Strider

Striders are a passive mob that can be used to ride on lava.

Spawning
Striders spawn in the Nether on lava. They have a baby variant that sometimes spawns on the head of an adult. Sometimes zombified piglins spawn on striders, and if that is the case they will spawn saddled.

Drops
Striders drop 0-2 upon death.

Behavior
The player can ride on a strider using a saddle, and can attach them to leads. Unlike most mobs, striders can walk on lava.

Striders can be bred using warped fungus.

Similar to how pigs are controlled using a carrot on a stick, striders are controlled using a warped fungus on a stick.

Striders are damaged by water and rain.

Striders start shaking if they walk onto a block that is not part of their "strider_warm_blocks" tag.

Striders can be bred if you feed them Warped Fungi, which spawns a baby variant.

A strider follows a player who holds warped fungus or Warped Fungus on a Stick, but stops following if separated from the player by at least 8 blocks.

Breeding
If striders are given warped fungus, they enter love mode and pair off to create baby striders, granting the player 1-7 experience orbs. The parent striders have a cooldown of 5 minutes before they can breed again. All babies obtained by breeding take 20 minutes to grow up. The growth of baby striders can be slowly accelerated using warped fungus; each use takes 10% off of the remaining time to grow up.
