## Profile

### Identity

Saber's true identity is **Sophitia Alexandra**, She was sent by the Greek God of Fire and forging Hephaestus in order to destroy Soul Edge and was granted to Omega Blade and Elk Shield in order to do so. She is credited with being the one to shatter Soul Edge during her fight with Cervantes.

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 choice." She had come running after the sword to destroy it, but when she thought about the consequences now, if Soul Edge should be lost, what would become of her child?

And so that her child might live, the crusader Sophitia made her choice; to battle any righteous warrior who came to Ostrheinsburg seeking to destroy Soul Edge. With each new sin, guilt tore at her heart, but there was no other way. Would Sophitia and her family never be able to dwell in the light of the sun again?

### Personality

Sophitia retains some of her personality as she is now very melancholic and doubtful, due to the danger her daughter incurs. She will do anything to protect them by all means, even if it means sacrificing her own life.

Though she regrets having to betray her own sister and having to hurt other innocent lives in order to safe her child from Soul Edge.
