Trivia

Louis is the first named animal character in the Destiny series.
Louis is first seen in the game's introduction as a manifestation of Light, flying towards the Traveler.
There was a glitch involving Louis in the first year of Destiny 2. When the player accessed Hawthorne's vendor screen, Louis would occasionally start vibrating rapidly. What caused this glitch to occur is unknown, but it has since been patched. This glitch was later referenced during the Dawning in-game event in 2017, where the player could gift Hawthorne with Ornithological Sedatives.
- This glitch has occasionally reappeared across the years and seems here to stay, even affecting other characters occasionally. Though it is far rarer to see compared to the near guaranteed occurrence during 2017.
