Lorik Qui'in

From Mass Effect Wiki

Lorik Qui'in is the turian manager of the Synthetic Insights Noveria branch, found at the Port Hanshan mezzanine. A consummate businessman, he carries himself in a polite, refined manner, and is happy to talk about current events, including the lockdown at Peak 15 and the arrival of Matriarch Benezia. He has something of an interest in humans, and particularly their curious idioms.

Lorik Qui'in is voiced by Peter Jessop.

Spoiler warning: plot and / or ending details follow.

Commander Shepard is directed to Qui'in by Gianna Parasini, after failing to obtain a garage pass from Administrator Anoleis. Qui'in explains that he is in a difficult situation: Anoleis is accepting bribes and Qui'in managed to gather evidence on his corruption, but Anoleis found out and accused Qui'in of being corrupt himself. Anoleis has illegally paid Noveria security to ransack Qui'in's office, in an effort to find the incriminating data. Qui'in offers a garage pass in exchange for Shepard recovering the data from his computer, though warns the Commander that violence may be necessary.

Once Shepard has recovered the evidence, Gianna Parasini asks for help conducting her investigation into Anoleis. She wants Shepard to convince Qui'in to testify. Qui'in is annoyed at Shepard's presumption, but the Commander can use Charm or Intimidate to persuade him, or give up and exchange the data for a garage pass.

Conversation with him can also be used to acquire an unlimited number of Paragon or Renegade Points.

Depending on the resolution of the corruption plot, if later revisited at the mezzanine, Qui'in will proudly relate that he is now the Administrator of Port Hanshan.
