A single string has the ability to sense when someone is touching it and can attack either automatically or at Kakyoin's command. Īs such, Kakyoin can control how Hierophant Green unravels, creating strong ropes or unraveling them into invisible strings. Hierophant using his body to ensnare enemiesĪs Hierophant Green's original appearance is not humanoid, but instead just a group of connected membranes, it is able to unravel itself into multiple long strings for multiple purposes such as acting like ropes, avoid damage without hurting Kakyoin himself (as shown in the battle against Death Thirteen) or weave out a network of sensitive strings that detects the enemy's movements, as during the battle with DIO. However, the Stand is relatively weak in direct hand-to-hand combat, as a trade-off for its great distance-based abilities. Hierophant Green is the very first Long-Distance Stand shown in the series, and it has a large number of abilities to assist it in combat and scouting. It represents the Tarot W Card The Hierophant W, which represents the bridge between Heaven and Earth, relating to the Stand's long-range abilities. Hierophant Green appears to not have a personality, serving Kakyoin without hesitation or question, even seeming to act as Kakyoin's mouthpiece although Kakyoin mentions that it hates wide open spaces and enjoys ripping things apart, such a trait is never shown. However, its armor is white-green in the colored manga and grey in the anime and games. All-Star Battle features a turquoise-colored version of it. Hierophant Green is consistently portrayed as being green across all media featuring it, befitting its name. Whenever the appendages glow, the Stand is priming for an attack, such as its Emerald Splash technique. Despite its emotionless face, it seems to have a human-looking mouth underneath its mask. Hierophant Green possesses a body covered in veiny lines, which is protected by a light-colored armor. It is only slightly taller than Kakyoin himself, though it can stretch itself to great lengths. Hierophant Green is an athletic humanoid with robotic features, such as the eyes and legs, but its true form is that of a long web of tentacles.
