He is played by Dylan Sprayberry.

History

Liam lives with his mother and stepfather, Dr. Geyer.

He played lacrosse for Davenport Prep where he had a poor relationship with the team. Led by Brett Talbot, they threw lacrosse balls at him in abandoned zoo cage as punishment for letting “every single player” get passed him. (Triggers)

He was expelled after he "got into it" with his lacrosse coach. Liam was benched for the rest of the season after anger issues on the field. He then destroyed the coach's car with a crowbar.

Liam suffers from Intermittent Explosive Disorder which is marked by intense episodes of rage. He is remorseful about how his behavior hurts his parents and his friends.

His best friend, Mason Hewitt, often consoles him and gives him advice when he has a problem. Liam shows similar devotion when Mason turned out to be the host for Sebastien Valet and helps rescue him from The Beast's control over him.

As Scott and his friends graduate high school, he begins start taking on leader roles within the group and making his own decisions. Skills that came into uses against threats like the Ghost Riders, Tamora Monroe, and the Anuk-Ite.

Hayden and Liam

Hayden stepped into a fight between Liam and another boy in the sixth grade and Liam punched her in the face. Little Hayden apparently punched him back. In their yearbook photos from that year, they both have two black eyes.

She held a grudge against Liam for years but later they reconciled and began dating. Their relationship struggled due to their allegiances to different packs.

However, this obstacle no longer seems to be a factor since Hayden's parting of Theo's Pack. She has since joined Liam in Scott's Pack, thus becoming his latest Beta.

The continued their romance during the fight against Garrett Douglas and the Ghost Riders.

Her exit from Beacon Hills upset Liam tremendously, coming as it did just as much of his Teen Wolf Pack was moving on to college.
