Louie McGraff



Louie McGraff (often referred to as the Jailbird) is a playable character in BioShock 2 Multiplayer available to those who have purchased the Sinclair Solutions Tester Pack downloadable content with Oscar Calraca, which was released Thursday, March 11th, 2010.

"Louie McGraff likes to hurt people. And he's good at it. He's been doing it for as long as he can remember. But causing physical pain isn't the only criminal activity he excels at among - other things, he's also a highly competent bamboozler and smuggler, which is how he got himself into Rapture. Before being apprehended and incarcerated in a temporary brig, Louie "worked" the fisheries as a stevedore- a job that provided many opportunities to exercise his natural talents."

Story


A former smuggler working for Frank Fontaine, Louie was arrested and sentenced to Persephone for his crimes, where he stayed for at least six months. During one night, another convict, and potentially friend, named Knuckles disappears from his cell. Later on, Louie witnesses several scientists carrying a Big Daddy suit. Then, he hears screaming the likes of which he could not comprehend, which he determines was from Knuckles. Louie eventually strikes a deal with Augustus Sinclair, who promises to let Louie out if he participates in the Sinclair Solutions field trial. After being freed, Louie encounters a Big Daddy who he believes is Knuckles, recognizing him by his gimpy walk.

Behind the Scenes

 * Louie's quote "Dead Tin Walkin'." seems to be a reference to the phrase "Dead Man Walking" which was once traditional in American prisons, prior to the 1960s, to designate a man condemned to death. Prison wardens escorting a prisoner around the jail would call out "Dead Man Walking, Here."
