Stand Name: Spider Song

Namesake: The Spider Song, a 1978 song by Townes van Zandt

Type: Close Range, Automatic, Shared, Infectious, Temporary

Appearance: Spider Song appears as a white, androgynous humanoid of average length and build. It has black markings on its torso and a skin piece attached to its waist, making it appear as if the stand is wearing a coat. Its body is entirely hollow and features multiple holes over its body, with 8 holes circling around its head, resembling a spider's (More specifically, those of the Salticidae genus). Four thick hairs sprout out of its head, also vaguely resemblant of certain spider species. Webbing appears inbetween its unnaturally long and thin fingers.

Developmental Potential: E

Abilities:

Stand Infection: Any animal within the Araneae order within a 10-20 meter radius of Spider Song will immediately become a new user of the stand. They will also be granted human-like intelligence and a complete understanding of Spider Song's attributes, abilities and other users of the stand. However, instincts will remain mostly intact unless they cause hostility towards other users of Spider Song. If a user leaves the stand's area of effect, they will no longer be a user of Spider Song, and loses all benefits of being one. Spider Song is completely independent and will continue to remain active even when userless.

Telepathy: Users of Spider Song are granted the ability to interact with each other trough telepathic speech. Due to their new intelligence and capability of ignoring instinct, the spiders often barely use body language anymore.

Spider Inhabitance: Spider Song's body offers a habitat for spiders to live in. It is completely tangible and visible to anyone, regardless of whether they're a stand user or not. The stand, when not being directly controlled by its users, will automatically seek out food and shelter to provide for them. If anything proves a threat to Spider Song or its users, it will avoid engaging as much as possible, and only attack if there is no other option.

Silk and Venom Utilization: Spider Song will constantly absorb part of the silk and venom of any of its current users through unknown means. It can use this to defend itself when threatened by firing it from or injecting it with its fingertips, or for catching prey by spinning webs.
