Upset, he starts to cry and reveals to Luz how he was imprisoned and reveals that all of his previous friends have lied to and betrayed him. In an attempt to get him to see the error of his ways, Luz, Eda, and King take him on a tour of places that helped them bond. After this, while at the Hexside Grudgby field, the Collector sees students hiding behind the bleachers and tries to befriend them, but they run away in fear. At the Knee, their message to the Collector starts to sink in when he hears breathing in the distance and the group realizes Belos has possessed the Titan. He has tan-yellow skin, bushy white hair and eyebrows, an upward-pointing nose, and a large pale blue blotch that eclipses the left side of his face, giving the right side the appearance of a crescent moon shape. Ages ago a young Collector proved to be a distraction to the older members of the species, known as the Archivists.
Siblings
He asks King to read him a story, and King obliges, pushing the stack of stone slabs to fall backward and wrap around the planet structure in front of him, and opens the book to read. King reads the first paragraph and looks at the second one, but the Collector hurriedly asks him to not read the next part and skip to where he "fixed it"; i.e. scratched it out and wrote a new one. Pulled together from rediscovered masters tapes of the late-night talk show Night Owls’ infamous 1977 Halloween broadcast, finally audiences can witness the unbelievable events as they happened. The world-first release of Late Night With the Devil is here in collaboration with directors Cameron and Colin Cairnes and released on Blu-ray as their preferred format. The Owl House is a partially defunct American animated television series created by Dana Terrace that aired on Disney Channel from January 10, 2020 to April 8, 2023. During the war, a Collector (either an Archivist or someone completely unrelated) became the deity of the Trappers under the alias "the Grand Huntsman", implying they were a great Titan killer.
Eda's Requiem
Despite his jealousy and Puppet Raine's claim that Luz has come to defeat him and take King away, the Collector still shows a desire to befriend her, submitting her, Eda, and King through a series of dangerous games in hopes that they would want to be his friend. But when that doesn't work and he is beaten in all of his games, the Collector goes to sulk in a corner, opening up to Luz almost immediately when she approaches him, telling her their story and venting with her. Feeling bad for the Collector, Luz demonstrates how she, Eda, and King were misunderstood as well and how they didn't fit in either, showing the child several places of the Boiling Isles that helped them improve their friendship and how kindness and forgiveness help a long way. The Collector listens to Luz and takes her lesson by heart, showing a desire to improve his ways and make real friends.
Understanding Willow
He starts turning people into puppets, much to King's dismay, in order to help with the game, and creates spies to help with this. He also captures Eda, and stores her in a room guarded by puppets, under the impression that she's in her Owl Beast form and can't change back, despite this not being the case. The Collector rejoices at the fact he will soon be free from his prison, stating there are "so many games" he wants to play once liberated. He adds that, if he and Belos require a third player, another Grimwalker could be made; Belos rejects this idea, saying he will only make another once Hunter is dealt with. The Collector then painfully begs Belos to release him early, whining that the human did promise. Belos also rejects this, saying that the Draining Spell must first work, which the Collector himself promised in the bargain.
Collectors are immensely powerful beings, capable of warping reality, from levitation, transmutating beings, altering reality, moving celestial objects, conjuring objects etc. In the present, the Titans are completely extinct with the exception of the young King Clawthorne. At the same time, the only Collector that is around for the events of the series is the young, childlike one that was sealed into the In-Between Realm. This implies that they either moved from the Demon Realm (or at least this specific planet), were imprisoned in an unknown place, or went extinct during the Titan-Collector War, making it a mutual kill for both sides.
Making new friends
The Titan Trappers exist to the present day, seeking to find the last Titan left alive to free the Collector from his imprisonment, having mistaken him for the Huntsman. Eventually, a set of Collectors known as the Archivists came across a planet that was home to the Titans, a gigantic species whose magic could cancel out Collector magic. They send out their younger brother to investigate, and the child soon befriended the giants. Afraid of their power, the Archivists waged war on the Titans, possibly on their own or with help from other Collectors. They were joined by the "Titan Trappers", a cult that, as the name implies, trapped Titans by dressing up as them, allowing the Archivists to kill them. Right afterwards, he honors his end of the deal and ends the Day of Unity by moving the eclipsing moon out of the sun's way.
Scheming With Belos
He is the younger brother of the Archivists and a member of a race of cosmic beings who was banished to the Demon Realm and trapped inside a tablet by The Titan, remaining in their for millenia until the Titan's son King Clawthorne freed him. Not one of Belos' followers, or even anyone on the Isles, were aware of their Emperor's partnership with the Collector except Kikimora. When Luz revives and saves them from Belos's attempt to crush them, the Collector, remorseful and determined to redeem himself, volunteers to keep the Archives afloat to keep everyone safe while Luz, Eda and King deal with Belos. Once he's defeated, they float back to the Archives, at first afraid that the Hexsquad will punish him but delighted when Amity helps him up.
