Sophia Carpenter

== Disambiguation ==
Sophia Carpenter is a main character in Silence.
== Background ==
Sophia works at a local news station and has a degree in communication. In Silence, she also pursues a career as a stand up comedian, however since the job isn't supporting her yet, she of course has to work her day job. 
Her personal story involves whether to focus on her news career or comedy career when she is promoted to be a reporter.
One idea currently is to make her conflict revolve around revealing info about the Silent that she finds out, and the only way she can do it is by using her comedy stage; or perhaps, this knowledge begins to creep into her performances possibly making it hard for her to focus on her craft.
An idea is to focus on the irony of her comedy with the serious information war. Another idea is to have her travel with an opening act, say a friend or family member, that plays guitar or brings music to the stage too.
This role would allow the creative sector to enter the world of FoG, as currently the financial, business, arts, and technology sectors are realized. This could also be a way to balance the integration of something as heavy as the pornography industry in Gems, since other creative people will also affect the overall plot of the series, helping make the plot of Gems more believable.
