What do positive and negative energy look like?


Pathfinder First Edition General Discussion


Positive: I always pictured white light with a very slight yellow tint, about the color of the Sun

Negative: Always imagined like black lightning. I also imagined every time a creature with energy drain hit a creature there would be a brief flash of black lightning.


I assume it’s unique to the user and deity. For instance, Calistria might be light or dark yellow depending on positive or negative based.

Shelyn’s should be a rainbow.

The Exchange

I use symbols of them,or colored. abadr,keys fly out in all directions where asmoody gets red and black flames.


I say neither are visible, any more than gravity or the electromagnetic force are visible. Energy, by it's very nature tends not to be visible.

But something suffused with positive energy looks more vibrant, lively, colorful, brighter, and intense. Something suffused with negative energy tends to look wan, washed out, out of focus, etc.


I knew I had read something on this theme years ago^^

Enjoy!
