=== Special Ability ===
:''Main Article: [[Sentimental Point System]]''<br>
Laby can enhance her command attacks and certain special actives by using '''Sentimental Points'''. When available, Sentimental Points are automatically consumed when Laby uses special actives that use them and when she performs her command attacks, one for each applicable command attack. Attacks enhanced by Sentimental Points receive effects ranging from increased damage to ignoring a percentage of defense. Laby can regenerate Sentimental Points by using [[Inner Aurora]], entering awakening state, or using her awakening skill.

Laby also automatically enters awakening when her awakening gauge is full, so she can use her single awakening bead to instead perform a special awakening skill that damages enemies around her and puts them into a '''Groggy''' state, while recovering her Sentimental Points as well. 
<br>

=== Background ===
:''Main Article: [[Black Forest Cemetery]]''<br>
Every new thing is exciting and interesting to Laby. She may seem eccentric with how she expresses her feelings, but she is always eager to learn new things.

She lived deep within Black Forest for an unspecified time, but she was finally able to leave, led by 'Third Blue Light.' She decides to leave the forest and go on a journey to learn who she is.

The mirror that follows her around is her trusted ally and confidant. It helps Laby out as if it has its own conscience. Adept at using her fists, Laby will occasionally use her mirror in combat.

== Trivia ==
*'''Laby''''s job path in Lore/Story would be the [[Radiant Soul]] path.
**Interestingly however, dialogue by [[Gaia]] in [[Master Road]] suggests Laby's fighting style in-universe resemble [[Gaia]]'s, just with her own spin on them, which is the case for [[Eternity Winner]], but ''not'' Radiant Soul.
*'''Laby''' officially joins the main cast after the [[Sea of Ruin]] story quest [[Story/Rigomor/Chapter 37|Reinforcement]], though she is unconscious till the [[Abandoned Deep-Sea Tunnel]] story quest [[Story/Rigomor/Chapter 37|The Trace in the Tunnel]].
*'''Laby''''s ingame story starts after [[Elsword]] restored the El and unsealed [[Elrianode]], and she visits Elrianode while the [[El Search Party]] is still in [[Varnimyr]].
*'''Laby''' originally had no name, and was given her name by [[Gaia]], based on her place of origin, the Black Forest, ''Nisha Labyrinth''.
**'''Laby''' named her mirror weapon "[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nisha Nisha]", which means "night" in Sanskrit or "two things/people" in Japanese (二者).
*'''Laby''' is unable to recognize feelings of sadness or grief, due to [[Nisha]] absorbing most of those feelings into itself. As a result, she is always exceptionally cheerful, although she does feel uneasy during situations where one would normally feel sadness.
*She is shown to be incredibly resilient to any sort of damage, with wounds healing nearly instantaneously and taking no ill effects from demonic energy.
*The small bright blue flower bud on her chest seems to contain her feelings for [[Nisha]].
**It is entirely absent for the [[Eternity Winner]] path, who shuns her and only uses her own strength to win, considering Nisha as no more than a means to an end.
**It remains clearly visible for most of the [[Radiant Soul]] path whose feelings for Nisha never change, considering her as a friend the entire time, only disappearing on the final advancement as they both understand and accept each other.
**It blooms open into a dark purple flower for the [[Nisha Labyrinth]] path, spreading vines over her body before vanishing in later advancements as Nisha gains more and more emotions until she takes '''Laby''''s place at the end.
*Despite her class name being '''Child''', this is most likely in reference to her mentality rather than her biology.
**Due to having the mentality of a child, many of '''Laby''''s skill names are just sound effects and she often refers to herself in the 3rd person.
*'''Laby''' notes 3 blue lights from the time when she first woke up to the present. This is referring to the 3 times when the El had been changed in some way. First being when the first El Lady restored the El, second being when the El exploded, and third being when the El was restored by Elsword.
**This information makes '''Laby''' one of the oldest characters in the game, and potentially the oldest playable character
*Her Skill Cut-in appears to be depicting her doing her {{CDRU}} {{CZ}} uppercut.
*All of her 2nd and 3rd job promotional weapons are animated in some way, unlike most other classes.
*'''Laby''' was the first character to have fully unique story dungeons and quests, including quests in [[Elrianode]] and [[Varnimyr]], which became the standard from that point forward as seen with [[Noah]].
*As '''Laby''' automatically enters awakening, her [[Transcendence]] awakening cut-in will instead appear when using her special [[Sentimental Point System|Awakening Skill]].
*On her Character Selection platform, the flowers surrounding it each represent one of her three class paths. The bright pink flowers represent [[Eternity Winner]], the white/purple/pink flowers represent [[Radiant Soul]], and the dark blue flowers represent [[Nisha Labyrinth]].
*In the voice teaser "Laby's Song", the second song '''Laby''' sings is sung to the tune of the German children's song [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/H%C3%A4nschen_klein Hänschen Klein].
*'''Laby''' only has clear dialogue for dungeons directly connected to her story. For any other dungeon, the dialogue box won't appear at all.
*'''Laby''' has less [[Elrianode]] and [[Varnimyr]] story quests than the others.
