A rune tattoo, sometimes referred to as a scroll tattoo, is a special [[Tattoo|tattoo]] that can be placed upon a person's arm by special merchants. The tattoo bestows the use of spell(s) held within it similar to a scroll. Each spell within the tattoo is set to a maximum number of uses per day based on the spell or merchant offering the service. Activation of the spells follows similar [[Arcane Symbols]] usage for activating spells off of a scroll using the [[INVOKE (verb)|invoke]] command.

Rune tattoos come in two varieties: temporary rune tattoos and x-day tattoos.

==Temporary Rune Tattoo==
'''Temporary rune tattoos''' have a limited number of total charges. When those charges are used up, the tattoo is destroyed. These have been available at festivals and events in the past, applied as a [[temporary tattoo]].

==X-Day Rune Tattoo==
'''X-day rune tattoos''' or '''x/day tattoos''' have a maximum number of uses per day based on the spell or merchant offering the service. They are also permanent and cannot be destroyed via use. Similar to [[x-day item]]s, they reset uses each day.

==Messaging==
The messaging correlates to what % of total charges remain available on the tattoo.
;It goes roughly:
:dark and vibrant (100%) =>
:dark (66%) =>
:slightly faded (50%) =>
:faded (33%) =>
:very faint (>0%) =>
:barely discernable (0%).

A rune tattoo, sometimes referred to as a scroll tattoo, is a special tattoo that can be placed upon a person's arm by special merchants. The tattoo bestows the use of spell(s) held within it similar to a scroll. Activation of the spells follows similar Arcane Symbols usage for activating spells off of a scroll using the invoke command.

Rune tattoos come in two varieties: temporary rune tattoos and x-day tattoos.

Temporary Rune Tattoo

Temporary rune tattoos have a limited number of total charges. When those charges are used up, the tattoo is destroyed. These have been available at festivals and events in the past, applied as a temporary tattoo.

X-Day Rune Tattoo

X-day rune tattoos or x/day tattoos have a maximum number of uses per day based on the spell or merchant offering the service. They are also permanent and cannot be destroyed via use. Similar to x-day items, they reset uses each day.

Messaging

The messaging correlates to what % of total charges remain available on the tattoo.

It goes roughly
dark and vibrant (100%) =>
dark (66%) =>
slightly faded (50%) =>
faded (33%) =>
very faint (>0%) =>
barely discernable (0%).

Usage
