— In-game description

Sylvia is one of the characters in KALPA. She can be obtained in Pleiades for 100 Dark Matter.

Name
All three of Sylvia's names begin with the letter S. This is likely an allusion to Scorpio, the sign she represents.

The name Sylvia means "spirit of the wood" and may be a reference to Sylvia Plath. The name Sullivan means "dark eyes".

Appearance
Sylvia has long silver hair streaked with red in a single braid that reaches to around her knees. The braid is held with a black and gold ornament, and the tips of her hair are stained red. She has messy bangs swept to one side of her face, along with a curled hair flick and two face-framing hair pieces that stop at her chest. Two smaller braids wrap around the side of her head, though where they end is unknown. Sylvia wears a set of golden cuffs in her left ear; the lowermost has a red decoration in the shape of a scorpion's claw dangling from it. She has red eyes and a beauty mark below the center of her left eye, and she wears blush and pale red lipstick. While her nails are left bare in her official art, in her sticker they are painted red.

She wears a dark gray suit with red lining. The suit jacket is done up with six white buttons and has a plunging neckline, exposing part of the red garment she wears beneath. The part of the jacket below her left breast is a lighter gray with white vertical stripes. Her sleeves are wider than her arms and feature gold trim near the cuffs. Her jacket and skirt are separated by two belts: one smaller, white, and wrapped more tightly around her waist; and the other larger, light gray, and draped asymmetrically, being at her right hip near the other belt and falling to lower on her thigh at the other side. Both belts have gold buckles roughly in the shape of two diamonds linked together; the upper buckle is also linked to a length of gold chain that hangs around her left side. A small golden rapier is attached to the lower belt. Sylvia wears a wrap skirt with elaborate gold trim, a red jewel at the corner, and gold pincer-shaped ornaments hanging from the trim. The section of the skirt around her right hip is the same lighter gray with white vertical stripes as the similar section of her jacket. She wears a black belted cuff around her left thigh and a pair of black high heels.

Sylvia also wears a black choker with a gold scorpion hanging from it as well as a black cape with gold trim and buttonholes, red lining, a high collar, and white tasseled shoulder pads attached. The bottom edge of the cape is torn in places, and the pattern of the trim becomes more elaborate closer to the bottom. Two silver chains are attached to both sides of the cape near the collar, and drape over Sylvia's chest.

Variants
Sylvia has one alternate version: Christmas Thief Sylvia.

Sylvia
Requirement: Unlock Sylvia

Transcript: Sylvia, the guardian of Scorpio which is located between Libra and Sagittarius seems just like an ordinary school teacher but actually, she is the head of the underground mafia, 'Scorpioid' which took control over Scorpio in ages.

Sylvia regards loyalty and trust. She cherishes and loves her men.

An eye for an eye, a tooth for a tooth. The guardian of Scorpio punishes bastards who betray loyalty and trust as a man, by any means.

She does not like her name since it is far from strength or charisma.

The only person who knows her name is Libera, who have once arrested her with utmost secrecy.

Sylvia, as a guardian has 'Fascination' as a skill, and when her silver hair starts to get stained red, 'Fascination Smoke' spreads in time and she takes control over who inhales it.

She often teases Libera and feels a strange feeling of joy each time when Libera flips out in various ways. Personally, Sylvia thinks her as a cute friend of hers and doesn't seem to hate her that much.

Sylvia and the guardian of [BLOCKED] knew each other when they were yet humans. However, after she became a guardian she turned into a completely different person and Sylvia investigated her personality. As a result, she found out that the formation of [BLOCKED] has been changed significantly and that this is an [BLOCKED] that will be used to [BLOCKED].

Finally, Sylvia with her ability found out that this is for [BLOCKED]. When she was investigating the center of [BLOCKED], the entropy value reached a critical point and she faced [BLOCKED] which took all of her energy led her to fall asleep.

GROUP OF TWELVE
Requirement: Accomplish Sylvia's 1st Reverse

Transcript: Group of Twelve, the conference in which 12 guardians of constellation gather and discuss the order and the future of the universe on December 12th, 12:12 PM every year.

S feels unspeakable boredom about attending this banal conference again.

She heads out to the conference hall in front of Yggdrasil Temple which is the center of the universe using an interstellar transporter.

After seeing a familiar blue hair from distance, S soon talks to her.

"Isn't this the JUSTICE of the Supreme Court? You must have been free today?"

