Line 350:
{{quote|'''Voiced by:''' [[Ali Hillis]]}}
An [[Bizarre Alien Biology|asari]] [[Hot Scientist|scientist]] and expert on the Protheans who joins Shepard's team after being attacked by the geth. Also a powerful biotic with powers that can only be matched by an Adept Shepard. [[Boldly Coming|Possible romance interest for a Shepard]] [[Bi the Way|of either gender]]. One of the few characters who can join your party in all three games, being permanent in ''Mass Effect 1'' and ''Mass Effect 3'', and available in ''Mass Effect 2'' via DLC.
{{hardline}}
* [[Abnormal Ammo]]: Her new power for the third game is Warp Ammo.
* [[Action Girl]]: Prothean ruins are a popular target for pirates and mercenaries looking for quick cash. If you want to excavate them alone, you've got to know your way around a fight.
* [[Adorkable]]: [[Shrinking Violet|Easily flustered]] because she's use to spending time alone and not around groups of people.
* [[Adrenaline Makeover]]: Compare Liara when you meet her in Mass Effect to Liara by the end of Lair of the Shadow Broker. Though of course whether the getting the guy/gal part gets played straight/averted/subverted/etc depends largely on the player's own choice.
Line 372:
'''Shepard:''' I don't know. Marriage, old age, and a lot of little blue children?
'''Liara:''' You just say these things! }}
* [[Badass Adorable]]: In the first game, she's easily flustered and generally socially awkward, especially when dealing with people outside her species. She's also a biotic death machine.
* [[Badass Bookworm]]: For a girl who spends all of her time buried in her books, Liara is ''horribly'' deadly with her biotic powers.
** How badass is she, you say? She's the only other character besides Adept!Shepard who can use [[Gravity Master|Singularity]], and her other biotic powers rival or even surpass Samara's, who is ''several centuries her senior''. She's powerful enough that she can send a powerful biotic {{spoiler|Spectre}} with armed backup running for her life.
Line 423:
* [[Hidden Depths]]: "Lair of the Shadow Broker" features this in abundance.
* [[Hot-Blooded]]: Liara definitely comes across as this in the second and third game. {{spoiler|Matriarch Aethyta}}, her father, believes that this is because she's a quarter-krogan.
* [[Hot Scientist]]: Just look at her.
* [[How Did You Know? I Didn't.]]: After {{spoiler|killing the Shadow Broker}}, Shepard asks Liara how she knew that {{spoiler|the Shadow Broker was a yahg}}. She actually had no idea; she just made an educated guess on the spot.
* [[In-Universe Catharsis]]: "Lair of the Shadow Broker" provides closure for Liara's two years of mourning, grief and pain.
Line 436:
* [[Like an Old Married Couple]]: Throughout the duration of "Lair of the Shadow Broker", there is frequent humorous banter and interaction between Shepard and Liara.
* [[The Medic]]: Her class skill in the first game adds to the amount of HP healed by medigel on top of the first aid ability.
* [[Mind Over Matter]]: Usually holds the spot of most powerful biotic on your squad.
* [[Minored in Asskicking]]: Most people find it more than a little odd that an archeologist would be so good at combat. Then Liara points out that since they have potential for containing incredible technology, Prothean ruins are popular targets for pirates and mercenary raids. And Liara has worked in Prothean ruins. Alone. For decades.
* [[Not So Different]]: Noticable in the second game, when Liara at times begins to unconsciously channel ''her mother''.
Line 487:
* [[You Are Better Than You Think You Are]]: Paragon Shepard's interrupts in ''Lair of the Shadow Broker'' reminding her of how she was when they met and urging her to not descend into [[Well-Intentioned Extremist]] territory, not even to protect them.
* {{spoiler|[[You Kill It, You Bought It]]: After she and Shepard kill the Shadow Broker, she takes his place. She's at least the third person to hold the title.}}
* [[Youthful Freckles]]: She ''is'' only 108 years old.
