Magic: The Gathering players have debated what color or colors of Magic their favorite superhero or fictional character would be since the earliest days of the game. Mark Rosewater is directly available to ask via Blogatog and he frequently receives these questions, providing answers for characters he knows.[1] He also uses popular characters as examples in his articles on Magic's colors as a way of helping players understand the philosophies behind those colors and what defines them. This article is an attempt to provide a comprehensive list of all fictional characters Mark has assigned colors to. It's not comprehensive, but it attempts to be.
The colors of a fictional character are a complex and nuanced issue that's sometimes hindered by Mark's Blogatog format. Characters usually have a "core" color, which tends to be that character's defining traits regardless of incarnation. This will generally, but not always, be a single color or a color pair. Characters that have had many incarnations or are part of a long-running series often have enough complexity in description that they could be argued to have any color.[2] In these cases, the additional colors beyond their core are listed in a priority order (i.e. if the character's card needed to be three colors it would be the primary, secondary, and tertiary colors). Some characters have additional colors that are not part of their core colors as a result.
Mark has repeatedly stated that his answers on Blogatog are given in a vacuum, without the context of a set, and without using his knowledge of cards in development.[3][4] The answers in the tables below are not necessarily how those characters would be portrayed if they were printed into a real set but do represent the heart of the character philosophically. This approach was most recently seen with Captain America, who is a core white (
) character but whose card was printed as red/white/blue (
) in the Secret Lair Drop Series: Marvel.
List of Characters
This is a list of fictional characters and the colors of Magic they would be associated with based on their personality and motivations.
- ^† indicates a color that does not fall into a character's primary or core colors but would be included if a card featuring that character was required to include more than just the core colors.
List of Factions
This is a list of fictional factions, organizations, and species (and one real one) and the colors of Magic they would be associated with based on their philosophy, structure and motivations.[3]

Notes
- ↑ Mark only gave Agatha's core color, not any other colors she could possibly be.
- ↑ Mark didn't give a definitive answer for Aqualad, nor did he give a reason why he didn't give a definitive answer.
- ↑ Arya Stark becoming a Faceless Man radically altered her character's values from
to 
.
- ↑ Bran Stark being core Mark agreed with but he then specualted that maybe Bran was
.
- ↑ Mark believs Galactus is core but whether he is also has a lot to do with whether he has autonomy in his motives.[82]
- ↑ The standard percetion of James Bond's color, acording to Mark, is
.[109] Mark would later state that Bond is 
based on his perception.[110]
- ↑ While Theodor Seuss Geisel is a real person, Mark considers "Dr. Seuss" to be a fictionalised alter ego.
- ↑ Mark gave the order of colors for Storm but not what constituted her core color(s).
- ↑ Ultron's core color depends on the version of Ultron being discussed. As a character, he's been written many different ways causing his color to shift based on motivation.
- ↑ Menudo as a pop vehicle system is , not any actual members or any one lineup.
- ↑ Militant environmentalists who kill to protect the environment are
. Those who kill to gain power using environmentalism as their grounds are not .
- ↑ Mark didn't give a difinitive answer for Xenomorphs because it depends on whether they are defined as being intelligent and having agency. If they are just animals acting on instinct, they are mono-green.[260]
