Well this is pretty damn easy for me...considering my avatar is fan art of a character created by a band with two entire CD's based upon it.

Meet The Wraith, by ICP.

Its name based on a song: Erm...The Wraith. :p
Its power: The Wraith is the specter of Death, taking the departed from the land of the living to the land of the dead, be that escorting them to Shangri-La (heaven) or dragging them to Hell's Pit. As such, it has the Touch of Death, capable of ending any living being with a simple touch.

As such, assuming Dio actually can be killed, I'm pretty sure The Wraith would do pretty well against him. :p

Well I am the fist of a god (we're just going ignore the Erin) so umm. Could somebody explain what the hell your talking about? Seriously this is horrendously confusing for the uninitiated. and furthermore the fuck's a Dio?

Well for this stand thing Thunderstruck by acdc would be the first thing I thought of but then I found Jackal Queenston - Destroying Everything With God's Fist and figured that was a better fit. Well powers include unstoppable force and ultimate crushing capabilities. I mean I crush planets so that's gotta count for something right? With ACDC I would have the powers of lightning at my beck and call and that's all I got.

Well, since he's an anthropomorphic bat, I assume sonic-based powers would be fitting. Echolocation, paralyzing screech, that sort of thing.

Name: Sound Chaser
Named after: "Sound Chaser" by Yes

Well, I've got the perfect name for her. White Wedding by Billy Idol. Hey little sister.

I'm thinking different kinds of plasmid abilities, pyrokinesis, telekinesis, but only one at a time, relatively quick switching but they burn out pretty fast.

My avatar is the the standard stock avatar with the face of The Guy, the mascot of the band Disturbed... Which makes the choice of song really easy. I think I will go with Ten Thousand Fists.

As for the stand power, I want something that both fits the song and the avatar (aka, the stock Average Joe made into something completely different by overlaying The Guy), so let's draw upon the classic imagery of the Wyld Hunt: The stand itself is weak, but others who follow the user get over-layed by the stand so they all appear the same, as long as they follow the exact same goal. The more people follow the goal, the stronger everyone gets, both physically and power-wise, but the moment they deviate from the goal of the user, the overlay breaks and they are expelled from the group (similarly how one can join the wild hunt to escape being its prey, but if they refuse to hunt they would be expelled and become the prey again).

-Strengths: Crowd-based power; the crowd and the overlay hides the identity of the user; each person in the group gets exponentially stronger, faster and tougher the more people there are; topping out at 10k people where the group can warp reality itself to their will

-Weaknesses: Completely useless without a lot of followers; vulnerable to large-scale attacks that can knock out multiple followers (and thus weakening the entire group) until large numbers are reached; while having a larger crowd makes everyone stronger, it also raises the chances of the user losing control over the situation, at which point they lose the overlay as the common goal becomes harder to define

In other words, this is a perfect power for a leader who rather lets his minions do the clobbering for him. Since these kinds of powers are not really engaging, this ability would be best suited for an antagonist who could then throw waves of mooks at the heroes. Power-level-wise it would probably stand no chance against the truly broken powers of the big villains of the series, though it could possibly reach that tier by gathering ten thousand followers and using them to whip reality itself into submission. Then hijinks ensue. :p

Hmn, my avatar is a Tonberry from Final Fantasy. The Karma ability would be pretty sweet, to do harm unto others based upon how they harmed others. That or the stand is only as effective in fighting someone based upon how bad the opponent is.

Only song that comes to mind is "Round and Round" by Ratt.

Hoshou is my stand?

>_>

<_<

=_=

... I can work with this. I need to call a holy man and fill out some licenses first, though...

She will be known as Mothership, after the Led Zeppelin album.

Powers: She can summon the ACTUAL Hoshou as a showstopper like Forever could with Strength (except with PLANES!), but her general powers will be to let me walk on water and she herself can shoot arrows that turn into WWII-era Japanese planes!

Strengths: Great range, damage output, and precision.

Weaknesses: Low durability (as far as Stands go), low speed, little developmental potential, and only fights in defense of herself or others.


Really, she'd do poorly against any major villain.

My current Avatar is fanart of the Crawling Chaos Nyarlathotep.

Stand Name Lateralus

Ability, limited reality warping (fuck with the laws of the universe within a certain range)

I figure that the Stand's durability would be shit in order to balance out the potential OP ability

Given that he's a clone pilot I'd imagine he'd have the ability to create copies with the drawback of each copy becoming weaker the more he creates.

And his name would be Space Oddity.

