Appearance
At first glance, she is simply a short, dark-skinned miqo'te woman, with red hair, and bright eyes.
Shofie has dark red hair, with touches of black. She tends to prefer keeping her hair on the shorter side, but she also has a penchant for growing the sides out a bit long and tying them into hanging ponytails, a habit leftover from her childhood, when her mother would put her hair up in this fashion.
She has heterochromia, a testament to her father's Seeker heritage. Her left eye is blue, her right eye a vibrant green. From a distance, they look fairly similar; it's not until one gets closer this difference is usually discernible. She has stripes on her face, most of which are hidden underneath her hair.
Hailing from her mother's Keeper side, she has slightly more prominent fangs than a normal Sunseeker would have, but not as pronounced as a Keeper's. This is generally not too noticeable unless she is being very animated, and she gets defensive about it if anyone asks.
Shofie is a tad on the short side, and generally "pear-shaped". She is relatively flat-chested, but has wide, prominent hips. She's slightly chubby (more accurately "average"); despite being a Miqo'te, she's not terribly athletic.
Personality
Shofie is fun-loving and adventurous to the point of reckless. She will dive into something without thinking, frequently dragging her friends along in the process. She thinks and acts with her heart, and is exceptionally passionate in anything she decides to commit herself to. Shofie is frequently in trouble, and has gotten good at talking herself out of situations as a result.
She loves eating, drinking, and flirting with pretty much anyone who catches her interest for any reason whatsoever. She's extremely friendly and outgoing.
She is bisexual, and prefers women as romantic partners. If she lies with a male, it's usually purely for the fun of it. She tends to keep men at arm's length emotionally. However, she tends to generally be uninterested in romantic love of any type. She loves broadly; but rarely acutely. That is, she enjoys many people's company, but rarely deigns to attach herself to an individual in a romantic sense.

Biography
Shofie's mother, a Keeper, fancied a wandering Tia from a Seeker tribe. Unable to procure any females of his own, he took to a life of adventure, and happened to meet a lovely Keeper. A brief affair ensued, the product of which is Shofie. Her mother gave her a Keeper name, hence the lack of a tribal prefix.
Of mixed heritage, but looking like a Seeker of the Sun, and being raised by a Keeper meant Shofie endured a lot of bullying.
Everyone in her mother's tribe knew the "secret" that her father was a Seeker, and shunned her, if they weren't outright mean to her. Shofie grew up painfully lonely, and once she became old enough to seek her own path in life and get away from her tribe, she always passed herself as a Seeker outright to avoid the hostility she received from others for being a "mixed breed". She tends to fiercely guard this aspect of her past, and does not like talking about it. Only a handful of people are aware of her heritage. Shofie's mother was very loving with her, and always tried to encourage her; this is probably the only reason for Shofie's spirit not being completely trampled during her childhood.
As a result of her upbringing, she is very friendly and cheery to virtually everyone where possible, as a result, some of her friends are in very stark contrast to her own personality.
Shofie has been trying to find her father, but to no avail. Her mother doesn't talk about him, and Shofie and her mother are not on the best of terms due to her leaving the tribe and being somewhat distant about her Keeper heritage.
She has recently come into a job as the barkeep of a little tavern in The Goblet called The Coeurl's Whisker, which she runs with her friend, Zhwan. Shofie's specialty is red wine made with Lowland grapes she grows in her own garden. She also grows the ingredients used in the cooking for the tavern's dishes. Shofie has a green thumb, and enjoys managing the grounds and designing and decorating the vegetation around the tavern as well as procuring ingredients for the recipes.
In her spare time Shofie has been studying and learning the ways of the Arcanist. She finds this one of her healthy outlets to channel her suppressed rage from years of mistreatment by the bullies in her tribe.
Rumors
- One might rarely notice her fangs are probably ever-so-slightly more pronounced than your average Seeker of the Sun, particularly if you are very close to her and she is laughing or yawning. She usually covers her mouth when doing either of these activities, however.
