Quae
Quae is the color of knowledge, memory, and learning. It's the sum of all that you've learned or experienced, allowing you to recall important details quickly and to focus on what matters. High Quae characters are well informed, well educated, and committed to finding the truth.
With Pfi, Quae 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.
With Glei, Quae completes the mind or mental axis. Perception could be considered the source of all experience, and knowledge is the effect of that experience. Mysteries and secrets also hide within these colors.
With Vei, Quae advises or discovers, trading secrets or mentoring those who would listen to uncover mysteries.
Biz and Dau are the colors with the least relevance for Quae. Who has time for research or book-learning when survival is on the line? Strength and fortune have little to contribute to skill and self-realization.
Scholars or students might be good examples of Quae-based characters. They need to integrate analysis (Pfi) with intuition (Vei) to learn practical life lessons which are often at odds with their personal experience (Glei). Achieving mastery of such skills leave little room for chance or brute force methods (Biz+Dau), with the aim to reduce risk and uncertainty.
Marie Curie might be a good example of a Quae-based character. Noted for her extraordinary achievements in science, she used both intelligence (Pfi) and wisdom (Vei) to relentlessly pursue the truth. Eventually she was killed by the invisible threat of radiation (Glei), but not before shattering previous conceptions of the natural order (Biz+Dau).
