Probably not the best idea to just make a thread about it but I was wondering... wouldn't it be cool to have stat related tattoos?
In ancient times, people had tattoos or other markings on their skin to show power or rank in a tribe or what have you. Wouldn't it be interesting to have stat related tattoos?
I was thinking, say low level tats have +5 to a stat. One will be health, another strength, defense, etc.
As you level up you could get more complex tats say +5 strength/health or defense/magic defense.
As a very high level, we could have +10 or more, but not too drastic that it would actually matter what tattoos we would have. Meaning, if you were a melee fighter you absolutely had to have a certain tattoo in order to compete with others in the same fighting style but rather you can choose a tattoo that you like and gain a little bonus from it.
I only came up with this idea because I as a gamer don't like how empty the stats feel. I like balanced or using what I need but in this game you need a lot of things to survive lol and since leveling does nothing for you but increase spell/relic/trinket power I figure why not pitch a stat tattoo idea.

I actually like the idea of "power tattoos" or something as long as it doesn't unbalance the game.

I think the tattoos are a great ideaAmanda even if placing a stat increase on them would unbalance the game, I'd still like to have them purely for cosmetics and further character customization.
