Cloud Striders and the Veil
I've been musing about some lore that we got from the exotic quest for the glaive, Winterbite. I think that quest is more important than people realise in general, outside of the bombastic message at the end of it. There are some insanely interesting and potentially wholly revealing things, and I want to talk about it here at length because it's hard to parse through.
Long post ahead, with contents (highly recommended to open in a new tab or separately on mobile or you will be scrolling for a while):
The Strider and the creation of the Sidereal
Bluejay and the creation of the CloudArk as we know it
Stargazer and discovery of Earth
Maelstrom and the doubt in Cloud Striders
Imagery and symbology of the Cloud Striders
First and foremost, what happens to initiate the quest? Well, Quinn tells us that when the Witness used the Veil to make the link, that event briefly rebooted the CloudArk. As soon as it rebooted, the Vex noticed something, broke into the Hall of Heroes and destroyed five Cloud Strider memorials. They are irreplaceable, made from each Cloud Strider's core. When interacting with them, our Strand connected with one of the Cloud Striders and rebuilt the memorial. Quinn realised that if we connect with others, we will be able to restore all of them and figure out why the Vex wanted to destroy them.
We are able to restore them all and learn about them, how they connect to each other and what they occupied themselves with.
The Strider
The Strider, real name Mikaela Julaha, was the first Cloud Strider. In her lore, which is a version told in some sort of show for kids, we're told:
Before the Strider, we did not have a special protector for the city, and that meant we all had to fight every day. We had many weapons and implants to make ourselves strong, but not the special synthesis that makes the Cloud Striders special. And many more Neomuni had to be soldiers and transform their bodies to protect the city and get hurt.
Makes sense! Before Cloud Striders, everyone had to fight, which meant more people suffering and more victims, as well as more people having to use augmentations. However, there's a difference between regular implants and what the Cloud Striders have. Cloud Striders get a "special synthesis." How? Strider made the Sidereal.
What is the Sidereal? Fret not! We know! The Sidereal was created by the first Cloud Strider:
The Strider saw us suffering. She worried that fighting so much would hurt our hearts, and she knew that one person can make all the difference. So, she took her courage and her wits and her strength and created the Sidereal.
Do you know what the Sidereal is, niños?
That's right! The Sidereal is a special place where one person gives up their normal life to become a Cloud Strider and live for us all!
The Strider gave us the Sidereal. The Cloud Strider fights so we can have peace so we could be more than just soldiers.
It's some sort of a machine that does the process of becoming a Cloud Strider. It is somewhat described in the lore tab where Nimbus becomes a Cloud Strider, Foremost Vimana:
There are no smiles to go around when drills bore into bone until they taste marrow, and metal latticework replaces the dermis of their flayed-open throat. As the cradle lowers them into the Sidereal, the droning hum of a nonillion nanites fills their ears and drowns their fear.
The Sidereal is a special machine able to integrate the nanites into Cloud Striders so fully that they merge in a way that makes Cloud Striders what they ar; big, strong and also with their lifespans cut short. Intriguing process, possibly discovered by Mikaela through her own situation; Mikaela had an unspecified accident which led to her body being heavily augmented, but then those augmentations started aggressively deteriorating her body. It's implied that the lifespan part was unknown when this was first done, though the full timeline of these events is unclear.
Needless to say, Strider also found the whole topic of the exotic quest, the friendly Vex Mind called the Occlusion. Strider was the first to find it and she protected it and kept it safe, leaving it alone in the CloudArk. It is apparently integral to the function of the CloudArk; Quinn describes it as "loadbearing." I can't help but wonder if those two things are connected; if the creation of the Sidereal is directly related to Strider's discovery of the Occlusion or the other way around.
The Bluejay
Bluejay, real name Conrad Jain, is a really interesting Cloud Strider because he became one in order to have legal access to simulation tech. He was a tech genius and a game designer. He basically turned CloudArk into what it is today; at first it was just used for storage, but his simulation research and insight into the Vex allowed him to turn it into a real virtual space where people could go, live and play. Basically without him, CloudArk would still just be storage. And he researched the Vex as well:
So Bluejay helped us expand how we use the CloudArk—he made it a place we could play or even live, if we needed to. And when he made his game in there, he also learned that the Vex used the CloudArk, too. ... Bluejay learned he could jump from the CloudArk to the Vex network, and he sabotaged their machines from the inside. The Vex were very confident and did not think he could find them, so they were careless. And so Bluejay scared them, and they ran away!
