"In fact, it's an outstanding idea. I'm always happy to show the Omni-Kings how right they were to exempt us from the tournament, as our group is far superior to those universes forced to fight for their survival." |

Appearance[]
Liquiir is a golden yellow fox humanoid with black tipped ears, yellow sclera eyes and three tails. His hands are brown like his ears. When Liquiir uses his Tail Energy Cannon Barrage, he triples the number of his tails to nine. His uniform has a red theme to his coloring.
Personality[]
He lives to eliminate defects in his Supreme Kai's plans and strictly destroys anyone who lowers his universe's Mortal Level.
Despite his rough look, Liquiir is quite jovial. He is shown to be proud of his strength and power, boasting about his universe's superiority to Iwan, and wanting a friendly match in the Tournament of Power Arena.[1]
Liquiir also seems to respect 'love', as he was seen to be in favor of how strong Ribrianne's love is.
Also, while he is confident about his universe's superiority, he was visibly stunned, like many other Gods of Destruction, when Universe 9 was erased, showing that he possesses a degree of respect for life.
Biography[]
Background[]
In the manga, at some point in time, Liquiir participated in the All Universe Hide and Seek Tournament held by Zeno. But when Beerus hid and accidentally fell asleep for fifty years during the tournament, it had to be cancelled, and as a result, Zeno became furious and the gods had to calm him down. Since then, Liquiir and the other Gods of Destruction have felt disdain towards Beerus.[2]

Liquiir in Zen Exhibition Match
In the anime, Liquiir attends the Zeno Expo, along with Korn and Iru, representing Universe 8. Liquiir watches the expo matches and is exempted from the Tournament of Power due to Universe 8 having a high mortal ranking.
In the manga, Liquiir is summoned by the Grand Minister to Zeno's Palace and is asked to partake in the Zeno Expo between the other Gods of Destruction. He later has a look of relief when the Grand Minister announced his universe as one of the twelve that does not participate in the life-and-death Tournament of Power. Afterwards, he returned to his universe to continue maintain his duties as a God of Destruction.
Liquiir during his sparring match against Iwan and Arak
In the anime, when the arena for the Tournament was finished, the gods of the four exempt universes were invited to see it. Both Liquiir and Iwan decided to have a friendly match in order to impress the Zenos, and they invited Arak and Giin to spar with them, though the latter smugly refused. Once the fight was over, the Grand Minister made them clean up the arena, and the trio were disappointed to know that the Zenos had slept through the whole match. Once they repaired the arena, all of the gods sat at the benches to watch the tournament.
During the Tournament of Power, Liquiir watched Universes 9 and 10 be erased by the Zenos, standing in shock over what had happened. As Liquiir was watching the battle between Goku and Ribrianne, he mentioned that while he expected Universe 6 or Universe 7 to win, he was rooting for Universe 2. Later, when Goku awakened the complete form of Autonomous Ultra Instinct, Liquiir and the other Gods of Destruction stood up in recognition of Goku's newfound power.

Power[]
- Anime & Manga
As with all Gods of Destruction, Liquiir is incredibly powerful, only being surpassed in his Universe by his angel/attendant Korn.
In the manga, during the Zeno Expo, Liquiir was trapped by Belmod's Imprisonment Ball until he took on his Nine-Tailed state, however Liquiir's Tail Energy Cannon Barrage from his proved to be unable to do any damage to Belmod. Liquiir is almost killed by Heles' arrow, though he manages to block it so that it only pierces his arm, though he reverted to his ordinary three-tailed state as a result. He is later squeezed by Mule and unable to break free from his grip.
In the anime, Liquiir is able to fight evenly with fellow Gods of Destruction Arak and Iwan.
