### Development

Elkwood based Candice off of the adolescent Kiara from *the Lion King II: Simba's Pride.* Seeing how Kiara was optimistic and happy as a teenager, Elkwood decided to give Candice, an optimistic personality. Candice's appearance is similar to her mother's except it has a darker shade of gold, making it look like, she bears a resemblance to her mother. Elkwood based Candice's initial personality off from Violet Parr from *the Incredibles,* being shy and has a mild sibling rivalry with her brother. Candice's serious and bossy behavior is based off from Candace Flynn from *Phineas and Ferb.*

Candice does show remorse over not being able to play with her friends or spend time with her family. Candice's determination to become queen of Tabari, inspires her to remain diligent and not let anyone who doubts or undermines her get to her. One reason, she wants to become queen is so she can prove to everyone, that she can handle the responsibilities of a monarch, all on her own. Candice holds up with a strong sense of honor and integrity as she works to uphold the family honor and protect the royal family's good name to society.

After meeting a diligent but relaxed Enchanted Pup, her relationship and friendship with him inspired Candice to let loose from her duties and have fun with both her family and friends and relax.

Whenever her relatives are teased or opposed by a bully or opponent, Candice immediately defends them and threatens them to leave her relatives alone.
