About
Dr. Liara T'Soni is an asari researcher who has spent the past fifty years of her life studying Prothean technology and culture, specialising in the Prothean extinction. She was born in 2077, making her 'only' 106 - little more than a child in asari terms - but she already has a great deal of insight into the Protheans and is a highly trained user of biotics.After learning Liara is Matriarch Benezia's daughter, Commander Shepard goes looking for Liara to find out what she knows. Searching the Artemis Tau cluster, Shepard eventually discovers her suspended in a field of energy at the dig site on Therum in the Knossos system. The geth have chased her behind the barrier curtains, either to kill Liara or worse, capture her and force her to help Saren Arterius find the Conduit. After being rescued from the doomed ruins, Liara joins the Normandy and is subsequently available as a squad member. Her primary role in the main storyline is to use her telepathic abilities to assist with interpreting Shepard's fragmented vision, in order to discover Saren's plan and stop him in time. She was quite taken back by Shepard's revelation of the Protheans' extinction by the Reapers, but believed it to be true, as there was remarkably little evidence of the Protheans - as if something or someone didn't the mystery of their extinction solved.
Liara does not relish her role as Benezia's daughter and has shied away from her mother's life as an important figure in galactic affairs. Benezia's position meant Liara faced high expectations from everyone, and she chose a career in archaeology to escape the pressures of being the daughter of such a prominent figure. Because of her work Liara spends most of her time alone. She is quite shy and not used to lying, a trait Ashley Williams is tempted to take advantage of. ("Want me to ask about her sex life? Might be illuminating -")
