California King Bed

California King Bed (カリフォルニア・キング・ベッドちゃん) is the Stand of Daiya Higashikata, featured in JoJolion.

Appearance
A toy-like apparatus, California King Bed is composed of a head and five smaller connected units, loosely representing a torso and limbs; all bearing a smiley face. The head is composed of what looks like a U-shaped travel cushion, both ends topped by a simple daisy-like flower; bordering a sort of smiley, surrounded by four large petals, with a cheerful open-mouthed smile (comparable to that featuring in Takashi Murakami's work).

Ability
California King Bed's ability to steal particular memories would be normally fairly harmless and fitting for the playful Daiya, but on an amnesiac like Josuke, it becomes rather menacing as Daiya could effectively brainwash him.

Memory Theft
California King Bed's ability manifests as a mock game, where whenever someone near Daiya is "fussing over" her, she takes away a random memory from the target. If somehow fusses over Daiya, a random memory is taken away from them. The "fussing over" may range from being concerned about Daiya's well being wary of what she does as an enemy. Daiya must be sure of the concern in order to steal a memory.

A chess piece subsequently exits the body through the eye socket or the ear holes, and the chess piece is embedded with a pearl inside of which fleeting images of the stolen memory are visible. The stolen memory itself can vary in nature: it may be the memory of a dream, or the memory of a particular event, or the memory about a particular subject, object or person. By touching her chess pieces, Daiya may perceive memories stored there. If a piece is destroyed, the memory is lost forever, and damaging the pieces hurts whoever the pieces are from.

Meanwhile the target will forget about whatever the memory is about, although the feeling of having forgotten something remains.

The only way to return the memory is to have Daiya step on the target's shadow.

Although it is harmless to the average person as the memory is likely to be mundane, California King Bed is more dangerous against someone with few memories. The amnesiac Josuke was manipulated into being seduced by Daiya as she kept taking away her memories.

Trivia

 * California King Bed's design was primarily chosen because Araki wanted to make it "cute and fluffy", since it belonged to a little girl.
