Colours of Magic: Orange

Orange is the colour of chaos, entropy, mutation, and all that is not orderly. Compared to the other colours (I've read 10 so far), this one didn't seem as interesting. The attempt to impress the theme of this colour is certainly there but the impression is just not strong enough. Unlike most of the other colours, I think the suggestions for deities who grant these domains are not as well written. Some of them just feels inappropriate IMHO.

While I don't particularly like the Orange as a colour, I really like the Unmaker as a class. It has a very interesting way of randomising the spell power cast by the Unmaker. It's akin to a wild mage, yet different at the same time. You could potentially increase the power of your spell incredibly, or you could just fail to cast it. And I like the fact that this arcane spellcaster is bolstered a bit to survive the earlier levels when the random spell power might prove quite a hindrance.

Some of the domain names (including other colours) are rather scientific in nature. I'll probably have to look up a thesaurus to find a more "fantasy-ish" name.<br><br><b>QUALITY</b>: Very Good<br><br><b>VALUE</b>: Satisfied<br>

Another is a long line of interesting takes on replacing the traditional magic system for D&D/d20. The focus here is on the color Orange. Well thought out concept but could use more fleshing out.<br><br><b>QUALITY</b>: Acceptable<br><br><b>VALUE</b>: Satisfied<br>

I like the magic of Orange. The magic covers shape-shifting, mutations, and entropy. It is a very versatile color. The specialist of Orange magic, the Unmaker, looks to be a fun class to play. You get to have a little fun of the "wild mage" from AD&D 2nd Edition's Tome of Magic, but with a system that is not so bizarre. The class is well-designed.<br><br><b>LIKED</b>: Like all of the others in this line, it is great!<br><br><b>QUALITY</b>: Excellent<br><br><b>VALUE</b>: Very Satisfied<br>
