Stand Name: Soul Asylum

Namesake: American alternative rock band

Type: Long Distance

Appearance: Soul Asylum appears as a black, humanoid stand. On its head is a silver helmet with 3 flat spikes on top, depicting a face wearing a structure similar to diving goggles with blunt, white teeth biting into an undetailed cylinder, out of which sprout tubes that connect onto a device on its back resembling an oxygen tank, which is also silver in color. It has webbed feet with 3 toes, the middle of which is significantly shorter than the outer ones. When doused in liquid, its legs fuse together to become similar to the tail of a marine mammal.

Abilities:

Gas-to-Liquid Conversion Area: Upon activation, Soul Asylum causes all gaseous matter within a range of up to approximately 1 kilometer to interact with other matter as if it were liquid. It also creates a round barrier in which liquefied gasses are not allowed to leave to prevent them for flowing out of the stand's area of effect. This area is static, and doesn't move with the stand, nor the user, allowing them to leave at any time. However, if the center of the area leaves the stand's range it will return to normal, meaning the stand can be up to 500 meters away from the edge while retaining its effect, assuming the area of effect is at its maximum width.

The main use of this ability is to liguefy the nitrogen and oxygen within an area, creating a field in which those under its effect are forced to swim to move, making it easy for Soul Asylum to attack them, as its nearly impossible for them to dodge. The liquefied air also refracts light, making it hard to see. Due to the converted gasses gaining mass, but being unable to flow freely, the area in which Soul Asylum's effect is activated becomes similar to a fish tank, and a space will be created at the top of the "bowl" in which there is no air. As being underwater normally wouldn't allow anyone to breathe, Soul Asylum has a fail-safe feature that makes it so that all gas within an enclosed space (not including the barrier at the edge of Soul Asylum's range) will not be affected by the stand's ability, allowing it to act as normal and making breathing possible.
