Color

There are many different lists of colors used by the game, for various items and commodities.

Standard colors


Although these are the main twenty-seven colors used in standard ways, this is not an exhaustive list of all possible colors in the game.

Savvy hat exception
The savvy hat, while an item of clothing, does not come in the same variety of colors as the other clothing in the game. While the OMs can manually create a savvy hat in any color, they do not do so except for extremely special incidents. The full list of possible savvy combination is viewable on the savvy hat page.

Special colors appear on clothes, furniture, and trinkets, obtained as a reward from treasure chests recovered using special charts.

There are three of these special colors:


 * Atlantean, recovered from Atlantis outposts.

Other special colors

 * Sea green, available only as a chroma by trading in trinkets at a trading post.
 * Silver and bronze, used on medals and pins to represent second (silver) and third (bronze) places. These (along with gold, which is also a standard color) are called the "olympic colors".  The olympic colors are also used as a highlight color for the Karkinos.

Navy colors


Each colonized island has its own navy, and each such navy has its own associated color. Please note that while these colors are from the palette of "basic" colors, they do not include any of the rare and/or expensive colors from that palette (such as black, purple, or maroon).

The clothes worn by the NPPs in that island's navy will all be of that island's navy's color. Furthermore, any clothes given by a pirate's home island's navy (for promotion in that navy) will also be of that island's navy's color.

Here is a list of the colors available for the island navies:

Familiar colors
Each familiar has its own palette of colors. Monkeys, octopodes, and ippolitos are monochromatic, while parrots and serpents have two colors. See below for skeletal monkeys.
