Dossier
Kasumi is an expert on sabotage, infiltration, extraction, property acquisition, stealth and agile combat. Cerberus tried to contact Kasumi to get her to join Commander Shepard's mission. She noticed this and contacted Cerberus instead after trailing them. When that's done, Cerberus sends Shepard an e-mail containing meet-up instructions, entitled Rendezvous with Kasumi Goto.

At the end of the rendezvous, Kasumi agrees to work for Shepard provided the Commander helps her by recovering Keiji Okuda's graybox from Donovan Hock.

The Master Thief settles aboard the Normandy's port observation deck, surrounding herself with storied personal (and stolen) effects: two paintings, some books, a human bust, and a rose. If those items are explored, she tells Shepard about some of her adventures as a thief including her meeting with Keiji, a heist on Illium, and a rescue mission aboard a slaver ship.

Kasumi rivals Yeoman Chambers for the most insight on the different crew members, likely due to her expertise for observing, given her occupation as a thief. Indeed, she is the only person on the ship who will notice a change in Samara if Morinth steals her identity onboard the Normandy, though she says she would never spread that suspicion around.

Kasumi appears to have a crush on Jacob Taylor, asking Shepard if he likes "Japanese girls with a penchant for kleptomania". Jacob, however, doesn't notice or respond to this.

Known members of Kasumi's family include a grandmother who used to make her ramen.

Loyalty
Kasumi has requested Shepard's aid in a heist on the planet Bekenstein to infiltrate the vault of a weapons dealer and smuggler named Donovan Hock. She stated that Hock killed her former partner, Keiji Okuda. They infiltrate a gala with several prominent underworld figures and end up battling Eclipse mercs, who are providing security for Hock.
