-Enter a large vast world bigger than the earth we have. The world of Imagi, one where the dreams and imagination of a person can shape reality through the means of art. In here, painting has become a significant part of the ecosystem. Pigment (Organic fluid that is found in every living and non-living beings) is now apart of the cycle of life, produced within every creature's body. However, the main source of pigment is secreted from a species of flowers called Pigmenta Flowers. These flowers are found all around the environment and it takes in dreams instead of carbon dioxide and produces pigment instead of oxygen. Allowing pigment to circulate around the world and affecting the whole environment. The origin of these flowers are unknown but since then, they have been a significant part of the world's ecosystem. Due to the massive amount of pigment being produced in nature, it caused the world to have layers and layers of pigment that has turned into new land, new biomes and new continents on top of already existing ones. The world is constantly expanding slowly, each generation having new land over their horizons. Pigmenta flowers' appearance depend on what sort of dreams they feed on and what type of pigment they produce. There are 10 classes of pigment that are found in the world. These Pigment Types are based on main colors such as red, orange, yellow, green, blue, purple, pink, black, grey, and white. Each pigment have their own abilities.
RED - Dominance, Strength, Power
ORANGE - Destruction, War, Chaos
YELLOW - Rigidity, Law, Order
GREEN - Freedom, Kindness, Truth
BLUE - Compliance, Obedience, Submission
PURPLE - Illusion, Fantasy, Dreams
PINK - Enthusiasm, Optimism, Joy
BLACK - Absence, Emptiness, Nihilism
GREY - Stability, Balance, Discipline
WHITE - Purity, Clarity, Innocence
-Each of these pigment types have their own subtypes and their own combinations. These pigments now allow our world to be shaped by art and is constantly produced naturally by pigmenta flowers.-
-As pigment is present everywhere in the world, humans and every living being has adapted to being able to produce pigment within their body, albeit being a less powerful source of pigment compared to pigmenta flowers, often only for the purpose of self sustainment. Pigment has a trait of being shaped and bent to the will of a being's imagination and creativity. The art of manipulating pigment is called Imagi. Imagi is the technique of manipulating pigment, a common comparison of this is painting and drawing, or any form of art. every living being has a certain amount of pigment contained in their body that they can use. a normal human being has enough pigment stored for everyday use, but this is not the limit. every living being has pigment, and like any other substance in their body, they can gain more than just what they have by digesting or consuming or taking in pigment within their body through any way. often by eating pigmenta flowers, injecting raw pigment, taking pigmenta pills, consuming paintings and more as long as it involves consuming pigment.-
-Once a person has reached a high enough amount of pigment in their body, the pigment will often show in their body and skin, often looking like a tattoo or marks in their body. these are called Palletes, these appear in one's skin because of the amount of pigment they have will start to show in their skin like how tattoo ink stains the skin. However, digesting pigment is not that easy as just consuming flowers. You have to be aligned with the traits of the pigment color that you will be consuming, otherwise your body will reject the pigment and you will either just secrete the pigment, or you could die in the process. All human beings can use every color of pigment, but depending on their personality and mindset, they will be more aligned and be innate towards certain pigment colors which is called Innate Pigment Type. In order to digest a pigment properly, you must align your personality and actions with the traits of the pigment. Additionally, while everyone and everything will always have pigment and a pigment color, there are beings and people that are born without pigment or pigment color. they are seen as defects and are often looked down upon, although they can still also digest more pigments and eventually awaken their full strength of pigment.-
-While pigment and imagi is commonly used for daily life convenience, there are many who use it for superpowers. the government has assigned these people and called them, Painters. People who are licensed to use imagi for extraordinary purposes, having to take a practical exam in which they prove they are worthy of being a painter. And as there is good, there will also be others who will use imagi for evil. another faction outside of good and evil... are the Paintings. Paintings are living creatures born fully from pigment. Paintings are very common and can be found everywhere, nearly replacing normal animals. They exist because of the environment's strong imagination and emotion, to the point where the pigment will start to form life on its own. And of course, there are paintings that become evil. And some, good. Through imagi, people were smart enough to be able to make their own paintings, although a very difficult practice. Another common technique of imagi is called as the Artist Eyes. These eyes allow people to see more, and to see what they want to see. This can be activated by focusing pigment on the user's eyes. each artist eyes have a level of mastery, which is done when the user is able to realize something about themselves or about something else that have impacted enough trauma in their minds.-
BASIC ARTIST EYES - Allows the artist to perceive more of the world, letting them see pigment more clearly in the environment. (Appears as pigment colored eyes)
ADVANCED ARTIST EYES - Allows the artist to tap into the realm of dreams, seeing more than what lies in reality. (Appears as pigment colored eyes with small detail changes)
AWAKENED ARTIST EYES - Grants the artist a distinct ability to see what they specifically want to see. (Appears as pigment colored eyes with a distinct pattern on the artist's iris)
MASTERED ARTIST EYES - Allows the artist to see beyond reality, being able to perceive greater concepts beyond them. (Appears as pigment colored eyes with two layers of distinct patterns on the artist's iris)
PURE ARTIST EYES - Grants the artist to see everything that exists, being connected to the pigment in the surroundings. (Appears as cosmic colored and patterned eyes)
-Keep in mind that the common person is not aware of artist eyes and is essentially reserved for licensed painters.-
