(Former) Occupation(s): Pacific Bay PD Junior Officer (promoted), Detective, Honorary Conspiracy Crusader, Stand User

Appearance: Amy now has her hair tied to a ponytail and sports a much more athletic build. Having grown older, Amy now wears a different attire, which is based on her Stand: a deep blue buttoned jacket with gold zippers (located on her clavicles that extend to her upper back, shoulders, neck, and upper and lower arms) and white fur that comes with a gold Pacific Bay PD badge and a matching rank tag that says “DETECTIVE”, a red blazer with a gold zipper over a white buttoned shirt with various black spoon-like dots and green swirls, black pants held on by a brown and blue belt with a gold streak, and black shoes with gold zippers each on them. Sometimes, Amy can put on white smart glasses with transparent blue lenses to contact others and make a list of objectives. She also retains her gold pendant and usual red lipstick and holsters her gun on her left knee.

In battle, Amy wields a riot shotgun with an extendable protrusion to use as a melee weapon, which she uses with her left hand, along with an stock with an axe head at the end that fits with the shotgun to make a combination of the two. She also wields the Soul Sealer, which is a green clawed gauntlet that is of arm-length with an orange stone that somehow fuels it.

Personality: Amy has noticeably matured over the years as a police officer, growing into a much confident and conscientious detective, even acting as a serious leader in various situations and fights with her allies and acquaintances. She is also noticeably acts determined and righteous in her purpose as a police officer and will not hesitate to go as far to fight those who would attempt to break the law for destructive purposes. After having to deal with various tragedies in her life, which include the death of her friends, losing the trust of others and being spited on and disrespected, betrayal by the people she trusted, and seeing them being manipulated by others to murder people (including her friends, former or not) for their own selfish goals, Amy is shown to be much more violent and brutal against her enemies and very distrusting to suspects, having grown weary and furious of how everybody’s lives are continuously being eradicated and ruined by those who think of murder and various other crimes. Adding up to her violence is her bad temper, coming from everything that happened to her before, which she usually hides to also hide her weakness and immorality, but makes her a deadly opponent when it comes to provoking her by doing something immoral for no apparent reason other than for fun and pleasure. Her temper is not unlike Kevin Ripley’s (who holds back his anger, but shows no mercy to anyone attempting to commit crimes against humanity), David Jones’ (who was pissed off by ROZETTA enough to obliterate her into pieces after everything what happened to him and the police) and Kaden Kaskade’s (who will attack or destroy antagonists insulting his handsome face and is very unforgiving to those who kill his friends), as like them, she has a miserable life during her tenure with the police and cannot bear herself to be used or played out again, which explains her distrusting and unforgiving behavior to suspicious suspects and seemingly ruthless methods against opponents. Wielding her Stand, Amy always shows bravery and preparedness in her battles, not flinching when she is threatened and/or struck at, being a step ahead against enemies, and gaining a head start to gain an advantage.

Having been an experienced detective like her late partner, Amy displays a violent, cold, and ruthless side (unlike Frank, who can be angry and aggressive at times, but still has kept his morals and loyalty to the police even when Hope seems to be lost) when it comes to antagonists, and will use any lethal force if necessary with any little reason to hold back depending on the circumstances: such as almost crushing Clarisse with a train before dismembering her into pieces, chopping and nearly unzipping Cosyste’s neck to cripple her into falling down a set of stairs, spiritually weakening Lori and Leni by grabbing their souls to freely attack them at will, heavily incapacitating both Mikhail and Alice in a one-against-two fight despite their cunningness and powerful Stands enhanced by their full potential, impaling and then electrocuting Saber (although the attack is mitigated by Saber’s force field at the last minute), and bursting a car tire to deafen Liquid. As a skilled and brash fighter, Amy is unfazed of empty threats, does what she can to protect any innocent bystanders even though she damages their property on missions, keeps her calm even during a desperate looking fight, and stay cautious of enemies, even if they don’t appear as much of a threat, but she is no stranger to making rookie mistakes, as she misconstrued Lori and Leni as thieving delinquents, isn’t clear of few of the disadvantages of her Stand despite training with it for some time (which almost led to her defeat), always realizes something wrong after what happened, dropping and leaving objects by accident (though her Stand picks them up for her), and making a move too late while attempting to counter or make surprise attacks. Amy also looks down on spiteful violence, revenge killing, irrational murder, extreme sadism, collateral damage, and vigilantism, going back on her praise on a Clarisse (who was revealed to be a clone later on) and labeling her as a “scumbag” who will always fail no matter what when the antagonist goes as far to kill her friends out of spite, and threatening Liquid with her Stand upon confronting her again and showing no qualms in harming her or any respect she deserves despite her physical age, knowing very well that she’s a clone. Although not frequently, she displays mild hypocrisy, as she doesn’t want to fall deep into the dark side like her former friends and family, despite the fact that she commits brutal “eye-for-an-eye” methods against enemies that are no different from the killers she arrested, even though these attacks were merely used for incapacitation but are far worse when Amy uses her Stand.

