The Dominatrix is a gargantuan composite creature of nightmarish proportions. This gigantic bestial monstrosity is equipped with ripping claws and fangs, and a stunning profusion of symbiotic weaponry. Dominatrix are the brood queens of the Tyranid hordes, their children spawning into all the different Tyranid classes. Inside her are all the gene sequences of the galaxy's most lethal creatures, ready to be spliced and twisted by the Hive Mind.
