Shield of the Kami
Legendary Artifact
Each creature has protection from every color it isn't.
(Reverse Earnest Fellowship.)
Nevermind missed the each
I feel like as general artifact it is a little too powerful
Maybe Make it cost

I don't think it's too powerful. Asceticism exists. I think it could be interesting. Plus, multicolored cards wouldn't gain protection from all colors.

I like it better as a white enchantment. And for 5 cmc it wouldn't be broken for it to only effect your creatures.

I think he wants it to be non-white so that commander decks have access to it. If it were white, it would be the right flavor, but I don't think that's the purpose.

I think it should be colored. Maybe white, as a "pure" styled enchantment, or red, as a "screw stalemates" card.

The reason I was looking to keep it as an artifact is because it helps colorless creatures so much. It seems more in flavor with new phyrexia so the kamigawan name will be trashed.
But the effect I want is "Non-white creatures have protection from white" for each color, but five instances of that seems unwieldy. Is this aforementioned wording correct?

This turns into a colorless Bedlam in any non mirror matchup.
It also doesn't really fit, for instance a white creature would have protection from white/black creatures but not the other way around, and that's kind of weird and not reverse Earnest Fellowship.
You could say, "Each creature has protection from spells and permanents that do not share a color with it," but then colorless creatures would all have pro-everything. Pro-everything is best kept to Progenitus.
The only way to do what I think you're going for is: "Each creature has protection from colored spells and permanents that do not share a color with it."
Which I would change to:
"Each creature has protection from colored creatures that do not share a color with it."
Or:
"Each creature has protection from colored spells that do not share a color with it."
