Ability[]
Osiris is an Automatic Stand that complements Daniel J. D'Arby's gambling and cheating skills. More precisely, it is the cooperation of Daniel's gambling and Osiris' ability to steal souls on easy-to-reach conditions that make the pair so dangerous. Because of this, Daniel nearly defeated the entirety of the Joestar Group.
Soul Steal[]
Osiris stealing a soul
Osiris has the ability to take the soul of anyone who loses to D'Arby in a bet or in a game.[1] More specifically, it will act when the opponent "admits defeat in their heart", which is said to reduce their soul energy to near-zero. In other words, if his opponent believes that there is no way they can win, then Osiris will be able to use its power. The losers souls are compressed by Osiris' hands and stored in the form of poker chips,[2] which D'Arby keeps as a collection.
D'Arby needs his opponent to agree to gambling their soul in order for Osiris' ability to work.[2] If the loser bet the soul of another person, Osiris can take it even if that person is not present or has not agreed to it.[3] Cheating is allowed when gambling against D'Arby, since he deems cheating acceptable as long as you aren't caught.[2]
D'Arby is free to gamble individual souls[2] or even split a chip into several blank pieces to be used in a game, with all of the chips together being equal to one soul.[4] If D'Arby himself recognizes his own defeat, the souls he's gambled are released.[5] He is also able to release any number of the souls he currently has at will.[5]
According to D'Arby, if he dies, so do all of the souls he's collected.[2]
Osiris may also have the ability to memorize anything that D'Arby touches, whether it be cards or page numbers. D'Arby has used this talent to cheat by touching Jotaro Kujo's cards, allowing D'Arby to know if Jotaro's cards were good or how he was going to use them. It is unclear if this is part of Osiris' abilities or if it is because of D'Arby's mastery as a card dealer.
