Completely random....but I think each character has an inherent 'lucky' attribute that governs the chances of you getting an sos drop, drops in general, and success with alchemy.
L61 char = 0 sos. average drop rate, lots of elixir drops/tab drops, but alchemy skills sux. Fail a lot from 1 to 2 on most things. Only exception was going to +3 on a som L16 sword without failing.
L44 char = 8 sos drops, 2 som drops. hardly any elixir drops, but everything she touches goes +3 or better without much trouble at all. Nice success with alchemy stones as well.
L14 char = 1 sos necklace, lvl 1. Ran out of town with a bow at lvl 1 and it dropped within 1st 20 mangyangs.
or the amount of mobs you kill in a certain time frame....
