MAJOR DEEJ UNIVERSE

Sophia Salvatori was born in Abbiategrasso, Italy in 1922, into a prominent family whose men were known for generations of competitive archery. Though the family took pride in its legacy, Sophia was repeatedly told that true recognition in archery was reserved for men.

Refusing to accept those limits, she trained alongside her male relatives and steadily surpassed them all, developing into the finest archer in her family despite ridicule and social pressure.

​

As she reached adulthood, Sophia’s skill drew attention, but not in the way she had hoped. Rather than being celebrated as a champion athlete, she was pushed into elite social circles and presented to powerful political figures, including Benito Mussolini. Initially treated as a novelty, she was eventually assigned to entertain Italian troops serving abroad with Axis forces. During one such performance, an attack by British forces turned her exhibition into a battlefield. In the chaos, Sophia took up her bow and killed more than twenty enemy soldiers in only minutes, displaying a level of combat archery that immediately set her apart.

​

That deadly performance changed the course of her life. Soon afterward, Mussolini arranged for Sophia to join Axis Force as Italy’s representative on the team. In Berlin, she impressed even the organization’s top leadership with her agility, precision, and nerve. Axis Force’s scientific support staff enhanced her battlefield effectiveness further by designing specialized arrows and tools that transformed her from an exceptional archer into one of the team’s most dangerous covert operatives. Sophia embraced the role fully, becoming a lethal hunter in the service of the Axis war effort.

​

In 1941, Sophia fell in love with Roland Ferrari, a member of Axis Force’s support network and the son of the Ferrari family line. The two married quickly, and Sophia became pregnant. During the final months of her pregnancy, she returned home to have their child, Giancarlo. While she was away, Roland was killed in wartime conflict involving Captain Invader, leader of the Allied Fighters. His death marked a turning point in Sophia’s life. Grief became obsession, and she swore she would one day kill Captain Invader herself with her own arrows.

​

After giving birth, Sophia left her son in the care of her family and returned to Axis Force. When the Allies invaded Italy in 1943, much of her extended family was killed and their lands and homes were destroyed. Though her son survived, Sophia was cut off from the remnants of the life she once knew. Whatever humanity and restraint she had once possessed began to erode. As the war continued, she became increasingly bitter, ruthless, and sadistic, building a reputation for hunting her enemies with a cruel patience that made her feared even beyond her already formidable battlefield record.

​

By mid-1945, Sophia and the rest of Axis Force were arrested for treason as the Axis collapse accelerated. While many associated with the group were executed, a select number were placed into secret cryogenic suspension units intended as a last-resort contingency. Sophia remained frozen for more than seventy years, never reawakened as originally intended. When the equipment finally failed in 2017, she emerged into a vastly different world—one that had advanced without her, but one in which her hatred had not diminished.

​

In the modern era, Sophia discovered that her son had lived a full life and that her family name had endured, even earning distinction in archery through later generations. Yet rather than reclaim that legacy, she returned to Axis Force and resumed the war in her own mind. Her anger remains fixed on the nations she blames for destroying her family and on Major Invader, still alive decades later. She now fights with the same obsessive purpose as before, determined to complete the vengeance she promised herself in 1941.
