Hi! I've been very curious about the colors of Baskfell! Are there any stories you can tell about colors associated with different sects or kingdoms?

  1. The color Red is prevalent in Macs'aféle culture, religion and politics. In the Ëzyaptan religion, red stands for the element of fire and destiny, both of which are attributed to the two-headed goddess Ëzyap. For a long time, wearing the color red was restricted to only clergy of the sect and the royal Laila Family. After their deposition, the nascent Commanding Council desposed of this law, and in the Argyos Codices was given the meaning of vitality, growth and stability.

  2. Deep Blue is a color commonly associated by human societies in Baskfell with eternity and objective
    wisdom. It is the color used to paint churches and icons devoted to the worship of the goddess Romót and is used in the heraldry and royal garb of Queen Edda II(pronounced ae-tha).

  3. Among the different Kritzi nations, there is a special color that is generally used to represent Krit and virtues he's associated with: courage, self-determination, compassion, etc. It is called Hörnun, and what makes this color unique, is that only Kritzi are biologically capable of seeing this color. Much like some creatures on Earth, such as the Mantis Shrimp, Kritzi eyes are able to detect more colors in the visible light spectrum, and Hörnun is one of them. Other species who see objects in this color just see it as a dull turquoise. It is the color that clothing worn by the Matriarchs are dyed in, and in the Honś Principality, strips of Hörnun-colored cloth are folded into amulets for good luck.


Thank you very much for your question! This was very fun to do😃
