This page covers all uses of color up until Volume 9 - Epilogue.

Trivia

• The Cognita bot in The Wandering Inn’s official discord has !color and !invisitext commands which lists the various types of Colored Text used.
• Multiple colors have been reused and repurposed over the course of the story.
• It is unknown whether Rabbiteater's use of [Raythrust of Light] in Chapter 9.17 R is canary-colored because of the connection to light, or because he is using some power related to Velan, who used the same color in Chapter 2.27 G.
