SOPHIE - Dangerous Diva

Sophie was hired for her inflammatory ideas. There's nothing she's scared of saying and she has a real talent for saying it. She has a flagrant disregard for authority. She is streetwise, swears like a trooper and is trendy and attractive.

As a gay woman she is something of a nineties phenomenon: anti censorship, a sexual libertarian (anything consensual goes), she'll refer to chicks, babes and skirt with knowing irony. Her humour can be very crude. She will talk openly about sex, but doesn't brag about conquests. She's no bimbo and knows her feminism, but has little time for seventies notions of touchy-feely sisterhood.

In theory, Soph acts as a 'content manager' reporting to Mike, who remains in overall charge of all content on the site. But her role was never made clear. Soph resents the position this leaves her in, Mike gets all the glory without having to shovel any of the shit.

Although a fiercely loyal friend, when it comes to relationships she is a mess. But if she's a fuck-up in personal relationships, she'll make sure she's a success professionally. She's smart enough to keep her ambition hidden, but it can occasionally be glimpsed.
