In Redemption, there are 15 colored brigades with each brigade representing different groups of characters in the Bible. There are 8 Hero brigades and 7 Evil brigades as the following:

Black is descriptive of calamity and Hell.
Jude 13 ‘Raging waves of the sea, foaming out their own shame; wandering stars, to whom is reserved the blackness of darkness for ever.’

Gold is commonly used in making graven images in the worship of idols.

Gray describes people that are neither hot, nor cold.

The KJV uses the word ‘pale’. The actual word used by John here was the Greek word Chloros or greenish from the Greek word chloe or green.
