BIOGRAPHY

Sophia was born at a time when her family was settling into their new reality. Her mother was beginning to understand what it would be like to be a step-mother, and her father was just beginning to understand what it was like to find love again after having lost. Her birth was significant. Though she was not the boy her mother had wished for, she was the piece that brought her mother officially into the Addington family. With her birth came a shift for them all, bringing them all together as a family. 

Despite the fact that she was the half-sibling to the rest of the Viscounts children, Sophia never felt different from the rest of her siblings. She grew up much the same as any other baby of the family, clutching a doll to her chest as she followed her older siblings around like a shadow. Perhaps getting underfoot at times, Sophia has always looked up to and adored her siblings, finding herself fiercely protective of them all.

Always dressed in hand-me-downs, Sophia has never been one to really stand out. She was always reading or doing needlework, and her temperment never really pushed her to being the kind of young woman who desired attention. She was often much happier sitting in a window seat, curled up with a good book and a cup of tea, rather than tending to visitors or watching her sisters when callers came.

The thought of being introduced into society (and most importantly the Ton) has been a thought that has raced through Sophia’s mind since her eldest sister first stepped foot into society. The idea of dances, flirting, and finding a husband has been a daunting yet exciting prospect. As a romantic at heart, Sophia hopes to find a match that would be that of fairytales, but she knows that something like that might just be the stuff of her novels.

HEADCANNONS

Sophia has never really been able to play an instrument, despite her mother trying to teach her multiple times. She doesn’t have an ear for playing. She also has 2 left feet but has been taught to make up for her lack of co-ordination with charisma. 

To occupy her time ( and to get out of the house some days) she volunteers at the local parish, reading to children, sewing clothes, and feeding the less fortunate. 

In the summer months, Sophia spends a lot of time outdoors in the garden. It’s been a solace for her ever since she was young. 

CONNECTIONS

connection 1: Lifelong Best Friend (Kind of self explanitory - someone who she can go to when she doesn’t want to burden her sibings with her ‘woes’) connection 2: Unrequited/Crush (Perferably someone who is lowerborn who either works for the family or who Sophia has bumped into and has grown fond of them).