Naturally, he found the Occlusion, from Strider's files and information. He left the Occlusion alone, clearly, which means that he knew its importance. Given his drive to stop the Vex, if the Occlusion was a threat or unimportant, he could've pushed it out.
In his other lore tab, the one that features a record of a hearing of him in court (he was arrested for illegal simulation research), he is arguing with the judges about his deeds, insisting that he is helping everyone. He is not remorseful at all and mentions how important his work is. Some relevant excerpts:
JAIN: We're the last of humanity, trapped in a bubble. Simulation is an entire frontier we can explore to re-define what it means to be human. And you outlaw it just because we fear others' bad experiences from hundreds of years ago!
It's unclear which experiences he's referencing. Possibly something from before Neomuna. Ishtar Collective was aware of Vex simulations and are possibly the ones who banned research of it. Only Cloud Striders, who answer to the council, are allowed to research it, and Conrad calls them "council's lapdogs."
JAIN: The CloudArk is an nth dimensional paracausal fold, and we use it to store library books.
C. BOUDAN: We use it to support the public need. Not as some playground.
JAIN: Play?! You bastard, I lost friends shutting down the Vex Isometry! You wouldn't be sitting there i—
Conrad knew a lot about the CloudArk and its abilities and possibilities. He was also aware of how it ties into the Vex Network and how important it is to expand the knowledge of it. And, unsurprisingly, he knew something about the Veil. In his own words:
It's... it's the shadow of every story and memory and hope we brought with us. The stars are off limits, but the Veil knits an entire universe for us. We just had to embrace it!
It's unclear, again, but we do know that CloudArk is powered by the Veil. Conrad, aka Bluejay, was pivotal in turning the CloudArk into what it is today, which means he must've known more about the Veil as well. This directly ties the Veil's power with the CloudArk; it's the Veil that "knits an entire universe" for them via the CloudArk where they can upload their consciousness and live inside unimpeded. These are all breadcrumbs for us to follow.
The Stargazer
I did a write-up on Stargazer as they relate to the question of why Neomuna never helped Earth during the Dark Age. In short, Stargazer (real name Laminak Li) was a mathematician before becoming a Cloud Strider and they were able to use math to re-discover the location of Earth and scan it for signs of life. Upon finding them, they went to Earth, learned of the Lightbearers, killed one, made contact with the Warmind in the bunker and deleted all records of the exodus ship and Neomuna to protect it from violent warlords of Earth.
Stargazer was aware of the Occlusion and named it:
Yes, hmm. How to describe... "Algorithm" is inaccurate but acceptable shorthand. It's... an occlusion. In the way? Perhaps. But if we ride along the edge... hm. Accelerated processing, gravitational lensing as applied to data.
Highly unclear what it means, but their story is tied to the math and science of rediscovering Earth. It appears they may have used this "algorithm" to do it. I'll briefly mention another Cloud Strider (Siegebreaker aka Telluride Magsi), the one whose memorial we first rebuilt and who first mentioned the algorithm:
Built a data crawler app to scour Siegebreaker's database for mentions of the other four Cloud Striders targeted in that Vex attack. He references Stargazer! And some kind of secret "number-crunching algorithm".
He thought it was a "number-crunching algorithm" and Stargazer claims that "algorithm" is not accurate enough. Is Occlusion responsible for this math and "number-crunching" to pinpoint where Earth is? Here, I also want to point out that "sidereal" is not a made-up word, it's a real concept:
Sidereal time is a timekeeping system that astronomers use to locate celestial objects.
That... can't be a coincidence given that the machine that makes Cloud Striders is called the Sidereal. Like, it's too much for the Sidereal to be called that for no reason. Perhaps this machine can be used for things other than making Cloud Striders or maybe the technology it's based on is also applicable elsewhere. This also relates to Bluejay who explicitly talked about the stars being "off limit" but that the power of the Veil and CloudArk can allow them to access the world otherwise. How do the Occlusion and the Sidereal tie into this? Are all of these things connected somehow?
