"The follow up and final stage of an adult praetorian. Once a queen has fully developed, a hive is considered to be at stage II. The queen has been thoroughly bred by her selected alpha male, and will continue to lay eggs containing a culmination of his and her genetically dominant traits. Though the male is no longer living, he will be the center piece of her "throne".

This particular queen is the result of genetic advancement from a superior host. She is noticeably larger than the standard queen, and is more physically endurable.

When a queen lays eggs, the same ovipositor of the praetorian is present, albeit much larger. For the queen to nest, she must have something to stabilize herself and her ovipositor to. Usually, a ceiling would be most ideal to be attached to, but is not necessarily required."
