Can a character have its own palette?

I'm making a text-based Pac-Man clone, and I want to make each of the ghosts a different color, is it possible, or am I just out of luck?

The console supports eight different palettes numbered 0-7. You can adjust them in the Gfx Editor, using the tab for it.

Then set your ghosts as sprites, each with its own palette.

If you want to keep it text based and without sprites, also no problem, each „cell“ of the screen can also use any of the 8 palettes.

Technically characters do not have palette but sprites and bgs do.
