Description: Mysterious scouts and technicians for the Shadows, the Streibs move through the galaxy in their awkward and fearsome looking collector ships in search of test subjects. Using powerful stealth capabilities it slips past all beacons and defenses, then emerges from hyperspace with precision jump engine technologies to rip apart unsuspecting ships and snatch up any escape pods or survivors. After patching up the captives, fitting the particular ones with biotechnology keepers designed similarly as the ones the Drakh produce, the Streibs then move about hyperspace performing their dark experiments upon them at their leisure.

Although well equipped, the collector ship rarely fights a headon battle. Like their dark masters they prefer to hit and run or escape direct conflict to surprise their foe later, at a time and place of their choosing. If forced to battle however, their numerous laser arrays and powerful tractor beam can cause a great deal of damage and chaos before they choose to escape away into hyperspace again.
