The Diamont are an ancient, silicon-based race whose physiology contains molten ferrous compounds normally found only in a planet's core.[1] The Bounty Hunter Spire is supposedly the last remaining Diamont in existence, and he aspires to solve the mystery of their disappearance.[2]

While little is revealed about them, the fact that Spire can transform at will into the Dialanche, a hypercondensed, spiked ferrous orb, without any technological enhancement suggests that this might be a natural defensive capability of all Diamonts. In this shape, Spire can scale flat surfaces and ram opponents.
