World
The world of The Red Harlquin is divided based on colors. There are seven types of Chromes in the world: Black, Red, Green, Blue, Violet, Orange, and Yellow. The basis of each color dictates how a Chrome acts and behaves. For example, the Blue Chromes specialize in trading and merchandise; while the Black specialize in warfare, glory, and honor.

Those who do not conform to the standards of Chromes are dubbed "Harlequins".
