## Personality

Yoshikage Kira is a sociopathic serial killer. He may have some form of OCD, as he keeps track of how long his fingernails grow and keeps the clippings in jars. His house is also neat and orderly. He has this weird obsession with killing girls and then chopping off their hands to keep for himself.

## Powers and Abilities

Kira's Stand Killer Queen allows him to turn a bomb into pretty much anything. He has three distinct bomb types, as well as an additional ability when he combines forces with the Stand Stray Cat.

* **1st type-bomb**: Killer Queen turns whatever he touches into a bomb, and can detonate it at will, causing it to erupt and cease to exist. It's possible that only Kira can hear the noise it makes.
* **Sheer Heart Attack (2nd type-bomb)**: An automatic head seeking Sub-Stand controlled by Kira's right hand. It follows its target indefinitely until it explodes. It is indestructible.
* **Bites the Dust (3rd type-bomb)**: After getting stabbed by the Stand Arrow once again, Kira gained the new ability to reverse time. The ability is activated on one person, and when that person discovers Kira's identity, the people he told are murdered and the host is sent back in time again.
* **BTD & Stray Cat**: When merging with Stray Cat, Kira is able to shoot bubbles from his chest that explode on contact.
