《JoJos' Bizarre Adventure: Golden Road》Stand Snapshot: Tijuana Brass
Advertisement
Stand Name:
Tijuana Brass
User:
Emil Collins
Stand Appearance and Basic Properties:
Tijuana Brass is a tall "artificial humanoid long range stand" measuring up to an even 8 feet with its arms only a foot off the ground while at it's side. The stands legs are similar to pistons in that they can retract and extend with great force allowing Tijuana Brass to shrink in height but also propel it high into the air. The stand is reminiscent of a locomotive in design with a humanoid appearance. The face is similar to the Iron Giant in shape but with the lips of the machine shaped in a way to somewhat resemble teeth. The eyes are small LED light bulbs that can rotate in the stands head to show where it is looking
Unlike other stands, Tijuana Brass is always standing since it cannot float but keeps other attributes most other humanoid stands. It is somewhat independent to its user and speaks rather cordially to others. its combat abilities are near non-existent without the use of tools.
Stand Ability:
Photographic memory- Whenever the user directly takes a photo Tijuana Brass can be called on while holding said photograph by anyone by calling it's name. When the stand is summoned it can relay information on anything within the photograph be it the location, objects, people, or even concealed letters that are within an object in the photo. The user is able to discreetly manipulate what the stand can or can't say and can even instruct it to lie. This manipulation is done with nothing more than simple thought when the user takes a photo or while it's in it's possession
Conclusion:
While not a threat in combat, this stands’ greatest strength lies in it's ability to transfer and manipulate information. This stand is deceptively dangerous, even more so since there is no way to discern what photos belong to the user or if Tijuana Brass was instructed to give different information or act in a certain way. Likewise this is a very useful stand to the users allies since the user doesn't even need to be present (or alive even) to pass off the information.

System Prime
The legend of System Prime is one that has been told and retold many times over the eons. About how she, along with her trusted partner, travelled the worlds of Ahunna (a.hoon.a), sharing the [Gift of System] to all who needed it. It is a great story. Somewhat factual too. As long as you overlook the fact that System Prime was never a woman. —— If this story seems familiar to you, then congratulations, you're psychic. Well, that or you've read it before on my old account, Eli8iR, which I had to delete because of a probably silly reason that will need a shitton of weed to make me spill. If you don't recognize this story, then unfortunately you're not psychic. On the bright side though, it has been scientifically proven that reading my stories might make you psychic. Or blind. But that only happened twice, and those guys should not have badmouthed my work. Enjoy.

Beyond the Horizon's Eye
It is less than two weeks after the event known as the Flux Causality, and two days after the Grand Council has put forth the edict demanding the immediate retrieval and deletion of all Stringhoppers. Finding such Travelers, however, is proving more difficult than expected. A young boy and his sister find themselves violently taken from their world to another, and soon thereafter are forcibly separated. Now sold into slavery, the young man must find not only a reason to survive but a purpose to carry him home. The journey has just begun, and the hardest step is always the first one. ~ This is my attempt at both the Xianxia/Wuxia and Portal/Isekai genre of fiction that I love, and the means to provide a story set in such guidelines, while distancing myself from some of the more common tropes. I do hope you enjoy the story I shall endeavor to tell. ~ Average post between 1000 - 3000 words. This is a work in progress, and will be edited and adjusted over time. If you’re interested in something a bit more GameLIT, you might want to check out my second story on Royal Road, “The Dawnfire Archives”. My newest story is a combination of both genres, but with a female main character at the helm. Feel free to check out "The Card Thief of Culnivar"!
