So far I've done Red - offensive, firery magics...
Black - Necromancy, dark evil magics..
Green - Life, druidical magic...
Blue, well, it's blue. Blue is a color of trickery and chicanery. It's calling card are "counterspells" - spells which disrupt other spells midcasting, though it also dabbles in time travel, teleportation, dominations, etc.

Yeah, what he said.
The reason I'm using that model is that each color has a real personality to it - much more so than the eight schools of magic do. It helps give my setting's many spells a guiding theme.

And it's about time we had a setting based on Magic! Although if WotC would hurry up and release Dominaria d20....

Never really liked the game, magic so I never looked into the background. But themed magic is a good plan.
In my Homebrew I only made some hints as to arcane magics, so I could still do something in that order.
*puts on thinking cap*
I dont particallary like colours as names though, but the basic idea could be the same. Specialization not in the 8 types of magic (as per PH) but to special "flavoured" spell selections.
Easily done for things like Pyromancy (sounds more arcane).
Other Specializations could include:
Protections, enhancements, technomancy, manipulatorium(biotech), etc
So the choice of mentor/patron in the arcane arts (wizardry) would be more importent. Also If you know your up against a student of "the great Harada" , trying to get info on his speciality would be usefull.
What do you think?
