Yup, I'm a deviant. Dose that make me ebil? Methinks not. What cultures use make-up to disguise their highlights/true features. I know that Kohl was used in our history, but I wonder about about fantastical embellishments? There are so many to choose from. Tattoos, scarification, piercings, make-up etc....

Love is a lie. Only hate endures. Light is blinding. Only in darkness do we see clearly.
"Oh, you think darkness is your ally? You merely adopted the dark. I was born in it, molded by it. I didn't see the light until I was already a man, by then it was nothing to me but.. blinding. The shadows betray you because they belong to me." - Bane The Dark Knight Rises

Egypt/Mulhorand springs to mind immediately. |

Mulhorand and Thay have a tradition of tattooage. I think the priesthood of Talona engages in scarification... followers of Loviatar inevitably have some scars too.
Although the intent isn't disguise in any of those cases. I dunno about that aspect. |

Didn't wild and some moon elves use war/body paint and tattoos?
That being said, I've always seen illuskans use war paint, somehow. Felt right for them. Nothing truly canon as far as I know. |

Drow females sometimes use powdered Ormu, a fluorescent green moss as eyeshadow.
