"Body of the message colour"?
Do you mean background colour on the message box?
"White is a little too hard on the eyes"?
Which element is white? The text?
I have brightened the font colour because people (Final Siren) said it was not bright enough.
I will have a look and see what the design literature says on dark themes. Again, I think it looks horrendous but people seem to like the dark style.

I mean this below which is the main colour of the users message:
CSS:
.XenBase .block--messages .message {
font-size: 13px;
color: #f0f0f0;
}
It's very very light. A colour which is similar to when you are typing in the html box to send a message is better. The #f0f0f0 is way too bright and too strong a contrast. Hard on the eyes.
And yes the dark theme needs a lot of work.
Take a look at Discord or Twitter dark theme and copy the colour formatting from that and you should be ok.
Some of the other formatting like spacing needs work. But not sure on Xenforo's customisation abilities.
