Overview​

Louis Santiago 2 is a human Pest Exterminator-class crawler who appeared on Floor 5 as a partner to Firas M.

Role in the Story So Far​

Louis appeared on Floor 5 in an impaired state, initially presenting as comic relief. After Mordecai provided a Rapid Detox potion in Chapter 5, Louis became sober and demonstrated significantly higher competence throughout the floor. His legendary-tier Cloud of Exhaust spell (Level 11, produces a knock-out gas cloud with a 10-minute cooldown) proved tactically valuable across multiple engagements.

Louis fell in love with Juice Box, the changeling NPC, during the events of Floor 5. At the end of Book 4 he joined Katia's splinter team along with Juice Box.

Known Relationships​

  • Firas M — long-standing dungeon partner
  • Juice Box — romantic interest
  • Katia Grim — ally; joins her splinter group

On Floor 8, Louis was in Havana with Carl's group. He organized a Christmas party and held a vomit bucket for Katia during her drug withdrawal. He received Scroll of Build Trench (×5) and other loot. He may have looted Quan Ch's nickel sock after Quan's death.
