Collin

Collin is a Centurion-like soldier that is found hovering in the Skyworld. It's not really a threat to Pit since it only makes slight vertical movements and doesn't have a ranged attack. EelEyes rapidly fly horizontally around Collin, providing the only real offensive this creature has. It's more of an obstacle than an enemy. If Collin is defeated, and it's Heart collected, all of the accompanying EelEyes will also disappear.

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

"The warrior who used to fight in Palutena's army. Its spirit was taken by Medusa. It has no fighting power of its own though EelEyes leaps out of its body."

Kid Icarus: Uprising

Collins are confirmed to return in the game, looking less like Centurions and more like armored knights. On its official AR card, a Collin is shown wearing a red cape and having a single purple claw. It also appears to use jet propulsion to fly, and has what looks like two cannons mounted on its shoulders. It is currently unknown if the EelEyes that circle it will be returning as well.

Trivia

• 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.
