Adiane

アディーネ

Adiane the Elegant serves as the second of the Spiral King's Four Supreme Generals and is the sole female among them. She maintains a close friendship with her fellow General, Thymilph, although Guame jokes that their bond was even more intimate. She suggests this connection was strong because both Guame and General Cytomander treated her as inferior due to her gender, whereas Thymilph respected her as a warrior.
Following Thymilph's death, Adiane is stunned and vows revenge, volunteering to attack Team Dai-Gurren when Lordgenome offers her the chance. Although she refused his assistance, blaming him for Thymilph's demise, Adiane recruits Viral after he saves her from being crushed by the Dai-Gurren during an attempt to execute Nia, which she undertakes after learning Lordgenome has abandoned her. However, due to her boasting and staking her pride on the mission, Adiane refuses to return to Teppelin until she destroys Team Dai-Gurren, utilizing the sea to her advantage as the Dai-Gurren crosses it en route to Teppelin.
With Viral piloting her Dai-Gunkai to drag the Dai-Gurren into the cold depths, Adiane engages in personal combat with the Gurren-Lagann in her Sayrune to prevent interference. The plan fails, and Adiane attempts to take Nia hostage until Yoko disables the Sayrune's shoulder, leaving it vulnerable to close-range fire from the Dai-Gurren's artillery cannons, which kills Adiane instantly in the resulting explosion.
Adiane appears almost entirely human, except for a long, thick scorpion tail and a snake eye. She wears an eyepatch over her left eye and dresses in a loose-fitting gown with heels. She is intensely hot-headed and impulsive, often allowing her anger to overwhelm her, leading to difficult situations or causing her to vent her frustrations on Viral. Despite this impetuous nature, she is extremely skilled, capable of battling five powerful Gunmen simultaneously even outside her natural element of water.
Adiane's name derives from the DNA chemical adenine and the elemental Undine. Her Gunmen, Sayrune, is based on the mythical Azure Dragon, Seiryuu.
