Message: <blockquote data-quote="Quasqueton" data-source="post: 1723769" data-attributes="member: 3854">Actually, black is no color, white is all colors.In my campaign, I've ruled that only creatures that have evolved and lived underground (or in similar lightless environments) have darkvision. And darkvision replaces lightvision, is not in addition to. So a creature with darkvision 60' sees in black and white for only 60' even in the bright sunlight.This makes for some really interesting concepts. You can be invisible with a lit torch and darkvision will not register anything unusual. Creature with darkvision are used to vision ending at 60', and tend to be uneasy with wide open areas (like above ground). Color means nothing to them, so you can't identify someone by the colors of their garments. I've allowed reading with darkvision mostly because it is debatable (as this thread proves) to disallow it. Plus, I would assume that a race with only darkvision would improvise or invent a method of writing they could read.Quasqueton</blockquote>
