Sophia

Sophia is a scribe of the Brotherhood of Steel and personal assistant of the head scribe Vree,The Vault Dweller: "I am looking for Vree."Sophia: "I am Vree's assistant. Vree is over there."(Sophia's dialogue) found at Lost Hills .
==Background==
An instructor for Brotherhood initiatesSophia: "{100}{}{You see Sophia, an instructor for the Brotherhood of Steel Initiates.}" and aide to Head Scribe Vree, though she and Vree do not necessarily see eye to eye. Vree is a technocrat, while Sophia specializes in the softer science of history.Sophia: "{314}{}{I am Vree's assistant. Vree is over there.}"Vault Dweller: "{316}{}{What is it you do as Vree's assistant?}"	
Sophia: "{331}{}{My area of specialty is the Brotherhood's history. It seems that some people around here have forgotten the importance of our history.}" She believes that Vree's pursuit of technical knowledge and focus of researching weapons and mutant autopsies, at the expense of history, is a self-destructive direction: In Sophia's view, history is a vital part of our lives and focusing on technology at its expense destroys the soul of the Brotherhood. As Initiate instructor, she sees the problem first hand: Many new initiates don't even know who Roger Maxson was or what he did.Vault Dweller: "{338}{}{I'd like to learn more about the Brotherhood's history. Do you have any information you can give me?}"
Sophia: "{337}{}{Vree seems to think that the research of new weaponry and the information gathered from Mutant autopsies is more important than our history. She has forgotten that our history is a vital part of our lives. It has gotten so bad that many of the new initiates don't even know who Roger Maxson is or what exactly he did for us.}"
She also looks after the library, where the Brotherhood records technical data on weapons and technology, as well as the historyh of the order.Vault Dweller: "{303}{}{Could you direct me to the library?}"
Sophia: "{308}{}{This is the library. Here we keep records of all technical data on weaponry and technology, and, of course, the history of the Brotherhood.}"Vault Dweller: "{309}{}{I need a water-chip repaired. Can you help me?}"
Sophia: "{317}{}{My area of expertise is the history of the Brotherhood. It sounds like a manufacturing problem, perhaps you should ask Vree?} Much to her chagrin, most visitors are only interested in weapon design and technology (topics restricted for scribes and paladins), while hardly anyone shows an interest in historical information, even though it's available with no restrictions. This frustration leads to her making passive aggressive jabs at Vree whenever the opportunity arises, though she doesn't ignore her duties otherwise.Vault Dweller: "{327}{}{I would like to see a holo-disk on your technology.}" or "{328}{}{I would like to see a holo-disk on weapon design.}"
Sophia: "{344}{}{These are things that only Scribes and Paladins have access to. Vree may be able to help you.}"
Vault Dweller: "{346}{}{Is there any holo-disks that I can have access to?}"Sophia: "{351}{}{Our history is available to everyone. So that they may learn of our great history...Not that any one ever looks at them.}"
Vault Dweller: "{352}{}{I would like to see anything you have on the Brother's history.}"
Sophia: "{371}{}{Well, it's good to see someone interested in our great history. Unlike others around here. Here you go. This is a disk of some of our earliest writings.}"

==Behind the scenes==
Like many other characters in the Brotherhood, Sophia has a substantial amount of cut material present in the files, including unique reactions to disturbing her and Vree at night when they're meditating (likely also part of a day/night cycle that would include them retiring to the back room),Sophia: "{111}{}{You shouldn't be here. Vree doesn't like to be bothered at night. This is the time we meditate.}"
Sophia: "{112}{}{We are meditating. Please leave. Come back in the morning.}"
Sophia: "{113}{}{Leave us.}"Sophia: "{114}{}{Have some respect. Don't bother someone while they're meditating.}"
Sophia: "{115}{}{You Initiates have a lot to learn. Please leave.}"Sophia: "{116}{}{Don't bother me.}"
Sophia: "{117}{}{We are not available during the night. Please see us in the morning.}"
Sophia: "{118}{}{It's night. You should be in bed, unless you have guard duty, in which case you should be at your post.}" float dialogue that would have displayed during a class,Sophia: "{101}{}{Ok, does anyone have any questions?}"Sophia: "{102}{}{Remember to ask questions if you don't understand something. Don't be shy.}"Sophia: "{103}{}{Review your notes.}"Sophia: "{104}{}{We'll be having another test tomorrow for those of you that are on section 14.}"Sophia: "{105}{}{I'm sorry, but I can't talk right now. I have a class to run.}"Sophia and delivering some pulse grenades from Michael to her, for the purposes of research.Sophia: "{208}{}{My research would have been delayed without them. It's good to see we have such a trustworthy Initiate. I knew getting an outsider wouldn't be a bad decision. If you go see Michael he will have something for you.}" Most of these strings are completely orphaned and unreferenced by the script.
