The flypaper tattoo was released at Rumor Woods at Flypaper Designers and has roleplaying verbs as well as a base, long, and show description. The verbs have different output depending on the fields customized on the individual tattoo, as well as the tattoo's location on the body. Flypaper tattoos are sold as flypaper objects, which then can be customized before applying the tattoo.

Once applied as a tattoo via RAISE, the design cannot be modified further; it is important to have all desired fields fully altered and customized before applying it.

This knotwork flypaper was designed by Flypaper Tattoo Designers. It will allow you to tattoo your body and will give you special messaging for certain actions taken against the tattoo.
There are several customization fields still missing from this knotwork flypaper, however, a talented merchant can continue to work on the tattoo once it is on your body.
The following customizations are in place for a piece of knotwork flypaper:
Base Tattoo: a labyrinthine knotwork tattoo
Long Description Tattoo: a labyrinthine knotwork tattoo comprised of the elements
Show Description Tattoo: Twisting and twining into an interlocking spiral, a labyrinthine tattoo graces the sun-kissed, lightly freckled flesh of the arm. Crimson hearted flames edged in orange produce the element of fire, while smoke grey and pristine white spirals form the looping element of air that twists in and out of the knotwork-like piece. Verdant green leaves decorate the bark-like element of earth that swiftly transitions to cobalt blue and indigo waves that represent the element of water. A banner weaves through the center.
Location of Tattoo: Arm (this can be changed using FLIP)
The Customized Verbs are:
(Clench): "Clenching your fist, you watch as the muscles of your arm grow taut, causing the various elemental representations to become more pronounced in your knotwork tattoo."
(Rub): "You trace the intertwining path of the element of water within the knotwork tattoo on your arm."
(Slap): "You slap your knotwork tattoo, the sting briefly reminding you of the burn of the tattooing process. In that instance, you think about when (awaiting your design) first graced your sun-kissed, lightly freckled flesh and how it felt when the ink was injected."
(Stretch): "You give a mighty stretch, the movement highlighting the licking flames, at once crimson near their center and orange at their edges, that adorn the fire element of your knotwork tattoo."
(Tap): "You lightly tap your knotwork tattoo to draw attention to an inky black banner at its center."
(Touch): "You trace the edges of your knotwork tattoo, your fingers highlighting the inked words, "Mastery of just one ignores the cohesion of all," as well as the verdant leaves and coarse bark of the earth element beneath it."
Slogan: You may have words or phrases as part of your knotwork tattoo. If you do, then they will appear as part of TOUCH. However, you are not required to create a slogan.
