These are the normal colours but we could switch in the FF colours in
Thought (Spirit)/Violet - Enlightenment/Spiritual/Wisdom

Light (Luminescence) /Indigo - Intuition/6th Sense

Ether/Blue - Creativity/Openness/HealingÂ

Air/Green - Love/Warmth/Forgiveness

Fire/Yellow - Willpower/AngerÂ

Water/Orange - Sexuality/Needs/Desire

Earth/Red - Survival/Root/Base

I do use this as the basis for my characters alternative view on things, and use of crystals to heal by balancing the body's flows etc..

I have a similar outlook for my monk as well -- just a few differences!

Unaspected/Violet/Crown - Enlightenment/Bliss
Unaspected/Indigo/Third Eye - Intuition/Deeper senses
Wind/Blue/Throat - Creativity/Speech/Declaration
Fire/Green/Heart - Love/Compassion/Passion
Lightning/Yellow/Solar Plexus - Will/Sense of Self
Unaspected/Orange/Sacral - Sexuality/Needs/Desires
Earth/Red/Root - Survival/Instinct/Base

Each of his open chakras (he has up to the heart) grants him a new wellspring of aether in addition to a few potential abilities (translated from the moveset into something reasonable!). I purposely left out water and ice because it didn't seem like monks had access to either of those.Â

Three of the chakras I've placed as unaspected, since he uses his Sacral for pure life energy. Potentially, his third eye simply gives him a greater sensitivity to and interpretation of aether, so I hadn't assigned an element to it. As for the crown, the purely spiritual nature of it seemed like 'PURE AETHER OMG'.Â

Berrod had checked out the Thaumaturge's guild, where he found out he didn't have what it took to control ice -- essentially locking him out of the class. The same applied to Conjury; the man can't do water to save his life -- or the life of anyone else. No Conjury for him!

[sub]...he also hates to read (and cannot spell well at all) so screw Arcanima. Godsdamn. Everything else is fair game though.[/sub]

I love your outlook on it, Nebbs, it's always great to see people who take it to that level.

[sub]this sort of thing is so much fun aahhhh[/sub]
