King Crimson embodies Diavolo's personality in its entirety, as he frequently speaks through his stand. King Crimson's knuckles, ankle decorations, lower back, and the soles of its feet vary in color throughout its many appearances, being depicted as white, silver, gold, or emerald (with the aforementioned areas occasionally varying in color in a single depiction).

Its primary face and the grid on its body is either white or yellow, and its metallic body parts are usually portrayed as white or silvery. It is depicted in all media as having lime green eyes. īefitting its name, King Crimson is depicted in all media featuring it as being primarily red, with the shade of red varying from work to work. Its design is inspired by the character George/Kuato, from the 1990 science fiction film Total Recall W, a mutated human with a smaller twin brother conjoined in his belly. Epitaph presents itself as a bump on the forehead featuring eyes and a mouth constantly grinding its teeth, often mimicking King Crimson's current mood and mouth movements. The aforementioned second face on King Crimson's forehead is named Epitaph, and is sometimes duplicated in the same position on Doppio's forehead when he is given some of King Crimson's power by Diavolo, the only difference between is that the two raised levels don't appear. It constantly bares its teeth through a small mouth. In earlier depictions, there were two raised levels. Its crown is flat and from its forehead emerges a raised level that bears a smaller, oval face of the same expression. Its eyes comprise sharp orifices of a steep inward slant from which emerge small, round eyes without sclera, with pronounced eye sockets that have the same fragmented pupils that Diavolo himself has. Its body is covered by a raised diagonal grid save for its face, neck, shoulder guards, elbows, hands, abdomen, crotch, knees, and feet/footwear. King Crimson is a humanoid Stand of a height and build similar to Diavolo's, but tends to look much bigger and taller.
