Cloud Striders are [[ | Cloud Striders are [[Neomuni]] who have volunteered to undergo a process to enhance themselves with [[cytomachine|nanotechnology]], granting them enhanced strength and agility. The process also significantly increases their physical size, making them taller than even [[Empress Caiatl]]. The Cloud Striders' nanotechnology forms a layer of metallic armor over parts of their body and affords them powerful weapons and tools, including a compact silver surfboard-like device, called a skyboard{{Citation needed}}, that has a variety of purposes, including transport around Neomuna and both offensive and defensive capabilities in battle. | ||
However, these augmentations have drawbacks. In addition to a shortened lifespan of about a decade, only two Cloud Striders can exist at any given time.

The deeds of past Cloud Striders are commemorated in the [[Hall of Heroes]] in Neomuna, where servers containing personal data from every deceased Cloud Strider can be accessed by the Neomuni public. When a Cloud Strider dies, their data core is retrieved and incorporated into a new server monument within the Hall. | The deeds of past Cloud Striders are commemorated in the [[Hall of Heroes]] in Neomuna, where servers containing personal data from every deceased Cloud Strider can be accessed by the Neomuni public.
