Everything about Louis in Fields of Mistria: his birthday, loved and liked gifts, his Saturday Market clothing stall, and the banished tailor's story.
Fields of Mistria Louis Guide — Birthday, Gifts & Market Stall
Louis is the Saturday Market's clothing vendor — a legendary tailor banished from the Capital, now selling his wares to Mistria once a week. He's not a marriage candidate, but his backstory, his pet rabbit, and his surprisingly refined gift list make him one of the most interesting friendships in town. His birthday is Fall 20.
This guide covers who he is, his gift tastes, and how to catch him. For the full cast, see the characters guide.
Who Is Louis?
- Role: clothing vendor at the Saturday Market — he sells outfits and fashion items once a week.
- Backstory: Louis was once a legendary tailor in the Capital before he was banished — the wiki.gg character page lists the banishing outright, and his refined tastes (wine, fine wool, rare flowers) fit a man who dressed high society.
- Pet: he has a rabbit named Mortimer, who appears at the Animal Festival as a contestant — the animals guide covers the festival entries.
- Market crew: he rotates through the Saturday Market with the other vendors (Merri, Stillwell, Darcy, Vera, and the rest) — see the calendar guide for the market schedule.
Official source: the wiki.gg Louis page documents his tailor history, his banishing from the Capital, and Mortimer the rabbit.
Louis's Birthday & Best Gifts
Louis's birthday is Fall 20. Since he's only in town on Saturdays, check whether Fall 20 lands on a market day — otherwise gift him before or after. Birthday gifts are worth double hearts and skip the weekly cap.
His loved gifts are a Capital-fashion palette:
- Red Wine and White Wine — the easy answers, from the inn and the Wishing Well
- Golden Alpaca Wool, Golden Sheep Wool, Golden Rabbit Wool, Golden Rooster Feather, Golden Duck Feather, Golden Horse Hair, Golden Bristle — gold-quality animal products (see the animals guide for golden drops)
- Middlemist — the rare flower, also loved by Celine and Maple
His liked gifts mix materials and flowers: Crystal, Lilac, Alpaca Wool, Bristle, Cattail Fluff, Celosia, Breath of Flame, Crystal Rose, Tea with Lemon, Duck Feather, Essence Blossom, Frost Lily, Horse Hair, Marigold, Rabbit Wool, Rooster Feather, and Shadow Flower.
Red Wine is loved by Louis, Stillwell, and Elsie alike. One trip to the inn stocks all three of their weekly gifts — the fastest friendship route in the whole Saturday Market roster.
Louis's hated gift is the Fuzzy Moth — the one insect that ruins his mood. His dislike list includes most bugs, so keep insects away and stick to materials and wine.
Where to Find Louis
- Saturday Market only: his clothing stall is up every market day in town (after the "Repair the Bridge" quest opens the market).
- Festival days: vendors like Louis can appear at festival stalls — the festivals guide lists the booths.
- Animal Festival: while he doesn't run a stall there, Mortimer is a small-animal contestant, so you'll see his name in the competition results.
Because he's a once-a-week vendor, the efficient pattern is the same as Merri: keep two loved/liked gifts in stock and clear his slots every Saturday.
Befriending Louis
Louis is friendship-only — no romance. What friendship pays:
- Clothing stock: like other shopkeepers, his inventory can expand as your relationship grows, which matters for mods-free outfit variety.
- Requests: his requests lean on materials and tailoring ingredients — easy with a working ranch and mines setup.
- Lore: his Capital backstory and banishing get expanded through heart levels and dialogue — worth it if you care about the game's world-building.
