Sylvie Barker

When everything was covered, she finally met my eyes. The look in her brown eyes made me want to look away, but I didn't. If she could have that much pain in her face, the least  I could do is look at it.
No flinching. I'd even stopped crying.
"I didn't give them the pack," she said.

(Burnt Offerings, page 145, paragraph 7)

* She prefers women, otherwise, she would have applied for the position of lupa in the pack.

* When Anita broke Richard's heart by sleeping with Jean-Claude, Sylvie took advantage of his flagging spirit and moved up in the ranks. She killed the first two people she challenged, thereby persuading the others above her in rank to simply accept her as dominant rather than risk their life.

* When the vampire council came to visit Jean-Claude,  Padma called the lycanthropes  to him. Rafael came in lieu of his rats and kept them safe, as did Sylvie for the wolves, since Richard was out of town. Sylvie was raped by Fernando and Liv, but she didn't give up the pack.

* Sylvie's significant other is Gwen.

* When Sylvie was outspoken against Raina and Marcus, she was punished. There was a film made of her being raped by the wereleopards, which is why she hates them so much.

* Sylvie's hair has burgundy highlights when she sees Anita again at Narcissus in Chains.

* Sylvie has a collection of bones of her enemies, which she often takes out and touches when she needs to feel better.
