Be careful not to get too near me when I'm really hungry. You do look delicious, I'm sorry to say.
Answer: Gaze intently.
Don't you think Lord Solel is wonderful? He's so kind, amazing, and just plain great!
Answer: Nod.
I grew up enjoying food at my dad's feasts with his friends. If I have a big party like that, want to come?
Answer: Spread your wings.
I have a VERY healthy appetite. The pay I get from the temple can't cover my meals. Tragic, right?
Answer: Sing softly.
I like to give everyone cute little names. I hope it's cute anyway. Maybe it's kind of weird?
Answer: Tilt your head.
I love spicy food more than anything. Too bad it always gets eaten up quick. Why is that, I wonder?
Answer: Tilt your head.
I never get tipsy, no matter how many mugs of suds I drink. How about you?
Answer: Tilt your head.
I was born and raised at Lyoshan Fort. If you ever go there, watch out for all the ruffians!
Answer: Nod.
If I think someone's cute, I can't help calling them a fun name. I'm going to call you Li'l Birdie!
Answer: Spread your wings.
Mmm, roasted? Braised? Oh! Sorry, I didn't mean anything by it. You don't look tasty at all!
Answer: Be intimidating.

Plan
Sofia is recruited on Cai's route by reaching 3 support levels with her and 9 renown, with no other extras, from Part I chapter 3.
Part I, chapter 1
Give Sofia one of her liked gifts (Yarc Milk, Ginji Cervi, Honey Milk or Honey Pastries) and share a meal with her every in-game week from the first free-time window until her support level with the player reaches 3.† unverified
Part I, chapter 1
Prioritise quests from the start of the route, above all Cai's specialised Kindness Quests, plus divine audiences, skirmishes and paralogues each week to build renown towards level 9.† unverified
Research notes
- Give Sofia one of her liked gifts (Yarc Milk, Ginji Cervi, Honey Milk or Honey Pastries) and share a meal with her every in-game week from the first free-time window until her support level with the player reaches 3. Why: Satisfies the 3S support component of Sofia's Cai's-route gate. weekly gifts and shared-meal/activity support from Dagsion merchants and inns — per planning-inputs.md (Gift Giving Guide, How to Increase Support Level)
- Prioritise quests from the start of the route, above all Cai's specialised Kindness Quests, plus divine audiences, skirmishes and paralogues each week to build renown towards level 9. Why: Satisfies the 9R renown component of Sofia's Cai's-route gate.
Missing plan details
- no chapter-to-renown-level correspondence found for this route, so the 9R threshold cannot be tied to a specific chapter
- no source states support points per action or points per support rank, so the 3S pacing is a baseline assumption only

Story and profile
Who they are
Sofia grew up among ruffians at Lyoshan Fort, yet she turned out gentle. These days she is a priestess at Solel's Temple in Dagsion. Her appetite is famous: whatever she earns goes on food, and she looks forward most to the moment a plate arrives. When she is not eating she likes to preach about Solel.
Sofia starts as a Commoner and plays as a healer. Healing Knowledge adds 10 HP to every ally she heals with magic, which makes each heal worth more. She learns Physic at White Magic rank B, and her Magic growth is 45% with Resistance at 40%. She is not built to fight, though: Defence growth is 25%, Dexterity and Luck are 30%, and Pocket Tactics notes she does not hold her own in combat. Keep her behind the line. The guide rates her B, and her class path is Diviner, Priest, Bishop, Wiseman. She prefers Bow and White Magic skills and dislikes Axe skills.
She joins in Part 1 and is recruited automatically on Theodora's route.
