Tinder – Nanomei Function
The position of a Tinder user is one of the few within the Nanomei that is garnered true respect and admiration from their brethren. Tinder users tend to be very active outside in the Meat as well as within the Aetherium. They are considered some of the most fearless and dedicated members within the organization. While their dedication to the Cause is nowhere near as fanatical as a Tov user’s their belief is absolute. They would rather die than submit to the government and corporations of the world.
Like many other Nanomei users, their real world appearance could be anything. While within the system, their physical appearance resembles that of their rebellious allies. However, the one distinct feature that all Tinders carry is their flag. Sometimes this manifests as a homemade torn piece of cloth, quickly daubed with some sort of revolutionary symbol. Other times it is banner flying the colors of the enemy, but torn, burnt, and desecrated in hopes of showing the enemy that the Nanomei will not back down.
Because of their stern resolve, these users control one of the most important programs within the Nanomei’s arsenal. while Tinder programs lack offensive capabilities, their mere presence is enough to turn the tide of a confrontation. The sight of Tinder bearing a Nanomei flag fills other users with pride in the fact that they are finally taking a stand against their enemies. Within the Aetherium, these programs can manipulate data coming to and from allies, allowing them to move faster and unhindered, or to overdrive their combat systems at a cost to their defensive ones. While they may appear unassuming and worthless, it is a fooling enemy indeed that underestimates the power of Tinder. Because of their integral role as both a morale and digital support programs, it is incredibly rare to find a Nanomei force without the familiar sight of a battered flag rising above the ranks.
