Pfi
Pfi is the color of intelligence, analysis, and deductive reasoning. It includes your ability to identify patterns or decipher complex codes, apply them to the problem at hand, and solve puzzles rationally. As a mental and physical color, it represents the mechanics of the mind or conscious thought.
With Wim, Pfi assumes the aspects of war and peace. Where discipline and morale might fail, a brilliant strategy can succeed.
With Jutu, Pfi comprises logical thought, craft/technology, and the devices and structures yielded by those efforts. Rogues depend especially on dexterity and intelligence to operate.
With Quae, Pfi manifests as the element of air and the season of autumn. As animals and plants fly through the sky, these colors provide the structures to propel them.
Ela and Rha are the colors with the least associations with Pfi. Beliefs and emotions are classically opposed to logical reasoning and execution. Matters of the soul have no bearing on the mechanical complexity of the universe.
A scientist, engineer, or inventor might be a good example of a Pfi-based character. These characters translate knowledge (Quae) into power (Wim), whether or not they are the ones to ultimately utilize the results of their work (Jutu). Such characters endeavor to reduce personal bias or unjustified beliefs, relying on experimental or theoretical results rather than social approval (Rha+Ela).
In many ways, Pfi is the defining color of humanity, with our ability to reason and conceive of abstract concepts. Historical examples are numerous, but other creatures share this ability as well. Ravens and crows are among the smartest birds, able to concoct complex plans. Octopuses and squids can recognize and mimic complex patterns, and have been known to make tools to solve problems.
