Character history
The Fix
Claire finds out from the Haitian that her mother died in a fire 14 years ago. Checking old newspaper reports, Claire finds a report that Meredith Gordon died in a fire in Kermit, TX, at the age of 21, along with her 18-month-old daughter. Calling everyone named Gordon in Kermit, Claire reaches a woman who claims to be Meredith, her birth mother.
Powers
Meredith has the power of pyrokinesis, the ability to create fire. (The Fix)
Notes
- Since "Meredith Gordon" has been reported dead, the woman to whom Claire spoke is presumably using a different first name now.
- After the fire, Meredith Gordon lived several places before returning to Kermit, TX:
- Cuernavaca, Mexico — 50 miles South of Mexico, City. (Of possible interest, Unnamed #6 was listed in Chilpancingo, Mexico, which is 90 miles from Cuernavaca.)
- La Paz, Mexico — There are at least 16 La Paz, Mexicos, none being particularly close to either Cuernavaca or Kermit. La Paz is also the capital city of Boliva.
- Meredith tells Claire that she "just got back to Kermit a couple of months ago". (Distractions)
