Compelled Collective
Overview
Minds:	The Conductor
At war with:	Vanguard House of Dusk Shadow Legion House of Salvation
Encountered:	Upheaval on Nessus

The Compelled Collective is a recently discovered Vex programming subtype found on Nessus. They are predominantly made of frames of the Sol Collective with silica-colored collars that allow Vex Precursors (referred to as Choral Vex) to seemingly control them.

History

Not much is currently known about these particular Vex. However, what is known is that the Compelled Collective first appeared not long after a mysterious paracausal object broke off from the Traveler after the death of the Witness and crashed on Nessus. Almost immediately after, the Vex on Nessus began to change and exhibit strange behaviors as confirmed by Guardians patrolling Nessus. All members of this collective act very differently from other collectives, ranging from lesser frames speaking to each other, a Hobgoblin waving at a Guardian before it was destroyed, or even fighting against Vex from other collectives.

After Saint-14 went down to Nessus to conduct his own investigation, he encountered what appeared to be the leader of this collective that he calls The Conductor, who told him that he was a facsimile of the real Saint-14 who died long ago.

Structure

While maintaining the same structure as other collectives, they have an unknown leader that looks very humanoid in appearance.
