Falling Moon + Viridis

Name: Falling Moon

Name meaning? This was the name this gal had previously! I think the meaning speaks for itself but it has that nice ring of a warrior cat name, you know?

Nicknames? Moonfall

Gender: female

Age: equivalent of a 40-year-old human

Species and/or specific breed: feline

Personality: She's a serious, intense cat with a mistrust for the world and an overprotective feeling for her mate Viridis, who seems to get into danger at every opportunity. Moonfall is slow to open up to others but it's clear she cares very deeply about those down on their luck. Perhaps because she's been in that situation in the past?

. A feline of few words, but one that's constantly watching. Perhaps a bit burdened by the difficult bits of the world, but still a deeply brave soul. Falling Moon treats everyone with deep respect, but she still is very hesitant to talk to those that she doesn't know. She speaks with a friendly smile but in all truth she's watching, making sure that she and Viridis are going to be okay.

. If she does get to trust you, expect a lot of sarcasm, perhaps an unhealthy amount of sugar, and sly smiles that she never quite explains.

Name: Viridis
Name meaning: green
Nicknames? Vir

Gender: male
Age: Equivalent of a 40-year-old human
Species and/or specific breed: feline
Personality: He might be quieter than would be usual for most (in fact he never talks), but he has the energy of a young kitten just off to explore the world. Viridis has an obsession with things that shine and a bad habit of wandering off at night to watch the stars and see new bits of Silvarum. He's probably really worrying his mate - sometimes he'll come back and she'll be waiting at the door of their little hideaway, a terrified expression on her face. He always feels bad about that, but he keeps on exploring anyway. There's just so much to see and so many cool things to find, and the danger can be scary but in the end it gives him so many good stories to tell.
. He would do anything for Moonfall - Viridis adores her so much and he often sees a shiny object and immediately things 'I need to bring this home for her'. He and her are both pirates, sure, but they are certainly land pirates rather than travelers of the high seas. And when it comes to sneaking about, searching for the next adventure, Viridis is one of the best.

About the snakes:
The green snake's name is Monument, and the pale snake has the name of Arthur. They both are very good friends and like to give Moonfall and Virdis snarky remarks and advice. While they might be talkative, they're also good for sneaking into small places the others can't reach.

History/Background:
Falling Moon started off as a simple cat dwelling in the lawless town of Peaceful. She learned early on in her childhood to steal to survive. One day, she tried to steal a loaf of bread from another feline - but the orange cat simply took the bread back, split it in half, and handed one half to her with a smile. The shock was so deep that she stood there for several long seconds before he beckoned her into his small home. This friendly feline's name was Viridis, she'd find out, and though he didn't speak, he took her in right away as someone in need of help, and the two became fast friends.
. They stayed in Peaceful for several years until, one day, the two decided to see some other parts of the world, hopefully somewhere a bit more friendly. They wandered towards the west, prepared to see what would happen next.
. They didn't plan to run into two snakes on their way to the far coastlines, but when they were confronted by the two scaled beings that seemed to want to follow them along, they begrudgingly accepted the two on their little journey.
. A long bit of wandering later, on the west end of Sunglow, the wandering group was captured by pirates, who invited them to join them in their crew. Moonfall ended up agreeing, and they all soon had a new home in a hidden cave, filled with pirates and lawbreakers. Perhaps this wasn't the best place for them all to be, but they soon found out that these pirates were a simple sort of family, and this may have not been perfect, but it was a new home of sorts.
Viridis, Moonfall, and the snakes ended up building a small place for them to stay a little bit outside of the cove, and they really became a simple group of their own.
