Species: Biomorph

(----Powers----)

Technorganic / Cyber Mutant / Spacecraft Mimicry; Digestive Assimilation; Matter Ingestion & Super Eating; Powerful Bite; Multiple Eyes; Eyestalk Protrusion & Elastic Eye; Jet Propulsion; Interstellar Travel; Lateral Repulsion; Radio Frequency Detection; Electronic Communication; Spacial Flight; Vacuum Adaptation; Warp Jumping; Powers via Crystal; Airborne Attacks and finally Optic Blasts

(----Equipment----)

Thanks to her power of Digestive Assimilation, she swallowed these items and gained their properties:

- A Kuka Crewman's Plasma Ring -

A piece of jewelry from The Super-Sargasso Sea 's Kuka Crew that grants the wearer incredible and incomprehensible powers and abilities by harnessing the energies that permeate the Super-Sargasso Sea via the green Szemetite gem on the ring. When the ring is fully charged, the ring can grant it's wearer various functions along with Garbage Manipulation via manipulating a form of strange energy known as Trash Plasma.

Also this ring's connection to The Super-Sargasso Sea allows it's bearer to open portals that are about normal adult human size into The Sea from the universe they are in to not only remove the trash they are cleaning up from that universe and the reverse, but also travel from their universe, to The Sea, and into a different universe all together.

And finally, these rings have a miniaturized built-in version of The Rubbish - 2 - Energy Converter. Meaning that the ring can fire a beam that can convert the garbage and other forms of debris it targets into Trash Plasma that is then absorbed by the ring for the bearer to use as a power source. However the rings have a set limit to how much energy they can absorb before the ring explodes from the strain and take the bearer's arm with it.

While the Plasma Rings are fine with cleaning most normal messes and regular criminals, they are rather limited in strength on their own when it comes to tackling much tougher & bigger messes and even much more powerful criminals and even beings that could easily kill a normal Crewman.

To compensate for this, The Kuka Crew's researchers & engineers have developed various different kinds of equipment that uses The Plasma Rings as more of a rechargeable battery source and they augment the Trash Plasma the rings create for functions that best suit the job at hand.

With Lu-Nara, she can actually ingest the various kinds of trash and waste to make more Trash Plasma via the Rubbish - 2 - Energy Converter.

- A Large Chunk of Szemetite -
A reseuvoir of Trash Plasma that Lu-Nara can siphon Trash Plasma from and replenish when she eats different Space Trash. She can also make a large enough portal for her to easily pass through.

- Kuka Crew Uniform -
Special custom uniforms for each individual Crewman. These suits are modified to be powered by the rings themselves and grants then adequate protection from normal forms of damage and from the various contaminants one can experience while on the job.

While the suits on their own can create a barrier that can properly shield it's wielder against things like normal bullets, a hand grenade or a single bundle of dynamite, they are pretty much too weak to protect against things like multiple bundles of dynamite, most forms of superhuman strength, a Hydrogen Bomb or god forbid an attack that eradicates an entire country off the face of the planet.

- Kuka-Issued Multi-Lingual Earpiece -
A standard piece of equipment that translates the various languages that can be found in various universes, allowing the various members who have their own languages and dialects to properly communicate with each other and the different beings of various universes.

- The Trash Plasma Jetpack -
A standard-issue jetpack designed to be powered by Trash Plasma that allows the wearer added mobility and can allow them to use the pack for long distance leaps, sustained flight, elevation and even using the rockets as a means of attack.

(----Writer's Notes----)
So for those who were kids in the 90s, you may recognize this as one of the toys from Mattel's Attack Pack series. Which is a series that I'm actually pretty fond of.

Now I know you're gonna ask, "But Fiend!!! Isn't The Attack Pack still under copyright?!"

