You've seen them, I'm sure. Just a regular character but the skin is purple, or sometimes blue or grey.

Use the HSV node, something like this. It's easily incorporated into a proper skin shader such as VSS.

or just make the diffuse color purple, orange , or whatever you want.  HSV may be better but diffuse is easy to do.

Grey will work better with HSV, I assume. Just lower Saturation.

Well, at the firehouse, we put a lot of grape Kool-Aid powder into their bunker boots;  when we're dispatched to an hours-long incident and work up a sweat, the new guy gets back to the station and removes his wet grungy turnout gear to find that his lower legs are very purple.

Sarcasm aside...I believe you're looking for a Drow Elf style texture?  While changing hue in the Material Room can look nice, your best bet is to make/use a texture that's intended as a Drow, IMHO.  Just like you're not going to get a good Nigerian skin in the MAT room using a caucasian texture map, you're not going to get a good Drow skin that way, either.

I use this script a lot now.  Works great for any kind of color addition.

I never saw a purple elf,

I never hope to see one,

But I can tell you, for myself,

I'd rather see than be one.

Excellent! How'd you do it? I can get into the Material Room and tweak the DIffuse Color for each body part one at a time, or I can apply the new color to everything but that also changes the eyes to the diffuse color. How did you keep the eyes from changing?

Stand on its windpipe.  That should do the trick.

You're alright as long as you got your elf.