The guardian of Libra and the justice of the Universe Supreme Court, Libera got goosebumps all over.

Soon Libera opened her mouth,

"Hey~ aren't you the scorpion granny? Guessing from that terrible look on your face, you must have spent a hard time escaping from the dragnet or just got old?"

S took a little hit and responded in a sarcastic tone,

"Haha~ I have a lot of work at night unlike claws-kid who goes to bed early~ I gotta give some work to do for you, kid~"

Libera raged.

"Claws-kidd??? Take.. take it back!! Did you just call the Balance that keeps the beauty of perfect equilibrium, What? Claws? You are going to spend the rest of your life in jail when I arrest you."

S reacted to her with a small smile,

"I will look forward to it~ Ms. Claws~"

Other guardians have arrived during their friendly conversation and the conference began.

Entropy meter, also known as Entropium. Which lies in the middle of the conference hall, has a shape of a giant clock, and is a measure of disorder in the universe.

Recently, the entropy figure was unusually rising and Libera urged that it was caused by the scorpion who is making troubles all over the place and should deprive her guardian qualification.

The first astrological sign in the zodiac, the guardian of Aries, exhorted Libera to calm down.

"The spirit of guardian chooses the most suitable figure for each constellation as a guardian. The reason why she became a guardian is because she suits the position the most for the order of constellation, moreover the order of the universe. Libera, it must be hard for you as a Supreme Court justice to tolerate her actions that are out of the law's boundary, but please bear with me."

After they discussed how to remedy expanding chaos, The conference ended.

Cat and Mouse
Requirement: Accomplish Sylvia's 2nd Reverse

Transcript: The gigantic architecture of the ‘Supreme Scale Court’ was known to inspire awe and respect in everyone who saw it.

In this sacred place for punishing sins, there were two people who were running around drawing people’s attention.

“Stop there! S, you unrecyclable trash, the cancer of society! When I catch you, I’ll lock you away for life!”

Judge Libera, who drew respect from the people of Virgo for her just and strict judgment, was chasing after someone.

“How scary! Anyone would run away if they heard a threat like that. I came here to confess, you know.”

The person Libera was chasing was S Sylvia, the boss of the shadowy organization ‘Scorpioid’. She looked relaxed as she talked to Libera while running away.

“Confess? Ha, how can I believe you? Stop and turn yourself in. Th, then I’ll believe you.”

Sylvia stopped running as Libera gradually slowed down and ran out of breath, finally sitting down on the ground. Then Sylvia started to walk towards Libera with a distinct sound of her heels and came just within Libera’s reach.

“Will you believe me now, Pincer Kid?”

Libera was confused by Sylvia’s sudden actions.

“Wh…what are you doing, old lady? Are you really turning yourself in?”

“Of course. You can handcuff me if you want.”

Libera, still only half-trusting Sylvia’s words, approached Sylvia, who had a scent of mysterious attraction.

“Huh? A scent? Could it be…”

Like a herbivore who had noticed the existence of a carnivore, Libera stopped herself and started to be alert.

“Damn. I was almost successful, too.”

Sylvia, with a disappointed expression, clicked her tongue. Then she stuck out her tongue at Libera, making a face.

“Next time I’ll succeed and make you my prisoner. Then see you until then~”

After finishing her words, she disappeared into the back seat of her henchman who came to get her, ordering them to start the car.

At Libera’s angry roar, mixed with curses, Sylvia laughed brashly.

Skill
"Don't pay attention to anything else. Just look at me, only me." — Flavor text

Sylvia's skill rewards the player with 10% additional Energy after every clear using Lunatic Mode, and is guaranteed to trigger as long as it is possible to play with Lunatic Mode on.

Sylvia is the only character to incentivize playing in Lunatic Mode and is therefore useful for players who regularly do so.

The exact benefits of Sylvia's skill, apart from the unique niche it fills, are heavily dependent on the player's ability to score well in Lunatic Mode. Due to the stricter accuracy judgment of Lunatic Mode, the additional Energy received from her skill may be offset by the Energy lost from achieving a lower grade than would normally be obtained. The amount of Energy received from an A+ play on any given chart with Sylvia's skill active is roughly equivalent to the amount of Energy that would be received from an S++ play on the same chart without using her skill.

Ranking Season Message
''Hi, [Player]! Congratulation, you are in top 100! Like 'Janus', Sylvia is a teacher, also a dominator of underworld. Your play has harmonized ambiguity as if the character of her.''
