatural phenomenon, or simply giving the user superhuman abilities. They may also have an appearance so eldritch that it doesn't fit into the natural or artificial categories.
Tentative Types
The following are categories that are described by characters within JoJo's Bizarre Adventure, but are not officially named or documented.
Colony Stands
Colony Stands are comprised of multiple units, each able to function entirely on its own. The entirety of the colony constitutes a single Stand, and as a result, their power is divided. Similarly, damage to the user is proportional to the population size of the Stand; the higher amount of units, the less damage is transferred when a unit is damaged.
Thanks to their number, Colony Stands can be used to overwhelm an enemy by attacking from multiple directions, the User not fearing damage since as long as even one unit remains, they won't die.
Evolved Stands
Throughout the series, various methods are introduced for altering a Stand's base form.
A select few numbers of Stands have the inherent ability to undergo metamorphosis and evolve naturally, becoming stronger and allowing their user to unlock various forms of the same Stand, referred to as "ACTs". It usually happens to individuals with weak fighting spirit but the strong potential for spiritual growth.
The Arrow is also known for its ability to further unlocking the potential of a Stand, its effects seemingly determined by whether or not the User or Stand is targeted. In the unique case of Killer Queen, it developed a new ability after its User Yoshikage Kira was struck a second time. In Vento Aureo, it is revealed that when pierced by the Arrow, a Stand may evolve into a "Requiem (レクイエム, Rekuiemu) Stand", which possess abilities far above ordinary Stands.[8]
A Stand User may also obtain a new Stand through a process described in DIO's Diary as a way to "achieve Heaven". Although the method isn't detailed, it involves making several souls fuse together with a Stand User, and reaching specific gravity conditions.
In Steel Ball Run, a Stand can gain a new ability if the Saint's Corpse blesses its User.
In JoJolion, the process of Equivalent Exchange can be used in order to evolve a Stand, through fusion of two Stand Users. When Josefumi Kujo fused his body with Yoshikage Kira, his Soft & Wet adapted some abilities of Kira's Stand - Killer Queen, creating a new form of the Stand which is possessed by Josuke Higashikata.
Sentient Stands
Although most Stands do not show any personality or only simple hints of it, there are Stands that display a full-fledged consciousness separate from their Users. These Stands are able to think, analyze their environment, and converse with their Users, offering advice or commenting on their actions. Their personalities are diverse, but most sentient Stands follow the command of their Users regardless and act to protect them.
Some Sentient Stands qualify as automatic as they do not have Users and think for themselves.
Shared Stands are rare cases where a Stand can have several users simultaneously or over time, for various reasons. Some Stands naturally have more than one user at the same time (such as Ratt and Tomb of the Boom 1 2 3), while others were passed on, either because of the stand naturally changing its user or by another phenomenon involving the users.
