Sophitia

Who is she? From Athens, she was a devout follower of the Greek gods and tasked by Hephaestus, god of the forge, to end the scourge of Soul Edge. Cassandra is her younger sister.

Alignment: Dark side.

Height: 1.67 meters (5'6")

Weight: She refuses to say.

Appearances: Soul Edge, Soul Blade, Soulcalibur I-IV

Whoa: Sophitia's critical finishing move involves her praying and invoking a huge burst of god-like energy from the skies.

Objectives: At first, she was to carry out the will of Hephaestus, but now her fate has become inextricably tied to the Soul Edge. She seeks to rescue her daughter, kidnapped by servants of the cursed sword, at any cost.

Weapons: The Omega Sword and Elk Shield, forged by her husband using iron given to her by Hephaestus.

Tips and Tricks: Sophitia is at her best at close range. If she connects with early blows, follow up with her Iron Butterfly or Guardian Strike attack. If blocked, fall back on Sophitia's defensive options. Temple Kick can deflect low attacks, while the risky El Fortune deflects vertical attacks for massive damage.

Star Wars Grudge Match We'd Like to See: As a herald carrying out Hephaestus' will, Sophitia can be thought of as that god's "hand," doing his bidding on the mortal plane. As such, Mara Jade might be a fitting match for Sophitia, particularly during her career as the Emperor's Hand.
