Hey guys, I'm making a setting and homebrew system but I need some ideas.

In this setting there are people who live on a giant space station. They have been up there for generations. It's colossal, it's just great.

The thing is they love intellect. They're all smart, sure, but if you're not from there you are not considered as smart as locals.

You could be an Einstein standing next to the drooling guy in a dunce cap and they'll go with the dunce guy because he's from the station and you aren't.

So visitors to this station have to wear colored shirts so everyone can tell they are not from the station and don't accidentally trust them to solve a thinking problem or something.

So my question is, what color would you associate with stupidity? Pic related.

You can't not make it red.

Red, come on are you even trying?

>>50272441
So they're not actually smart at all then?

They're prideful assholes, so normal people really. Living on the station means using advanced technology in daily life, technology which is more advanced than the dirt ball humpers.

It's basically how kids today are 'smarter' because they are raised on tablets and mobile technology than kids in impoverished countries.

Red is a good one.

On that topic, should it be a shirt or a hat? I think a hat would be more conventional.

Yep, I see it now. Visits get a big red dunce cap. They get told that the cap is an automatic space helmet and in the event of a breach they must pull it down and it will save their life. So it's silly and embarassing but they also get pressed with the fear of God if the take it off.

Yep, that's gold. That's in. Thanks, /tg/!

Visitors are required to wear plain yellow shirts. These are issued by the station government and are made with special technology to discourage tampering and unapproved modifications to the shirt.

Citizens on the other hand, wear yellow garments featuring a small green star about the belly. The star symbolizes the brilliance, purity, and unity of the station standing apart from the dull emptiness of other peoples.

There's rumored to be a man who can fix a green star onto your shirt. Using his legendary "star-on" machine.

>>50272619
Whatever color you choose will be a cultural symbol for inferiority; no one would dare wear red, and giving someone an article of red clothing would be seen as the highest insult. If we make it a primary color, there are also connotations with secondary colors: if red is "stupid," what do orange, purple, or pink mean?

Hats can be removed/lost easily, so they wouldn't work as a marker. I'd go with shirts or maybe overwear like a jacket, vest, tabard, mantle, or gorget.

A standard emergency spacecap; imagine a puffy collar which pops into a fully-enclosed bubble space helmet (by kraut space magic) when pressure suddenly drops more than half an atmo. The collar is bright red, and the helmet's back half is as well.

People not wearing such a security device are fined and otherwise punished appropriately; natives have something similar, but with the kind of luxury that comes with in-house manufactoriums and SUPERIOR SPACE TECHNOLOGY.

>>50273409
...Oh, right. If someone tries to wear a emergency helmet (or regular helmet) from off-station when in the station, they get hit with regulations which claim to be 'needs to be certified' or other such that all but says 'no outside-station equipment allowed. Wear your red collar, outsider.'

Then its not just red, but the red pointy hat.

That is literally in my homebrew. I was thinking that the regulars on the station run their VPNs through their collars.

The collars would have lenses for the emergency mask. And mics, radios, and this would pop up when needed.
>>
>>50273196

Bravo.

>>50272441

I vote for an ugly shade of brown, possibly beige or tan, perhaps a darker brown with a tinge of green.

The Sneetches, by Dr. Seuss. It has some nice pictures, but all I could find was plain text online.