The Maelstrom
Maelstrom was a military leader before becoming a Cloud Strider. Her real name was Sedderik Assur. In the kid's version of her story it's explained that she was a great warrior who fought off not just the Vex, but also other people causing problems. She founded the Assur Academy which trains people into leadership and they also train Cloud Striders.
It's also explained that she ended something called the "Uplift Coven" who were a group of bad people that wanted to be Cloud Striders. They hurt people and stole from people and Maelstrom stopped their attack.
What else do we know? "She was one of the city's greatest military leaders. Ended the Cobalt Occupation before she even became a Cloud Strider." (1) She knew about the Occlusion hiding in the CloudArk and she called it a "simulation echo" (2). This is interesting in relation to Bluejay, who was doing simulation research and knew of the Occlusion as well. Maelstrom's Occlusion data comes from Bluejay and Stargazer. She also said the following herself:
This little electronic oracle may be useful, but I don't like anyone standing behind me, whether they've got a knife or not. So the question is, tear it out and let the whole network fall apart? Or leave it in... and maybe things get a whole lot worse?
The "electronic oracle" she speaks about is most likely the Occlusion. Oracle is an interesting word to use; the Occlusion is somehow tied to Soteria, the Augurmind who was half-Warmind, half-Vex and had predictive technology. Like an oracle. Another interesting connection with Soteria is that Soteria's predictive technology was used to locate other habitable systems outside the solar system and predict the best ways to map them, reach them and colonise them. Aka we're talking about math and simulations to find planets again.
Maelstrom's other lore entry, the one that's a record of a log she made herself and isn't a watered down story made for kids, is her message to her rookie Cloud Strider partner called Geist. Maelstrom explains that she's sorry for shooting Geist, but that she had to and that she hopes this apology would be enough. It's safe to assume Geist survived.
Maelstrom focuses a lot more on what she finds to be her biggest mistake; creating the whole Cloud Strider training. She thinks it's her "stupidest idea ever" to pick twenty two kids and train them all to be Cloud Striders and then only pick one. She also thinks she didn't fully explain to them just how much the process of turning into and being a Cloud Strider takes from people.
She says she's right for picking Geist because:
All of you were driven, talented. But, Geist, you were the only one who didn't need it. You were the one who'd help this city as a civvie or a Strider.
The "it" Geist didn't need is presumably the augmentations and the full power of a Cloud Strider (aka the "special synthesis" through the Sidereal) since Maelstrom explains that Geist would've helped either way, with or without becoming one. At least ten of the group she trained turned out to be "terrorists with Cloud Strider training." Aka the Uplift Coven. Possibly Cloud Strider candidates who weren't too happy about not being given the luxury to become one.
And Maelstrom names some of them. Two to be exact:
And looks like I was right to not pick Ahpoor and Laghari and their little coven.
Laghari? Hm. I noticed this back then but there were a lot of names happening so I didn't want to jump to conclusions, but we still only have one Laghari character in the game: Quinn Laghari. The Hall of Heroes archivist who gave us the quest. Was she a Cloud Strider candidate who has a problematic past? Or was this an ancestor of hers? How old is she? Did she know Maelstrom personally? It seems like we have a lot more to find out about the history of characters we interact with. Even if this is Quinn's ancestor, it would still be interesting to find out what happened here.
Maelstrom ends her account with one more peculiar piece of information:
But I'm leaving you a present. Something my mentor left me: the kill codes for the Sidereal.
Interesting. Maelstrom's mentor (unknown right now) gave her the "kill switch" for this machine. And she passed it onto Geist, saying that once the Sidereal is destroyed and there are no more Cloud Striders, things would be better and "the rest of the city would have to step up" instead of "dooming another soul to this life."
Very strong words from Maelstrom. This obviously didn't happen for whatever reason. The Sidereal is fine, though we obviously don't know where it is or how it works. Given that it was created by the first Cloud Strider who was also the first person to find the Occlusion and this whole storyline hinges on the Occlusion since it connects all the Cloud Striders mentioned, I have a feeling the Occlusion has something to do with the Sidereal.
