Suggested roles: #EAB0FC as the background, #8D84FB for cards and surfaces, #5268F7 as the primary brand color, #C190F6 as the accent, and #0E1B2D for text (a computed darker shade of Sapphire, because no palette color is readable on that background). A reliable starting split is 60% background and surface, 30% primary and 10% accent.
Let one hue lead and let the others support it. Keep one color noticeably lighter or darker than the rest so the layout has a clear focal point.
