Sonya

Sonya is one of the main characters of Monster Girl Quest: Paradox''. ''She is Karen`s daughter and Luka`s childhood friend. She is quite childish, getting excited over adventures but easily frightened although she is capable of being serious when the situation calls for it.

Recruitment
Sonya will join as soon as you talk to the chief and leave his house. However, you can leave Iliasville without talking to the chief to not recruit her. In doing so you will not obtain the Pocket Castle, which also means you will not be able to recruit any random monsters at all. Sonya will then join near the end of part two, right before the Snow Cave, having been brought there by the White Rabbit.

Iliasville
Sonya is first met on the way to Luka's baptism. She was tired of waiting for Luka who was running late and went to find him. They proceed to Luka's baptism where she assists the head priest. Ilias appears surprising everyone present. Sonya runs off but quickly returns to tell Luka two little girls are fighting in his inn. After Luka ends the squabble and says his good byes to village elder, he meet Sonya waiting outside the chief's house. She forces her way into the party, not wanting to be left out of an adventure or risk letting Luka get hurt by going off on his own.

Before they can leave the village, Nero shows and starts talking to Luka. During the conversation, Sonya notices Nero has been staring at her and she asks why. He apologizes and asks for her name but when she introduces herself as Luka's childhood friend, he blurts out Luka doesn't have one. She gets upset causing Nero to apologize and leave.

After that weird conversation, Sonya tells Luka about how there is a Slime Girl in trouble. Luka asks whether or not that is her job to deal with which she shrugs off.

Iliasburg
Sonya and the gang rested on a camp before going to Iliasburg and she remembered the time she got lost with two Slime Girls on a mountain. On Ilias's route, the small goddess warns Luka to be wary of Sonya as she doesn't remember the priestess which means the latter should not exit.

In Iliasburg, Sonya meets the White Rabbit and if Luka battles her, Sonya steps forward to assist, as the White Rabbit is too strange and possibly a dangerous monster.

After hearing rumors of Amira disappearing she helps defeat the 4 Heavenly Bandits, and her expectations were blown away when she finds out the bandits are actually kids. She feels bad for stopping them and later apologized with them to the town folks. Before leaving for the Nameless Slums, if Luka decides to bring Papi with her Sonya is impressed with her work in the Blacksmith.

Should Luka decides to help Vanilla to develop her shop, Luka will excitedly help her and go to Talus Hill to catch a big beetle, which Sonya finds childish.

Mitra Sealed Castle
When they arrive at the ruined castle south of the slums, Alice/Ilias calls this the Mitra Sealed Castle. Sonya is amazed on the structure of the building. Alice/Ilias explained the history behind this castle and the weapons used in the Great Monsters War. Sonya questions if Ilias indeed created the Dark Goddess, but Ilias doesn't want to hear any more of it. As the party examines the pedestals, Sonya express each time a stronger and stronger disappointment as there isn't a single legendary weapon to be found. When the party finds a cypress rod, she asks if it doesn't happen to be one of the legendary weapons.

Nameless Slums
Sonya gets psyched later on investigating the business with Phoenix Feathers and Don Dahlia at Nameless Slums, calling herself a Femme Fatale. She and the gang uncovers the secret of Don Dahlia's business. She and the party fights the young Phoenix Girl from who the don gets her tail, and later recruit her as Don Dahlia only kept her for her business while lying to her.

Pornof
Arriving at Pornof, when asking a guide she calls him out for being a pervert, but was asked not to call them that. If Luka agrees to a man for Sonya to take her panties off he will get 200G, and even if Sonya retorts about this, she just agrees anyway. She repeatedly express her hatred for the town, even wishing for it to be destroyed by a meteor. Entering the inn, they confront a Rabbit Girl who's not the White Rabbit the party was looking for. The monster tell them that another rabbit was hanging around Southern Tartarus. She later meets Scat Captain and forces him to drink his tea, and if Kamuro was recruited she tells her to get away from him.

Ilias Cont. South Tartarus
After arriving at the investigation site she and the party spot the White Rabbit giving a goose chase to them and jumping down the Tartarus Rift. When they go down, they see a strange dungeon-like place that is crawling with Apoptosis. Sonya starts to get agitated and wants to return home after seeing Tartarus for the first time.

Iliasville(Alt)
After catching up to the White Rabbit, the group stumbles upon an Iliasville that was destroyed by Angels. Luka and her find their own grave, which doesn't make sense. Ilias explains that this place is from another dimension and another time. Luka says that he never saw Granberia and went home afterward. They go back to their world for a discussion in the Pocket Castle, taking a moment to better understand what they just saw and what to do next.

