Tattoos

While Albion’s wandering bards do a reasonable job of spreading news of your Heroic deeds, they are, alas, prone to dropping dead on a whim. And for “whim,” read: “Bandit’s sword.” After all, not everybody loves a musical. If you really want to make an impression, what better way to strike the fear of Skorm (or something a little nicer) into Albion’s denizens than with a skilfully crafted tattoo?
