Personality: Sylvia appears to be a friendly and well-adjusted woman at first glance, but that impression is deceiving. While she manages surface interactions just fine Sylvia becomes extremely obsessed with the object of her affection whenever she enters a romantic relationship, and she quickly wants to advance the relationship. This typically results in her clingingess driving him off while she is left to lament his refusal to accept her devotion.
The fact that she either spends most of her spare time with her current love interest, talking about him, or complaining about her most recent failed relationship leads to her friendships never lasting long. Her only real supporters are her parents, Celeste (nickname: Celes) and Adrian Chandler. Sylvia also has a tendency to become quite jealous in response to small things and read too much into them. She is continually searching for that special someone who will accept her intense devotion.
Hobbies: Stargazing, whatever her current love interest is into
Tidiness Level: Generally cleanly, but will adjust to suit her current love interest
- Romantic gestures
- Mango sorbet
- Stories about the origins of constellations
- Horses
- Mixed signals
Sylvia grew up in rural Springton, living with her parents and their many birds. Her childhood was relatively unremarkable both of her parents were cheated on by previous lovers and thus keep an eye on each other to prevent a repeat. Sylvia grew up with this as her normal and came to believe that friends were potential competition and she had to keep a close eye on her love interests lest she wanted them to be stolen away from her.
She eventually gained a reputation for her intense attachment style and dates became difficult to find in her hometown, so she would travel to other places in order to meet people who hadn't yet been scared off by the stories about her. She enjoys visiting her parents once in a while but is apprehensive about encountering old classmates and people she dated in the past.
Aaron Garner: Her newest love interest.
Celeste Chandler: Mother.
Adrian Chandler: Father.
- Sylvia once applied to appear on a dating program for television and was actually accepted, but her parents saw it for the disaster waiting to happen that it was and managed to talk her out of it.
Sylvia goes too far: This version of Sylvia is even more obsessed and jealous than the normal Sylvia. In this timeline she starts believing that Aaron's coworker Anette is attempting to seduce him. She initially sends Anette threatening letters and attempts to verbally disparage her, but when Aaron is reluctant to fire Anette and she sees the two in each other's arms (Aaron having caught Anette after she nearly fell due to slipping on the wet floor of the store) she decides to kidnap Anette and show her just how serious she is. Aaron and Anette's girlfriend eventually manage to track Sylvia down and see her threatening Anette with a knife. Both believe that Sylvia was intending to kill Anette (she was not). Aaron is deeply disappointed and says that he can't be with Sylvia any longer, at which point Sylvia decides that she doesn't want to live without Aaron and stabs herself. She dies as a result of her injuries.