Harpy Village
After Luka and the gang finish discussing their plan, the group goes to the Harpy Village to find out more about the Harpy's disappearances. There they met Nero again in the Harpy Queen's House and tells them about the reason why they vanished like that. Nero reveals that an Ancient Virus has infected the entire Harpy Race and the only cure to that are the fruits of the World Tree. Sonya ask why they didnt inform the villagers about this. Nero states that they didn't want to cause a panic amongst the villagers, and left of their own free will. Upon leaving the Harpy Village the group goes to the tower north, where the monsters quarantined themselves.

Midas Village
Entering Midas Village, infested with Slug Girls a shop owner explains the situation concerning the rapid breeding session of the Sluggy Stars in Slug Tower, she Teeny and Luka agreed to help Flora, a woman who was famous back in her day that she already battled the previous Slug Boss.

Slugs Tower
Sonya is relieved that the problem is over once Luka defeats the Sluggy Stars. After getting the Gold Equipment needed she and the others set off to the Easterm Iliasville Tartarus to see what challenges are ahead.

Rostrum Mountain Cave
Sonya and the others arrives in the Rostrum Mountain Caves wondering what to expect, as the priestess knows that Rostrum was destroyed 10 years ago after the Great Disaster. She later finds the Monster Lord Alice with a Bunny Slime and asks nicely for Ilias and Alice to not fight everytime they see each other.

Rostrum
After getting through the caves of Rostrum, she and the party finds the Rostrum in ruins, Sonya feels sad for what happened to the village. They later find an inn to sleep and continue their adventure to the Tartarus South of Rostrum. Sonya gets agitated again similar to what happened when they first entered the First Tartarus.

Ilias Cont. East Tartarus
Luka and the others find nobody around the place. Neither an investigation team nor the White Rabbit waiting for them. Sonya wonders how a forest is integrated within Tartarus. Ilias/Alice explains this is an effect of Space-Time distortion. She and the others meet a woman in another fragment of Remina, and Ilias knows it's Promestein only different since she's from another time. Sonya acts strangely again when she sees the Chaos Passage again and the portal like the first one.

Rostrum(Alt)
Arriving at the past Rostrum, Sonya asked some locals and she heard a woman with Marcellus was traveling with him, this could be Karen, Merlin and Lazarus from the past accompaying the past Marcellus. She asked Luka about whether he knows of Micaela after Luka receives a letter from another Marcellus, the Marcellus they knew not the one from the past to seek help from Micaela as she lives at Enrika.

Enrika
Sonya and the others arrive at Enrika and heads to meet with an Elf at Micaela's house. Sonya and the others find out about a will belonging to Micaela, Sonya finds out that Micaela is dead after she wrote a Last Will should Luka look for her. She also heard about the situation regarding the new monster lords. Sonya is excited to go to Sentora Continent but they need a boat from Iliasport to travel.

Iliasport
Arrving at Iliasport, Sonya and the others look for a ship to Port Natalia but the captain says that he can't sail for them due to the storm. Ilias knows this is the work of Alma Elma, One of the Four Heavenly Knights and the Queen Succubus when they met Nero again. Nero knows of a way, he suggest getting the Poseidon's Bell from the Cave of Treasures. Ilias gets annoyed again on why was he just randomly helping Luka and the others for no reason. Sonya thanked Nero for the seeds of Yggdrasil but Nero just doing his job and leaves. Sonya and the others heads off for the Cave of Treasures.

Cave of Treasures
Luka and the others arrived at the Cave of Treasures where Nero pointed out that the Poseidon's Bell is here. After venturing through to the tunnel and towards the treasure they are stopped by Nanabi and Luka fights her off. After realising the purpose of the fight was to correct history thanks to the White Rabbit. Neris asked Luka on a date and Sonya is shocked by this and gets creeped out by her and asked Luka whether he knows Neris. Luka says he never knew her until now. Sonya and the others claim the treasures and make their leave.

Meia retorts to that statement, Luka ask where did she get the boys and Meia replies that they are the fishermen missing. Sonya didn't like her method and later defeated her in battle to return her to normal. Meia recalls the incident regarding Astaroth and Kraken.

They went to meet with the pope asking about the White Rabbit and Marcellus but the Pope doesn't know much about the White Rabbit but Marcellus has been traveling around various places specifically Tartarus. Sonya wants to help the Pope with his request but they need to retrieve a book from the library. After getting deep into the underground library it's guarded by Cornelia and warns them to not steal the book as it's an order from the previous Monster Lord than Alice the 16th herself. If Mini is in the party Sonya founds out her weakness is fire. After defeating her in battle they retrieved the book and let Cornelia join them.

Sonya: Hey Luka, you remember that time we got lost in the mountains? We were still kids and went off the trail... You came and found me before anyone else

Sonya: I got lost following after you! You made it back to the vilage no problem!

Sonya: There's no need to apologize. It was my fault I got lost in the first place... Tonight reminded me of that night. Just the two of us, alone under the stars. Luka and I.

Sonya: That's when i decided I'd accompany you. Letting you go off on adventure alone would be rash and dangerous.
