Liza



Liza is pretty well known to the animals of Jamaa, since she personally welcomes everyone that arrives here and helps them get started on their adventures. Liza has always been a traveler and explorer too, and she vividly remembers the day her travels first took her to Jamaa.

She found a land besieged not only by Phantoms, but by internal conflicts as well. Rabbits and monkeys were always bickering, while koalas and tigers wouldn’t speak to each other at all; and it seemed as though the wolves didn’t get along with anybody. Even among the Alphas there was tension and suspicion.

Liza has a talent for helping animals understand each other better, though, and she was the peacemaker who brought the Alphas together as friends. Their example soon spread to the other animals, and for a long time now Jamaa has enjoyed peace both inside and outside its borders.

After the last major battle with the Phantoms, the rest of the Alphas set out to track these mysterious invaders back to their point of origin and learn more about them. Liza stayed behind, however, both to safeguard our home against further attacks, and to help the thousands of animals arriving here every day find their way around Jamaa Township.

Appearance
Liza is the Panda Alpha who stands upright on her hind legs. She has bright neon purple eyes with long eyelashes (however, the original Liza had simple dark circles for eyes), pale fur, dark shading around her eyes, and pink squares right beneath them. She has a triangular black nose. Her ears sit on top of her head, with white swirls in the middle, and almost looks like a part of her hair. Also, three aquamarine earrings dangle from each ear. Her hair is in a long braid that falls down her back. She wears a aquamarine dress with a golden lining, which is connected by lace at the neck. and a jewel-encrusted belt. She wears black gloves, and has a golden ribbon tied on her right ankle. She normally carries a long wooden staff. Over time, Liza went through a make-over. Originally, she was quite bigger, and looked older. But today, she is thinner and younger-looking.

Adventures
Liza first appears in the Return of the Phantoms Adventure, she tells the Player what is going on and then teleports somewhere else. She appears in the end of this Adventure congratulating the Player on saving the Bunnies from the Bunny Burrow. She appears again in The Phantom Portal and complains about the Phantoms locking up the Monkeys and poisoning the Chomper Plants. She then appears again near the end of the Adventure asking the Player to give her the Alpha Stones so she can stop the Phantom King from getting through the portal. Her last appearance so far is at the end of Greely's Inferno where she admires Greely's bravery of saving Jamaa and congratulating the Player on his/her help. She appears again in The Search For Greely, where she ambushes Greely along with Cosmo and Graham. She tells the Player to watch out since Greely could turn on any of them. When Greely talks about the Phantom Beacon, she seems horrified and appears to be anxious. Her latest appearance is in The Forgotten Desert where she asks the Player to find all of the Crystal Shards so the Phantoms in the land can disappear. She gives a hint to the Player that the easiest to find are the Green Shards, because they are left lying around. She is seen at the beginning and end of Bubble Trouble, where she asks the Player to explore underwater and rescue the Dolphins. At the end of this adventure, she finds out about the Phantoms making a factory to either reproduce Phantoms or create weapons to use against Jamaa. She looks utterly terrified and complains about it wildly. In the end of Bubble Trouble she thanks the Player for helping out.