In spite of her aggressive tactics, Amy shows a kind, caring, and friendly side to children, teens (sometimes, though she may be rough or serious on them if they try to antagonize her, and become hostile if they go too far, even going as far to go from questioning to torture at them), and her friends, expressing delight of seeing Rook again and occasionally socializing and hanging out with his friends like Jones, performing a handshake with Rita, conversing with Gloria about family, and usually helping out Grimsborough’s citizens. These two contrasting sides culminate in Amy’s decision to walk down the path she doesn’t believes in, but what she chooses, which marks in her decision to spend the rest of her days protecting the people all she considers as important and worth living from very powerful and threatening enemies, much like how Frank gave his life to save Pacific Bay from Albert Tesla.

Amy has a strong relationship with the people she teams up with, most particularly Rook, being stern but fair and giving praise whenever she think its earned and encouraging others to improve. Because of their relationship despite being from different organizations, they always trust each other and are always willing to take down a much bigger threat. However, Amy isn’t above keeping secrets from them, not even telling them to Rook or his partners. In fact, Amy hides the surprising truth that thanks to her putting the law above her family, her brother Duncan subsequently escaped from prison after an attempt on his life by their mother, whose hatred and jealousy led her to unintentionally give Yukianesa to him. For this reason, Amy was tasked by the PBPD to not only confiscate Yukianesa, but to capture her brother dead or alive, or rather kill him.

While this may seem like a way to help Duncan get back to his senses, Amy was actually infuriated of how her very own brother that stopped so low to commit murder nearly costed her the sanity in her junior years along with the fact that Duncan is using the same weapon that was used by his attempted murderer. Her hatred towards Duncan is so strong to the point that she wants to murder him with her own hands and destroy Yukianesa permanently, which results in her quick temper making it harder to control her actions and clouding her judgement ever so often. Because of this, she often has doubts of her hatred and reason of getting revenge whenever she defeats her enemies, and sees it as excuses for the pain she felt back when she joined the police. Even though Amy was intent on killing her brother at any time, she wants to do so out of mercy for his sake (which is a similar case for Duncan, but only due to Yukianesa’s influence and the desire to get rid of her corruption) and always hesitates on the finishing blow whenever she critically injures him or sees him suffering from Yukianesa’s power. While this may seem like she was being intentionally incompetent for her family, Amy has a sense of honor and wants a true fight with Duncan with them equally matched, even if it means losing her life or letting Duncan make himself go berserk. In addition, while Amy feels like her life will be lost from the dangers of the world, she has an ongoing desire to live to protect the people who need her the most.

“''ARI ARI ARI ARI ARI ARI ARI ARI ARI ARI ARI ARI ARI ARI ARI ARI ARI ARI ARI ARI ARI ARI ARI ARI ARI ARI ARI ARI ARI ARI ARI ARI ARI ARI ARI ARI ARI ARI ARI ARI ARI ARI ARI ARI ARI ARI ARI ARI ARI ARI ARI ARI ARI ARI ARIII!!! Arrivederci.''” - Soul Woman and Amy Young

Soul Woman's Appearance: Soul Woman (ソウル・ウーマン) appears as a shining green humanoid with its eyes concealed by a blue helmet with gold spikes and black longer streaks on the end, and sporting an athletic build like Amy, but much taller. It has a blue bodysuit that only exposes the stomach, which contains a green swirling symbol, and white pieces of padded armor on the arms, wrists, shoulders, legs, feet, and groin along with gold zippers varying in size. It also has wide gray vertical rectangles on the sides of its abdomen, where police usually place their handguns, and matching circular metal pieces dangling on its behind.

Soul Woman's Personality: Soul Woman is one of the few Stands used in conjunction with its user’s Stand cry. Amy’s trademark line begins by stringing, “ARI ARI ARI...!” along with a rapid barrage of punches; followed by an “Arrivederci” the Stand finishes its attack. Soul Woman is also shown to fix a few rookie mistakes when Amy isn’t noticing or realizes something went wrong.

Powers and Abilities: Soul Woman has slight control over multiple souls within its range, making the person and their soul separate from each other in physical contact, switch theirs with another lifeform or object, or changing them into a variety of personalities. Soul Woman can also create zipper-like openings against living things to remove their soul and take away the amount of soul they have whatever Amy wishes or make objects as portals to quickly retreat or hide, but she can also use them in the air to travel into the Soul World, a dimension where she encounters various captured or deceased souls and has no idea where to go until she creates another zipper portal which can lead her to a different area she has no knowledge of or has seen before. Soul Woman can also quickly separate things into pieces and can use them in large proportions to store items in a dark space. Taking away a piece of the person’s soul can be formed into something like a voodoo doll, which allows Amy to inflict damage on the doll while reflecting the damage to the person’s body whose soul is made into a doll. In combat, Soul Woman can force out the soul of a living being and is able to attack them, whose damage can be shared with the main body. As a counter against Stand Users and wielders of Divine Artillery Balancers (and most importantly one using a Nox Nyctores) and as a enhancement of her powers, Amy can use Soul Sealer (ソウルシーラー) to perform attacks from her Stand directed to the soul of the vessel, literally “sealing their soul” and preventing them from using their special moves, Instincts, and Overdrives temporarily while giving Amy the chance to attack them further.

