Your Magical Effect Color

Post by PhoenixBard » Sun Feb 14, 2016 11:12 am

What would you want your magical effect color to be? Even though I like red, i'd choose blue cause it's soothing. like a ocean blue or sky-blue.

Hmm. A bright turquoise might be nice. Or a leaf green.

Some shade of "background brown" or green probably. Those have always been my colors, even though my wardrobe has grown more varied over time.

Perhaps ones Magical Effect Color could change with the seasons. The person of course could "fix" their color to their natural Magical Effect Color, or choose to let it wander with the seasons?

Lost in the woods? Lost at sea? Let your magical effect color become visible and it'll light up like a beacon in the night.

I never had a lot with colors. Every time someone asked me what my favorite color was I would just name a random one. If I had an IME it would probably be a dark shade of green. I'm a pretty calm dude, but I am not very forgiving, and I feel like that colour suits that attitude.
I feel smart, but I'm pretty sure I'm an idiot.

I don't have a preference for a colour.
And I assume the IME colour can change, especially if something critical regarding character development happened.
Just like the visual effect can change....

And I'd love for it to change according to my mood and surroundings, but apparently in Thuntverse it does not happen so.
Since I do not have access to magical capabilities, it seems unlikely I'll ever find out my IME-colour.

Sorry, cannot really play this game. with you.

I would like to say green because that is my favorite color. But who says that you IME and favorite color are the same?
I just hope my IME looks good with green.

Since this is outside of Canon: What ability would you like your IME to have? Healing? Polymorphing? (Self and/or others) Flight? As in, your IME, being magic, grants you an ability. You're not limited to those three that I listed (Healing, Polymorphing, Flight.) Let your imagination run wild!

What ability would your IME grant you? Mine, personally, would be healing. Ability to heal others and myself.

I consider mine to be earthy colors. Maybe autumn orange, brownish and dark yellow.

Grey. Not because its dull, but because its moody and stormy, mysterious etc.

I'd quite like invisibility You'd have a definite advantage in battle, you can sneak around and gather information, avoid people when you want, aids in retreat/flight/escaping a sticky situation.

Well, my favorite color is black. I just didn't think that would be a good IME color. How does something glow black? Would probably be weird.

But healing (self and others) would absolutely be my power of choice, whatever color my IME was.

Krulle, we'll assign you white to match your avatar.

Oeh, powers? I would like coercion. That'd make life so much easier.

Mine would be sky blue. Not some pale imitation, though. The real thing. The infinite blue when you look straight up, at eight-thirty in the morning, on a cloudless prairie day in June with meadowlarks singing.

That blue.

And powers? Oh, I'll take flight.

I'd be cool with either Orange or Pink. Orange is my favorite color, and Pink would be a cool visual way to show that the rough and gruff masculine character has a soft core.

As for powers: some elementalism (or basically just reshaping matter) would be cool, although I'd be just as excited with shapeshifting, even just into a single other form if it was cool enough, or with speaking with animals. Just the pranks I could pull would be worth not being able to cure any disease or injury at will.

Black, with hints of a very dark blue, red, and(/or?) green. Powers - some kind of earth manipulation.
