Princess Sylvia von Phoenix (シルヴィア, Shiruvia) is the first princess of tthe Royal Family and older sister to Lillianne and Sherwood. She is supposedly the second eldest member of the Royalties.
Appearance
Younger Sylvia (with a much smaller chest)
Sylvia bears the standard Royal Family appearance: blonde hair, red eyes with slit pupils. She wears a white dress and white gauntlets but in the past her dress has puffed sleeves while it's currently sleeveless.
Along with Sawawa, Sylvia have the biggest bust size of the entire female cast. In the third OVA Riza humorously compared the bust size of the two and failed to determine as to whose is bigger. Her chest when she was younger was visibly smaller than it is today.
Personality
When Hiro met her for the first time in chapter 44, she seemed to be a gentle and kind person. However, Sherwood mentioned that Sylvia is a natural-born swindler and is not an honest opponent. As the series progresses, Sherwood was proven to be correct; Sylvia is very skilled at (and has a knack for) manipulating others as pawns and will do anything to win the throne, no matter how dirty or underhanded it is.
Normally, she behaves much like Hime, calm and dignified. However, she is also very calculating and prideful. During her duel with Hime she proved to be cruel and slightly sadistic.
History
In Hime's flashbacks, it was revealed that Sylvia and Hime used to be very close to each other, though she would at times display superiority over her younger sibling. For example, when Hime composed a song on the piano for her, Sylvia called it "incomplete", as it's not worthy to express her beauty, and when Sylvia pranked her by trapping her in a room using magic.
In the future, Sylvia has killed Duken. She and Sherwood are the only siblings left in the battle and is winning. When Hime was warped into the timeline, she dueled Hime, telling her that she will definitely get over her (Hime's) death with a sadistic smile. As Sylvia prepares to deal the final blow, the future timeline's Hiro appears and blocks the strike. Hiro flings Sylvia aside, knocking her out and jumps out of the window with Hime.
Later in the story, it is revealed that her brother Emile was secretly murdered and raised as her blood warrior.
When Sylvia reaches adulthood, she abandoned her servants and challenged the newly awakened Fuhito on her own, defeating and absorbing her brother. She then pulled Hime and Hiro into her own consciousness, where the two sisters had a deathmatch. As she prepares to use her phoenix power to eradicate her sister, Hime activated her own power as well, the two forces cancels out each other, leaving Sylvia and Hime alive, but powerless, and thus Sherwood was crowned Queen by default. Sylvia and Fuhito are later seen in a roadside cafe.
