![]() Songsters generally performed a wide variety of folk songs, ballads, dance tunes, reels and minstrel songs. Black and white musicians shared the same repertoire and thought of themselves as "songsters" rather than "blues" musicians. It began soon after the end of slavery and the Reconstruction era in the United States, when African-American musicians became able to travel and play music for a living. The songster tradition both pre-dated and co-existed with blues music. In addition, the life force of Stand users give more energy to Yuya and heals him faster, thus he specifically targets Stand users.Look up songster in Wiktionary, the free dictionary.Ī "songster" is a wandering musician, usually but not always African-American, of the type which first appeared in the late 19th century in the southern United States. Yuya implies that if he wishes, Highway Star can fatally drain a target until they're an emaciated husk. ![]() ![]() When it sucks out the energy, the victim's skeleton can be seen, and they are left severely exhausted and unable to move or even use their Stand, as was the case with Rohan. ![]() Although the process takes time, it weakens the user and the stand quickly once it makes complete contact. Highway Star's main ability is to suck life energy, or "nutrients", from its victims when any part of it touches the target and transfer it to Yuya in order to heal him. Highway Star's piece leech their victim's lifeforce However in this state, Highway Star acts automatically and mindlessly follows the scent, allowing its target to temporarily trick it. This allows Highway Star to be impervious to physical attacks like punches, slip through narrow passages, or do large scale multi-angle attacks by striking with all its pieces at once. Highway Star can section itself into many slices as it flies at high speeds, breaking apart into flat horizontal segments shaped like footprints that move independently of each other and then reassembling itself piece by piece. It allows him to guess if fruit is rotten and even smell someone's mood by the adrenaline they release. While Highway Star can acquire someone's scent and automatically lock onto their position (meaning it can automatically summon itself near the target if they are far enough), Yuya's own nose is subtle enough to pick up and distinguish faint odors. Highway Star possesses a superhuman sense of smell that Yuya himself sports. Once it has hold of its victim's scent, it begins to relentlessly chase them anywhere at a constant speed of 60 km/h. Īnyone who enters the room is targeted by Highway Star, who then acquires their 'scent'. In Rohan's particular case, he was shown a vision of a man bearing resemblance to Yoshikage Kira, killing a woman. To do this, the Stand will create an illusion inside the room, its appearance being entirely dependent on the person being lured. Highway Star's first witnessed power is a rather odd ability to create a room and lure victims into it. It is also able to throw a brief punching barrage. ![]() Two of its basic but most remarkable characteristics are its speed and range: Highway Star can run up to 60 km/h (roughly 37 mp/h) and indefinitely maintain that running speed in order to chase after its prey moreover its chase after Josuke around Morioh while Yuya was in Grape Hills Hospital demonstrates its great range. Highway Star possesses a disjointed set of powers that make fighting it a perilous endeavor, and even Josuke must flee the Stand to find the user and beat him. Highway Star is a long-range Stand defined by mediocre fighting power and a long range of action with above average speed, which enables Yuya to pilot his Stand rather precisely while resting far from danger. In the colored manga and anime, Highway Star is portrayed as being purple and black. In the anime, Highway Star speaks with a calm and slightly sinister version of Yuya's own voice. When going after Terunosuke, Yuya gives orders to Highway Star rather than simply controlling it with his mind. An automatic stand, Highway Star is able to move and think independently even conversing with the heroes and coming up with plans on its own. Highway Star relentlessly pursues its prey by following their scent. When chasing a target, it splits itself into multiple thin layers of its body, giving the impression of a group of footprints chasing after the target. Highway Star is an almost naked, humanoid Stand with a dark, checkered body, and an ornamental fake beard on its chin reminiscent of that worn by the Pharaoh Ws. ![]()
