Welcome to Gaia! ::

(Lightly) Possessed was that color scheme that I found pretty but didn't had enough interest to actually collect it. I suppose I liked it enough to create a color scheme thread of it together with polar and mournful back then, which kind of died when I began tracking all blue items on Gaia. Eventually, I separated it from the shades of blue thread and transferred it to the guild's teal color scheme thread because I find it nearer to teal than blue.

Regarding the naming of the two Possessed schemes, lightly possessed was unofficially called Ghost back then, because it had the ghost tag on it. And because some items had the name ghostly on them, it sometimes can get confused with the ghostly scheme, which is now called mournful. When Deeply Possessed was first introduced, it didn't have an official name, but a lot of items were tagged possessed and deep, so eventually, the name stuck, and ghost became old/lightly possessed while the newer possessed became deeply possessed because Gaia officially named it afterwards in the seasonal tie-dye schemes. Just a warning though, if you're going to search for items in these two schemes in the MP, most of the items are not tagged properly so you'll mostly see the deeply possessed items than the lightly possessed ones.

As for Ectoplasm, I'll pass on it. I'm not much into artesian green despite the fact that I track the stagony scheme where artesian was first introduced. I prefer stagony over it.

I don't own items from any of the featured schemes, so I'll just use my showcase avis here:

Let's rock this. I love breaking out items I haven't been able to work into anything for a while.

Deeply Possessed. I utilized this scheme heavily in our Schoolboy and Biohazard sections. As per usual, I really enjoy turquoise, despite the fact it can be overwhelming. The SeongMi Possessed Doll is the epitome of the scheme to me, though I omitted the optional red, because of how delicately it's detailing turned out and how the turquoise doesn't completely overpower the ghostly blue. My goto with this scheme is silver and pure white (though due to horns, I needed to mix whites), because the brilliance helps moderate the turquoise. Notable schemes I've included are saiphic and wintermint here, as well as a little unnamed blue from older items. I tried to work in Spica, but there was just too much blue to contend with instead of getting the aqua to come out. I saw several similar blues in searching 'aqua', but also a lot of items too green tinged to count. I've done possessed using the red before, but it just doesn't speak to me, unlike pairing orange and blue.

Lightly Possessed, and I really adore that distinction and how it sounds. Lightly Possessed is tricky because the old ghost-type items are so badly tagged. I'll take any excuse though to rock the Juno Recolors in the modern era though, so worked around that (that train in position 1!). I hit the silvers and whites again hard to add some elegance and balance (the old skirts and their slots make it impossible to layer skirts in the most ideal way), but notably here I'm using some robin and luminescence. I think ghostly blue could see a comeback if combined with something else, since schemes like milan (blue yellow) are so popular and blue in general has never had a rise and fall like other colors.

Ectoplasm is a joy because green (you can get away with a little seabreeze and midori in the right places), but boy, am I annoyed at these horns that I can glitch successfully in dressup to be multicolored, but can't get to save to the forums.
Again, saiphic and wintermint are my friends here, to go with ectoplasm itself, stagony, seabreeze, and midori. Oh, and independensea, can't forget that. None of them are perfect matches, but the starkness of the black heavily distracts and helps the pairings. Despite my general lack of interest in black, I could see myself wearing ectoplasm more, even if it would be up to the user to put out any more items in it, since Gaia is so stuck on midori, seabreeze, and so on. Even their stagony is purple-heavy (everything is purple heavy, let's be real). I really like the way the scheme is treated though, taking and showcasing artesian green. I super approve and would support this scheme more if more happened.
