Miranda Lawson
Miranda Lawson is a Cerberus officer and appears in Mass Effect 2 as a Normandy crew member who is also Shepard's second-in-command.
She also had an appearance in Mass Effect Galaxy.
In Galaxy, Miranda communicates with Jacob Taylor as a hologram, and is his main source of information on how to stop the batarian threat.
A few months after the destruction of the SSV Normandy, Miranda meets with Liara T'Soni and Feron on Omega after their fight with Blue Suns mercenaries.
Miranda tells Liara that they have the same goal and brings her to meet the Illusive Man.
Miranda also says to Liara that the Blue Suns were the ones who attacked her and that the mercenary group has Commander Shepard's body and its still on Omega because Cerberus would have found out if someone had left with it.
Then Miranda tells Liara that if she wants to find Shepard's body, she needs Feron's help.
Before Feron and Liara go through the Omega 2 Relay for the Shadow Broker's base, Miranda asks the Illusive Man to stop Tazzik, who is going to hit the Omega 2 Relay, but he tells her to wait.
Then she sees Feron's ship and asks Illusive Man to follow it but once again he tells Miranda to wait.
After Liara acquires Shepard's body, Miranda meets Liara at Lazarus Research Station, where Shepard's body is transferred for recovery, and tells her that they may not be able to restore Shepard and that the body is in worse shape than expected.
Liara tells Miranda to let the dead rest and that what Cerberus does is not what she brought Shepard back for.
Miranda interrupts and tells her that maybe the Collectors would have done the same.
She also explains that the Illusive Man is more hopeful about Shepard's prospects and they're going to spend everything they have but it will still take a very long time if it works at all.
When Liara asks what will the boss do about Feron, Miranda answers that the drell knew the risks and if Liara wants to go after him, that's her business and suggests that she do what she wants.
In Mass Effect 2, Lawson is revealed to be the highest ranking operative of the pro-human organization Cerberus, being one of a select few that has met the Illusive Man face-to-face, and has been genetically altered for superior intelligence and physical traits.
She is shown to be a capable leader, exemplified with her being one of the few members of the squad who can successfully lead a fireteam in the final mission without anyone dying, despite feeling she doesn't command respect like Shepard does.
Lawson is leader of Cerberus' Lazarus Cell, tasked with reviving Commander Shepard.
Aboard the Normandy, she is Shepard's second-in-command and Executive Officer, and files mission reports directly to the Illusive Man.
Lawson was the artificially created daughter of Henry Lawson, a rich and powerful businessman from Earth.
Rather than give her a human mother to randomize her genetic code, Henry took his own DNA and doubled his X chromosome, hoping to create a dynasty.
Unhappy with his attempts to exert control over her life, Miranda fled her father and joined Cerberus.
After learning that her father has created a new daughter, Oriana, Miranda manages to take her from her father and through Cerberus, gave her to an adoptive family to have a normal life.
Later in the game, Miranda asks Shepard for their help, saying that her father has apparently found Oriana and has hired mercenaries to take her.
Shepard can help her and afterwards, seeing Oriana safe with her, can convince Miranda to go talk to her.
In one of the story's possible endings, she proves her loyalty when the Illusive Man gives her an order to prevent Shepard from destroying the Collectors' Space Station by refusing and announcing her resignation before ending the communication abruptly.
Lawson is a possible romance option for a male Shepard.
Miranda Lawson makes an appearance in Mass Effect 3 if she survived the events of the suicide mission in Mass Effect 2.
After defeating the Collectors, she left Cerberus.
Shepard meets Miranda on the Citadel, where she expresses her concerns that Oriana was found by her father.
If she was not warned about a Cerberus attack, she will be killed by Assault Troopers under orders from the Illusive Man.
Later, Miranda asks Shepard to meet her in an apartment on the Citadel, asking for access to Alliance resources, though won't say why, even if Shepard presses her for a reason.
Shepard can either give her access or not. If Shepard refuses her access, Miranda will accept their decision and leave.
If Shepard gives her access, she will admit that she has more to tell Shepard.
She'll say that when she was heading the Lazarus project to revive Shepard, she wanted to put a control chip in Shepard to make sure they didn't go rogue, but the Illusive Man, not wanting to take away who Shepard was, ordered her not to.
She'll then admit feeling guilt that while she had been trying to keep her father from controlling every aspect of her life and her sister's, she didn't think twice about wanting to do the same to Shepard, apologizing to them for it.
Shepard will forgive Miranda, saying that the main point is that she brought them back.
If the male Shepard hasn't broken his relationship with Miranda, he has a chance to rekindle it then.
She is later encountered on Horizon after the events at Thessia.
Shepard finds out that Oriana is being held by her father in a Cerberus facility disguised as a shelter.
While trying to find Oriana and her father, Miranda will try to get word out about the facility's true motives, but will suddenly be attacked by Kai Leng.
Miranda, Shepard, and Henry come face to face, and Shepard can either defuse the situation diplomatically or shoot Henry.
If Shepard allows the elder Lawson to leave, Miranda will attack him, but dies from injuries sustained by Kai Leng.
If Shepard secured Miranda's loyalty in Mass Effect 2, gave her ample warning about Kai Leng, granted her access to Alliance resources, and used the Persuasion options on Henry, Miranda survives and assists in the war effort.
However, if she was a male Shepard's love interest in Mass Effect 2 and rejected her interest in continuing the relationship in Mass Effect 3, she will die no matter what other choices are made.
Miranda is listed on the Normandy SR-2's memorial wall on the Crew Deck, if she did not survive the events of Mass Effect 2 and 3.
Miranda Lawson is voiced by and modeled after actress Yvonne Strahovski.
