== Category 1 ==

Category 1 refers to humans who have been infected with M2 Nanomachines but are yet to show [[Machina Biology|external signs]] of their biomechanical nature. When a human is injected with M2 Nanomachines, there is a brief amount of time where the infection can be cured by overwhelming the M2 Nanomachines with something to counter their numbers and destroy them. However, the first priority of the M2 Nanomachines is to create the [[Machina Biology|Core]] within the infected person's chest. Once the Core is established, the infected person is virtually incurable, and they are now referred to as a Category 1 Machina.

However, the first priority of the M2 Nanomachines is to create the [[Machina Biology|Core]] within the infected person's chest. Once the Core is established, the infected person is virtually incurable, and they are now referred to as a Category 1 Machina.

After establishing the Core, the rest of the Category 1 Machina's internal organs will be replaced with the standard internal organs common across all Machina Classes and Types, such as the M2 Nanomachine production organs in the breasts or the [[Machina Biology|genitalia]] of the Machina. As the essential Machina organs are being completed, the M2 Nanomachines will also begin restructuring the body into the shape of a beautiful woman regardless of the Machina's original biological sex. Commonly, male humans keep their testicles when becoming a Machina. The body restructuring is primarily the result of the bones being converted into [[Machina Biology|Machinium]]. When the conversion of the bones is complete, the Machina will usually stand between 180cm and 220cm in height, excluding horns and heel-struts. When the biomechanical organs are all complete and the body has restructured itself, the Machina's brain will be remade. As the brain is converted to Machina biology, the Machina will grow [[Machina Biology|horns]] which are her link to the [https://wiki.machinamaincluster.com/index.php/Machina_Behaviour#Clusters Cluster]. The Queen-class Machina in control of the Cluster will download useful information from the developing Machina to herself, whilst deleting what she determines to be useless or otherwise unnecessary information from the developing Machina's mind. Next, the Queen-class Machina will upload a standardized database to the developing Machina containing factual knowledge and programming, which is installed in place of the Machina's original factual memories. Lastly, the Queen will apply a custom-made set of thought processes, like an operating system image, to the developing Machina’s mind so that she thinks like a Machina. After these changes the original entity and their personality are still present but the former-human has become corrupted into thinking and acting like a Machina. If there is no Queen present to do these changes, the M2 Nanomachines in her body will carry out the mental changes, though they will be much less optimized. The Machina then ascends to Category 2.

Category 2 refers to the stage of development where the Machina begins growing specialized biomechanical organs and [[Machina Biology|external features]] which allows them to be assigned [[Machina Classes|Class]] designations. In this stage of development, the Machina's body is still a mix of human and Machina biology; mainly human muscles and skin over Machina organs and bones. To fully replace her human biology, the Machina will shift from consuming organic food to inorganic substances such as metals in order to supply her M2 Nanomachines with the necessary materials. At the same time, the Machina's external biomechanical hardware will grow. The M2 Nanomachines within the developing Machina will create this equipment for her based off her personality and physical traits. Her external hardware during Category 2 will be quite basic, but after Category 2 it can be upgraded through the use of [https://wiki.machinamaincluster.com/index.php/M2-Based_Life-Forms#Larvae Larvae]. To assist her body in supporting itself, the Machina's spine will develop into the central part of the Machina's [[Machina Biology|Anti-Inertia Systems]], which significantly lighten her body and reduce the inertia of her movements. As the Machina's body progresses through Category 2, her womb will automatically create a Larva if one has not already bonded to her Core. The Machina will apply this Larva to her Core which will allow the Core to operate at maximum output as well as finishing up any remaining development, such as removing the Machina's human skin tone. After this, the Machina has completed development to become a Category 3 Machina.

== Category 3 ==

Category 3 refers to a Machina who has completed development. The maximum time required to develop into a Category 3 Machina is about 1 month, but this is shortened by injecting the developing Machina with more M2 Nanomachines or applying a Larva to her body. In addition, a few Queens are able to slow Machina development, so they can exceed 1 month as well.

In addition, a few Queens are able to slow Machina development, so they can exceed 1 month as well.

Now that the Machina's body has replaced all traces of human biology, she is able to operate at 100% strength, which can include inhumanly fast sprinting and reflexes, and lifting human vehicles without issue. As such, she is vastly stronger than a Category 2 Machina. Despite her body being made entirely of Machinium alloys, the lightest Machina will only weigh about 150 kilograms in total, whilst having a mass of 15 tonnes. This is again thanks to her Anti-Inertia Systems which are permanently operating at their full capacity. Finalized development also means the Machina has much more potent [[Machina Biology|breastmilk]] and [[Machina Biology|semen]].

A Machina's development now takes the form of a cycle where she upgrades one of her systems with a Larva, then attempts to become stronger through adaptation to tolerate another Larva, and so on. When a Queen-class Machina ejaculates into a Category 3 Machina it is called [[Blessing]]. In addition to receiving powerful traits belonging to the Queen, the Category 3 Machina will also receive [[Gyno Mode]] from her. Category 3 Machina must have an initial stockpile of energy to activate Gyno Mode, as it invariably consumes more energy than any Category 3 Machina can produce. Bonding with Larvae to attain additional sub-Cores is the only way to extend the limited amount of time the Category 3 Machina can remain in Gyno Mode.
