[QUOTE="Meridian, post: 580176, member: 1603"] Meridian comes from an old AD&D character I had by the name of Meridian Flint (a cambion anti-paladin: a half-fiend human blackguard/fallen paladin for 3rd editioners). The origin of the character was pseudo-Biblical, so the name I chose kind of reflected that. There was a phrase I latched onto: "the pestilence that walks at noonday." Meridian is the archaic term for "noon." Flint came from perverting the symbolism of Peter as the rock of the Church; being a fallen paladin, Meridian had been a rock of the Church but had splintered and cracked under the weight of his responsibilities. Flint is a brittle rock, and is best known for use in creating fires...and as a tool of the High Lord of the Nine Hells, he was certainly used to start a holocaust on his home plane. Meridian Flint. :) [/QUOTE]
