'''Liaisons''' are emissaries from different civilizations that will sometimes accompany traders to your fortress.  They can have different names ([[Humans]] will send a '''guild representative''', dwarves will send an '''outpost liaison'''), but their functions are the same.  They will ask your [[expedition leader]] or [[mayor]] ''only'' for which goods you would like sent with their next caravan (for a higher price), and inform you of the goods they would like you to sell to them the next time, which they too will pay extra to purchase.
