Sophitia Alexandra, better known as just Sophitia, is a fictional character in the Soul series of video games. Created by Namco's Project Soul division, she first appeared in Soul Edge in which she was arguably the main character due to her prominence in fighting Soul Edge and its subsequent sequels, as well as appearing in various merchandise related to the series. A baker-turned warrior, Sophitia became involved in the search for the cursed sword, Soul Edge, following the blessings of the Olympian god of fire and forge, Hephaestus. The affair soon affected her other family members as well, including her sister, Cassandra, and later her children, Pyrrha and Patroklos. The character has received positive reception, often noted for her sexualized portrayal in the series. Sophitia's life as a warrior began when she was chosen as one of the 24 warriors to receive an oracle from the Olympian god of fire and forge, Hephaestus. While she was bathing in a forest, Hephaestus appeared and told her of the evil blade Soul Edge: that the existence of such a powerful blade would put shame to his name, as he had not created it, and that if anyone were to discover it, it would bring much pain to the world. Hephaestus ordered her to come to the Eurydice Shrine and receive a holy weapon, the Omega Sword, so that she could destroy the Soul Edge. -- Exerpts from en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sophitia -- ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Just to let you know, the last gaming console I owned was the SNES back in the early 90s... so I've never played the game. Everything I've ever seen and/or know about Sophitia is from the internet. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Thanks for viewing.
