Summary
Diane is the Serpent's Sin of Envy of the Seven Deadly Sins. She was a prodigy of the Giant Clan, raised to be a warrior despite her misgivings about fighting. Eventually she journeyed outside her home and encountered Fairy King Harlequin, who she lived with and fell in love with. He was eventually forced to erase her memories of their time together, and she misplaced her love for him onto Meliodas, who she had developed a slight attraction for. After returning to the Giant Clan, during a routine battle alongside Matrona, they were betrayed by a power-hungry Holy Knight acting outside his orders, and Diane believed Matrona to have died. She was charged with killing her, and was conscripted into the Sins by Meliodas.
Diane later regained all her memories and her love for King, and she deepened her connection with nature after experiencing Drole's past and learning his sacred dance.

Weaknesses: Her Heavy Metal form can be melted by high enough temperatures.
Abilities
Creation: A magic power of the Giant Clan, Creation gives giants a deep connection to nature and allows them to manipulate the earth for a variety of purposes. Diane was noted for being a prodigy with Creation, and after undergoing Drole's training she gained an even deeper level of skill and power with it.
- Crazy Rush: Diane creates a huge number of massive earth fists to attack her target with.
- Diamond Shield: Diane raises a massive diamond wall with a decorative face on it from the ground.
- Double Hammer: Diane spins Gideon behind her back and quickly creates two large stone fists, one on either side of her opponent. The fists slam together with the target in between, trapping it.
- Fillet and Loin: Diane performs multiple hand movements and creates two earth golems, named Fillet and Loin, which she sends to attack her enemy.
- Friends: Diane creates earth golems in the likenesses of Hawk, Elizabeth, Meliodas, Matrona, and King. Because of her emotional connection to the originals, these golems are much more powerful than Fillet and Loin. The King golem is by far the most powerful, followed by Matrona.
- Ground Gladius: Diane slams Gideon into the ground, causing a massive blade made of earth to rise and strike from under her enemy at extremely high speeds. This technique instantly dispelled Gilthunder's and Howzer's Combined Technique: Dragon Castle, and was so large it could be seen from across the capital of Liones.
- Heavy Metal: Diane turns her body to metal, increasing her body weight, striking strength, and durability.
- Mother Catastrophe: Diane strikes the ground with her hammer, gouging out a vast amount of earth. Using her earth manipulation, she raises all of the earth into the air and brings it together to form a floating mountain, which she then sends crashing down on top of her opponent. Vaizel was destroyed due to this technique.
- Queen Embrace: Diane summons a giant wave of earth, much larger than even an Albion, that she rides over her enemies, burying them beneath a vast amount of earth.
- Rising Meteor: Diane raises Gideon high above her head, erecting an enormous star-shaped pillar from below her opponent which slams into them at extremely high speeds as it rises into the sky.
- Rush Rock: Diane raises many sharp rocks from the ground and fires them at her opponent.
- Sand Whirl: Diane performs specific hand motions and touches the ground, creating an area of quicksand under her opponent.
