The Doll Without a Past

Background

It's hypothesized that various owners came into contact with the doll and parted with it. They all died one after another. An artist from Florence became the newest owner for over three years. One day, he entrusts it to his childhood friend: Basilio Pistarino. A supernatural countdown is set in motion and ticked down until he eventually died from accidentally falling headfirst onto a pen holder.↗↗

Basilio stops experiencing the ups and downs of life after becoming the new owner of the doll until a villa burglar breaks into Basilio's mansion. The doll coincidentally falls into his bag: having felt the urge to get away from Basilio. Lucio feels a strange sort of attachment and ends up becoming its newest owner. Basilio realizes that he's been robbed and understands the nature of the doll as soon as he notices the supernatural countdown on himself.↗↗

The Doll Without a Past

Rohan Kishibe purchases the doll from Lucio Portelli at the Thieves' Market. He brings it back home in Morioh. A week later, the short countdown on Lucio runs out and he's reported to have been the only casualty in a deadly truck accident. Basilio arrives at Rohan's house and makes a last ditch effort to re-obtain the doll. He fails and the countdown around his body dramatically shortens due to the rules of repeatedly transferring ownership. A tree topples over and crushes him to death.↗↗↗↗↗↗

Once Rohan tries to read the doll with Heaven's Door, a crow coincidentally loses its orientation and crashes through Rohan's window. His chair snaps and the doll is sent flying through the air after Rohan crashes onto the floor. It sails through the broken window and gets snatched off the ground by another crow that happened to be perched nearby. Rohan pursues and uses his Stand to make additional crows aid him.↗↗↗

The Doll Without a Past attempts to force Rohan to choose between his own life or the young fan's. Rohan uses Heaven's Door once more for a final gamble. Rohan writes a command in the boy to submit the doll he found to the police. A loophole of transferring ownership is found through the legal rule of lost and found. Since Rohan intentionally claims to be the legal owner of the "lost" doll, Rohan's able to split the doll apart and safely give the kid one of the pieces as a reward for finding it.↗↗

Rohan proceeds to shut the rest of the dismantled doll inside a secure box and bury it in his backyard as a time capsule of sorts. The doll is sealed away as Rohan's owned property forever.↗↗
