Louise Françoise le Blanc de la Valliere, known simply as Louise, is the main female protagonist of the light novel and anime series The Familiar of Zero.

She was voiced by Rie Kugimiya in the Japanese version, who also voiced Kagura in Gintama, Happy in Fairy Tail, Karin Kurosaki and Nemu Kurotsuchi Bleach, Alphonse Elric in Fullmetal Alchemist, Shana from Shakugan no Shana and Nagi Sanzenin in Hayate no Gotoku!. She is voiced by Cristina Valenzuela in the English version.

Personality

Like the other nobles, Louise defends her honor as a benevolent and "superior" person. She is a very persistent and stubborn girl, but, as Henrietta mentions, her heart is pure.

As for her relationship with her familiar Saito, she literally treats him like a dog as she hates him and is ashamed of him at first, until he proves his worth as a familiar. She is very fond of her elder sister Cattleya, which she looks up to; but Louise fears her oldest sister Éléonore, who is strict and always tells her to drop magic - due to Louise's apparent inability to cast nearly all magic - and get married to a fine noble in lieu of an education.

Summary

Louise is the third daughter of the aristocratic family in Tristain. She is attending classes in the Tristain Academy of Magic, where she is known as "Louise the Zero" due to her zero success rate at spell casting and lack of any elemental affinities, a nickname acquired even before the first episode. Louise is lonely at school, as her family for centuries with the Zerbst family. Kirche von Zerbst Alhalt bullies her every opportunity she gets. Many other students torment her as well. This motivates her to prove to everyone that she is not Zero, leading her to summon Saito Hiraga.

Spells

• Explosion
• Dispel
• Illusion
• Teleport (only able to teleport to as far as she can see; but is capable of being casted rapidly unlike Illusion. The distance depends on how much of the incantation she chants before using it)
• World Door (creates a magical door between one place and another)

Titles

Louise is the third daughter of the Duke de La Vallière and Karin, Duchess of La Vallière. She later becomes a lady-in-waiting for Henrietta, Queen of Tristain. After Louise's void was revealed to her family, Henrietta made Louise her heir, thus the Crown Princess of Tristain.
