They are quite fast runners, reaching speeds of nearly 70 miles per hour when unmounted, due to their lithe build, but cannot carry the weight of more than one person at a time. Striders are passive animals with no natural predators, easily bred in captivity, and come in a variety of light or pastel-type colors, the most common being white, pale blue, and pale pink. | Vindrite '''[[Crystal Strider]]s''' are a species of domesticated animals native to the crystals above Vindrgard.

Crystal Striders
Vindrite Crystal Striders are a species of domesticated animals native to the crystals above Vindrgard. The first humans to settle there considered them pests, due to their abundance and tendency to cut away large amounts of crystal, via the blades on its legs, for food. However, it was soon discovered that the Striders were extremely docile and easily tamed, and now Vindrite humans use them as mounts, similar to horses on other planets. They are quite fast runners, reaching speeds of nearly 70 miles per hour when unmounted, due to their lithe build, but cannot carry the weight of more than one person at a time. Striders are passive animals with no natural predators, easily bred in captivity, and come in a variety of light or pastel-type colors, the most common being white, pale blue, and pale pink.
Dragons
Vindrite dragons are less humanlike than the dragons on, for example, Euthora, but are still sapient and more intelligent than those on Phantasia. They are rare and reclusive, residing primarily in the mountains on the surface of the planet, but may claim an unsettled floating crystal away from human habitation. Vindrite dragons have absolutely no interest in either of Vindrgard's races, instead becoming figures of awe and fear for both, particularly because of the lasting generational memories of each Nidhoggr.

Most of Vindrgard's humans speak exclusively English, though those that frequent the AeroComm have developed a sort of "slang" used almost only in the AeroComm.

The Renewal Cycle
Every millennium, Vindrgard undergoes a violent cycle of destruction, change, and renewal. This is instigated by the era's Nidhoggr, a force of nature and eternal law that manifests itself as a mortal dragon. The dragon, near the end of its assigned era, begins to destroy human civilization before going to a superweapon, using its own soul as fuel. This results in the complete destruction of civilization and the Nidhoggr's death.
Rather than going to the Spirit World, [INSERT GOD OF DECAY] collects the soul and delievers it to Saaldyr, who safekeeps it until the soul has regained its strength and the world is safe enough to allow the Nidhoggr to be reincarnated as a dragon hatchling. As some humans do survive the cataclysm, this cycle of death and rebirth has caused an inherent fear of dragons to take root in Vindrite society, despite most wanting nothing to do with humans.
The Vindrite pantheon created this cycle in order to attempt to create a perfect human civilization- barring luck, only the most resourceful or resilient humans survive the end of a cycle, thus passing on these favorable traits to their offspring. Over the cycles, society itself has evolved so that each renewal is quicker and easier than the last one.
