Right. I'm drawing a huge blank right now. I need some non-offensive effects associated with the colors of the rainbow. I'm going for a power range of about 4th- to 6th-level spells.

{table=head]Color|Effects
Red|Rage, control flames
Orange|Pyrotechnics or other flame effect
Yellow|Lightning ring, [Holy], light
Green|Plant growth, tree stride, transport via plants, command plants, earth/plant stuff
Blue|Create water, destroy water, otiluke's freezing sphere
Indigo|Mind effects, royalty-related
Violet|"Buffed" prestidigitation, scintillating pattern[/table]

I'll keep trying to think on it, but I can't come up with anything in that range I want.

Blue could be as create water/destroy water/otikuluke's freezing sphere. Violet could be a buffed-up version of prestidigitation.

Do you want them to be related to the prismatic X?
Control flames for red, and that is all I got. A little more background on what you want to do with them may help.

Red could easily be a rage effect (color of passion and fury).
Orange could be a flames effect, like pyrotechnics.
Yellow needs to be something about lightning, perhaps defensive lightning effects, like lightning ring.
Green needs to be earthy, plant growth, stuff like that.
Indigo I am blanked on.

Green could be Tree Stride, Transport Via Plants, or maybe Command Plants

It doesn't matter what the effects do, as long as they don't have an extremely offensive bent (more utility is what I'm looking for). Therefore, a lot of the prismatic spell effects are out because of their offensive nature.

I'm...making a homebrew. This is a very small part of it. It's just so I can get some input on what to do with these colors. I was blanking out and really wanted some ideas, so I'm asking for effects associated with them.

The effects could be homebrew, even, but I don't expect anyone to do that. :smallcool:

*smacks* Dude, you have a Blade Lord to be reviewing dammit. :smalltongue: Make brew later, review the Lord of Projectiles now.

I saw it for some...two minutes. :smallamused:

I've been working on this homebrew for a while now. It's fairly extensive, so I don't expect to post it for some time. This is only for one very, very small part.

Really, really, very, very small part. :smalltongue: But important nonetheless.

[Holy] anything for yellow could work. On the same page, Light

Plant growth, animate plants, control plants, ad nauseum for green.

Prismatic wall/spray uses acid for orange, and insanity for indigo, so.... Scintillating pattern for indigo?

EDIT: Or, insanity. :smallredface:

EDIT THE SECOND: Don't feel like spamming, so:

Also, I am foreseeing a color-based base class. Which would be awesome.
Or possibly a CRAZY race. But agreed on the awesome.

TWO MINUTES?! Did you know that I make Ephemeral Projection JUST FOR YOU?? :smallfrown: I'm... I'm devastated... *cries*

Ho ho! I have a color-based class in my head, but that's not the extensive project. :smallcool:

Yeah, I read through the introduction and stat block, then I started on ephemeral projection, but it was Dad's birthday fifty-nine minutes ago (an hour and fifty-nine where he lives), so I had to call him. I feel like a girl* because I was on the phone for three and a half hours.

*No offense to girls. Not all girls talk on the phone for hours straight. In my experience, girls are the most likely to do so though.

indigo= royalty, so charm, detect thoughts, glibness, dominate person.

Perhaps indigo = mind, so focus effects like true strike and such.

Perhaps we should work out what Buffed Prestidigitation means?
