Charcoal, Royal Blue and Sienna lead the list. Each partner is a real named colour with the reason it works — a wheel relationship, a neutral that carries it, or a pairing lifted from a palette or brand system that actually shipped — and every pair opens in the palette tool.
Charcoal #36454f
neutralshippedCharcoal is the body-text near-black for Burned: its slight blue cast keeps type crisp beside a warm colour where pure #000 looks heavy.
Royal Blue #4169e1
triadicshippedRoyal Blue completes a triad with Burned — three hues spaced evenly round the wheel, the classic way to get energy into a palette without a clash.
Sienna #a0522d
analogousshippedSienna is Burned's neighbour on the wheel, so the two read as one family — use it for hover states, gradients and secondary surfaces.
Teal #008080
complementaryshippedTeal sits directly opposite Burned on the wheel — the strongest contrast one hue can give another, so use it small: a button, a link colour, one highlight.
