Nanites are tiny nanomachines that live in a host's bloodstream, providing different functionalities depending on how they're programmed. The mob where the nanites reside is usually defined as their host.. | Nanites are tiny nanomachines that live in a host's bloodstream, providing different functionalities depending on how they're programmed.

Cloud control consoles also serve as storage, meaning that if they're disabled they will no longer sync with connected nanites, and that if all cloud consoles are destroyed, all backups will be lost. | Cloud control consoles also serve as storage, meaning that if they're disabled, they will no longer sync with connected nanites, and that if all cloud consoles are destroyed, all backups will be lost. | ||

Of course, the last part also makes it very risky, since anyone could upload malicious programs at any time if they have a console to do it with. | ||
