Bio: The twin sister of Talrith, Sonja was born in Alria during an age of long peace. While her brother was a valiant fighter who preferred martial training, Sonja was reserved by Aasimar standards, typically shying away from her heritage. She refused to try to live up to her brother and often found herself buried in alchemical books and surrounded by alembics and various plants. She found herself at odds with Talrith often. He constantly warned her not to push too far and that there were dangers to be associated with her tests. She ignored his warnings, and eventually his worst fears became realized when she accidentally released a poisonous inhalant within the basement of their house that resulted in the death of both of their parents. Talrith was not present for the event and she had acclimated enough to be able to escape before it overcame her, but she was not able to save them.

Ashamed and practically disowned by her brother, Sonja fled the city to start a new life. She combined her alchemical knowledge with the limited martial training that she had in crossbows to take on the role of a bounty and demon hunter. She spent many years wandering the countryside taking out bandits and, as her skill grew, undead and rogue outsiders that had entered the plane. She shifted her focus to studying the anatomy of various creatures and how potions and toxins affect it, as well as the magic that binds together undead and what connects outsiders to the material plane. She had various excursions into dangerous lands, including the Underdark, the Shadow Plane and various demiplanes. It was during one of those trips that she lost the use of her left eye chasing after one of her bounties (Shytiel).

As the Esriel uprising started, she focused on taking out his necropoli and used her knowledge to cripple his undead forced. Within these conflicts she reunited with Talrith and ultimately served as a specialist to the paladins. She was last heard from shortly before the destruction of Alria, having been sent to the Underdark at the request of Talrith.
