    [synopsis] => Early in the 21st century, the Tyrell Corporation advanced Robot evolution into the Nexus phase - a being virtually identical to a human - known as a Replicant. 
 
Replicants were used Off-world as slave labor. Those who escaped to Earth were hunted by Blade Runner units, ordered to kill any trespassing Replicant on detection. 
 
In 2022, a Replicant attack on the Tyrell Corporation destroyed all records of existing Replicants and forced the company into bankruptcy. The surviving Nexus 8 models disappeared with the help of the Replicant underground. Many Replicants remained in servitude. 
 
In 2027, Aahna "Ash" Ashina, a former Blade Runner, rejoins the LAPD to once again hunt down fugitive Replicants. Her superiors are unaware that her loyalties are divided. Her lover, Freysa, is a leader in the Replicant underground. 
 
Ash's activities have brought her to the attention of Yotun, a rogue Nexus 6 that she failed to capture 12 years ago. Somehow this dangerous radical Replicant has lived far past his inception date.
