Week 11: This Hurts You
In the previous cycle, towards the end of the harvest of the Protheans, the Reapers created the Collectors through genetic manipulation and implantation of cybernetics of the captured Protheans. They were able to create a subservient race that they could use and control remotely to further their cause.
In arguably the darkest hour of Prothean history, a final plan to place one million Protheans in stasis pods to ensure the survival of the species was foiled when indoctrination agents alerted the Reapers of the plan. The Reapers sent their newly created Collectors to wipe out the remaining Protheans. All but one Prothean, Javik, were destroyed.
The Leviathans are an ancient aquatic race that dominated the Galaxy before the Reapers. The Reapers were in-fact designed after this superior race. The Leviathans possess the ability to control weaker minds and exert control over organic beings, akin to indoctrination. As such, they were able to sever the control links of some of the collectors and free them. While most die in the process, some survive as Awakened Collectors and fight the Reapers in honor of their Prothean Ancestors.
Conditions:
- Full Extraction on Firebase Hydra vs Reaper
- Earn 5 waves survived and 10 melee kills
Note: In the Leviathan DLC, Shepard and his crew are led to the planet 2181 Despoina in search of Leviathan. Firebase Hydra is most reminiscent of this aquatic world. Also, special thanks to Krauser for showing interest in an awakened collector challenge and coming up with some great ideas. This challenge is an incorporation of some of those with some of the story.
