ABOUT
Internally, however, his philandering is driven by a deeply-rooted hurt and bitterness over his own life, and the things that are, have been, and will be out of his control. Convinced his Crest has doomed him to a loveless marriage based solely on biological and financial merit, (AKA his Crest and status), he insists upon futilely chasing women in the hopes of "experiencing love" before he's tied down to someone he presumes will not love him for who he is, but rather, what he has.
Aside from romance, he's deeply loyal to his friends, is receptive to their needs and supportive of their efforts. It's said that he's horribly unreliable unless needed, in which case, he's unfailing. Tends to take a "big brother" role in many situations, quick to offer praise, or even flattery. On the battlefield, he tends to move recklessly and throw himself in the line of fire without regard for his own safety. This can be attributed in part to his inherent protectiveness of others, and perhaps also to his pessimistic view of his own future.

APPEARANCE
Ginger/redhead with gold eyes. Stands over 6' tall before timeskip. Wide-chested. Strong, but not excessively muscular. Hair length varies with age, but does not exceed jaw-length. In battle, most commonly a mounted armor unit.HISTORY
Son of Margrave Gautier, born and raised in a territory belonging to the Holy Kingdom of Faerghus. Childhood friend of Prince Dimitri Alexandre Blaiddyd, Felix Hugo Fraldarius, and Ingrid Brandl Galatea. The second, and only Crest-bearing son of House Gautier. Has an elder brother, Miklan Gautier (deceased), who desperately wanted to be the heir to said house, and was treated as such until Sylvain's birth. Once Sylvain was revealed to bear a Crest, he was made the heir, (per House Gautier tradition/protocols). This led Miklan to turn on his younger brother with merciless teasing, harassment, and abuse.PERSONALITY
On the surface, Sylvain appears to be a charming, optimistic, affable young man whose only concerns are remembering the name of the girl he's dating today, and lining up another girl for when that one falls through. Though it doesn't always serve him well, he's said to have a silver tongue, used to canonly charm men and women alike. He's unflappably confident in himself on and off the battlefield, and notably dislikes women who "throw themselves" at him.Internally, however, his philandering is driven by a deeply-rooted hurt and bitterness over his own life, and the things that are, have been, and will be out of his control.
