Fumble Posted April 2, 2015 Share Posted April 2, 2015 (edited) As we all know, the Reborn game has main characters mainly based off of the Reborn Online League Gym Leaders. They can be Gym Leaders, the DJ of the Nightclub (AKA DJ Arclight), or, as shown in the title, Team Meteor members. Now, many Meteor Members were also Gym Leaders. Such as: Lin, Dr. Sigmund Connal, Corey, Elias, Blake, Terra, and Fern. But, there are many Meteor characters that I know for a fact aren't Reborn League Gym Leaders. I was wondering who their inspiration was and if they were based off of real people or just purely made up. I really don't need the lower Grunts, like Aster and Eclipse, but I'd really like to know about ZEL, Taka, Sirius, and Solaris. Although, I doubt anyone besides the people who help create the game and Ame know. Edited April 3, 2015 by Chubb the Pig Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Enkhidu Posted April 2, 2015 Share Posted April 2, 2015 I remember that Ame said that all the characters of Team Meteor (of course except ex gym leaders) were all made up characters. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fumble Posted April 2, 2015 Author Share Posted April 2, 2015 Oh, I see. That makes sense, since I think it would be rare to have a person like ZEL around. Thanks for the answer! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kaiser the great Posted April 2, 2015 Share Posted April 2, 2015 ZEL is actually a pen name ame coined back in the days of mystery dungeon, or rather her guild name. It stood for 'Zebras eat Lions' iirc. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tringus Posted April 2, 2015 Share Posted April 2, 2015 I feel that the name Sirius would have been inspired from the star named Sirius, which is the brightest star we see in the night sky. Of course, I'm not sure if this is true, but with the name of the organization being Team Meteor, this may likely be possible. Solaris could have been inspired from the sun, which is part of the Solar System. That part, though, I really don't know. As for Aster, his name is based off of asteroids, and Eclipse's name is based off of an eclipse that the sun and moon make when they orbit around Earth. A solar eclipse occurs when the Moon blocks out the sun from Earth, and a lunar eclipse occurs when the sun, Earth, and the moon are aligned together and form in a straight line. As for Taka's name... I really don't know how his name would relate to space. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But i have a feeling it gonna be betrayed of team meteor and him. Idk that much, but eh. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheGoat Posted April 2, 2015 Share Posted April 2, 2015 "Taka" means falcon in japanese, or getting high, getting up, or also polyvalence. Maybe is this related, maybe not ! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Global Mods Ice Cream Sand Witch Posted April 2, 2015 Global Mods Share Posted April 2, 2015 I always thought Sirius was a reference to Sirius Black from Harry Potter, because that's the only other instance of the name I've seen anywhere and I didn't know about the star.

Fumble Posted April 3, 2015 Author Share Posted April 3, 2015 Many Harry Potter characters are actually named after stars, like Bellatrix (tbh, I actually didn't know this until I was doing some research). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Reno Posted April 3, 2015 Share Posted April 3, 2015 ZEL actually has a really neat story. You read xyrs diary in the snowy mountain place. Xe and El had really similar names so at first I though that xe had somehow cut off one of xyrs persona.Taka's just for comedic relief. He uses a Chatot with Nasty Plot for god's sake.

Ice Posted April 3, 2015 Share Posted April 3, 2015 Yerp all the meteors(well except for the gym leaders of course) were made up by me and this other cool guy named Will~Anyways most of the meteor names are related to space as for Taka and ZEL their names are different for two reasons1. We did neat little RP episodes on the server back before the game existed and they were both suppose to be just sort of undercover characters.2. I came up with their names originally based on a type they were gonna useTaka-ChatotZEL- an Eeveelution for each character Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
