....or at the very least be very easy to do and moderately desirable, as long as they're kept in a "rare" slot of around 1-5%ish.

See: Silver = 50K ce right now

Ideas for personal colours include...
-Tech orange, pink, green, and blue, since having that as a personal colour = you can match more stuff.
-Darker shades of existing colours like blood red
-Shades of brown
-Pastel shades like light blue

Another thought is that you could with some degree of coding make some VERY attractive shades......
-Rainbow = change the colour every time you load into an area or every once in a while
-Heterochromia = one eye and perhaps that side of the knight is a different colour
-Celestial coloured = the celestial texture is applied as personal colour
-Copy = average the team mates colours and change to that, or take from one of them

:D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D

cool

It's a good idea, but I just have one question.

How well do hotcakes sell?

I mean it's an expression but apparently they just fly off the shelves into people's carts???

neat

This does sound interesting. Celestial, magmatic, etc would be really cool eye colors, and would make your look kinda silly when you actually are wearing celestial armor. Rainbow could potentially be the same thing as the rainbow wings/armors.

I think it would be fun to explore this area some more. I hadn't even thought of special effects on personal colors (imagine if you had a sparkling one that left a trail of sparkles behind you, or a personal color that is multicolored, making them more dynamic on costumes), but that opens up a huge opportunity for more interesting schemes.

don't forget gradients and animated color-changes like "pulse" effects or what have you

Sweet idea, but whats with prices ?

Well, the idea doesnt sound bad, i am even thinking right now for new ones like: Shocking cyan, basically makes parts of your body make sparks or glow up a bit.

Poison mix: A dark green with certian parts of armor or eyes looking like bubbles are inside it.

The heterochromia and celestial sounds fun, but with celestial add "different types", like: Pure stars (being a sparkly dark grey with black background)
Blazing sun (orangish red color with same effects)
How about too adding a "two face" personal color ? Basically, splits your entire colorscheme vertically, and making you look like two face out of batman.

But back to the clickbaity titel, how will the colors be priced ? The more special shades being 75k and the ultra special (like heterochromia) being 100k or, heterochromia, celestial and metalic would be style kit based "personal modifiers" ?

How will they be priced? They'd be in boxes that cost 5 dollars at 10%, 5% and 1% odds. Possibly some at the dreaded <1% but I'd prefer they not do that. That's how GH sells everything.
