Louis Arnote is an explorer and one of the people whose adventures are recorded in Brag Men, a book of Grand Line tales.[1]
Arnote is famous for giving Little Garden its name.[1] Though implied to be a true tale due to its inclusion in Brag Men, it is considered by the rest of the world to be a mere fantasy.[3] Arnote has also visited Elbaph and written a description of its grandeur, though he warned people not to overstay their welcome for unknown reasons.[4]
Based on this writings, Arnote has an adventurous personality and interest in experiencing the world.[4]

Biography[]
At some point in the "distant past", seemingly in the last hundred or so years,[5][3][6] Arnote visited Little Garden[1] and Elbaph.[4] He wrote about his time on both islands, naming Little Garden for the first time[1] and warning visitors not to spend too long on Elbaph.[4]
Arnote's writings would be mocked by casual readers around the world, with his information on Little Garden being included in Brag Men, a "book of tall tales".[3]
Trivia[]
Arnote is sometimes incorrectly described as the sole author of Brag Men.[7][2] This is untrue, as Brag Men is a collection of texts by various explorers.[3]
