Gender: Female

Manufacturer: Missilis Industry
Weapon Name: Hero Syndrome
Considered to be Syuen's best Nikke from Missilis. As the leader of Missilis' elite squad Matis, Laplace always charges headlong into danger, eager to prove her mettle as a hero. She loves to make her entrance by recklessly crashing through a window. Laplace is a Nikke from the 9th generation series, as they don't grow muscles.
The leader of Matis, the top squad in Missilis. She more than lives up to her heroic reputation inside the Ark, which goes unquestioned.
Laplace plays the role of an archetypal superhero: she has high regards for justice, strong-willed, and sacrificial to protect others. Self-assured and confident almost to a fault, Laplace's hero-oriented mindset can sometimes cause friction with humans (who she believes are weak, helpless beings in need of protection) and other Nikkes (whom she believes must give everything, even their lives, to their mission or fail as heroes). Laplace's zeal to act as a superhero sometimes ends up in comical blunders, such as accidentally destroying a bridge during a mission with Absolute, or smashing through windows for a dramatic entrance.

After a harrowing experience of being corrupted and then cured by Vapaus, the incident left its scars on Laplace, much as she may deny it. Laplace's sense of confidence and ability to protect others was greatly impaired, exacerbated by her inability to summon her signature weapon, often leading to her fleeing or freezing up when Raptures approached. However, with a little encouragement and willpower, Laplace was able to overcome her fear and stand again as a hero. She has since been on active duty alongside her fellow squad members.

Trying to secure her position as the CEO of Missilis Industries, Syuen would create Matis as a Nikke squad that was focused on combat, but can be experimented on to improve their results. As a human, Laplace was the only participant who offered herself for the project without any stipulations. At that time, she was frail, emaciated, anemic, and showed little promise overall. Under normal circumstances, she would've never been accepted to undergo this process. However, Syuen personally granted her permission to do so. While rumors swirled around that the two had either met beforehand or were related, neither was the case.
While most of the other candidates died, gave up, or ran away, Laplace was the only one that endured it all. Thanks to a DVD she dubbed the "Hero Manual", she was able to make it through the experiment (and it is also where both her drive to be a hero and her heroic personality came from). The end result was her becoming the first member of the squad. It was because of her creation that Syuen favors the hero specifically and why she still holds the title of CEO to this day.