Well, that's a picture of me there, so...

Name: Parabola [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_tcW-j7KFgY]. It's one of my favorite songs. Also, it's thematically appropriate.

Powers

Vicarious [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=B0plzPycp4k]: When I touch something, I can look into the objects past; who used it, who made it, and what it may have been made for. When I use this ability on objects like books or computers, I can see their contents; however, seeing is not the same as understanding, and I may not comprehend what I'm seeing.

Sober [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lJD0zIFLrKQ]: Same as above, but with living things. And similarly to books or computers, I can use this ability to access stored data; i.e. memories.

Holy Gift [http://www.peteofthestreet.net/sayz/C1151806467/E1494764863/]: Same as above...but with myself. And by reading myself, I gain knowledge of my past, present, AND future. Hear me out-if future me is accessing past me's mind, then past me must have the ability to access future me's mind, as well. And presuming that there's more than one possible future, I may eventually have access to what may be a near-infinite amount of accumulated knowledge. However, using this power for too long is disorienting, and can make me forget not only where in the timeline I'm in, but WHO I am. Not every Ron is Ron, exactly.

As for how my powers would stack up against other users? Eh...that's tricky. I imagine I would fight by putting myself in an advantageous position, or my opponent in a disadvantageous position. And if it really came down to fisticuffs, I could use Holy Gift to not only see how my opponent fights, not only how to fight them, but the most effective way to fight them. But...that might not be all that much of an advantage if I'm not very good at fighting, which there's no promise I would be. If my combat ability was really low, then I probably wouldn't last long in a fight no matter what I did.

H-he...hehehe....heheheheHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!

Oh man, you guys are gonna have FUN trying to fight my lovely little stand.

As for the name? Guts, named after the song "Guts" by Susumu Hirasawa.

Abilities are enhanced strength, speed, excellent hearing, crazy durability and a giant as hell sword along with an arm cannon.

lots of sharp things, energy blasts that can come from any-direction, worm hole generation so the sharp things can show up anywhere. Yeah, I'm good with this.

hmm ..., I guess her stage theme would do for a music based name. so

Sword of Doom.

Just because your Stand and my Stand have names from the same album; would your stand's reality warping powers override my stand's Holy Gift?

So mine would be Vivi from Final Fantasy IX. I was thinking he could be called The Black Mage, after Nobuo Uematsu's band, but after much consideration I think he would be called "Blue Blaze" (after the opening theme for the BlazBlue anime).

As for powers, Vivi is a black mage, so Blue Blaze would probably have an assortment of powerful black magic from Final Fantasy, namely Firaga, Blizzaga, Thundaga and maybe Flare and/or Meteor for some extra-powerful punch. The main caveat with the powers would be that I wouldn't be able to control these spells after casting them - for example, I wouldn't control the fires caused by Firaga, and Blizzaga would have the potential to freeze me as well if I weren't careful. Hell, casting Meteor would be a huge risk - it would be best to cast it, then run like hell.

Blue Blaze's primary strength would be its high damage output, and could easily function as crowd control and drench large groups of enemies in fire, ice, electricity, or any combination of the three.

Aside from the downsides outlined above, its primary weakness would be its low physical combat capabilities. As a mage, Vivi is virtually useless in combat if he can't use his magic for any reason (I'm looking at you, Oeilvert), and the potentially self-destructive nature of his magic, especially at close range.

I have no idea how this would stand up to the others. I really need to watch more JoJo.

Well my avatar is a lawyer so I can only assume she would fight like this

It's really hard to find lawyery music so I'm going with the stand name being Objection.

I've created a stand that screams!

..but why?

It's also excessively afraid of spiders. Not very useful.

Well, my avatar is me...

So... I'd probably be at a complete loss, especially since I don't know what a stand or Jojo's Bizarre Adventure is. Am I a podium? Whatever I am, I'd probably get knocked out, murdered, captured, or whatever is most relevant for Jojo's Bizarre Adventure pretty quickly.

I'm a quick learner, though. If I survived the initial shock, I'd probably turn into a strong, stoic podium.

And my theme song would probably be...
I like their blues inflected, classic rock sound.

I'm going to be super original and call my stand Stone Free and get this she can turn herself into strings,a mobius strip and what not. Yes this is a totally unique stand that no one has ever had. It'd do well against Kira and Pucchi if she could get him while he still has White Snake.She could probably pull some string based buffoonery to take down DIO. As for Diavlo she use her secondary power of crack shipping to call in Giorno to punch him for her.
