Alistair in Lore
The character Alastair may be a reference to the demon Alastor in Christian demonology. Alastor is the chief executioner and torturer for the monarch of Hell. He is an exceptionally cruel demon. The name 'Alastor' became a common place term in reference to evil spirits or foul tempered individuals. He is also featured and mentioned throughout Greek literature and mythology. Alastair has Greek origins, meaning "protector of men". Alastair is the anglicized form of the Scottish Alasdair, which is the Scottish (Gaelic) version of Alexander.
