== 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 [[M2-Based Life-Forms|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.
