Parameters

• origin: The color string that should be used as the perceptual center for the color palette
• magnitude: The magnitude as a proportion of each dimension of HCL that colors should be created within. A magnitude of 0 will return n colors identical to the origin, while a magnitudes above 1 will create entirely disparate colors
• n: The number of colors to generate

Returns

• Array of color strings of length n
