Colour precedence: the character’s own colours, then palette, then light/dark colours, then css (later wins).
In update_mascot(), theme = "original"
restores the character’s own colours; theme = NULL leaves
colours as they are.
A palette without a dark version uses its light colours in both modes; this applies to all shipped palettes.
Native and built-in palette colours give no contrast warnings. Your own colours warn below 3:1 contrast in development mode and previews; the colours are kept.
