Silt Striders, sometimes called Stilt Striders, are giant arthropods, which can be up to 60 feet tall. They are used as a means of transport in Vvardenfell by manipulating exposed organs and tissues. Silt Striders are a resilient species whose tough carapace helps them survive the adverse environment of the island. Silt Striders survived the Ash Blight that exterminated many of Vvardenfell's native creatures, such as the Cliff Strider. Their numbers would however dwindle due to the coming of the Red Year, when the eruption of the Red Mountain killed most of them and destroyed their native habitat.
Their limbs can be attached to ships for deep sea fishing; while their young's legs can be used for fishing rods. Smaller Silt Striders known as Silt Hoppers are used as a mean of transport by Ashlander tribes. It is unknown if they are young Silt Striders or simply a minature species.
