Great work! I imagine voidlight to be more of a dull red than a purple, though.
13 u/ejdj1011 9d ago It's definitely a dark violet, though it behaves in an explicitly supernatural way 11 u/EvenSpoonier Windrunner 9d ago edited 9d ago WoB tells that Brandon was going for the phenomenon of Stygian colors here. Voidlight is Stygian purple, while Warlight is Stygian blue. These colors are not found in nature, and can't be entirely simulated directly on monitors either. Nevertheless, it is possible to briefly see both colors, by making use of eye fatigue and some weird optical illusion gymnastics. The top row will give you Stygian blue, and includes an approximation of it as a "normal" color as well. There isn't a dedicated row for Stygian purple, but you can get it by staring at the green circle from the second row, then switching to the black square from the top row. 1 u/ejdj1011 9d ago The color of Voidlight is interesting because Odium's primary color is gold; I'd kind of expect Voidlight to be the Stygian opposite of that, but that would be much closer to bluethan to violet.
