His name is Legion
Legion is a Geth. Geths in the game are robotic/organic creatures made by another species in the Mass effect Universe. They are made by Quarians to help them with daily tasks, farming, and anything else that the Quarians don't want to do. The Geth eventually reach sentience/self awareness and have a collective intelligence. In Mass Effect you spend a large part of the game fighting these guys and they can be pretty tough. Legion is a special Geth... He is the only one that has a name, and is given more range of freedom to do whatever it takes to try an understand people. In the video above you get to see Legion, Who has been stalking you for some time and is wearing pieces of your armor that you died in (Beginning of Mass Effect 2). The images below represent regular Geth which is a perfect place to start from to make this character.
Honestly you really cant ask for better character references that this image above!!! This picture was produced after the original model was finished and I can PROMISE you it is a much better reference than what the original character modeler got to work with.
Now to make this Geth look like Legion we will simple deconstruct the final model. It is much easier to build the entire model first and then tear holes into it and change the basic color scheme of it, than it is to tear it up while building it.
