<Dl> <Dt> Ban ( バン ) </Dt> <Dd> Voiced by : Tatsuhisa Suzuki ( Japanese ) ; Ben Diskin ( English ) </Dd> <Dd> Ban is the Sin of Greed with the symbol of the Fox and the third Sin to join . His name is taken from King Ban , the father of Sir Lancelot . He is nearly seven feet tall , is extremely lean yet muscular , wears red leather clothing , and has white hair . His wanted poster depicts him with a short and spiky hairstyle which he reverts to after cutting his long hair achieved while in captivity . He was initially imprisoned in the Baste Dungeon , before escaping when he discovered that Meliodas was still alive . He and Meliodas are best friends and rivals to the point of being blood - related , and the two often engage in friendly scuffles together to compare their strengths . He and King also form a dynamic duo , with King 's ' nice guy ' personality and relation to Elaine as her protective older brother clashing with Ban 's ' bad boy ' personality and romance with Elaine . Although still a good - natured person , he is depicted as the most immoral of the Sins : he seems to have no qualms hurting or killing enemies , he was infamous throughout the kingdom as a bandit whose skill at theft was legendary , and he was very quick to betray and attempt to kill Meliodas at the request of a goddess in order to revive his lover , Elaine . Ban is depicted as an alcoholic and an excellent cook ; after he joins the group , Meliodas quickly makes him the official chef of the Boar Hat . At age 23 , twenty years before the main storyline , Ban tried to drink from the cup in the Fountain of Youth to become immortal in an effort to live long enough for `` something good to happen to him '' , but changed his mind when Elaine , the guardian of the fountain , told him the Fairy King 's forest would die if he took the water . Over the course of a week , he bonded and fell in love with Elaine , before they were attacked by a red demon and both mortally wounded . With Ban completely incapacitated , only Elaine was able to drink the fountain 's magical waters , but in an act of sacrifice , she chose to kiss Ban and transfer the water 's properties to him , granting him immortality at the cost of her own life and the destruction of the forest . He ultimately slays the demon with the aid of his new abilities , but is accused of stealing the water from the Fountain of Youth and burning down the Fairy King 's forest in an act of `` greed '' by the kingdom of Liones , for which he does not defend himself and is ironically sentenced to death . After Ban escapes from Baste Dungeon , he joins up with the Sins to stop the Holy Knights . </Dd> <Dd> Ban 's immortality allows him to heal from any injury , no matter how massive or fatal . He has been seen being impaled , bifurcated , and even vaporized from the waist up , but has recovered from these injuries fully in little to no time . This recovery is seen through open wounds closing , teeth and bones growing back , and blood vanishing . However , he has a scar on his left cheek / neck because he tried to grab Meliodas ' sword , before Meliodas cut him with it . Furthermore , Ban 's immortality / regeneration also seem to render him immune to the effects of poisons and fatigue ; all these terrifying traits earned him the name Undead Ban . His other ability is Snatch ( 強奪 ( スナッチ ) , Sunatchi ) , which allows him to rob others of their possessions and even physical abilities . He is shown to be able to temporarily sap the physical strength and speed of his opponents ( and allies ) , as well as grasp objects without physically touching them . Twelve years ago , after draining the strength of King and Diane , Ban was able to perform 100,000 consecutive push ups before needing to rest . Ban also has shown some skill with weaponry in the present , particularly with a three - sectioned staff very similar in appearance to a nunchaku . His sacred treasure , Courechouse , a four - sectioned staff , was ironically stolen ( most likely confiscated , as he claims it was
