==Biography==
The [[Greek people|Greek]] daughter of a [[baker]], Sophitia worked at her family [[bakery]]. She had always treasured her country's culture and prayed often to the city guardian, [[Athena]], the goddess of wisdom. One day, as she bathed in a forest spring, a bright light appeared and took the shape of a man. He revealed to her that he was the [[Twelve Olympians|Olympian]] god of fire and forge, [[Hephaestus]], 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. Upon gaining her equipment, she ventured forward. Sophitia did eventually track down the Soul Edge in a port in [[Valencia]], [[Spain]]; and she fought its possessor, the dread [[pirate]] [[Cervantes de Leon|Cervantes de Leon]], destroying one of the twin blades. However, a shard of the evil sword flew with great force from her powerful blow, causing a cut deep into her womb, which wounded her too greatly to finish the fight. Just as [[Cervantes de Leon|Cervantes]] was about to deliver a finishing blow to the endangered Sophitia, a mysterious female [[ninja]], [[Taki (Soul Calibur)|Taki]], saved her and proceeded to kill the evil [[pirate]]. After the battle had finished, [[Taki (Soul Calibur)|Taki]] carried Sophitia on her back to her home in [[Athens]], where her sister, [[Cassandra Alexandra (Soul Calibur)|Cassandra]], had been waiting for her. [[Cassandra Alexandra|Cassandra]] was the only member of her family or group of friends to believe her story at the time. While recovering from her wounds, she was also taken care of by a local [[blacksmith]] named Rothion. The two eventually fell in love.
Three years later, she had returned to her life as a [[baker's]] daughter, spending her days without a sword or shield and entertaining her eventual marriage to her betrothed, Rothion. However, one night, she had had an ominous vision of a knight in azure-colored armor and a second sword of immense evil--a sword she knew that had to be the real Soul Edge. Following this dream, she received a second oracle from [[Hephaestus]] to destroy the remaining Soul Edge, who then supplied her with holy metal, which Rothion used to forge a new [[Omega]] Sword and shield; she set out on a second journey to destroy the Soul Edge. On this second journey, Sophitia learned that another had destroyed the Soul Edge, [[Chai Xianghua|Chai Xianghua]], and she immediately ended her travels to return to her home as quickly as possible, where she soon married Rothion and gave birth to both a son and a daughter. But a strange shard that Rothion had received from a mysterious customer four years later brought a halt to her newfound happiness. Upon bringing the metal fragment home, their two children, Patroklos and Pyrrha, scrambled to fight violently with each other over the artifact. The evil aura the fragment emanated caused Sophitia's old wounds to ache, as they had been undoubtedly infected with the evil energy of the Soul Edge seven years previous, explaining her children's predilection for the bizarre aura. [[Cassandra Alexandra|Cassandra]] had seen Sophitia's distraught expression and proceeded to grab the shard from her grasp and run out the door, running away from home soon afterwards. A couple of weeks later, Sophitia decided that if she was to free her children from the evil sword's curse on her womb and ensure her sister's safety, she had to embark on a third journey. But because [[Cassandra Alexandra|Cassandra]] had stolen Sophitia's previous weapons, which she had stored at Eurydice Shrine, Rothion forged her a new set, blessed by the god [[Hephaestus]], to destroy the cursed Soul Edge once and for all.
