Candice Cantripp

Candice Catnipp (キャンディス・キャットニップ, Kyandisu Kyattonippu) is a Quincy and a member of the Wandenreich's Sternritter with the designation T: The Thunderbolt. Candice is a tall and well-endowed young woman with long, light-green hair. She has blue eyes, prominent eyelashes, and thin, lightning-bolt shaped eyebrows. Her attire is a heavily modified and revealing variation of the regular Sternritter's white uniform, consisting of the typical double-breasted jacket, which she keeps tied up to reveal her midriff and unbuttoned, as well as removing the fabric on the sides, to display her cleavage, and a pair of short-shorts which are held up by a black belt with a green heart-shaped buckle attached to the side. She also wears a white cap on her head with gold trimmings, which features a black peak and the Wandenreich insignia emblazoned on its front, and a pair of bulky, shaft-heeled boots. After being zombified by Giselle, Candice' skin takes on a darker hue and her eyes turn red. Her Vollständig now takes on the form of yellow blades on her arms and skulls on her ankles. She also gains a pair of horns that emit from the sides of her head. Candice has a very short temper, as shown when she got annoyed at Bambietta for her habit of killing attractive male soldiers when irritated and then proceeded to get angry at Giselle for teasing her about her supposed tendency of having "fun" with her subordinates. She cares a great deal for her appearance, going as far as to get up hours before everyone else to do her hair, and cannot stand having it ruined in battle. Candice is also very shortsighted, reckless, and impatient; this volatile nature coupled with her horrible judgement of the situation causes her to make foolhardy decisions when engaging stronger opponents. Powers & Abilities Great Spiritual Power: Candice's spiritual power is on a level comparable to that of a captain-level Shinigami. Reishi Manipulation: As a Quincy, she primarily absorbs spiritual energy from the atmosphere, and combines it with her own spiritual energy to form weapons. She has an easier time collecting this energy in environments with higher concentrations of Reishi such as in Soul Society or Hueco Mundo. Hirenkyaku (飛廉脚, Flying Screen Step; Viz: "Flying Bamboo-Blind Leg") is an advanced Quincy movement technique, allowing the user to move at high speed by riding on the flow of Reishi created below their feet. Swordswoman: Candice has some skill in dual-wielding swordsmanship, having used her lighting wings as swords to briefly clash with Zanjutsu masters Ichigo Kurosaki and Byakuya Kuchiki, while the former was also dual-wielding. Enhanced Durability: Candice possesses considerable durability, withstanding Ichigo Kurosaki throwing her into a building with only minor injuries. Enhanced Endurance: Candice is considerably resilient to damage, quickly getting to her feet after being pierced by Bazz-B's Burner Finger 1. Shrift The Thunderbolt (雷霆ザ・サンダーボルト, Za Sandāboruto; Japanese for "Thunder"): Candice can use her Schrift to create, control, and project lightning bolts. She commonly generates the lightning in her hands and points in the direction she wants to project it. She can also conjure lightning bolts of significant power from the sky to attack targets in groups, causing considerable damage to an area. The lightning is strong enough to kill multiple unseated Shinigami and effectively incapacitate an injured Kenpachi Zaraki. Lightning Jump: Candice can dodge attacks by shifting her body into lightning and moving a short distance to get around the attack and opponent. Spirit Weapon Heilig Bogen (神聖弓ハイリッヒ・ボーゲン, Hairihhi Bōgen; German for "Holy Bow", Japanese for "Sacred Bow"): Candice uses a bow as her primary weapon. She keeps the short bow in a collapsed state within a heart container on the side of her belt; when Candice clicks the heart, the bow pops out above her. There is a heart centered at the middle of the bow with the two arms branching out of it. The arms of the bow are shaped like lightning bolts. Candice grabs hold of the heart portion with one hand and pulls back on a Reishi string with her other hand to fire like a normal bow. Heilig Pfeil (神聖滅矢ハイリッヒ・プファイル, Hairihhi Pufairu; German for "Holy Arrow", Japanese for "Sacred Destruction Arrows"): Candice can fire powerful, electricity-imbued Heilig Pfeil from her bow. These Heilig Pfeil have tips with jagged, lightning bolt-shaped edges. Galvano Blast (ガルヴァノ ブラスト, Garuvano Burasuto): Candice fires a powerful, 5 gigajoule blast of electricity at her opponent. She claims this attack possesses enough power to turn a target to dust. Quincy: Vollständig Barbarriel (神の雷霆バルバリエル, Barubarieru; Japanese for "Thunder of God"): Upon release, which is accompanied by an explosion of electricity in all directions, Candice gains six green lightning bolt-edged Heiligen Fliegen behind her shoulders, a Heiligenschein of electricity shaped like a star-like Quincy Zeichen floating above her head, and a thread of electricity crackling around her body. Flight: Using her wings, Candice can fly at high speeds. Lightning Swords: Candice can pull off her individual Heiligen Fliegen and use them as swords for close-range combat. She can wield one in either hand, and their strikes possess enough power to send a formidable opponent like Ichigo flying backward for several meters. Galvano Javelin (ガルヴァノ ジャベリン, Garuvano Jaberin): Candice can throw one of her swords as a javelin for long-range combat. However, it was proven it could be cancelled out by an attack of equal and opposite force as demonstrated by Ichigo who offset it with his line-drawn Getsuga Tenshō. Sklaverei (聖隷スクラヴェライ, Sukuraverai; German for "Slavery", Japanese for "Holy Slave"): A technique that augments a Quincy's most basic ability to gather Reishi by forcibly absorbing all Reishi from their environment. Candice uses this ability to further empower Barbarriel and its abilities, changing its appearance slightly, gaining lightning bolt marks on her legs, boots, and chest. Electrocution (電滅刑エレクトロキューション, Erekutorokyūshon; Japanese for "Electrical Destruction Punishment"): Candice points upward with her arm, causing a huge column of electricity to surge around her. She concentrates this electricity around her arm, with some of it radiating from her eyes as well, before throwing it at her opponent in the form of a massive blast of electricity. Zombie Form: After being zombified by Giselle Gewelle, Candice, like Meninas McAllon and Bambietta Basterbine, retains some partial version of her Quincy: Vollständig, with green Reishi accessories on her arms and legs, two skulls, and horns.
