Leviathan 1. A planetoid sized, Craftworld class interstellar space ship originally meant for migratory purpose, is permanently docked at Site L7. The only one of its kind, seven was originally planned to be constructed. Its construction is never completed. Over decades, it becomes populated with humans, cyborg outlaws and rogue traders with a thriving black market. It experiences a population boom during  the outbreak of The Great War. Having consumed so much budget to construct it, the Terra High Lords Council of Seven Nations decide to abandon the project and channel the budgets to the war effort instead. It becomes a derelict over the decades. But Leviathan 1 becomes an independent, self declared sovereign entity. The population there ensure maintenance of the life support eco-system within. 
In the mid-eighties, Queen Mortis awakens, a sexroid formerly known as Morgan le Fay, which is corrupted by a former Nine Sister, Morgause leading to the formation and threat of the Underverse, a real space-immaterium warp rift overlay situated on within part of the mainframe known as Camelot, signalling the beginning of a life and death battle between the human populations and machines, signalling the beginning of the Underverse War. A member of the Cognate Society, the dhampir lord, Luthor Beans Jr., through his company, begins to mass produced a form of superhuman replicants started by his late father, and bring it to the next level of biorobotic engineering, known as The Tomorrow Kings and Tomorrow Queens. By 1986, the first generation of the replicants begin their assault against the Mortis Legion machines. Terra mega conglomerates commercialise the War for profit, by calling it the Underverse Tournament.  It also serves to placate Terra and surrounding colonies populations as well as to distract them from the reality of the economic and societal decay due to the ongoing proxy wars after The Great War. The government later agreed to the proposal that whomever wins would claim Leviathan 1 and recognise officially as a sovereign nation. It proves to be immensely popular amongst the population of Terra and even Mars which officially ban the broadcasting of the War, leading to many sponsors for the Luthor Bean Jr. Corporation and its affiliates for product placements, usually in the form of clothing and accessories which serves as the primary funds for the corporation. The Tomorrow Kings and Queens replicants initially gained much victory over the Mortis Legion, pushing them back and striking deep into the Underverse along the Rust Belt within the Great Waste just 100 miles from Byssos, the eye of the warp rift.
But in 1994, Queen Mortis raised a new Legion which defeated many of the superhuman replicants, ushering in the Ten Years of Darkness period. The primary device which replicate the TKs and TQs known as the DNA Organ via gene seeding within the Hatcheries also begin to suffer from irreversible deterioration and repair which requires the Standard Template Construct (STC) datastacks scattered along the Waste. The deterioration also causes rampant mutation within the DNA gene sequencing of the replicants, causing the Interloper Effect. 
Yet Luthor Bean Jr. and the remaining replicants stand defiant, defending the last biorobotic manufactorum, Hatchery 51 located at Grid 7174, against the cold, remorseless machines. The War then become stagnant, with either side neither gain victory nor defeat. 
Irimi Natsu is a third generation TQ. A nee-san, she is a leading navigator with close assault abilities, responsible for spearheading the Undernaut TKs and TQs together with another TQ nee-san, Irimi Fuyu, striking deep into the heart of the Underverse Warp rift to destroy the Mortis Legion's manufactorums as well as retrieving long forgotten STC datastacks. Both Irimi series are psychologically and physically modified to withstand the effect of the Warp without the need for the Undernaut noh gas mask. They are issued with teleportation homer beacon which sync with the Undernaut TKs and TQs when carrying out a mission. One of their greatest achievement is laying devastation upon a major manufactorum, Xena II and secure several key STCs near Byssos.
During a mission into the overlay, some of the Irimi series TQs were captured by the Mortis Legion, leading to the Queen Mortis corrupted version known as Irimi Hoaxers. They are easily recognisable with their Underverse mask but equally deadly and as dangerous as their corrupt free counterparts.
Irimi Natsu is a deadly close assault TQ. Apart from being a master Panzer Kunstler, she possesses a unique sword technique known as the Swordfish or Mekajiki.  Its basic is based on one of the six principles of an ancient Terra Eastasian martial art. It involves entering deeply around or behind an attack to defuse or neutralize the attack. Irimi would blend with or enter into an opponent’s attack to become one with the opponent’s movement and leaving the opponent with nowhere to strike. This movement is utilized during the moment of the opponent’s attack. To complete the movement, she moves out of the opponent's line of attack to the opponent’s blind spot. Executed with precision, Irimi can strike her opponent with great force, combining her attacking momentum and one's forward movement within split nano seconds through her dual wakizashi. 
Irimi Natsu and Fuyu are generally recognised as one of the last of the true third generation replicants from Hatchery 51 via the DNA Organ method of biorobotics engineering through gene seeds in vitro replication process.

And here's another TQ from ThreeA. Never have had enough of them though. My only gripe is the "old school" box design so favoured by ThreeA. It is completely sealed with a single large piece of sticker wrapping around the box. To open it I have no choice but to cut it open.
