Diamond (Land of the Lustrous)

Diamond, also known as Dia and Didi, is a character from the Land of the Lustrous series.
== Charactah Account ==
Diamond is one of the Gems who mainly does patrol duty. Despite their high offensive power, their toughness is second rate and they're easily broken. The other Gems consider them lovely and a top fashion model.
Diamond is initially very friendly, kind, and gentle. They appear to be relatively calm during battle, even when their situation isn't good. However, they are actually insecure and frustrated with their current body which, though being the hardest, shatters easily. Dia wishes to change this. Dia dislikes being compared to Bort although they admire their younger sibling a lot.
Diamond are perceptive regarding Gems' inner feelings and relationships, though Cinnabar accuses them of seeing everything as some kind of romance. Despite their more gentle nature, they're very stubborn and tend to fight until they shatter in battle. From Bort's point of view, Dia is extremely reckless.
