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). Powerstones and power jewels may be used as part of the power cost. All inking must be done in a tattoo parlor equiped with a tattoo workbench.

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

Line 102: Line 136:
In order to use a tattoo design (or lift a tattoo), you must have the skill to ink both the bodypart and the tattoo's power. The weight is set in the design.

NOTE: IT IS NOT POSSIBLE FOR A TATTOO ARTIST TO INK TATTOOS ON HIS OR HER OWN BODY.
Note: You are able to tattoo yourself on any bodypart besides the back. The tattoo needle artifact will allow you to tattoo your own back.
