==History==

Line 24:

Sylvia Christel is said to be half-Japanese and half-Ukrainian, and born and raised in France, although the validity of this is unknown. In college, she got married to [[Henry Cooldown]], but would frequently disappear due to Henry's income not being enough. She became a professional con artist, and used the ranking battles of the [[United Assassins Association]] to scam people for money.

===''No More Heroes''===

Sylvia meets [[Travis Touchdown]] at the Death Match Bar in [[Santa Destroy]] one night; she overhears his drunken rambling and offers to help him get even with his parents' killer, his half-sister [[Jeane]]. Travis agrees, and Sylvia has him assassinate the 11th ranked hitman [[Helter Skelter]] to place him in the rankings. Sylvia appears after Travis kills Rank 10, [[Death Metal]], and informs him that if he refuses to continue, he will be a target for assassins ranked below him. He agrees to continue after Sylvia teases the promise of sex once he reaches Rank 1. A short time later, Sylvia briefs Travis on Rank 9, [[Dr. Peace]]. She informs Travis about the entrance fee, and tells him to take on assassination jobs from [[K-Entertainment]].

Throughout the game, Sylvia informs Travis about his targets, and appears after each fight with [[Talbot]] and [[Weller]] to dispose of the body. She questions Travis's decision to spare Rank 8, [[Shinobu]], but agrees to leave her alive. As the fights continue, Sylvia spends Travis's entry fees on extravagant shopping trips and vacations, to his chagrin. She appears after Rank 5, [[Letz Shake]] is killed by Henry, preventing Travis from fighting him. Sylvia accompanies Travis on a date to a show, where he fights Rank 4, [[Harvey Moiseiwitsch Volodarrskii]]. After the fight, the two share a kiss. Before the Rank 2 fight with [[Bad Girl]], Sylvia sends Travis a letter by carrier pigeon, telling him not to look for her. After the fight, she does not appear. Travis would later learn from [[Mrs. Christel|Sylvia's mother]] that Sylvia is a con artist, and that the battles are a scam, but is encouraged by her to go forward with the final fight. Before the final battle, Sylvia tells Travis over the phone that she can't meet him again, and mocked him for thinking they would have sex. She ended the by declaring her love for him. After Travis kills Jeane, she can be seen watching him from a distance.
