I actualy felt sad for them. After finding out what they realy are and that the leader is being controled by Harbinger realy made me sad. Also did anyone see the leader holding his claw up to Harbinger as he releases control?

Their true race died out a long time ago, I am liberating them. With a gun.

Its meant to be tragic what happened to them, a warning.

That is funny! I gotta stay out of the spoiler section though. Pretty obvious I guess. Sorry if that seems insensitive. Just happy I got my stupid armor.

I have a feeling they were indoctrinated for some time already. Used as a sort of eaves-dropping force to keep an eye on the new races for the reapers.



They really reminded me of the 'shadows' in babylon 5. Especially their heads.

Quite sure they were atleast part of the inspiration.

50,000 years ago, to be exact.

I think Harbinger was usingf them to see how the races where evolving. It becomes realy clear when Harbinger tells the leader that he has failed and releases his control, the leaders eyes stop glowing and he tries to plead. The collectors, like the keeprs are just tools, just like the Geth and the Rachni (too much evidence is given that the Reapers forced the Rachni into war)

Yeah, it's tragic, and it's actually a plot twist that surprised me (well done, BioWare). They were sort of tragic figures after meeting Vigil on Ilos, but now even more so. A good story always needs that. I wouldn't be surprised if we'll encounter other slaves of theirs.

There are two things I'm really wondering about.

First, what are the criteria? Why not just obliterate them? Why choose them as slaves, and not some other race? Why spend the time to transform them instead of just building your own army of invisible mechs that shoot dark matter or something? Clearly they have to have a logical explanation, not just "for teh evulz".

And second - the Hanar are going to be devastated. Do you realise what it means? Well, of course, if word gets out what the Collectors are.
A Hanar religious civil war. Now that's something I'd like to see. Quoting Joker: "Take pictures!"

I agree completly, I even shed a tear when I realized that their "Controler" was being controled himself by Harbinger.
