† Personality †
Basic Personality:
Sophie is a doer. She knows what she wants and will do whatever it takes to get it. Her ability to make decisions is pragmatic and logical, but she has a somewhat underdeveloped sense of intuition. This means that she's not very good at reading people. She may be able to reason through what their saying, but if they have any hidden agenda it's doubtful that she'll be suspicious of them. Although this may seem like an unfortunate weakness, Sophie has rarely reached such levels of defeat where it has been exposed. She's far too enticing and manipulative to the senses for people to lie to her. Many people have tried, of course, but since she's so bad at reading people she vigorously studied the art of lying instead. Sophie could sniff out betrayal in a heartbeat; or in the vampire's case, the time it would take for their filthy little fangs to protrude against their dead lips.
As a leader, Sophie was perfect for her position of authority. She was charming and beautiful, two qualities which greatly aided her skills in negotiation and compromise. She liked to keep things moving; solving one problem and quickly jumping to the next. Every situation was met with realistic decisiveness to "make things happen" and to learn to embrace risk. Sophie could readily take charge in a crises. She could persuade others to her point of view with a direct, assertive style, and she could hope to see immediate results; since in her words "every bit of action was a thrill."
Despite her often serious and professional demeanor, Sophie rather liked a "lively" work atmosphere. She is known for teasing her underlings - whether violently or enticingly - and making sure they know who's in charge. Clearly she has a bit of a 'dominance' problem; since if she isn't the one pulling the strings, she can turn into an incorrigible bitch. Her position was gained after years of self-determination and dozens - dozens - of long-since-established connections. There was no way she'd take a talk-back from any one of her employees.
Sophie's "lively" work atmosphere was fun for other reasons, too. She didn't care what her employees did, as long as they accomplished the tasks they were assigned. She could be a complete kitten when her schemes were successful. But when they weren't... well, let's just say that not many employees have left the psych ward after bearing witness to her temper. She can be blunt and insensitive when her anger gets in the way; she'll act quickly without giving thought to the implications of her actions. Apparently the time allowed for "fun" must come at a certain price.
When everything is in order and her problems are being met with organized solutions, Sophie is the loveliest person you'll ever meet. She is elegant in her movements and refined in her tastes, with every last gesture dripping in some hidden meaning. She has a mind of mystery - that is to say it's off limits - but her blunt statements and brutal honesty always let people know what she's thinking of them. In summary, Sophie is beautiful to the point of intimidation. She's terribly cunning - clever to boot - and has a skill of persuasion that could make lawyers of the world kill for a slice of her intellect.

† History †
History:
Every single detail in life is relative. The past, the present, and the future, all combine to create a single mechanism of society. People don't flourish beneath the guidance of their family values and morals; they flourish in accordance to social demands. Whether they were born from rags or riches, luxury or poverty, individuals of society are just mindless slaves to their era.
Sophie was different. She was outspoken and stubborn to the point of challenging society with her strong-willed ideals. She believed that people who couldn't think for themselves were weak (and that the world was full of them). Most of her drive came from her father, Lukas. He was a wealthy politician with a beautiful wife, Emilie, who aided him unconditionally from the sidelines. His measures of persuasion were incredible - as were his negotiations that helped him climb socially - and he could win a person over after only a few words.
When Sophie was born, Lukas knew immediately that she would follow in his footsteps. She was a cunning girl with a sharp mind and a demeanor that could fool you in an instant. Unlike her mother, Sophie was strong-willed. She would do anything it took to complete a task because admitting defeat was never an option.
As Sophie got older, she helped her father with his various campaigns. The world was quickly turning to War and Lukas was nominated for his platform in order make a difference. Sophie was still young at this time, but she found herself thrust into a world filled with lies and deceit. Her father's platform was not as innocent as it seemed. Making a difference, according to Lukas, meant mass-genocide and heavy-armed artillery. Was this really the world Sophie wanted to be a part of?
When the war broke out, she didn't have a choice. The uproar caused by her father's politics earned him an assassination and Sophie's human life suddenly became no more. She was caught in the clutches of unreasonable supernaturals whose sole intents were to harm her; but one bite, three gashes, and five painful days later landed Sophie on the path to where she is today.
Upon taking over for her father's platform, Sophie was back with a vengeance. She trusted no one; not even the people she once called friends. Everyone was suspect. The object of her platform transitioned towards a more 'revolutionary' approach and she came-out publicly as a werewolf. Shortly following her unveiling, D.O.G.S was set into motion, although the exact origin of the program was never fully known by Sophie. Rumors surfaced linking her as the culprit, but that's just what they were: rumors.
The truth of the matter lies within personal gain. Sophie wanted to follow in her father's footsteps, if not to relive his memory then to get revenge on the people who took him away. She grew so accustomed to a life filled with political corruption that she never wanted to leave it. Sophie loved being important, she adored being respected, and she wanted things to continue going her way. D.O.G.S would be her playground. She had the ultimate position to destroy whoever saw things differently and in order to stay in that position, she made to share her secrets with very few. Only 'desirables' who may have gained her trust and important business associates would benefit from her knowledge.
Given her trust issues, Sophie talks little about her past and even less about her interests. Her main concerns lie within her authority as Commissioner. She employs certain 'desirables' for her political scheming and makes sure they keep in line by following her agenda. If one thing is for certain, Sophie's not someone to be trifled with.
