*Collin's name origin is possibly related to Nike, the Greek goddess of victory. It is said that the name "Colin", which is a shortened form of the name "Nicholas", is derived from Nike's own name. As such, the name is said to mean "victorious people", despite this creature being an Underworld monster.

Collin (コリンズ Korinzu) is a Centurion-like soldier enemy in the Kid Icarus series.

Characteristics

Collins resemble Centurions, although they don't have a visible face. They wear bright yellow armor and possess a pair of small, fairy-like wings on their backs. Despite the size of these wings, Collins are indeed capable of, albeit limited, flight. In addition, they serve as host creatures to the parasitic EelEyes that fly around them, although they in turn provide defense to the Collins themselves.

Appearances

Kid Icarus

These enemies appear in the Skyworld level only. Collins are not particularly a threat to Pit, since they only makes slight vertical movements, and doesn't have a ranged attack.

If a Collin is defeated, and it's Heart collected, all of the accompanying Phils will also disappear.

Manual Description
