Resistance to:

• Paralysis Inducement (Ranso Tengai allows Quincy to freely manipulate their bodies using spirit energy if their bodies would be inflicted with great physical harm or paralysis)

Limited Resistance to:

• Life Manipulation, Death Manipulation, and Power Absorption (Should scale to Bazz-B along with the other Bambies while healthy, who resisted Yhwach's Auswahlen, which was in part due to her youth and high level abilities compared to the old and weakened Quincies that were killed by it, however, she still had her power "reduced" and cannot use her Vollstandig after the fact.)

Attack Potency: Multi-Continent level (Kubo confirms that Candice has superior striking strength to Bambietta), higher with Blut Arterie (Blut provides a Bankai level increase, which is 5x, and Blut Arterie amplifies attack power), far higher with Vollständig (Stronger than Bambietta), even higher with Vollständig and Blut Arterie (Blut Arterie amplifies her power 5x, and while desperately fighting for Yhwach's favor had Byakuya on the back foot briefly before running out of Vollständig and being defeated), at least Multi-Continent level with Sklaverei (She can use Sklaverei to further amplify her powers, and since Vollständig is superior to Letzt Stil, it's ability to amplify one's power via Reishi subjugation would be superior to Letzt Stil which can amplify one's power 3x), Moon level with Sklaverei and Blut Arterie (5x more powerful) | Multi-Continent level (Fought Hikone Ubuginu and Ikomikidomoe)

Durability: Multi-Continent level (Comparable to her Attack Potency, as she can withstand the force of her own strikes), higher with Blut Vene (Blut Vene is a Bankai level defensive increase), far higher with Vollständig (Comparable to her Attack Potency, as she can withstand the force of her own strikes), even higher with Vollständig and Blut Vene (Multiplies her durability 5x) | Multi-Continent level

Range: Standard Melee Range physically, Extended Melee Range with Vollständig swords, Tens to Hundreds of Meters with The Thunderbolt

Standard Equipment: Her Heilig Bogen, Medallion

Intelligence: Like the rest of the Sternritter, Candice is a very skilled combatant, though she is short-tempered and brash.

Weaknesses: Blut Vene and Blut Arterie use two different reishi systems, so they cannot be used at the same time. Candice is short-tempered and will fly into a rage if her appearance is ruined in a battle. When using medallion, its user need to be suficiente powerful to wield it and the power stolen by medallion is weaker than the original unless the Quincy in question takes the time and effort to master it. Quincy are unable to activate their Vollständig after they stole power with medallion.

Notable Attacks and Techniques:

The Thunderbolt (雷霆ザ・サンダーバルト, Za Sandāboruto): Candice's Schrift, which, as the name implies, allows her to control electricity, mostly in the form of lightning bolts, which she can fire at her targets with high power. She can even generate these bolts from the sky to strike down at her opponents. Lightning Jump: Candice can rapidly travel by transforming into a bolt of electricity, allowing her to dodge attacks and reposition herself. Reishi Manipulation: As a Quincy, Candice can manipulate and shape Reishi by absorbing it from the atmosphere and combining it with her own stock of spiritual energy. It is easier to collect this energy in locations with higher concentrations of Reishi, such as the Soul Society and Hueco Mundo. Blut (血装ブルート, Burūto): An advanced Quincy technique that works by pumping Reishi into the user's blood vessels, reinforcing either their strength or durability to exceptional levels. There exists a defensive and offensive form of Blut, but only one can be used at a time. Blut Arterie (動血装ブルート・アルテリエ, Burūto Aruterie): Blut's offensive form, the technique that allows Quincies to physically match and injure Bankai users. Blut Vene (静血装ブルート・ヴェーネ, Burūto Vēne): Blut's defensive form, which makes its use clear in the form of a glowing trail that traces the user's blood vessels, which appears only when the enhanced area is struck. When consciously maintained at full power, Blut Vene can even negate the attacks of a Bankai user. It can also be used to stop the user's blood flow in the event that they are badly injured, preventing them from bleeding out. Candice's Heilig Bogen Candice using Galvano Blast 1/2 Heilig Bogen (神聖弓ハイリッヒ・ボーゲン, Hairihhi Bōgen): Candice's Spirit Weapon, a bow with arms shaped like lightning bolts. Heilig Pfeil (神聖滅矢ハイリッヒ・プファイル, Hairihhi Pufairu): The primary form of attack for Quincies, spiritual energy manifested as arrows and fired from the Heilig Bogen. Candice's take the forms of bolts of lightning thanks to her ability. She can also use a more powerful Galvano Blast, which has 5 gigajoules of energy and can reduce an opponent to dust. Hirenkyaku (飛ヒ廉レン脚キャク): A high-speed Quincy movement technique that functions by riding on a flow of Reishi underneath their feet. Candice's Sklaverei-enhanced Vollständig: Barbarriel Ranso Tengai (乱装天傀ランソウテンガイ, Ransōtengai): An advanced Quincy technique created for injured/old Quincy in order to control their limbs with strings of Reishi like a puppet. Broken bones and severed tendons mean nothing to this as the strings will control the limbs until the body/limb is entirely destroyed. Shadow (影かげ, Kage): A teleportation ability used by members of the Wandenreich, this technique can be used by manifesting the user's shadows in front of them, creating a portal that acts as a gate between the Schatten Bereich and other dimensions. The size of these portals can be extended to allow many others to pass through. Medallion (メダリオン, Medarion): A device possessed by select members of the Wandenreich military, including all Sternritter which allows one to steal a Shinigami's Bankai or any power that is fundamentally similar to a Shinigami's Bankai. Quincy, Vollständig: Barbarriel (滅却師完聖体クインシー・フォルシュテンディッヒ「神の雷霆バルバリエル」, Kuinshī Forushutandihhi・Barubarieru): The evolved form of the outdated Quincy technique Letzt Stil, a far superior ability that allows them to draw in Reishi beyond their regular limits, greatly boosting their physical capabilities. Unlike Letzt Stil, which can only be used once at the cost of the user's Quincy powers, Vollständig can be used multiple times in a single day. Candice's Vollständig grants her six lightning bolt-shaped wings, a crackling Heiligenschein, and a constant field of electricity crackling around her. Sklaverei (聖隷スクラヴェライ, Sukuraverai): Vollständig's basic Reishi Absorption ability pushed to the absolute limit. This allows the user to absorb the Reishi that composes spiritual and living beings, an absolute subordination of Reishi. Destroying the Stern Ritter's Halo is the only way to stop it. Lightning Swords: Candice can pull her wings individually to use them as swords in close quarters, wielding two at once if necessary. She can return to long-range combat by throwing one of them at her opponents, a technique known as Galvano Javelin. Galvano Javelin (ガルヴァノ ジャベリン, Garuvano Jaberin): Candice throws one of her swords as a javelin for long-range combat. Electrocution (電滅刑エレクトロキューション, Erekutorokyūshon): Candice raises her arm, causing a huge burst of electricity to surge around her before she throws it at her opponent in a single, powerful burst. Candice's Quincy, Vollständig: Barbarriel Candice using her Lightning Swords against Ichigo Candice throwing Galvano Javelin Candice using Electrocution
