Location from jojos-bizarre-adventure by Hirohiko Araki
A wandering supernatural zone in the American desert — where the Holy Corpse's power warps reality, grants Stands to those who survive, and kills those who don't.
The Devil's Palm is where the supernatural bleeds into the Steel Ball Run. It's a mobile zone of altered reality centered on Holy Corpse Parts — wherever a Part is buried, the Devil's Palm manifests, warping the landscape and killing most who enter. Those who survive are granted Stand abilities, drawn to the Corpse by forces they can't understand. The zone moves, making it impossible to map or avoid reliably. Riders who enter accidentally often die of dehydration, predation by mutated wildlife, or simple reality breakdown. It's the SBR universe's answer to the Stand Arrow — a deadly filter that only lets the worthy through.
A shifting desert zone that moves across the American Southwest. When active: the terrain becomes impossibly hostile — sand that swallows riders, mirages that become real, plants that shouldn't exist in a desert blooming and dying in seconds. The air shimmers with heat distortion that isn't just heat. Animals flee before it arrives. The ground itself seems alive and hungry. At its center, the Corpse Parts wait.
