Sophitia

## How Sophitia joined the Tourney

Sophitia continued her pursuit of the cursed sword, and at last she arrived in the sword's dominion, Ostrheinsburg. There, she learned a shocking truth. While she was away from home, a cunning servant of the cursed sword had abducted her daughter Pyrrha, who had been deliberately exposed to the corrupting influence of the blade. Soul Edge had grown more powerful then ever, a sinister voice whispered, and Pyrrha would die without the sword's evil energy to sustain her. "Feeling torn? I would too, if I'd left my children to fend for themselves!" The words clung to Sophitia like a curse. "Well, don't believe me, if you don't want to, but I suggest you think carefully before making your Doom- DOOM?!". Much to Sophitia's surprise, Doctor Doom was the cunning servant of the cursed sword! She entered the Smash Bros. Tourney with her daughter and went to stop Doom.

### Omega Therion (Hyper Smash)

### Divine Palladium (Final Smash)

Based on her Soul Calibur IV Critical Finish, Sophitia says "ROTHION!" and slashes her opponent with her sword on their chest, pushing them back, and then she jumps on them as she says "This is your last warning!", using them to launch herself spinning into the air. She swings her sword at her opponent, stunning them. She then gets into a praying position, and a flash of thunder comes, striking her opponent into the upper Blast Line as she says "I CANNOT LOSE!".
