Captain Viridian

Viridian was a Marine Captain with a strong sense of honour and justice; he was widely regarded as a good and righteous man who always did his best to respect and help others. To the public eye he was, in many ways, the perfect marine. Leading by example, he inspired many to join the Marines, including Everest and Cyril and was even respected by Trevor. He was tragically killed 10 years before the start of the campaign.

Viridian was the husband of Captain Verona and the father of Verona, the navigator and sniper of the Devil's Luck Pirates.

Appearance
In his older age, Viridian would have white hair, reading glasses and his Marine uniform would be decorated with purple and green medals.

Personality
Viridian was known as a kind, just and compassionate man. In many ways he was the perfect marine: he had a strong sense of right and wrong and the strength to back it up, but at the same time he would always show mercy wherever possible. He loved his family, especially his son, and tried his utmost to keep him safe.

Viridian also had a profound effect on people: he could easily impress others and get them to follow him and his example.

Overview
As a Marine Captain, Viridian was undoubtedly a strong fighter, but also had the ability to act as a military officer, lead and command troops, and uphold order among his soldiers. He had the authority to command a Marine ship and the personnel on board.

Verona
Verona is Viridian's son. Judging by Verona's reaction to his death, the two were very important to each other.

Past
At some point in the past, Viridian met and married another Marine Captain named Verona. The two eventually had a son who was named after his mother. Viridian was also regarded as a prime candidate for a Cousin by the Aeons, who approached him with an invitation to join them. However, Viridian turned them down.

Death
One day, when Verona was 12 years old, Viridian ran back into his house to tell his son that he had just made an important discovery. Before he could share what he had learned, he heard some people approaching the house and told Verona to hide. Once he opened the door, he met Dogtooth, later to be known as Captain Marrow, and was relieved to see that his friend had come to see him. He enthusiastically started telling him of his discovery. But, for a second time, he was cut off, this time by a gunshot, as Dogtooth killed Viridian, shooting him in the heart over and over, until he died. Dogtooth then had the house set on fire, destroying any and all traces of Viridian and whatever it was that he had learned. However, unbeknownst to Dogtooth, the Captain's tweleve-year-old son managed to survive.
