This Spirit is a collection memory quest with 8 memory fragments, with a 16-minute overall time limit. As you relive its memory, you can see the Star Collector dash between the two split halves of the broken boat as stars twinkle merrily in the night sky. At the end of the memory, the Star Collector sits at a desk covered in star lamps and counts the many stars overhead, chuckling to themself with glee at the numbers. The Little Prince then enters the scene and asks the Spirit, "What do you do with these stars?" The Star Collector puts their hands on their hips, nodding as they proudly answer, "I own them. Five-hundred-and-one millions of them." "Why owning the stars?" The curious Little Prince asks as the Spirit continues to count. "It makes me rich," The Star Collector says. Unsatisfied with their response, the Little Prince questions them once more, "Why do you want to be rich?" Chuckling as if the answer was obvious, the Star Collector replies, "To buy more stars." The Little Prince tilts his head and contemplates aloud, "The grown-ups are certainly altogether extraordinary."  Relive the Star Collector memory Expression: The Hand-Rub Expression has 4 Levels.

The Star Collector was originally called the Shrewd Merchant during Beta testing. The reason this was changed is because of the antisemitic implications of the 'Hand Rub' emote belonging to a mercantile Spirit. Interestingly, the icon showing the gesture itself and the matching Lvl. 3 and 4 animations were unchanged.
