7 | ** The characters aren't color coded, but they do have Rainbow {{Color Motif}}s. |
8 | ** Every character has to wear an identical uniform, but each character adds little decorations of their color. |

[[LongList Phew!]] |

20 | * '''Zig Zagged''': |
21 | ** The characters prefer to wear their designated colors, but they don't always. |
22 | ** They switch around colors from time to time. |
23 | * '''Averted''': There are no ColorCodedCharacters. |
