Appearance/Personality

King Crimson appears as a light red humanoid whose face appears to have a smaller copy of itself in its forehead (Epitaph), perhaps to mirror Diavolo's psyche. It never shows any personality but one can believe it to be very aggressive just like its user. The smaller face on it head is refered to as Epitaph and seem to possess Doppio's personality. The sub-stand is based on the King Crimson song, Epitaph.

Powers

Time Skip: King Crimson has the power to cause a time skip, where everything except itself and Diavolo is suddenly changed to be in the state they would have been a short time later (usually 3-10 seconds later). Time still flows normally for Diavolo, who can interact with the time-skipped objects for the amount of time that would have normally intervened (to Diavolo this appears in the form of the would-have-been intervening objects' states being superimposed on each other, in a fashion akin to Nude Descending a Staircase). The nature of the time skip is such that, for example, a bullet that would have hit Diavolo will suddenly be shifted to be on his other side as where it would be seconds later.

Prediction: Doppio is able to utilize a type of sub-stand of King Crimson called Epitaph. The same face that appears on King Crimson's forehead appears on Doppio's, and Doppio and also utilize King Crimson's hands as his own. Although weaker than the full stand, Epitaph can give Doppio a preview of what will occur in 10 seconds. This allows him to react and defend himself accordingly. As stated by Diavolo, no matter what, the prediction can not be prevented, unless interfered by the ability of Gold Experience Requiem. Epitaph can be also be used by Diavolo.

Super Strength: King Crimson was shown to have killed several people just by punching them right through their stomach with just one blow and above that it seem that a tremendous amount of endurance was needed just to take one hit from King Crimson without the person suffering a tremendous injury, even Giorno lost his entire arm do to one strike from it.