Watching and Dreaming
In contrast to the deceitful and manipulative Emperor Belos, the Collector is honest and holds pinky swears for instance to be sacred. This is shown when he was upset that Belos lied revealed his deception and betrays him, and later when he kept his word to stop the draining spell when King freed him. The Collector's design was inspired by the works of Remedios Varo, a surrealist painter known for her astrological imagery.[13] Other inspirations for his aesthetic included puppets and clown dolls with star motifs,[11][12] which is shown in his ability to turn people into puppets.

Powers / Skills
Killing the Titans didn't stop the Collectors from collecting other species, which was seen when the Huntsman transformed the Owl Beast into a curse. As time goes on, Philip adopts the image of Emperor Belos, establishing dominion of the Boiling Isles. The Collector remained his closest ally, and together they concocted a complex plot that would complete their common goal on the Day of Unity. Not one of Belos' followers, or even anyone on the Isles, were aware of their Emperor's partnership with the Collector. While he started out villainous, even helping Emperor Belos in his genocidal plans, he ultimately turns out to just be a lonely child that was manipulated and didn't know the consequences of his actions, and would redeem himself after befriending the heroes.
When attacking, a crescent moon symbol appears on their foreheads (this being the projectile used to cast their puppet spell), and both of their eyes face forward to lock onto their target. The Collector starts playing with King and his puppets, acting out scenes that very loosely depict events in the show. At one point in time, Terra Snapdragon played Eda, but later got turned into a puppet due to not doing a good enough job. King tries to get him to stop, but he refuses and they head back to the Archive House where he has Odalia Blight put away the puppets and serve Eda pizza bagels.
When assistance arrived in the form of Emperor Belos, the Collector helped the emperor with the Day of Unity in exchange for his freedom. Once the event proceeded as planned, Belos went back on his word and abandoned the Collector in his prison, only to be freed from it later by King. Upon his release, the Collector defeated Belos, and took over the Boiling Isles, turning it into his personal playground, with King as his bound companion. When they heads where the possessed Titan is, the Collector tries Luz’s lesson about kindness and forgiveness on Belos, but when he attacks the child, Luz intercepts the blast, disintegrating and dying in front of him.
Like with Luz, the Collector doesn’t think much of Amity at first, saving them from Belos with ambiguous intent and only seeing her as another potential playmate shortly after his release. In "Watching and Dreaming", the Collector is befriended by Amity after she gives him a hand when he collapses from exhaustion after struggling to keep the Archives afloat for so long. At first, the Collector is afraid that the group will dislike him for everything he has done, but tearfully takes Amity’s hand when she helps him get up. When everyone reunites at the Owl House after the defeat of Belos, the Collector and Amity are seen happily talking with each other. However, the Collector wakes up soon after to find Raine Whispers, whom he turned into a puppet, moving on their own.
Convinced and manipulated by his words that Luz has come to defeat them, the Collector has decided it is time to play "a new game" and angrily snaps his fingers. In "O Titan, Where Art Thou", King enters the In-Between Realm in his dreams, where he finds the Collector imprisoned inside an orb. The Collector goes into an insane rambling on how he's almost free and how he won't be alone anymore. When King calls out to the entity, the Collector's silhouette appears on the orb, where he notices King.
Fearing the titans' power, a group of the Collector's siblings, known as the Archivists, sent the Collector down to the Demon Realm under the impression that he would be playing with the titans. Upon arriving in the world, the Titans welcomed the Collector and quickly bonded with him, and he took a liking to their kids because of how cute they were. Unbeknownst to the Collector however, the Archivists slowly took out all the other titans, which left the only remaining titan furious at the Collector, believing he was the one responsible. The Collector wears a cloak that has celestial decorations on it; one side black with moons and stars, and the other grey with black suns. As a spirit, it appears as a two-dimensional being with a half-split design; again with one side black with three sun symbols, and the other grey with three crescent moon symbols.
With a temperamental nature and great power at his fingertips, the Collector is a dangerous and unpredictable force that will not hesitate to punish those who upset him and terrify others into obeying his demands. When the Collector plays his games with King, Eda, and Luz, he briefly takes the form of a Pac-Man-like creature with a rounded head and a wide, toothy maw. What happened to the other Collectors is unknown, but it is believed as life developed in the Demon Realm and new species of demons were born, the Collectors maintained a sporadic presence, capturing rare magical beasts for their collection. Contact with the forerunning demonic species occurred, some even worshipping the Collectors, believing them to be gods and in awe of them wiping out the Titans. The groups that formed were the Titan Trappers who mimicked the actions of the Collectors in hunting down any Titan infants. Collectors are humanoids dressed in robes with iconography related to the day and night.
It doesn't take long for the disheartened Collector to open up to Luz as soon as she approaches him, showing his desperation in wanting someone to understand what he’s been through. When she, along with Eda and King, shows him how they became friends and takes him on a trip around the isles recalling their adventures, the Collector starts to open up more and bonds with them, starting to see a new dimension to friendship he never realized before. The Collector wears full-body clothing resembling robes or pajamas with an oversized collar and sleeves. The sleeves have these colors switched, with the right sleeve being periwinkle with blue suns and the left sleeve being blue with periwinkle crescent moons, as well as a magenta border on the rims of the cuffs. He wears a dark purple nightcap with magenta trim and a light star-esque spotted pattern.
