Walkie-Talkie
Take a deep breath… in… and out… Candle is a calm and patient spirit who can often be seen meditating in even the most precarious of places. She is quite fearless and seems to not be bothered by typical worldly dangers. Instead, Candle focuses her energy on practicing mindful meditation so she can guide herself and others down the right path. Though she can be quite unassuming, don’t be fooled, for Candle may conceal extraordinary capabilities.

Candle is a mauve purple, shiny wax candle. She has a cartoony light yellow flame, which causes the top to drip from the heat. She has arms placed very low and legs at the bottom of her body.

Candle is a very mellow and calm contestant. She is often seen meditating with her eyes closed and is usually at ease, though she can allegedly feel spiritual imbalances that can worry her. Even so, Candle is quite fearless, as she walks off of the 60-foot cliff in "Stranded in Paradise" with her eyes closed and manages to win, all while guiding Silver Spoon. She can be selfless, offering classes to Yin-Yang so they can practice mindfulness and meditation, as well as calming down others, like during The Thinkers' struggle for leadership.

At times, Candle can also be very sarcastic and literal. She can sometimes be seen verbalizing onomatopoeia instead of making the sounds, like saying "sigh" rather than sighing. She has a manipulative side, which is especially brought out by Silver Spoon. She's seen to be very self-serving at times, flipping alliances on a dime in order to further advance herself in the game. In crisis, Candle is one to take a stand against her enemies and those who threaten her friends, such as in "A Jury of Your Fears" where she used her "inner flame" in a attempt to fight off The Unvitational Committee.

Telekinesis: At certain points when her body fully relaxes, Candle can access a form of herself she labels “Inner-Flame”, which allows her to carry people or objects (including herself) using her mind. Care must be taken in this form, as Candle has described it as having "a mind of its own."
Telepathy: Using her Inner-Flame, Candle can telepathically talk to other people without opening her mouth at all.

Candle's personality and abilities are likely inspired by Dawn from Total Drama: Revenge of the Island, who in turn shares several similarities with Luna Lovegood from the Harry Potter franchise.
Candle speaks with a deep and low voice.
Candle is the first contestant on Inanimate Insanity to be purple.
Candle was originally planned to be inside of a jar, similarly to a scented candle. This was later changed in the development of the first episode.
If Candle's inner flame is extinguished, she will get the powers of telekinesis and flying, as seen in "The Overthinkers".
However, as revealed in "A Jury of Your Fears", if her Inner-Flame is put out it can severely weaken her.
Candle has a salt crystal and tuning fork that she uses several times throughout the show to calm down others around her.
According to Candle's exit interview, she enjoys playing tabletop RPGs.
Candle is the first member of the original Thinkers to stay on Indefinite Island, as confirmed by her Exit Interview.
Candle is the first contestant to have a first person fight scene in the show, fighting against The Unvitational Committee in "A Jury of Your Fears".