And given everything from Bluejay, as well as the fact that the Occlusion resides within CloudArk, both CloudArk and the Veil must be involved as well. Quinn even makes a comment about it at the start of the quest, something people may have forgotten by now, when our Strand recreates a destroyed memorial. Quinn is surprised and interested and then says:
I've read some academic studies on Veil transcription of the collective unconscious. I bet if I put you in cryo, I could—
The Veil, its ties to the "collective unconscious" and its ability to power the CloudArk are clearly relevant here when it comes to Strand, the memorials and this whole story. Quinn also thinks that we would be able to find out more if we were to be placed into cryo and linked to the CloudArk. Maybe one day!
Another thing that makes the connection is the imagery and motifs of the Neomuna symbols, especially as they relate to the symbol of the Veil:
This is from the in-game badge, but it appears everywhere. You can see it on Neomuna on the panels and everywhere in the menus for Neomuna collections and lore books.
The full part, the lattice? That's on the Cloud Strider Legacies lore book art, which is where all this lore is from:
This lattice can also be seen on Cloud Striders themselves, most notably on Nimbus' neck (also referenced in the lore I copied where Nimbus is lowered into the Sidereal where it's idenfitied as "lattice"), but also as a smaller motif on all Cloud Strider memorials and, I believe, as a motif on the Cloud Strider core which can be seen in Nimbus' hand in the training montage cutscene:
It also reminds me of the view of the Veil from below, as it's shown in this concept art:
Is there a connection relevant for any future reveals or is most of this just flavour and some background on past Cloud Striders, politics of Neomuna and its history? I feel like there has to be something more going on with CloudArk and the Occlusion, which naturally involves the Veil but also possibly the Sidereal and Cloud Striders themselves. And how does it tie into the Vex, their network and Soteria, whose arrival to Neptune was the catalyst for everything to follow?
This quest was A LOT and I think it was meant to be and that it was meant to give us leads and things to think about. It took me a while and a lot of re-reading and re-organising things to figure out the whole relatively chronological order of things, as well as possible connections between them and why this quest links these specific Cloud Striders and their experiences with the Occlusion, the Sidereal, the CloudArk and indirectly with the Veil. I'm still not sure where all of this leads, but these are starting points that were made to get us to talk.
If you've read through all and maybe it juggled your ideas and brain worms, feel free to share your thoughts on anything I said, any details I might've missed or things I might've gotten wrong!

MSM Fighting Game AU (PART 1)
Okay so I'm actually gonna try to take posting seriously this one time.
So I've been busy with a project outside of Tumblr where I've made the MSM celestial monsters into fighting game characters!! I will post movesets soon but here are some designs and a rundown on the lore!!
In this AU, almost all of the celestials are humans.
Attmoz is an angel who was a rockstar and part time super hero during the 80s-90s. Years later he retired and opened a guitar shop and tutors Glaishur on the guitar and drums
Galvana is a college student and mechanic in training at a research organization known as "Ethereal Co". But then she found the notes to create a material known as "Wubblyte", which was described as "a physical, Tangible, form of electricity" in the notes.
Vhamp is a robotic being who was discovered and reactivated by Galvana through replacing the Wubblyte core that powered them.
Loodvigg is the head scientist of a marine biology team at a rival research organization named "Prismatech". Prismatech also made Loodvigg, along with other employees at the organization into super agents. And at times they are missioned to hide their identity and steal information from Ethereal Co. At night
Plixie is a product of Prismatech's experiments, being a dead man brought back to life through means of cutting through his body and supplying an artificial blood-flow through the machines attached to them
Scaratar was a scientist-turned-biohazard arsonist after a poison related disaster happened in the labs of Prismatech. They also were an infamous villain in the 80s-90s, but has since been hiding, not trying to pull attention to themselves anymore.
Glaishur is also a college student who's taken a few hobbies while working. Galvana made the mech arms as a means to work with drilling, but in a turn of events Glashiur had to use them in defense.
In this AU it takes place after the superhero/villain events in the late 80s, two research organizations are still budding heads with each other.
