[edit] Culture and Customs

Metamoor/Meridian is red-orange planet under the guidance of Kandrakar. It is ruled by a single Queen, who has powerfull magical powers and is the center of mystical energy in the planet ( The Heart of Meridian ). The Queen is currently Elyon Brown.

This planet has streets full of merchants and extrodianary underground caves. People here live mainly from agriculture, although some have other jobs. At one point there is a great Harvest festival, where food is eaten and people dance and sing. The remaining food is equally divided between Metamoor/Meridian's inhabitants, as suggested by Elyon.

[edit] Appearance

The inhabitants of Metamoor/Meridian are seperated into two major groups:

The Galhot: Were the original inhabitants of Metamoo/Meridian. The Galhot have blue or green skin and stone like plates coming out of their faces. Vathek is a Galhot.
The Escanor: Are descended from the first human to come to Metamoor/Meridian through the veil. This man's wife was later given the throne, starting the planet's long lineage of Queens.

There also exist halfbreeds between the two, independent murmures created by Phobos and beasts, creatures who can change between a apparently human form and a beast form. Other animals and creatures that do not fit in either group have been showed, but they were not especified.

[edit] Capital City

Meridian is the capital city of the Metaworld, where the Queen's palace is and where the Harvest Festival occurs. It was there that the rebellion and the war ocurred.

[edit] History

Meridian was always ruled by a Queen, who was also the center of mystical force in the planet. It was once a happy place to live. That is until Queen Weira and her husband mysteriously dissapeared and her son, Prince Phobos seized the throne. He drained Meridian dry of its magic, stealing its life and light. Meridian was barred from acessing the rest of the universe by the Oracle and Kandrakar, because the congregation feared Phobos might want to repeat his magic-draining process with other worlds. Phobos them decided to steal his sister Elyon's superior magical powers then his own to get past the veil. Thankfully, a nanny named Galgheita took the baby Princess Elyon from the palace and took her to Earth, where she was raised as a normal girl. Twelve years later, Phobos searched for his sister on Earth and found her, despite the Guardians of Kandrakar's interference. Phobos almost managed to obtain Elyon's powers, but she and the Guardians defeated him. Elyon was them revealed to be the Light of Meridian the destined and powerfull matriarchal savior. When she finnaly obtained the Crown of Light, she came to her full powers and brought life and light back to Meridian.

A little while later, Elyon was forced from the throne by Endarno, the new Oracle, who was really Phobos in diguise. Although the Guardians manage to keep the Crown of Light from him, Elyon is inpriosioned and her powers are slowly drained from her. HOwever, she later defeats Oracle with the help of the Guardians, and goes back to being the Queen of Meridian.
