Q: Can you tell us more about Spectre? Saren is the youngest Turian Spectre, and Commander Shepard is the first human admitted. What is the significance of this, and is there a previous relationship between the characters?
A: Known throughout the galaxy, the Spectres are elite military operatives comprising select individuals from all the civilized races. Spectres have freedoms and jurisdictions far exceeding those of normal citizens, giving them access to areas and information that is normally restricted. Spectres have the authority and ability to deal with enemies who threaten the stability of the galactic community and often operate outside the bounds of galactic law, using whatever means necessary to preserve order.
The history of Saren's involvement with the Spectre organization, and his relationship with other Spectre agents, is expanded upon in the prequel novel "Mass Effect: Revelation" which will be released later this year.
