Many of Genshin Impact’s lovable characters have unclear ages in the game, including Diona Kätzlein. One of the earlier additions to the game, Diona is a 4-star Cryo character who uses a bow in combat. Despite her youthful appearance, Diona works as a bartender at the Cat’s Tail tavern in the City of Mondstadt. This situation can make it difficult for fans to guess at the character's age, but certain information helps pinpoint a more accurate idea.

Genshin Impact’s ever-expanding cast of playable characters have undefined ages, although players can get a rough approximation based on details included in the game. Some characters’ ages are easier to determine than others from information in character stories, interactions between each other, and sometimes, but not always, appearance. Fans have used these hints to come up with guesses for the ages of the cast, even calculating the exact ages of Genshin Impact's Diluc and Amber. In Diona's case, there are enough pointers in both her backstory and visual design to hazard a reasonably good guess at the young bartender's age.

Diona's Age In Genshin Impact Is Probably 12

Along with Qiqi and Klee, Diona is one of Genshin Impact’s youngest playable characters in terms of appearance. The former two are speculated to be 10 years old or perhaps even younger, with Qiqi potentially being as young as 8 biologically. Diona, by comparison, is slightly older and even has a job, even if her reasons for taking the job were initially to try to sabotage it. Some fans have guessed she may be as old as 14, but the similarity of her appearance to Qiqi and Klee would imply that her age is closer to theirs than to various teenage characters in the game.

Diona's In-Game Model Helps Determine Her Age

When comparing the characters’ in-game model heights, Diona is only marginally taller than the adorable Genshin Impact characters Klee and Qiqi. Fans have approximated Diona’s height at 4’ 7” or 140 cm, compared to Klee at 4’ 5” (135 cm) and Qiqi at 4’ 4” (133 cm). It’s likely that the fans’ hypothesis of Diona being slightly older than Klee and Qiqi is accurate. Diona hates alcohol due to its effect on her father, so her young age as a bartender is slightly more understandable on the basis that she has no inclination to partake. Mondstadt takes inspiration from the medieval era, so some oddities like this are more common.

It's impossible to be 100% certain about most ages in Genshin Impact without official information from developer HoYoverse, but 12 can’t be very far off for Diona. Nonetheless, her young age hasn't held her back from success in her chosen profession, with a magic touch that makes her mix the most delicious drinks. Genshin Impact Version 3.3 lets players enter the Cat's Tail, finally offering a look at Diona's workplace that is likely to ensure her continued popularity with fans. Diona may not be the youngest playable character in Genshin Impact, but at approximately 12 years old, she’s very close.
