It always bums me out that she gets the short end of the stick when it comes to many of these romances, as she only gets a significant amount of time devoted to her in Mass Effect 2. Not only does she leave Cerberus, but there is also a mission where you can help her confront her father. Miranda’s ties to her father and Cerberus are explored even further during the events of Mass Effect 3. Cerberus allowed her to escape his torment, giving her a place to make more of her own choices. The wealthy egomaniac was obsessed with perfection to the point where he controlled both her lifestyle and how she looked, using his own genetic template to create her. She seems like she is perfect because she was literally made that way by her father. Through romancing her, though, you come to understand her tragic past. Everything she does at first seems to be in service of the human-survivalist paramilitary group Cerberus.

Her personality is also cold and calculating. She wears tight clothing, is supermodel attractive, and has a different air about her overall. On the surface, her character simply seems like she’s been added as eye candy. Miranda Lawson is one of the most interesting characters to come out of Mass Effect 2, but you have to work for it to fully understand why.
