Princess Sophia (Sethunya) Strelotte is a Snivy Swashbuckler. I made Kaida in D&D using the Swashbuckler Subclass of the Rogue which is probably one of the most highly rated Rogue Subclass. But in Pathfinder, the Swashbuckler is not as subclass of their rogue, it's a whole class of it's own that relies primarily on treating battle like a dance with different moves to strike, get the advantage on your opponent, fall back, and then go in for another strike! I am thinking Sophia would be a Braggart Swashbuckler leaning into the Smug Snivy trope. Braggarts turn roasting into Psychological manipulation to bait or demoralize their enemies
Fun Fact! The Name Sophia Strelotte is a play on Queen Sophia Charlotte of Mecklenburg-Strelitz the wife of King George III of England. She was a patron of the Arts and an amateur botanist and inspired the scientific name of The Bird of Paradise Flower: "Strelitzia" which was one of the design origins of the Snivy line. And Sethunya is an Native South African Name meaning: "Blooming Flower"
FULL CIRCLE BABY!
I imagine Sophia (Original name Sethunya) was adopted by the wealthy Strelotte family, however adopted is the nice way of putting it...it's more like she was kidnapped by her adoptive family after they colonized her home and put down rebellions which includes Sethunya's parents. Raising Sethunya as Sophia was their own misguided attempt to save face and present themselves as heroic, claiming what they did was rescue Sophia from a tribe of savages and raised her to be a proper lady, treating her more like a trophy to show off rather than an actual daughter.
Sophia inevitably catches on to what happened to her real family and after getting furious about it she figures she is in a more advantageous position by playing her part while using the wealth, resources, and skills she has developed as part of the Strelotte family to undermine them right under their noses.
Sophia gave herself the title "Princess" as an homage to to the Infamous Pirate Queen: Empress Kaida La Croix who she has partially tried to emulate.
