Talk:Lightbringer

I just re-watched the 12th episode, 1st season, of "Lie to me", titled "Blinded", and it suggsted that "Lightbringer" is a name for Lucifer. English Wikipedia confirms this. Given that Christian mythology is the main source of inspiration for the three Divine Powers, including Lightbringer, both directly and indirectly via J.R.R. Tolkien, it could be a good idea to rename "Lightbringer" to something else. Or maybe keep it. Not sure yet, but it is being considered, and feedback is welcome (post on the mailinst list). --Peter Knutsen (the Designer) 21:35, 28 February 2011 (UTC)

  • As far as my reminescences of latin go, Lucifer comes from Lux,-is (light) and the verb fero,-s,tuli,latum,ferre (to bring). I'd say the etimology fits perfectly. Mauro.
I've thought about renaming to something like Divine Liberator, Divine Lightbearer and Divine Cleanser. Including Divine in the name also makes it clear that they are expensive but appropriately priced Powers. --Peter Knutsen (the Designer) 20:33, 2 March 2011 (UTC)
