Design
Sophia’s hairstyle is based on the Godot’s robot head logo, taking inspiration from the 4 gear teeth on its head. Her hair color is derived from Godette, an earlier anthropomorphized character by the Godot community based on the logo. The names of Sophia and GDBot were given by the GDQuest maintainer Nathan.
Coincidence
Although Sophia’s name and her concepts were not my ideas, by coincidence, I found out later that I did have a forgotten original character with the same name who shared most of the concepts, the only difference being she has twin tails.
I rediscovered my own Sophia when I was searching in my computer for “sophia” to locate where I saved GDQuest Sophia’s source files. And I was pleasantly surprised by also finding my own Sophia in the result.
I might give Sophia a role in my original projects, Electric Hearts and Spirit Animals in Disguise.
