Candy

"A girl whose specialty is wind magic. She's a bit unyielding."

Candy Mintblue is a party member in Magical Vacation and a student at Will-o'-Wisp Academy. She is a hard-working and passionate student whose specialty is wind magic.

Party member
Candy is the fifteenth classmate to be recruited by the party, joining at the Earth of Darkness. Her initial levels are level 35 and magic level 1.

Her element is wind, represented by the spirit Gusty. The ranges of its magic cover various parts of the field, and can buff allies' agility. Her great agility and MP recovery allow her to quickly cast powerful spells, but she lacks in physical attributes.

Level 35 stats
Candy levels up differently from other party members before level 40. If her MP is 293 or less, it always goes up by 3. If her spirit is 48 or less, it always goes up by 2, in addition to regular growth.

Max stats
These totals may vary based on stat allocation bias.

Special power
Instead of offering green frogs to bomber pots, Candy's special power makes them disappear.

Personality
Candy is a talkative, active girl who is strong in her studies. She is very ambitious and close with her classmates; however, she doubts her own capabilities as a result of her parents' high expectations, and often seeks approval from her peers.

Appearance
Candy's hair is spiky and brown, parted in the middle with a ponytail on the back of her head. Her eyes are aquamarine in color, which matches most of her outfit. For a torso, Candy wears a blue strapless bodice with frills below her collarbone. Two buckles on her hips are connected to a flowing turquoise dress, layered underneath a smaller pink veil. The welts of her socks are patterned in the same way as her skirt, and she wears a pair of grey slip-ons. She is equipped with blue cloth gloves that are fastened at the wrist with brass rings.

Early life
When Candy was young, a horde of trolls settled near her hometown and would sometimes come to terrorize the townsfolk. It came to an end when she was 7, as a group of wizards were dispatched from the capital, and spent three days exiling the trolls. Ever since then, it has been Candy's dream to become a powerful sorceress herself. At the age of 10, she transferred to Will-o'-Wisp Academy to pursue her goals. There, she stumbled upon Ganache Nighthawk, who bore a striking resemblance to a magician that helped suppress the trolls. It was love at first sight for Candy, but Ganache did not reciprocate those feelings. Candy's academic record would soon stand above most others at Will-o'-Wisp. Even though she was not as magically skilled as Ganache or Blueberry, she still greatly excelled in her schoolwork.

Magical Vacation
On the day of the Valencia Beach Seaside School, Candy and her friends joined the protagonist, Kirsche, Sesame, and Pistachio in the academy's meditation room. Everyone made goals for themselves to fulfill over the summer, to which Candy admitted to wanting to reinvent herself, and also confess her love to a boy.

Return to the Kingdom
As she had predicted, Candy joined Ganache in his uprising against Kovomaka Kingdom, creating the Biscotti Sect with many other enigma-possessed magicians. Once they had seized control of the Kingdom, Ganache left for Chiboust Castle to free his sister. Both of them abandoned magic, and brought forth an era of peace that would last for 200 years. Candy quit using magic too, turning to philosophy, history, and politics instead. She eventually became a history lecturer at Will-o'-Wisp. One day, she received the protagonist's magic notebook in the mail, which journaled everything they had learned on the students' adventure. It contained heaps of information, including the dodo curse and how to undo enigma fusion. The notebook was kept at the academy, where it became an essential source of knowledge for wizards all over Kovomaka Kingdom.
