==Conception==
===Etymology===
Diavolo's name is derived from the Italian word for the Devil, Diavolo, in keeping with Absolute Tartarus' name being derived from one of the realms of the Underworld in Greek mythology.
===Design===
In addition to his bulkier body build, Diavolo's horns invoke the image of Minotaur, a creature in the Greek mythology who is portrayed as a man with the head and tail of a bull. In common with other Absolutians, Diavolo wears golden armour with black highlights, though it is considerably sturdier in design and larger in size to suit his preference for sheer strength. Diavolo's breastplate also has a set of red markings around The Kingdom's seal, which is darker in color compared to that of Absolute Tartarus. The red markings on his armour are that of the Cosmo Buffalo style, which he obtained on Planet D60 after killing Alude.
==Personality==
In addition to his pride as an Absolutian, Diavolo finds enjoyment in directly fighting against his opponents in terms of raw strength, forcing Tartarus to interfere should Diavolo came close to be sidetracked from their mission. He is at odds with Titan, a fellow Absolutian whose belief towards one's true strength clashes with Diavolo's.https://m-78.jp/news/post-6129https://en.tsuburaya-prod.co.jp/news/3110
Diavolo can also be cunning, as shown during his time disguised as Dias, faking a kind personality to get closer to Alude without raising the suspicion of the other Cosmo Beast Fighters.
==History==
===Ultraman Regulos===
Diavolo had heard of the Cosmo Beast Style, and sought to gain the power of the Cosmo Beast. He transformed into a form he called Dias, and practically begged to be a student of the Cosmo Beast Style despite being an outsider, and was allowed to train with the others. Behind their backs, Diavolo plotted with the Alien Magma to launch an invasion on Planet D60, intending to use them to make a distraction to get close to Alude and steal his Cosmo Buffalo for himself. The Magmas arrived soon after and Diavolo, as Dias, helped the other Cosmo Beast Fighters to drive them off. In the ensuing battle, Alude was critically injured by Volcan. During the second Magma invasion on the planet, Dias escaped from the battlefield to go to Alude's side, claiming to want to protect him. Alude saw through his ruse and punced through him, sensing the malice within Dias, who transformed back into Diavolo and stole the Cosmo Buffalo's energy from Alude, killing him. He then turned back into Dias and died just as Regulos and Spica arrived.
Dias then revealed himself to be still alive, having been resurrected by his Absolute Heart, before he killed Spica as well and transformed back into Absolute Diavolo, telling Regulos that the events that transpired were all part of his plan. Overcome by anger, Regulos attempted to get revenge on Diavolo, but was struck down by Absolute Tartarus. Diavolo was tempted to kill Regulos, but was advised against doing so by Tartarus, who instead had Regulos captured and placed in Narak to study the nature of Ultras for their upcoming feud against the Land of Light. 
===Ultra Galaxy Fight: The Destined Crossroad===
After Tartarus' successful capture of Yullian, he brought the Parallel Isotopes of Ultraman Belial and Ultraman Tregear to the Absolute Palace on The Kingdom's Central Planet. Diavolo and fellow Absolutian Titan make their presences known, with Diavolo scolding the two defect Ultras for entering the palace without permission. After a short conflict, Tartarus cut their conversation and stopped them. As Belial and Tregear were being empowered, the Absolutian trio discussed the Eternity Core and the Giants of Darkness, hoping to soon be able to attain the Core's power. 
The brutish Absolutian then went into Narak and came up to Regulos, pushing Yullian away just so he could mock the imprisoned Ultra. Astra managed to find his way to The Kingdom and entered the dimension, confronting Diavolo until Regulos set himself free, helping Astra push Diavolo back and rescue Yullian.
Diavolo gave chase and fought Regulos again within the Eldora Tower while Astra used his own body to recalibrate a signal that would lead Sora to find their position and make a portal back to their world. Regulos managed to push Diavolo back again using his superior martial arts, allowing the rescue team, along with Regulos and Yullian, to escape.
The Absolutians hunted them down, tracking them to Planet Blizzard with all of their forces, but they were met with an army of Ultra Warriors. Diavolo fought against Regulos again, revealing that Diavolo killed their former master Alude and inherited his fighting style, making him the Grand Master of the Cosmo Beast Style which Regulos rebutted. They were then joined by Astra and Leo, whose combined efforts proved far too great for Diavolo to match. Using the powers they inherited from the Cosmo Beast Style's fallen masters, the three Ultras perform a combined attack that destroyed Diavolo, leaving only his Absolute Heart. 
At the climax of the battle, Tartarus took hold of Diavolo's heart before he unleashed a powerful energy ray that was blocked by Ultraman King, creating a wormhole to another universe that pulled in him and Ultraman Ribut. Tartarus clashed with Ribut until they both landed on the Earth, where Tartarus revived Diavolo and warned him that he only has five lives left. In the distance, they saw the Giants of Darkness and Ultraman Trigger. 
===Ultraman Trigger: New Generation Tiga===
Having landed in Trigger's universe, Tartarus and Diavolo set about their previously discussed plans of attaining the power of the Eternity Core for themselves. Diavolo faced the three Giants of Darkness, withstanding their attacks until Tartarus arrived and stopped the fight. He demanded that they hand over the Eternity Core before leaving, threatening the three giants. The Aboslutians then sent down a Darebolic to draw out Ultraman Trigger who, while managing to defeat the monster, was hurt from the battle and the usage of the Eternity Core's energy. Diavolo then appeared and challenged Trigger, beating his other forms and forcing him to use Glitter Trigger Eternity once again. Trigger had his energy absorbed by the Absolutian until Ultraman Ribut arrived and allowed Trigger to escape. They fought until Tartarus appeared and told Diavolo to stop and remember their objective, before leaving. 
While Ribut trained with Kengo Manaka and Yuna Shizuma, GUTS-Select formulated a plan to defeat the Absolutian warrior. Through the data on the Absolutian race that Akito Hijiri received from Ignis, they came up with Operation Dragon to steal his Absolute Particle, a powerful energy source, to power the Nursedessei into Battle Mode. They succeeded in luring him out by projecting a copy of Trigger's energy signature through the TPU's Cosmic Ray Research Institute and taking his energy using the Gan-Q Kaiju Key. The plan succeeded in part due to the Giants of Darkness' interference with Diavolo, allowing the Nursedessei to finally change into Battle Mode. The Nursedessei, along with Glitter Trigger Eternity and Ultraman Ribut, defeated Diavolo together, destroying his body but not his Absolute Heart, ending the Absolutian invasion for the time being.
