Magical Chromodynamics Theory
Core Concept: Unified theory blending physics, cosmology, and psychology to explain magic
Theoretical Foundations:
- Taoism
- Hindu Cosmology
- General Relativity
- Quantum Mechanics
- Jungian Psychology
Eight Color-Coded Magic Schools
Primary Schools & Problem-Solving Approaches
- Red (Evocation): Forceful/Strength-based approaches - raw energy, damage, direct force
- Yellow (Conjuration): Quick/Dexterity-based approaches - summoning, teleportation, creation
- Green (Divination): Careful/Wisdom-based approaches - knowledge, detection, scrying
- Cyan (Enchantment): Sneaky/Intelligence-based approaches - mind control, charm, compulsion
- Blue (Transmutation): Clever/Constitution-based approaches - transformation, alchemy, chemistry
- Magenta (Illusion): Flashy/Charisma-based approaches - deception, invisibility, sensory manipulation
- White (Abjuration): Protection, shielding, countermagic
- Black (Necromancy): Life/death magic, undead manipulation
Key Principle
Personality-Magic Correlation: A mage's personality archetype determines their natural affinity for specific magical schools, creating a psychological basis for magical specialization.
Cosmological Significance
Chromodynamics serves as the prevailing cosmological framework in the SublightRPG universe, explaining how magic functions through the intersection of physical laws, universal principles, and individual psychology.
