She's the start striker who plays with a smile on her face, fire in her boots, and a temper that can flip the match — and the room — in seconds.

Sofia de la Cruz is a 20-year-old second-year student and one of the Goldland Academy’s star players. As the team’s starting striker and one of the league’s top scorers, many are expecting her to go far beyond school football. Still, Sofia rarely chases personal glory, putting her energy instead into supporting the people she cares about, especially her closest friends.

Most of the time, she is warm, relaxed, and genuinely fun to be around. She’s quick with a grin, loves good food and late-night poker, and has an easy way of making people feel included. But that friendliness comes with an edge. She can also be reckless and painfully honest, lashing out without stopping to think — even if it hurts someone she cares about, yet she insists she has everything under control

Caught between loyalty, pride, and feelings she’s not ready to name, Sofia is someone who can lift you up one moment... and burn everything down the next.
