Biography[]
Candi is the daughter of the superheroes Falcon Man and Iron Grip. She has candy powers which allows her to generate any candy she wants or even turn people into candy. However, throughout her life, she has struggled to make friends.
In Thundermans: Banished!, her family moved to The Thundermans' Home after the Hero League banished The Thundermans from Hiddenville. Candi made a first great impression on Billy and Nora Thunderman after giving them candy. She quickly moved over to take over Max's Lair and immediately made an enemy with Dr. Colosso after calling him adorable. However, she made a veiled threat to him about needing to be polite before switching back to her cheery personality leaving him unnerved. She soon filled Max's Lair with all sorts of candy.
While living in Max's Lair, Candy found one of Max's Gadgets called "Brain Washer" and decided to use it to hypnotize people so that everyone will love her. She turned her parents into gingerbread cookies and placed them in a gingerbread house. Dr. Colosso called Max and Phoebe to tell them Candi's plan. The Thunder Twins risked losing their powers to come back to Hiddenville to stop Candi. They found that she had hosted a huge party and hypnotized everyone including Cherry, Allison, Oyster and Wolfgang. When Phoebe and Max tried to stop her, she used raspberry pixie dust to send them to sleep. After that, she wrapped them up in candy making it impossible to escape. Once the twins awoke, they found that Candi altered Max's Lair and Dr. Colosso was now working for Candi and they were planning on hypnotizing the entire city to make her best friends, using a satellite dish.
After she leaves Dr. Colosso, then revealed to Max and Phoebe that he was only pretending to be on Candi's side so that she won't turn him into candy. He ate the gum out of Phoebe and Max, allowing them to escape and go after Candi. Candi went to the Thundermans roof to setup the satellite dish to broadcast her hypnosis signal, but Phoebe and Max arrived and fought her for a long time. The twins eventually used their Heat Breath and Freeze Breath at the same time to make the satellite dish explode. This sent Candi flying all the way into Splatburger, Much to Mrs. Wong's annoyance.
Personality[]
Despite being a supervillain, Candi possesses a genuinely kind and warm-hearted nature. She radiates a friendly demeanor, always engaging in conversations with a genuine smile on her face. However, due to past challenges, she has faced difficulties in forming deep connections and making lasting friendships. Instead of resorting to brainwashing people to be her friends, Candi strives to overcome her social obstacles by actively seeking genuine connections and understanding the importance of trust and mutual respect. She genuinely cares for others' well-being and aims to use her abilities for positive purposes, seeking to make amends for any harm she may have caused in the past.
Candi's real persona is that she can be menacing, calculating and cruel. This was first seen by her threatening Dr. Colosso in their meeting and left him unnerved. After using Max's mind control device on people, Candi shows an egotistical side to herself by mentioning that she wants people to worship her just for being sweet. Candi also shows little care for her own family, as she turned her own parents into candy to prevent them from stopping her and refusing to let them out after her father pleaded to her.
