Learn what are the Ascension Materials for Diona in Genshin Impact!
Diona Katzlein is a girl who inherited a trace amount of non-human blood. She became popular in Mondstadt when she became the bartender of the tavern named the Cat’s Tail. This is not only because she has a feline look, which the tavern is known for, but also because of her specialty drinks.
Despite being praised for her cocktail mixes, Diona despises alcohol. This is because her father, Draff, has been drinking a lot and has put himself in danger many times while hunting because of drinking too much. With this, Diona made a promise to herself, and that is to destroy Mondstadt’s wine industry.
Diana is a supporting character who uses a bow as a weapon and owns a Cryo Vision, enhancing her skills in combat and mixing cocktails. She provides shields for her teammates and heals them when necessary. Our little bartender got her Vision during a 3-day storm where she helped find her father and then mixed a drink to help numb the pain of her father’s injuries.
