N°1 is an imp who first appears in The Lost Colony. He is a warlock, an imp with magic. He is unable to warp into adulthood, unlike other demons.

Appearances

N°1 first appears in the book The Lost Colony in which he plays a major role in the rescue of the ancient demon island of Hybras. After being kidnapped twice, once by the child genius Minerva Paradizo and again by Billy Kong, an insane murderer, and rescued both times by Artemis Fowl II and Holly Short, Nº1 revives the last surviving demon warlock Qwan. Together Artemis, Nº1, Holly and Qwan bring the island of Hybras back to earth but realize in their return that they have missed three years of life. Nº1's second appearance was in The Time Paradox; Nº1 uses his powers to send Holly Short and Artemis Fowl back in time to save the extinct Silky Sifaka Lemur (Jayjay) from the insane megalomaniac Opal Koboi, and from the ten-year old Artemis Fowl himself. Nº1's latest appearance was in The Atlantis Complex; Nº1 was lured into a trap set by Turnball Root, who wanted Nº1 to use his demon warlock magic to restore youth to his human love, Leonor.

Physical Appearance

N°1 is described as looking like a small rhino, with a gargoyle-like head. He has a tail, which he describes as 'small and stubby.'

Personality

N°1 is a benevolent person(or rather,demon), and he feels immense remorse upon killing anything, even for survival, such as rabbits (going so far as to feel that their spirits haunt him)[In other terms,he is a pacifist,like most warlocks]. Initially while in Hybras, No1 is shown as being very timid with low or non-existent self-esteem, due to his concern of his slower-than-average warp, constant bullying and cruelty from the other demons and his trouble fitting in with his own kind.

He also enjoys pointing out the other meanings to phrases and words, which, as pointed out by Holly, is his way of dealing with stress and such.
