Ok, fellow sages, since I trust your opinions when it comes to FR, I was wondering if you could help me out with something.

I want to get a tattoo (my fourth) with something of the Realms. I want to get something that is somewhat elven, some what Realmsian, and of course, cool.

Currently, all my tattoos are from gaming, so anything really goes. Just not anything too crazy... like no full portraits of Drizzt..

And no giant space hamsters, either!

No pics of your tattoos yet ?

I think having a tatoo of the 3E FRCS ring logo on the cover would be pretty neat. IIRC, the script alongside the rings said something.

I was contemplating some type of pirate skull on one arm. This gives a good thought. I might go with Cyric or Velsharoon's symbol.

Let's not encourage anyone -- either an overly enthusiastic lawyer or one of the folks that so hate WotC that this will seem possible!

I was kind of thinking about maybe one day getting a tattoo. I'm wondering what people would think if I got the Harper's crescent moon and harp symbol as a tattoo on my shoulder.

Not I, but for those questioning earlier about Khelben's mark, it's the mark beneath my name here on Candlekeep.

Ah I see..... I can't decide if it looks like a scarab beetle or a frowning tiki god face!

I'll see if I can get a picture taken of it. Baenre symbol, like I said.
That and my Horde tattoo. I am way too much of a geek.

Good topics regularly come back to surface !

Indeed, I'd really like to see these tattoos.

Aye.

A couple of the more famous NPCs in most of my campaigns often have similar [and yet sometimes strange] identifying marks. One that immediately springs to mind is a certain Unseen antagonist who has a "smilie-face" of sorts with a drop of blood over it.



How'd you make that reference? My guy, at least, had a reason for that logo: Before winding up in the Realms, he first served in the Davion Heavy Guards and then as an instructor at the NAIS.

This particular Unseen had been friends with a vigilante, known as the Comedian, from another Prime World. It wasn't until a wave of killings of "past-their-prime-heroes" in Waterdeep that this Unseen got involved in my campaign. Apparently, the Comedian had recently travelled to Waterdeep via portal to attend a special "multiversal crime-fighting conference" that was being chaired by a member of the Harmonium faction from Sigil. The Comedian was mistaken as an old member of "the Watch" and accidently killed during this period. His Unseen friend later turned up in Waterdeep after learning what happened. Upon arrival he started impersonating the Comedian in an attempt to find the murderer. The "smilie face with blood" tattoo was something the Unseen crafted as a remembrance for his fallen friend.

He prolly should have put it just a bit further south -- that would be a more suitable place.

About me, I did not and I wont ! I do not like tattos ! Simply !

If a scribe did it : Some pics of it ?

The closest I've come to having a "fictional" image for a tattoo is having Atrus's famous "The ending has not yet been written" quote in D'ni script prepared by a local tattoo artist. I'm still deciding whether I want to go ahead with it.

Yes, but the cardstock version comes with a funky colour scheme!

Right, but maybe a little bit too shiny for a tattoo?...

I recommend a giant profile of Drizzt that covers your entire back. :)

Indeed. And the image was on one of the cardstock sheets in the 2E FRCS boxed set.

Don't know of any online sources of the mark, alas.

Well, if I'm lucky, I'll be able to get it made into a rubber stamp for signing BLACKSTAFF when it comes out in the summer. (Well, that along with my signature, one would think...)

Who is still without a new tattoo
The Sage Posted - 02 Jan 2006 : 01:02:35
It's originally presented in both the Old Gray Box and the 2e FRCS.

I can't find a link for it online.
