Spectre badge

Spectre is an abbreviation for Special Tactics and Recon, an organization of special agents for the Citadel Council in Mass Effect.

Spectres are not trained, but chosen. Individuals forged in the fire of service and battle; those whose actions elevate them above the rank and file.
Spectres are an ideal, a symbol. The embodiment of courage, determination, and self-reliance. They are the right hand of the Council, instruments of our will.
Spectres bear a great burden. They are protectors of galactic peace, both our first and last line of defense. The safety of the galaxy is theirs to uphold.

Spectres are individual agents authorized by the Council to take whatever actions they deem necessary to protect the interests of the Council races. Spectres typically operate independently of each other, gathering whatever resources (be they personnel or material) that they need to perform their duties.
