High Priestess

High Priestess is the Stand of Midler in Stardust Crusaders, a Long-Distance Stand bound to the world of minerals and named for the tarot card The High Priestess. In its default shape it is a small creature wearing a tribal mask with fierce eyes and bared fangs, its thin, clawed arms jutting from a lump of inorganic matter, though it can reshape itself into virtually anything nonliving. The colored manga gives it reddish-brown skin and blue fur, while the anime makes it bone white with brown fur. Left to itself when Midler is not speaking through it, the Stand turns feral, loosing savage cries and laughter as it hounds the Joestar group without pause.

Physically the Stand is a serious threat: its small, agile body is hard to hit, and its claws slice clean through Joseph's metal hand, while its teeth, said to be harder than diamond and all but unbreakable, can bite down on or grind an opponent to pieces. Its central power is to blend into and take the form of any mineral-based material, be it stone, metal, glass or plastic. It can even copy intricate structures, once molding itself into a spear gun to fire itself at the heroes, and the disguise holds up to close inspection and touch, letting it vanish into a wall and surface somewhere else to strike. Given enough matter to absorb, such as the rock of the sea floor, the normally tiny Stand can swell to colossal size.

Midler is the sole wielder of High Priestess. As a long-range Stand it lets her stay far from harm while she directs it, though that same distance means she falls when it is beaten. Its design, according to JOJOVELLER, borrows from traditional garb associated with African magic.
