Louise was born c.1953 on FGC-347601 III, a duplicate of Earth located hundreds of light years from the Sol system. After the failed Life Prolongation Project resulted in the deaths of the planet's entire adult population, Louise was one of the children left behind, slightly older than some of the other children like Miri. Her lifespan was massively extended by the virus, causing her to live for centuries. In 2267, her body finally entered puberty, and the physiological changes caused the virus to begin to ravage her body, accelerating her aging where it once slowed it to a crawl. Her skin was covered in cancerous tissue growth, and she was driven mad by the disease. She attacked Miri and Starfleet Captain James T. Kirk. Kirk shot her with his phaser, and although the weapon was set to stun, the virus had so ravaged her body that the effect was enough to kill her.[1]