#msm celestials#such a bold departure from the original source material#msm#my singing monsters#attmoz#galvana#vhamp#loodvigg#scaratar#plixie#celestial entropy#glaishur#celestial entropy msm

Fittergirl (Real name is Kathy Thompson)
Dripping wet, 98 pounds, it’s summer, carrying steel from one side of the room to the other. “Hey, , why you want to do this?” I think to myself, “She wants a baby and we can’t live on a woman’s pay” I say, “I was unhappy sitting behind a desk.” “Hey, Fittergirl, I thought “take your daughter to work day was YESTERDAY!” (laughter) I continue working. Home, soaking wet, exhausted, bruises on my shoulders from carrying pipes. “Kathy, can you go get me MacDonald’s?” “ok.” “Hey, Fittergirl? can you bring me a left handed pipe wrench?” My middle finger goes up. I decide I need to focus on something to be valuable. Because being a 98 pound girl won’t cut it. I decide I’m going to be a kick butt welder. I go to the hall and practice for hours each night. I get decent. Time for a new job site. New foreman, I’ve never met him before. “you ain’t like M.W. are you? ’cause she’s an asshole and you better not be like her.” “I don’t know her, but I’m my own person and hopefully not an asshole.” “Hey Fittergirl? do you wanna suck me off?” I carry a core drill up a ladder because there’s no stairway yet. No I don’t want to suck you off. “She wants a baby, that’s why I’m doing this.” Home. She hasn’t brushed her hair. There’s food in the garbage disposal from yesterday. She’s playing video games. “Can you get me MacDonald’s?” “ok.” It’s raining, next day on the job site. Mud. Slogging. The welder doesn’t show up. My chance. I say to the foreman, “I can weld.” ~skeptical look across his face~….”okay, let’s see what you’ve got.” New machine, plugs it in. I put on my welding hood; I’m going to totally impress him. The rod spits and sputters, just won’t run right. I felt sick. Terrified that maybe I didn’t know how to weld after all. “It’s not working right.” He curses and puts on the hood, picks up the stinger, and lo and behold, doesn’t work for him either. Machine was hooked to the wrong voltage. “Hey, Fittergirl? you shouldn’t be welding. you shouldn’t be here.” I was up near the ceiling. Somehow a shower of sparks happened to fall on the guy who said that. Foreman: “you won me over, you have that line over there to weld, I’ll give you K.Z. to pimp.” Home. It’s my thirtieth birthday. She throws a twenty at me and tells me to buy something. Lovely. “She wants a baby but I don’t think she’d be a good Mom.” “Hey, Fittergirl? Wanna go out with me?” Not really. My welding hood drops and he’s gone and she’s gone and all that exists is the glowing puddle of metal. Salvation. Resurrection. Zen. Meditation. Peace. “Hey, Fittergirl? You’re ok.” “I’m damned good, is what I am.” © 2021 Kathy Thompson, Madison WI

Cyare Verd *Beloved Warrior*
Chapter Six
We entered on the cat walk at the front of the room where we could get a good view of the training area. The 501st is lined up at the front just below us, Echo paces back and forth infront of them.
"Would you stop pacing you di'kut (idiot), you're killing the mood" Fives says.
If looks could kill Fives would be dead.
"Alright gentlemen, you know the drill. Offensive positions!" Rex says through the comm.
The squad scaters doing as their Captain asks. He then gives Echo specific directives.
"Copy that sir!" I know that's Echo's voice. In the short amount of time I've spent with them, I can already tell the differences in their voices. Slight. But if your listening you can tell.
With that Rex nods at Anakin who begins the simulation.
I watch as they squad moves like a well oiled machine. Flanking left and right to take out the droids. Echo barking directions.
"I have to admit, Echo's pretty good at this" I say.
Rex smiles, "Taught myself. Might sound funny but it comes more naturally to him than some of the others".
Ahsoka snickers "You mean Fives".
At that Rex deep signs. I giggle. "He's got some...growing up to do still" Rex says.
"He must have done something impressive to each ARC Trooper" I say looking up at Rex.
He looks over at me and before he can say anything the comms filled with yelling from the squad.
"We're pinned down!" Jesse's stress quite evident.
"Hardcase lay down some cover fire" says Echo.
"Tup and I can flank left side while you guys cut them off from the other" says Fives.
They nod to one another and immediately jump to action helping their fellow members pinned down. They were then able to continue on and over take "the castle", they called it.
I leaned past Rex briefly brushing his arm. I looked up and we locked eyes holding it for a second. "Ni ceta (sorry)" I say blushing and feeling electricity run up my arm into my core.
