Appearance: Candy is short and quite happy to be so, thank you. Short girls are cute. Everyone knows that. And Candy is all about the cute. Her short brown hair is worn in fluffy layers, a style to keep it out of her way when tending her patients as much as it is to frame large brown eyes and an innocently sweet face. Doc, aka Daddy, usually makes her wear some sort of protective footwear, gloves and kneepads when doing fieldwork but she�s never without her nurse�s uniform.

The outfit, a white ribbed turtleneck tee tucked into white cargo shorts and a split-tail hooded duster, is embellished with plenty of pockets and a waist pouch to hold her medical supplies and vials of Inoculator�s ammo. A white wimple and short veil distinguishes her as a medical officer while in the field but she also carries the insignia of a Saint on a red armband; just to make sure there is no confusion about her belonging at her daddy�s side when he�s fighting the bad guys.



Background: Like many others, Candy was an unfortunate orphaned by the crisis and sought a purpose to cling to, looking for hope of better tomorrows in the grim days following the destruction of Midgar. Possessing a basic medical training, she found such a purpose in assisting Sierra�s medical staff in tending less fortunate victims. So when a mysterious illness began sweeping through the ranks of the rescuers and researchers who had been combing through the ruined city, Candy was on hand with the other nurses to do her part in comforting their pain.

Until she found herself stricken by the illness, which had only just began to be recognizable as a plague linked to tainted material. By the time the plague ran its course the memories of her life prior to her infection had been all but decimated by the high fevers that had ravaged her body. But thankfully, unlike some of her fellow survivors, Candy had come through her ordeal with her sanity intact. When Doc, once her commanding physician, took her from the infection wing to the esper training facility, Candy found a new purpose, a new life and under the older man�s care, a new father figure to shelter and guide her on her path.

Now a member of the Saints, Candy uses her understanding of the plague and the human body to serve Sierra�s vision for a new world and fights alongside her older companions, boosting their abilities, healing their hurts and spreading infection to any who oppose them.



Limit Skills:

I:
Contagion:
Candy controls her infection to shield herself, any magic or physical attacks for the rest of the battle will reflect poison damage to her attacker.
Infection:
A spray attack that leaves the victim with poison and darkness status effects.

II:
Inoculation:
Briefly controlling the lingering infection within her fellow Espers, Candy is able to reflect any attack back upon the assailant with moderate poison damage.
Outbreak:
A multiple attack with Inoculator that leaves each enemy inflicted by a random status effect as well as inflicting moderate physical damage. Effects are darkness, poison and confusion.

III:
Epidemic:
An attack that poisons all allies and brings on a fever that leaves them in a confused berserker state until they recover. If they mistakenly attack uninfected allies, they spread the condition to them as well.
Booster Shot:
Candy gives her teammates shots that leave them in a state of haste and immune to status effects or poison damage.

IV:
Triage:
Candy is able to draw upon Doc�s assistance to perform rapid restorative assistance to their allies, boosting an individual Esper to a limit break while curing the rest of any status attacks.
Biohazard:
Candy infects herself with a less virulent strain of the modified Plague, producing a contamination field around herself that brings all nearby Esper allies into a state of perpetual limit breaks as long as she remains standing. The attack drains Candy�s own lifeforce at a rate of a poison2 attack, but any outside attacks to her during this time cause a reflected poison damage to her assailant.
