What’s special about Candace lore?
Candace via other characters’ dialogue
In-game storytelling has revealed a detail about Candace’s personality.
“Everyone in the village is very friendly. It doesn’t matter if you’re a lost adventurer or an exiled researcher, we’re willing to take you in all the same. …Of course, you must have no malice toward the village. Otherwise, prepare to face the wrath of Candace.
However, If you must go, you’d better find a reliable guide at Aaru Village which is situated on the edge of the desert. The people there are quite friendly. There also seems to be an abandoned medical facility up there which was sealed off by Akademiya.”
A leaker also revealed more deets regarding Candace’s behaviors and relationship with other characters from Sumeru. They said she is cool, graceful, and calm.
“She is cool, calm, collected, gentle, and graceful. She will always help those found in need in/around her village, regardless of who they are, because protecting her village is her life’s work, and she’s content spending the rest of her life doing so.
A playful sense of humor, which she often uses as a comfort to others. In fact, she teases about being able to see the future (unsure if this is an actual ability or just a joke to lighten the mood). A wise and nurturing pillar of the community. Those who pose a threat to said village meet swift, immediate consequences with no chance of mercy. Dehya and Candace are good friends.”
Candace and Dehya are friends
A Candace voiceline has been leaked, revealing her thoughts about Dehya.
“We’ve known each other for some time now, she’s a pretty interesting person. Even though she’s an extremely strong warrior, she never misuses her power against others.”

As of late, all we can know about Candace Genshin Impact is through other characters’ story. Here’s another detail about Candace lore snippet via Dehya’s voiceline:
“I once gave Candace some jewelry and told her to learn to enjoy life and find happiness outside of work. She replied that seeing the village in peace was enough to make her happy… Well, this guardian really has a unique way of enjoying life…”
