- **Emerald Green** #50c878 [harmony, pool: complementary] — Emerald Green sits directly opposite #ed78ce on the wheel — the strongest contrast one hue can give another, so use it small: a button, a link colour, one highlight.

- **Charcoal** #36454f [role, pool] — Charcoal is the body-text near-black for #ed78ce: its slight blue cast keeps type crisp beside a warm colour where pure #000 looks heavy.
