Viridi | Viridi appears in ''Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS'' in the background of the [[Reset Bomb Forest]] stage. A static image of her projection will appear in the background while she yells, "Good riddance human scum. The world's better off without you!", just moments before the [[Reset Bomb]] hits the stage. | ||
She also appears in the Wii U version as a stage character in [[Palutena's Temple]] when Pit activates his [[smashwiki:Pit's Smash Taunt|Smash Taunt]], where she will talk about the other fighters. | |||

''The goddess of nature, she believes it is her duty to return heaven and earth to their pure states, and so she labels humans as contaminants of nature that should be eliminated. She butts heads with the human-protecting Palutena but hates the soul-stealing Hades even more.'' | |||

*Viridi could be based on any number of Greek goddesses of nature such as [[wikipedia:Gaia (mythology)|Gaia]], [[wikipedia:Artemis|Artemis]], and [[wikipedia:Demeter|Demeter]]. Her name however comes from the Latin word, ''viridis'', which means "green" and/or "youthful", which fits her character quite well. Given that she calls her soldiers, "children", and the fact that her Japanese name comes from the English word, "nature", she may be inspired by the concept of Mother Nature, the personification of nature itself. | *Viridi could be based on any number of Greek goddesses of nature such as [[wikipedia:Gaia (mythology)|Gaia]], [[wikipedia:Artemis|Artemis]], and [[wikipedia:Demeter|Demeter]].

*Viridi has her own domain which you use late in the story instead of Palutena's. When you go back to Palutena's domain, it can be changed back to Viridi's in the hidden options menu. You can donate hearts to either goddess this way. | *Viridi has her own domain which you use late in the story instead of Palutena's.

*In a conversation in Chapter 16, it is strongly implied that Viridi may have feelings for Pit. This would explain why she helps him in later chapters. | *In a conversation in Chapter 16, it is strongly implied that Viridi may have feelings for Pit.
