Personality
Despite being the earl's daughter, Stephanie utterly lacks qualities found in other high-ranking noblewomen. Her personality, in truth, is close to that of daughters from viscount and baron households. Being haughty, overbearing, selfish, and rude, She is virtually an embodiment of all undesirable traits of a noble lady.

Unlike other countess-rank ladies like Deirdre and Clarice, Stephanie is incredibly vulgar. Her speeches and conducts are remarkably unrefined, which one may not expect from the earl's daughter. Her lack of etiquette is caused by inadequate inculcation since Stephanie never went through a training period as a maid.

Her arrogance is particularly awful, even by the standard of noble. Not only does Stephanie loves to intimidate everyone below her station, but she also constantly antagonizes people with equal or higher status. It seems that she's so used to getting her way by making the threat to the point that she's never cared about her target. Stephanie, in fact, even dares to threaten Angelica, whose family has much more political power than her household.

Stephanie habitually flaunts her wealth by having several Exclusive Servants. She seems to be overcompensating for her family's lack of noble blood and status among high-ranking nobles.

Story Overview

Volume 2
She bullied Olivia during the festival, showing doubts about her relationships with Leon and Angelica. In addition, she was a ringleader among the girls who made a scene at Leon's café, leading to trouble with her family after she insulted the Mylene Rapha Holfort.

She and Angelica fought during the airbike race on the last day of the festival and then after she bullied Olivia into accompanying Leon against the sky pirates. She planned so that the sky pirates would attack Leon and the others and would spare only Carla. But her plan seemed to have backfired as Leon and his ship Partner were more formidable than she thought and they were easily able to subdue the sky pirates. After Leon fully subdued the sky pirates, Luxion found several documents with interactions between them and the Offrey Household.

When the documents came into light, she & her whole household lost their rank as a noble and their assets, territory and everything else were seized and their Nobel titles and rank removed.

Family
Her half-brother and the heir of the family. Their relationship is not the best. Even though them having different mothers is also a reason for their sibling rivalry, Stephanie especially despises his personality of taking pleasure in bullying the weak, but staying quiet in front of the strong.

Classmates
As Brad's family was in charge of the border and the Offrey Household held diplomatic relationships with the principality, so they were engaged. As stated, The Offrey household was still a relatively new noble house, having initially started out as a wealthy merchant family before acquiring their lands and noble rank using their wealth. As such, the Offrey house did not have the noble pedigree of well known adventurer ancestors as the other older noble houses did. Because of that, her engagement to Brad was meant to address this issue and ensure that the future descendants would be recognized as proper nobility. She and Brad had spoken only a few times prior before and after the engagement. After the duel between Leon and The Prince's Entourage, their engagement was broken off.
 * Brad Fou Field (Former Fiancé)

In the storyline of AnoSeka, their engagement is broken off following the events of Leon and his allies crushing down the Offrey and Lafan households. In consequence, Brad comes to visit her after she was judged. He mentions that he doesn't blame her for the fact that her family was affiliated with the Sky Pirates, but he can't forgive her for using them to make students of the Academy suffer. Listening to Stephanie as she vents out her pent up frustrations, he says that he wishes she had turned to him much sooner, cause he knew that no matter how hard he would try, he won't be able to help her anymore. Stephanie is annoyed by his kind words at only this point in time, as he never wanted to see her in the Academy and the only thing he ended up doing was chasing Olivia around. While she believed that he would eventually just toss Olivia aside, Brad refutes it by showing that the latter has already won his heart, which is something Stephanie couldn't do throughout the years.

Stephanie has always had a one-sided admiration for Angelica. She perceived her as the ideal she wanted to become: the princess of nobility, a lady among ladies who is recognized by everyone.
