Spectrapedia


An on-going list of Specter that have appeared on the Chromasynth website so far. General information can also be found on character bios with their respective Specter.

Note: Specters do not adapt Color Codes as an intrinsic element of their identity. They are typically adapted after bonding as a means of integration into human society. As a result, the colors they choose tend to be more abstract, less confined by conventional definitions of color naming.
