In The Mar and Scar, you can purchase scarring razors. What are these? Well they are ways to scar yourself or others. But I wrote a comprehensive analyze, which I'll just paste here.
This is a scarring razor. It can be used to scar yourself or another who is joined to you. Scarring razors require some first aid training to use, the better you are, the more efficient you'll be. The razor must be cleansed and sharpened to get the most of out the item, but over time, the razor will break apart, unless you obtain a special one that will never dull.
Scars will go in the distinguishing mark area of your features, and are permanent. You will be prompted as to what it will replace. If something is temporarily altering your features, you will need to remove or stop whatever it is before being scarred. There is a short cooldown period in between uses to prevent overzealous scarring.
Scar Selection:
To choose how you scar, you must PUSH to select what you'd like to change and PULL to cycle through the choices available. Custom scars are possible to get from a merchant who can work on the razors. To select a custom scar, you'd need to TURN the razor.
Scarring Yourself:
In order to scar yourself, you just need to POINT it at yourself.
Scarring Others:
To scar others, they must be following you. Once grouped, you simply POINT the razor at them and they will need to APPROVE it. Once approved, they will be scarred.
Razor Maintenance:
Razors need to be cleansed after they are used, and sharpened when they start to dull. There are several different ways to clean the razor. Some come with other effects.
And some examples.
>>LOOK MY RAZOR
The rolaren razor is currently set to disfigure with an asymmetrical scar underneath the collarbone. The razor is clean. The razor is sharp and will never get dull.
>>PUSH MY RAZOR
You fiddle with your rolaren razor so that you're toggling the location of the disfigurement.
>>PUSH MY RAZOR
You fiddle with your rolaren razor so that you're toggling the descriptor of the disfigurement.
>>PUSH MY RAZOR
You fiddle with your rolaren razor so that you're toggling the noun of the disfigurement.
>>PUSH MY RAZOR
You fiddle with your rolaren razor so that you're toggling the preposition used for the location of the disfigurement.
>>PULL MY RAZOR
You fiddle with your rolaren razor so that you can disfigure with an asymmetrical scar above the collarbone.
>>PULL MY RAZOR
You fiddle with your rolaren razor so that you can disfigure with an asymmetrical scar across the collarbone.
>>PULL MY RAZOR
You fiddle with your rolaren razor so that you can disfigure with an asymmetrical scar along the collarbone.
>>PULL MY RAZOR
You fiddle with your rolaren razor so that you can disfigure with an asymmetrical scar around the collarbone.
>>PULL MY RAZOR
You fiddle with your rolaren razor so that you can disfigure with an asymmetrical scar below the collarbone.
>>PULL MY RAZOR
You fiddle with your rolaren razor so that you can disfigure with an asymmetrical scar by the collarbone.
>>PULL MY RAZOR

>>PULL MY RAZOR
You fiddle with your rolaren razor so that you can disfigure with an asymmetrical scar on the collarbone.
There are 3 types for sale, very limited use, limited use, and unlimited use. They are all priced accordingly. If you don't clean/sharpen them, they break sooner (the unlimited don't need to be sharpened). The example one is an unlimited use one, and for sale as is.
There are about 18 locations to scar, 12 prepositions, 13 types of scars, and about 54 descriptors. You can also get a custom one made up. If you use fire to clean it, well, then you'll be branding people.
Wheeee!

>>These make me wish I had rolled up a Mularos character way back when. I see so many RP possibilities for this with the right character.
Funny you mention that. There is actually some unique messaging for when you're scarred as a Mularosian.

>>3: Scar razors, will the scars/brands show up in a unique feature slot or in your normal features? Also is there a bolded flag of some sort letting you know your razor is on it's last use? If they do pop up in the unique slot would someone need to wait for a merchant to fix it or are they there for life so to speak?
There is a lot of mechanics going into razor upkeep. You can preserve the iron ones for quite some time if you take care of them. But using LOOK is a good indicator. Once it can no longer be sharpened, it's on the last leg.
Scars take the distinguished mark spot. I wanted to use a spot that's not heavily used by scripted items. You get a lot of warning messages when you use them. What you'll get, what it replaces, and the level of certified badass you'll become. That last one is only partially true.
