Background[]
The Collector grew up a prepper in the Central Region with his father, who was a editor of a popular magazine, one that published hints and strategies for beating popular video games. Over the years his father amassed a massive number of magazines and newspapers, all of which he was free to peruse growing up. Not long before the Stranding, digital media rose to prominence, and that spelled the end for print publications. Thanks to the Internet, anyone could produce content, and anyone could consume said content, became their own editors. The Collector's father stuck with print, hearning the nickname “The Last Editor-In-Chief.”
After his father passed away, the Collector took up the mantle and continued expanding the collection.

While pining for the good old days, he know to do his best to live in the present, the reason for him to join the UCA and the network. Amazed by the chiral network, of how it can be used to send physical objects and make the transmission instantaneous, he also know that he must still call upon strapping porters such as Sam to transport medicines, food, and other organic goods. But, despite this, he think the UCA’s future may be bright.
At some point, the Collector bagin to write and monthly published the Hamamura’s Porter Chronicles, a series of articles on the world of deliveries, and the post-stranding world.
