Barx Kalcet

One of Meridian's old assistants. Very very old. Quite literally his first.
Both of these designs will be mashed into one. Barx is a male
Will he show up in the comic? No idea. This very well might just be a lore only character

Meridian had several assistants over the years, all of whom he  plucked from the timeline and saved from death. If they were just going  to die anyway, no one would be suspicious of their sudden disappearance.  His first assistant was a Feline Kodin named Barx, who he took in after  an attack by Lykan on his town. Of course, seeing as Barx was the  first, there were still a lot of unforeseen issues that would eventually  spring up.

One of those issues was Barx’s eventual betrayal. The  concept of right and wrong had largely been forgotten by Meridian over  the years. Things mortals view as “good” and “bad” have become white  noise to him. People get killed every day, and he’s seen it billions of  times, so he’s gotten to a point where things like that don’t phase him.  Because of this, he never bothered to look for a “good” aligned  assistant, just for someone who’d do the job to his standards; that job  being to guard the Mirror Temple and alert him to any intruders.

Barx  did his job just fine, but eventually he began to resent Meridian.  While he was out exploring the world and accomplishing great feats with  his magic, Barx was stuck in the desert guarding the temple. Meridian  did his best to keep him happy, mainly by using his magic to allow Barx  to do basically whatever he wanted so long as he could still do his job,  but Barx wanted Meridian’s powers for himself. He never posed any real  threat to Meridian’s safety, as any attempt against him was seen  hundreds of times while he was in his loops, but it began to wear him  down as time went on. At a certain point Barx stopped doing his job, at  which point Meridian had lost all patience for him.

But someone  like that couldn’t just be let go. He’d already used his magic to extend  Barx’s life span well past a standard mortal. He was too far removed  from society to return without raising some suspicion. On top of that,  if he ever were to die he’d retain all of these memories in the  Afterlife, which would in turn alert Oasis to his existence. So,  Meridian used his magic to alter past events; making it so that Barx  died all those years ago in the attack, when he was supposed to.  Memories were altered to support this, and once all was said and done it  was as if they’d never met. As much as Meridian didn’t like abusing his  magic this way, he was left with no other choice.
