The Prismatist is set in some distant land, with each kingdom divided up into their respective colors (the seven of the rainbow, naturally). Within each nation, there are beings who can manipulate matter of that nation's color (Red Nation manipulates red things, etc). There is only one being who can manipulate matter of
any color he touches, the Prismatist; this being arises from a different nation in each cycle, as proclaimed in the past by the goddesses Arke and Iris, to maintain balance in the land.
However, there is are races that exists who despise the separation of colors. The White Kingdom wishes to bring all color nations together...under THEIR rule. The Black Kingdom despises all colors, and wishes to wipe them from the face of the planet.
Only the Prismatist can possibly hope to take down the threats to the colored lands (which have yet to be named, collectively or individually...)
