Candice Rhea Stokes
FACE CLAIM: Kiersey Clemons

♦THE BASICS♦

AGE: 15
GENDER: Female
ORIENTATION: Bisexual.
POSITION: Freshman in High School at Bellefonte Academy.

♦THE ABILITY♦

POWER:

Matter Ingestion: Candice can bite, chew, and digest nearly anything without any side effects to herself. Even if the object is highly toxic, extremely durable, explosive, etc. she wouldn’t suffer anything more than a stomach ache at most. The inner walls as well as her teeth seem to be highly resistant to injuries of all kinds because of this. Her stomach acids are fast acting and able to properly process the food into calories and ordinary waste, as others do when they eat something.

Infinite Digestive System: Candice can also gulp down and hold objects in a seemingly cartoonish fashion, able to carry and hold extremely large and heavy objects within her stomach, until digested. Due to this, after the object travels past her tonsils, it doesn’t seem to show physically, nor effect her overall body weight.

LIMITATIONS:

Matter Ingestion:

[/b] Her body can only negate the harmful effects of things that enter her orally. So, she can still get sick or poisoned, if say injected with a drug, or inhaling dangerous chemicals, for example.
• Can only eat solid objects and liquids, her powers won’t work on other forms of matter.
• Only her digestive system is highly durable and injury resistant, no other parts of her body outside of it.
[/ul]

Infinite Digestive System:

[/b] Can only swallow up to a watermelon in size at one time.
• Her stomach isn’t really infinite, it is only able to contain a volume of 42 gallons (158.98 liters), or about as much as a filled small bathtub, without showing no more than a well fed stomach on the outside.
• Can be made to vomit overall contents back up if her stomach is shaken up too much from the outside, or something like an illness.
[/ul]

SIDE-EFFECTS:

[/b] Needs 10,500 calories a day to survive or she’ll starve within a couple of days.
• Developed Pica-like impulses.
• Developed Sleep-Eating Disorder.

♦THE CHARACTER♦

HEIGHT: 5’ (152.4 cm).
HAIR COLOR: Black.
EYE COLOR: Dark Brown/Black.

MISC: As for clothing she prefers basketball shorts, simple t-shirts, and jogging sneakers. Candice actually isn't much for fashion. This doesn't me she doesn't know how to look nice or dress up, far from it, she just isn't much on wearing anything that isn't loose or comfortable. So, she usually dresses simple and easy clothes to change into or wear.

PERSONALITY: The number one thing people would notice about Candice is she is the ideal example of a tomboy and a rather mischievous youngster, but still a teenager trying to figure out who she is. She's uncouth, thinking grace and class is for princesses type girls, not outside, sportsy girls like herself. If she needs to burp, she'd belch like a grown man and thinks farts are hilarious. Definitely not one to have filters. She's hyperactive due to how much energy her body gets from calories, making her talk fast and have a hard time sitting still. She tends to be a scatter brain from time to time. She’s also rather reckless and impulsive. Not only that, but due to growing up around a bunch of older brothers, her uncles, and her dad, she grew to be rather competitive and very outgoing.

At first it was to prove that she could be “one of the guys”. Now, it’s because she just likes challenging herself. She is also easily distracted, especially when it comes to food or something she likes. Candice is highly optimistic and humorous, loving to play, tease, sass, be sarcastic, and even vulgar. She doesn’t normally beat around the bush, aiming to get straight to the point. Definitely not one to hold back or bite her tongue. Not one to get embarrassed. Speaking of, why she has no trouble sticking up for others. In fact, she’s definitely the type to throw firsts if other methods have been exhausted, no matter how big, bad, or tough the individual may think they are. She’s hardworking, courageous, and a bit of an adrenaline junky, loving to have stuff to do, especially if it gets her heart racing.

SECRET(S): Due to her general opinion that one shouldn’t keep secrets unless, for example keeping one for a friend or family member. Candice likes to wear her opinions, feelings, etc. on her forehead and admit to wrongdoings or something normal people feel the need to keep to themselves. Thus she doesn’t really have any noteworthy personal secrets.

♦THE HISTORY♦

Born in Harlem, New York City, New York, Candice’s mother died while she was too young to remember from breast cancer. So, she was raised by her father, Wallace Stokes, her two uncles, John and Cornell, her three older brothers Luke, Willis, and Jordan. She also had her three cousins around her age growing up, Eddie, Tyson, and Carter. Due to being brought up around so many boys and men, she wasn’t babied just because she was the only girl. Candice quickly adopted the “just another dude” mentality at a young age. She would mimic and try to get involved with any activities that she witnessed her many male figures do. No matter how small, gross, dirty, or dangerous, she did it without giving her gender any thought.

She just tried, giving whatever she wanted to work for her 100%. Candice never seen to mind getting dirty, even dressing or being prepared for such a situation. Once she entered school for the first time she took a liking to hang around the other boys instead of girls, especially taking a liking to any physical activity she was given. This however did get her picked on a little bit by some of the other girls as she wasn’t “like how a girl is supposed to be”. As time went on and as Candice matured, she joined the Girl Scouts, started to get interested in sports, as well as auto mechanics and how to do simple home maintenance. However, once she was in Middle School, she also got addicted to sports, mainly basketball and track, joining the school teams.

Due to practicing hard with her brothers, she was the best player in her school for basketball and the second best member of the track team. This granted her more friends as well as more acceptance from the other students. This continued all the way through middle school and during her first year in high school. Around this time Candice begun to workout regularly and even took kickboxing lessons from her Uncle Cornell. However, about a couple of weeks ago she slowly started to develop her powers. Not realizing what was happening to her, she ended up being hospitalized due to lack of food one day. Soon after, she was helped out and was just barely transferred to the academy.
