With a powerstone and some magic ink to hand, you can prepare your skin for the tattoos of a dedicated and fearsome monk. You can prepare your skin up to four times, and each time will grant some basic armour protection, stacking up to a maximum of 8%. See <tt>HELP ARMOUR</tt> for more details. | |||

Tattooing is not only the art of illustrating the skin, but also of infusing ka energies into the ink itself, creating a symbiotic link between the tattoo and the subject's natural ka field. This is an intense procedure requiring concentration and focus. As every tattoo has a weight (how large and/or detailed it is), it will naturally take longer to ink a tattoo with a greater weight than one with a low weight. If the tattoo artist loses concentration during the process, they will consume the tints needed to ink the tattoo. At the end of the process, the tattoo artist will infuse the tattoo with a ka field, draining his or her own energy reserves in the process (amount approximately 1% of power reserves per 1 point of weight).

Tattoos are permanent. However, the tattoo artist can lift the tattoo which is just as time consuming and power-draining as inking a tattoo. | Tattoos are permanent. However, the tattoo artist can lift the tattoo which is just as time consuming and power-draining as inking a tattoo. | ||
