Throughout the chapters I tried introducing it slowly, although I just felt the need to do this.
Since it's really confusing, here I'll break it down for y'all.First, the name comes from the album(or song) "Born To Die" by Lana Del Ray. She is literally so amazing and there couldn't be a more fitting name for the stand.
Now about the abilities..
Well, the simplest way to explain it is just the ability to travel in time whenever you want. But there's a lot more to unfold. When you go back to a time where you exist, your spirit just goes back to that body. For example, In the year of 2038, you are 18, but if you go back 3 years to the time when you were 15, you will just be transferring your mind into your 15 year old body. I hope that makes sense🧍🏻♀️ (excuse my poor attempt 😭)
The other thing is when you go to a time that you don't exist. In that case, your whole body and mind are being transferred. Like in the story, in 2038 you are 18 years old, so when you go back to 1890 (a time when you aren't supposed to exist) you still stay the same. And now that you exist in 1890 and if you stay till let's say 1891, then you want to go back to 1890, then it's the just as the first example (only your mind gets transferred). So that's all you gotta know for the time traveling.
You've never tried doing it with someone else. Even if it most probably will be the same as teleporting somebody else.I don't think it's necessary to explain this, but I will. The other ability is teleportation. You can teleport yourself, other people and objects, the only thing required is physical touch.
Your stand can't teleport you to specific places if they are not memorized good enough. You can teleport to your local shop with accuracy since you know that place well. But let's say you want to go to a city you have never been in. Like maybe Moscow(imagine something else if you've been there, it was just the first thing that came to my mind), it's a big city and you are not familiar with it. Then your stand will teleport you to a random location. I think that's cleared out now.Here I'll list all the three possible ways that someone can kill you.
Also, sensitive stuff warning.
1- One hit kill. It can only happen if you don't expect it or when it's just in one blow (like slicing your head off, or just making you unconscious like Diego did previously in the story)
2- If the enemy tires you to that point, that you no longer have any will to keep on living. Well, I guess there is a chance that you're having a hard time with the enemy and this happens. (Though, you can teleport away if you think it's too dangerous)
3- If someone else has similar abilities. I don't think that I'm planning on putting anyone that has the same abilities, however I think it will be interesting. In the end, you and them will have a fight based only on your stands' strength.
If you have any other ideas, please don't hesitate to share them!LAST THING‼️
Now for the weakness. Remember that you can't use your stand all the time since it takes a lot, A LOT of energy. It can do ora all the time, but for the other two that I just talked about, it makes you really tired. So yeah, that's why you wouldn't want to use it all the time!That's all I had to say. If I remember that I forgot to mention something, I'll edit it right away. Anyways, I hope you enjoy the story. Have an awesome week <33