I wonder if he felt that too?
Rex doesn't say a word and I continue to reach for the button to speak into the comm system. "Nicely done boys" I say with a smile.
Echo proudly turns around and gives a playful bow.
"You didn't do it alone you di'kut" Fives chimes in.
Echo rolls his eyes.
"Now that you did that with blasters-" I start with a smug look toward Anakin and Ahsoka who look confused. "My turn, but without blasters." I say unholdersing my dual pistols and laying them on the desk.
"Hand-to-hand?" Rex asks confused.Â
"It's not so much hand-to-hand, more like not relying so much on those Deeces and grenades" I say pointing to his kama where his pistols are holstered.
The squad down below begins to whisper. Fives looks up "Psh! We can do it! I'm up for the challenge!" He says cockily.
"As fun as that sounds....I'm not treating you all for training injurys..." Kix chimes in "Besides we haven't really trained for that".
"Yeah I gotta agree with Kix" Echo says.
"Aw come on" says Hardcase.
"Well boys I've got good news for you...that's why they called me here!" I say proudly.
There's a series of enthusiastic whoops and hollers over the comms. Rex smiles and shakes his head.
Anakin's comm starts going off like someone is trying to make a call and he steps out to answer it before popping back in, "It's Master Kenobi, he wants us back at the temple" he says to Ahoska.
"Aw come on this was just getting interesting!" She says.
"Some other time Snips we gotta go" Anakin scolds her.
"Sometime I promise I'll teach you some of what I know" I smile at Ahsoka who seems pleased with that answer. With that, they head out leaving me and Rex together.
"Run the same scenario if you would Captain" I say giving a semi flirty smile.
He looks at me confused "again?" He asks.
I smile "yes but this time for me".
"Uh you sure? This exercise is meant for at least a squad."
He sounds concerned...it's cute
"I'll be fine Rex trust me but it's cute your concerned" I say with a wink.
He blushes and I head out the door down towards the floor of the training area.
"You boys are dismissed. Head up to the cat walk" I say very matter of factly.
"What are you gunna do?" Echo asks concerned.
"It's my turn to show you a preview of my combat training" I reply sliding my helmet on. The squad heads out doing as they were told.
"Are you sure about this?" I hear Rex's voice in my comms.
I turn around and look up to the cat walk. "Yes Rex I'm sure. Trust me" I say putting emphasis on the last part.
"Alright. Offensive position." He says before engaging a similar sequence.
Immediately 3 walls shoot up around me so I can't see the droids enter and the type of barriers the sequence brought up.
Deep breath...focus...
I close my eyes and slow my breathing before the 3 walls come down around me. I immediately jump into battle mode. Blaster fire (non-leathal or course) Flys over my head as I duck behind my first cover - half wall go figure - as I try to figure out my first move. I peek over the wall to get an idea of where the droids are. Two off to my right and one to my left.... If I can distract them for a moment I can slide behind them and use my whip cord to bring the pair down before they notice...that just leaves the 3rd...
I pull one of my knives from my boot and throw it towards the Droid on the left. While the other 2 were distracted I slide behind them using my whip cord to tangle their legs, causing them to drop their blasters and come crashing to the ground. I hopped on top of the pile they made and hit their disable button. I could hear a series of whoops and hollers in my buy'ce comm. I couldn't help but smirk.
With that 4 more droids made their presence known.... I grabbed my knife out of one of the droids and ran for more cover.
Reaching into my other boot and removing another knife, I simultaneously threw them - one in each hand - I simultaneously throw them at two of the droids and they fall to the ground.
Two left and I should be almost to the end...
Two more droids came out of no where behind me
Osik...
I ran towards one of the droids - blaster fire zinging by - in an attempt to get to it's disable button. It raises its blaster and begins to shoot. I raise my arms infront of my face using my beskar on my forearms to deflect the shots. This Droid was closer to the wall so as I made my approach I grabbed the blaster the Droid was holding, while running up the side of the wall- spinning the Droid around- and hitting the disable button.
Using my whipcord, I grabbed the blaster from the other droid and made my way over to it, jumping on it's shoulders and hitting the disable button.
The other 2 droids were getting close. It was time to deal with them and then I'd have 'the castle'.