When fighting on her own or with her Stand, Amy performs attacks consisting of powerful and crude-yet-controlled strikes of brute force and of simplistic form at her enemies through her fists and weapons where one can usually see on the streets, while performing near-elegant and stylistic attacks of confidence from her training back in the police force along with martial arts moves. While she fights when she is at the enemy’s range, her Stand often does the fighting at far ranges and would perform attacks of similar intensity and fighting style. For further advantages, Amy uses her riot shotgun combined with an Bearing Straight axe stock to extend her range along with infusing the axe with soul energy to create openings and to damage the enemy’s soul.

In addition, Amy can use Soul Woman’s zipper powers to extend its limbs to several meters to reach enemies from afar and attach several things together with them, such as managing to block enemy attacks by trapping their weapon or limbs, creating a bridge-like structure that can support the weight of two people, trapping others’ limbs to themselves or others, attaching a Stand User’s arm to herself for additional punching power, and allow others to heal from wounds. She can also convert a variety of objects into traps, like turning a sign rod into a cutter by canceling the zipper, trapping an enemy into a large unzipped crate, burst them open like a flower by having Soul Woman unzip the object, and exploit hazardous materials into turning them against enemies. How harmful is Soul Woman’s detachment is inconsistent, as Amy was able to keep defeated opponents alive after zipping off their head and limbs and didn’t suffer any drawbacks after unzipping half of her head, chest, and various parts of her body to dodge attacks, but on the other hand, Amy has grown weak and is unable to survive from sectioning herself into pieces due the blood and oxygen unable to circulate fully through her body and parts of her soul being exposed from the holes, slowly killing her as if her parts are truly disconnected from each other. Amy even killed Clarisse by having Soul Woman fatally section her into multiple pieces, with immediate lethal effect, along with causing a small pool of blood to spill out of Lori’s throat by zipping it open (only managing to cut the blood vessels of the skin), so it’s possible she has control over the amount of damage from the Stand’s zippers. Because the zippers are remotely opened and closed, Amy can take advantage of the zipping itself. She can create long zippers over surfaces and control the zipping to rapidly reposition herself if she holds the zipper’s handle, for instance, to move down a lift shaft using the zipper to slow down her descent.

At times when she feels the need to gain the upper hand on the verge of defeat, Amy can activate a special code through her Soul Sealer that allows her to go under a longer-lasting Overdrive that is named Ragnarök (ラグナロック), which enhances her Soul Sealer into locking the opponent’s abilities indefinitely and when separated from her Stand, allows her to perform a new set of special moves consisting of soul constructs combined with all kinds of fire and heat such as light, sparks, lightning, gasoline, ash, and lava that can separate through zippers for follow-up attacks. While these moves can be somewhat costly for her SPECIAL meter, it nonetheless refills quickly overtime in contrast to the free EX Moves performed by her brother. Her fighting style also changes, with most of her attacks being derived from Hong Kong martial arts films and Western cult followings, taking focused and quick strikes from the former while utilizing a brutal-yet-powerful style from the latter. Additionally, unlike most combatants, her Trump Card can only be performed if she is in Overdrive, which is a problem when fighting at the beginning until she or her enemy reaches the apex of their power, giving Amy the opportunity to power up without having to worry about the repercussions of her abilities.

If Amy is knocked unconscious and/or suffers a near-death experience, her soul leaves her body and becomes existent in the physical realm. As her body serves as a stabilizer of her powers, Amy cannot use her Stand, but she can be unseen and phase through surfaces and possess people to invade their body on the inside, making Soul Woman a dangerous tool even if defeated. However, Amy is very slow and powerless in this form and her body may have a chance of getting up in a quickened pace (in her eyes) and become vulnerable to attacks, resulting in Amy’s soul immediately returning back to the body, now sustaining heavy amounts of pain from the them. If Amy’s body is fixed or restored, then Amy can return back to her body, newly revived. Amy can also separate her soul from her body, but it would take effort and her being in a safe spot to initiate it.

Amy can take her abilities into account by generating a green gemstone (acting as portal to the Soulworld) to store souls and physical bodies of said souls, either to protect them, for safekeeping, or to prevent them from attacking for long. Inhabitants inside the gemstone are confined in a specific area where the portal is and are always act unaware or unconscious of their surroundings until they are pulled out. Amy is also able to know if someone is lying simply by looking, tasting, smelling, hearing, and feeling anything that proves that they’re a liar, which is further amplified by the Soul Sealer Amy wields. Whenever she uses one of her senses to detect a lie, a slight, sharp, sweet sting will occur on them, indicating an anomaly within the soul.
