Forces of Nature
The Forces of Nature are an army of powerful nature-themed monsters that are led by Viridi, the Goddess of Nature who plans to destroy the human race. They are not affiliated with the Underworld Army, but plan to stop Palutena's forces knowing that she will interfere in their plan to cleanse the planet of "human scum". Her reason for wanting to destroy humanity is due to that she views humans as destructive and hateful beings who have no respect for their fellow lifeforms on the planet. Viridi, being sick of their wars and mistreatment of nature, hopes to be rid of them with the army's ultimate weapon, the Reset Bomb which harms only humans and can spread foliage and animal life, thus resetting the world anew into one without humans and peaceful plants and wildlife in its place. The trademark feature of the Forces of Nature is a a green leaf.
Story
They first appear in Chapter 11, Viridi, Goddess of Nature, where their leader Viridi appears in the sky and launches a giant Reset Bomb that wipes out countless human armies in an instant. Pit makes his way through the newly created forest to find any survivors. Near the end he encounters Viridi's stone warrior, Cragalanche, which proves to be a tough opponent. Luckily Pit manages to defeat him.
Members
The top members of the army are gods who have also become fed up with the violent ways of humans and joined Viridi's cause. Cragalanche is the only exception to this, being a rock given a soul by Viridi rather than a god.
- Viridi (leader)
- Phosphora (general)
- Arlon (general)
- Cragalanche (commanding officer)
- Forces of Nature Guard (elite guard)
Other
Technically not living members, the following still play an important role in the army.
Troops
All of the army's troops are actually beings created from natural resources, such as dirt, wood, water and rocks to keep with Viridi's eco-friendly policy. Despite this they are all very strong and pose a serious threat. Viridi cares deeply for all her troops and considers them all her "children".
Trivia
- Viridi claims that the reason she installed Aether Rings in her base was for her army to use, however none of them were able to pass Driver's Ed, much to her chagrin.
