Overview
No. Not that kind, you dirty bastards. It's a Tyranid. (I have a horrible feeling that didn't turn off as many people as it really should have). Right, down to business.
A Dominatrix is a gargantuan composite creature of nightmarish proportions, equipped with ripping claws and fangs, and a stunning profusion of symbiotic weaponry. Dominatrices are the brood queens of the Tyranid hordes, their children spawning into all the different Tyranid classes. This means that along with the Tervigon and the Norn Queen, are one of the few identifiable females in the Tyranid swarm. Inside her rides a Norn Queen, with all the gene sequences of the galaxy's most lethal creatures, ready to be spliced and twisted into new monstrosities.
The Dominatrix is a Tyranid creature that is essentially a cross between a Hive Tyrant and a Hierophant Bio-Titan. Its role revolves around wrecking ridiculous amounts of shit and acting as a synaptic lynchpin and General, using its advanced mental capacities to dominate large numbers of nearby lower level 'nids, making them basically extensions of the Dominatrix's body.
However, there are no updated models or rules to accurately represent the Dominatrix on the tabletop, save Epic 40k's Bio Titan figure. So should any Mad Bastard get into his head to make one he will be bitterly disappointed to find that the Dominatrix has not been relevant for quite some time.

The Dominatrix is a single model armed with a back mounted dire bio-cannon, two dire bio-cannons, a single pair of monsterous sything talons. It may also turn the minds of those around it to pulp with its psychic feelers and mind spikes.

Wargear:
- This model may replace its back mounted dire-bio cannon with a norn queen for 400 points.
Abilities:
- Bio-Titan warp field: Trying to get an attack to land on such a beast when it’s psychic might is channelled against you is a monumental task.
- This model has a 5+ invulnerability save.
- Norn queen: Some Dominatrix’s carry norn queens on their backs, at which point the minds of all before it become blank, and void, as the shadow in the warp consumes all.
- A model with a Norn queen has a 4+ invulnerability save, adds +1 to its casting rolls in addition to that shown on the damage table and knows all psychic powers associated with the TYRANID keyword (which means tyranids and genestealer cults). In addition to this, all other non-tyranid psykers on the battlefield suffer -1 to their manifestion and deny rolls, in addition to any shadow in the warp effects.
- Massive psychic backlashing: If a dominatrix was ever slain the psychic backlash caused by its death would cripple the tyranid assault, and if it happened to be carrying a norn queen then the backlash would be felt in orbit.
- When this model is slain all tyranid units (including those in reserve) suffer D3 mortal wounds and all PSYKERS on the battlefield suffer D6 mortal wounds. If the dominatrix was carrying a norn queen then all tyranid units would suffer D6 mortal wounds, all tyranid model in reserve would be instantly slain and all PSYKERS on the battlefield would suffer 2D6 mortal wounds.
This model is a psyker, it can manifest 3 spells each turn, sent 3 spells each turn and knows 3 powers from the Hive Mind Discipline, and may reroll one dice when determining which powers it possesses.
