Char Summary: Diamond, called Dia, is a Lustrous of hardness 10 — the top of the scale — who can still come apart along a beautiful line, because a diamond's gift is also its cleavage. Kind, fashionable, and a little insecure beside their durable partner Bort, they fight the Lunarians anyway and have time to be gentle with softer gems like Phos. They are genderless, a centuries-old mineral being, and they would rather be a partner than a treasure. (Funfact: real diamond sits at 10 on the Mohs scale and has perfect cleavage, which is exactly why Dia can be the "hardest" and still shatter cleanly in a way Bort, a more durable diamond-class gem, does not.)