Well let me explain, you see the original toys had something called a patent. It's similar to a copyright, but with a few major differences. Here's A VIDEO by youtuber Crash Course that properly explains what Patents are in an overview. One of the main things about Patents is that they have a MUCH shorter duration length of 20 to 25 years before they expire. And from my understanding of it, the expired patent for the Attack Pack toys would allow you to freely (re)create the construction design. However, the visual likenesses may still have other protections where copyright is concerned. Specifically, regarding any original packaging and/or advertisements containing proper copyright notices. So, while you could recreate the figures' construction, you may have to redesign the final visual look (color scheme, emblems, etc). Basically, to play it safe, take the old figures and give them a different paint job or other new details. And I checked and while Mattel may still have the copyright for the Toys and an Attack Pack wristwatch, that's it. They never made any Attack Pack video games, shirts, cartoons, comics, or other forms of merchandise that they copyrighted. That means a new derivative work inspired by/based on toys whose patents have expired should be considered an appropriate usage outside the original medium it was created for (toys), if no other protections exist in the new medium (comics, cartoons, videogames, books, etc). Plus I checked the US Trademark Office and the Trademarks for both "Attack Pack" and the names of the individual figures have expired so there's that also. Though Mattel does have one trademark for "Attack Track" so a new name for your interpretation would be a good idea.

And with all that out of the way, let's actually talk about this character.

This character's name is Lu-Nara, she is what is known as a Biomorph or Biofreak in less flattering vernacular. Biomorphs are a species of mutation within The Super-Sargasso Sea that are kinda similar to The Enliven in a way. Except with a few major differences such as 1. They are specifically vehicles of various types. And 2. They are actually a form of bio-mechanical organism whose organic components are hidden within the vehicle-like form that they can reveal when threatened, are feeding or are on the attack. These organic components are based on different forms of animal life such as various mammals, insects, reptiles, birds, etc. Despite their animalistic attributes, Biomorphs are actually intelligent and sapient, able to properly communicate with other sapient species as well as develop their own societies on different islands within The Sea. Mostly localized on a chain of islands known as The Roadkill Isles. However some Biomorphs have been spotted in other locations within The Sea like with Lu-Nara. Though they aren't that numerous with only a couple dozen in other locations.

Speaking of Lu-Nara, she is actually found within a local Kuka Crew base that is located near The Roadkill Isles, and she is an offical Kuka Crewman. In fact there are a few Biomorphs in the Kuka Crew's membership besides her, though due to their physiology they only get sent out to worlds that they would more easily blend in without causing too much of a scene. Like with Lu-Nara where, due to being a spacecraft, she's mostly sent out to more galactic locations in different universes. While her job does usually involve cleaning the aftermath of big space battles since having so much metric tons of metal floating out in deep space could result in accidental collisions with other spaceships, she does end up taking the mission of providing aid to different groups in need of a hand.

While she looks like a normal spaceship, like other Biomorphs, she is a lot more fleshy on the inside as that green head actually opens up vertically, revealing both a fanged mouth and a large eyeball on the inside. She actually eats whatever trash she comes in contact with if she's low on Trash Plasma and, thanks to her ability of Digestive Assimilation, she can take on attributes of whatever she consumes. Plus since she actually ate a Plasma Ring and a large chunk of Szemetite upon her joining The Kuka Crew, she can actually focus her Trash Plasma through her large eyeball like it was a plasma ring as well as be able to make large portals that she can actually fit through.

Lu-Nara is kind of a rather strange one as despite being a large spaceship monster, she's actually pretty intelligent as her consumption of various broken spacecrafts while on the job has allowed her to assimilate the data within those crafts, granting her knowledge about the various species that piloted those ships, the various functions of those ships, and other various forms of information like if those races have a connection to the cosmic equivalent of the internet. Though since she is rather large she's kinda limited to the areas in her local base that she can frequent like the hangar bay where the normal vehicles are stored. At least until her Base's R&D Department make something like a Shrink Ray to fix that issue. Still she does enjoy the company of her teammates and does regale them with whatever new information she collected during a mission, even if those teammates aren't exactly engineering experts to properly understand it all.
