The sentence reads

> 俺は派手にハッキリと命の順序を決めている

I understand the sentence as meaning "I'll establish a clear gaudy life
priority" however I am confused as the the exact role に is playing. I would
hazard a guess its designating the source of the action but I'm not 100% sure.

Any help would be much appreciated.

question
grammar particles particle-に
Usage of the に particle in this sentence
派手に describes the manner in which the priority is determined (so it doesn't
describe the nature of the priority itself).

So the sentence means: `I have decided on the priority of lives, clearly and
flamboyantly`

Note that if you parse the sentence correctly, it doesn't mean "your priority
in life" but rather "priority of other lives (as in who should live/die)".

It's an odd sentence (also in Japanese) - I'm guessing it's from anime/manga.
It's probably purposefully odd to make an impact.

answer
This に ending turns the na-adjective 派手な into an adverb. A couple of more
examples:

  * 静かな部屋 (quiet room) 静かに歩く(walk quietly)

  * 元気な女の子 (energetic girl) 元気に遊ぶ (play energetically)
