(tilde)H   ~H  Highlight Highlight Faint
(tilde)U   ~U  Undo      (uses previous color)

To make a color bright, use '~H' in front of the color.
To make a color dim, use '~F' in front of the color.
(Note that dim colors won't work on most terminals.)

Most people opt to put color in their titles, but color may also be added to
descriptions or notes.  Use of color when building is discouraged.

Note - If you're using Zmud as your client, you may have to turn off Zmud's
parsing control to use special characters.  You can do this by clicking on
the TV-like icon to the right of your typing field.

The color scheme has been set up to allow characters to better see what
is happening during fights, hence may not be as colorful as you are used to.
If you have comments on the color scheme, or think that certain colors suck
for some things, post us a note and we'll take a look at it.
