He is not good at close combat and proper movement and positioning is needed to prevent him being surrounded by his enemies. He can use hidden artes to corral his opponents at a slight distance to attack enemies with elemental attacks via mana-imbued papers, but his specialty is in his malak artes, which consist mainly of non-elemental artes. Laphicet battles using paper sheets, similarly to Lailah from Tales of Zestiria. He is also kindhearted with a strong sense of justice, willing to help his friends and fight those who have wronged them, such as when he invited Kamoana into the group, and promised to clobber Innominat for breaking Velvet's heart. As the youngest member of the party, Laphicet idolizes both Eizen and Rokurou, who each on their own way encourage Laphicet to live his own life, becoming his own person, different from the both of them. He loves studying new things and reading. He soon becomes close with Velvet, determined to protect her. But after interacting with the rest of the party, he eventually develops his own sense of self and ability to smile. Laphicet initially appears shy and withdrawn due to his enslavement to exorcists, obediently following any order he is given, even if it kills him. His white and blue contrasts strongly with Velvet's black and red. He wears a white cloak, a short blue cape, long black socks, black shoes, and a large black choker with a yellow jewel. He has green eyes and blonde hair, with a swirl on top representing a halo. Laphicet appears as a young child in pale, innocent colors. After Velvet kills Artorius and seals Innominat along with herself, Laphicet becomes the dragon Maotelus so that he, along with the four reincarnated praetor exorcists, can protect the world from malevolence, but this also causes humans to lose the ability to see the malakhim. When he confronts Velvet with this technicality, Laphicet is reminded that who he chooses to be is what is important, not who he used to be. When she fell into the cape of Aball's altar, she was reincarnated as Seres, and the child, as Laphicet himself. Eventually, it is discovered in a flashback revealed by the Earthen Historia that Velvet's late sister Celica Crowe was pregnant with Artorius Collbrande's son. He begins to become close with Velvet after she decides to name him after her younger brother, Laphicet. As he interacts more with Velvet, Laphicet gains knowledge far beyond his initial blank slate and eventually develops a sense of self.

Laphicet begins showing emotion when he becomes interested in a compass used to navigate the ship, always carrying it with him. Laphicet stays quiet unless someone talks to him, or if he is given an order, he will follow it without question. Laphicet initially clashes with Velvet due to his lack of personality. Deeming his magical abilities to be useful, Velvet decides to take the malak boy with her. Following orders, Laphicet blasts Teresa and Eleanor away, giving the group time to escape. When Teresa and Eleanor Hume intend to stop them from escaping, Velvet orders Laphicet to help her, threatening that she will devour him if he refuses.

He assists Teresa in stopping Velvet, dealing considerable damage to Velvet and her group until a fire distracts them. He first appears as a malak serving under Teresa Linares, being referred to simply as Malak Number Two ( иЃ–йљ·дєЊеЏ·, Seirei Niigou ?). Laphicet was originally a child without name or personality, serving only as a magical tool for exorcists.
