―Thanos to Collector^[src]

Throughout the universe, Taneleer Tivan has clustered the largest drove of an interstellar diversity, through the utilise of illegal dealings or other, sometimes immoral means; the contents of the collection, while harmless, is also composed of unsafe, fifty-fifty planetary-destructive relics and unlawfully imprisoned sentient beings, who were either fabricated a function of his collection merely to fulfill a desire to take them or as a punishment.

Tivan also has a preoccupation with the Infinity Stones, as evidenced by his expressing a desire to obtain all six of them. Whether he has expressed this desire for megalomaniacal purposes or just an extension of Tivan's desire to amass the most powerful objects in the universe for his drove remains to exist seen. The manner he states this want, however, after coming into the possession of the Reality Stone just afterwards Sif and Volstagg leave his presence, may imply a sinister design at hand.

Beyond this, he tin can be just equally every bit vicious. This is displayed by the relationship he has with his servant, Carina, and her fearful demeanor effectually his presence. Probable viewing anyone in his servitude as an extension of his own collection, Tivan abused her to the fullest, since he had likewise imprisoned his previous servant and threatened to do the aforementioned to Carina over the slightest hint of defiance. Information technology was this that drove her to attempt to use the Infinity Stone to interruption out of Tivan's servitude, which resulted in the Stone killing her and destroying his collection simultaneously.

Tivan's depraved and treasure-hungry nature was sufficiently stiff that even Thanos himself expressed disgust at how far he would go for his drove, openly expressing this in the illusion he showed to the Guardians, peculiarly when he stated on how Tivan would exist willing to sell his own blood brother out if it meant adding something to his drove. Additionally, his depraved and treasure-hungry nature was sufficient to earn him Thanos' disgust as in the illusion he showed to the Guardians, he did not hide any attempt to suppress his cloy of Tivan. Nevertheless, Tivan has an honorable side and volition follow through on any deal, no matter the cost. He seems to respect Groot'southward species and expressed a desire to purchase his corpse, but would only add together him to his drove after his death, as opposed to several other living subjects Tivan imprisoned in his collection.
