Collectors

Character from Mass Effect by BioWare

Enigmatic beings from beyond the Omega 4 Relay who trade in biological specimens and have been abducting human colonies — revealed to be Protheans, converted by the Reapers into their instruments.

Also known as: Collectors, The Collectors, Harvested Protheans

What They Know

• Are Protheans, converted by the Reapers over fifty thousand years into biological tools for the current cycle; the Collector General is the most directly controlled
• Operate exclusively from beyond the Omega 4 Relay; their appearance in Citadel space is rare enough to be treated as legend
• Have been abducting human colonies systematically in the period before and during ME2; their harvest materials are used to construct a Human-Reaper at the Collector Base
• Harbinger — one of the oldest and most powerful Reapers — directly controls the Collector General and can possess individual Collectors during combat
• Their biological technology and armaments are Reaper-derived; Seeker Swarms can paralyze targets for collection without damage
