-->'''Car''': Nissan [=GT-R=] Premium



* HateSink: Quite possibly Payback's most despised character. This has gotten to the point where hating Natalia Nova in and of itself is a meme in the community.



* RichBitch: '''''Ouch'''''. There is no person more accurate for this trope than Natalia Nova.
* RichInDollarsPoorInSense: Looks down on the heroes' choice of cars. Even if they're driving cars that would be close to her Huayra in class.

Although the 2015 reboot of ''Need for Speed'' had near-realistic but cheesy live action, drawn-out, unlikable and uninteresting characters (except for some Driving Icons), ''Payback'' on the other hand tries a more serious approach by giving more in-depth features and core components.\\\

Head of the House and Lina Navarro’s boss.\\\
Hence the name, The Collector is a very serious car collector, [[spoiler: pointing out why he wanted Marcus Weir’s [[CoolCar Koenigsegg Regera]] by force.]] Apart from his hobby, he also looks over Lina, that as planned, takes over Silver Rock’s street racing scene and gain control of the crew, just for his cause.
----
* TheCollector: ExactlyWhatItSaysOnTheTin. It doubles as a MeaningfulName since he has passion for collecting exotic cars… [[spoiler: illegally]].
* ConspicuousConsumption: He has two gilded sports cars; the Mercedes [=G63=] and the Aventador. Both used as a [[LuredIntoATrap bait]] by planting hidden detonators inside it in case Tyler and Mac hijack them. [[spoiler: It backfired when the latter two defused the bombs and used them to fire at the FVPD.]]
* GreaterScopeVillain: The Collector is like the [[{{Franchise/Terminator}} Skynet]] of ''Payback''. Keeping an eye on his employer.
* HeWhoMustNotBeSeen: The Collecter never reveals himself in the open.
* LuredIntoATrap: The Collector loves to pull tricks on Tyler’s crew. He’s a trickster mastermind to keep Silver Rock under The House’s control.
** The Collector personally contacted Tyler to lose the Outlaw’s Rush on purpose as a bribe to take Lina’s position and among other perks The House had to offer. Losing the race has him [[{{Troll}} trolling]] Tyler as if the bargain is even the real deal.
--> '''The Collector''': You actually thought I’d welcome you into the House if you lost?
* OnlyKnownByTheirNickname: He has NoNameGiven. Alas, he is called "The Collector".
* TheEndOrIsIt: [[spoiler: "The House is Gone… [[SequelHook or is it?]]"]]
* TheVoice: Although he never shows his face, he speaks. The Collector only communicates through phone calls to Lina. [[spoiler: And later, Tyler]].
* WhatHappenedToTheMouse: [[spoiler: After the Outlaw’s Rush and the proper ending, one of the loading screens hinted that there are even more [[GreaterScopeVillain Greater-Scope Villains]] than the Collector himself.]]
