Keepers
An enigmatic bio-engineered race, the keepers are the caretakers of the Citadel space station. An insectoid race found only on the Citadel, the keepers appear to be bioengineered. No one knows their true origins, as they were already present on the Citadel when it was first discovered by the asari. Once other races began arriving, the keepers sprang into action, doing everything in their power to assist the new races in utilizing the Citadel. This behavior has led most to theorize that the keepers were created by the Protheans to assist in running the station. Attempts to learn more, however, have been stymied by the keepers themselves. Scans have revealed nothing, and any attempts to capture keepers have resulted in the creatures self-destructing, dissolving into puddles of proteins and minerals.
