* The Sekirei crests, located on the upper back, in ''[[Sekirei]]''
* The mark of the Battling God from ''[[Ranma One Half½]]''
* Scar from ''[[Fullmetal Alchemist]]''. In the first anime, his brother eventually upgraded to [[Human Notepad]].
** Hell, ''most'' alchemists who are dependent upon circles have them tattooed on their hands/arms for convenience. Scar's just happens to be a little more multi-purpose.
Line 128:
* In ''[[Final Fantasy XIII]]'', l'cie have "the mark of a l'cie", which varies in design based on the fal'cie that chose them. It glows when they use magic or summon Eidolons, and changes over time to serve as a sort of countdown. If the l'cie doesn't complete their focus before it finishes changing, they become a cie'th, basically an undying inhuman monster.
* In ''[[Prince of Persia]]: The Two Thrones'', the Prince becomes infected by the [[The Corruption|Sands of Time]], and occasionally transforms into a unique being known as the Dark Prince, which functions as a [[Super-Powered Evil Side]]. His whole body is covered by glowing tattoos while in this state. He also has normal tattoos when he isn't transformed.
* Almalexia in ''[[The Elder Scrolls III: Morrowind]]''.
* These act as powerups of a sort in ''[[Clive Barker's Undying]]''.
* [[Phantasy Star Universe|Beasts]] can turn into a large humanoid monster if they get a special kind of tattoo, known as a Blast Badge.
* ''[[Fable|Fable III]]'' has tattoos that start to glow as you gain more magic power and morality. And then there are glowing markings that appear on your clothes if you use flourish attacks, their amount are increased as you gain more magic power. If your morality is good, your tattoos glow blue, just like the tattoos of Maze in the first Fable.
* In ''Rift'', the Defiant faction's resident [[Five Races|stouts]] canonically tattoo themselves heavily, both to [[Storyboard Body|commemorate their accomplishments]] and to [[Human Notepad|help channel their elemental heritage]]. Unfortunately, while this can be seen on [[NPC|NPCs]], it's [[Gameplay and Story Segregation|not really an option for players]].
* In ''[[Golden Sun: Dark Dawn]]'' Himi of Yamatai has [[Facial Markings]] on her forehead that greatly resemble the Third Eye Stone. Conveniently, the Third Eye is what she needs to [[Fainting Seer|wake from her visions]] and extract useful knowledge from them.
** Mysteriously, villain Blados has similar markings on his forehead. Their purpose is unknown, but [[Epileptic Trees|speculated]].
* ''[[Neverwinter Nights 2]]'': Ammon Jerro in the original campaign. Safiya in ''[[Expansion Pack|Mask of the Betrayer]]''. In both cases, derived from the [[The Magocracy|Red Wizards of Thay]].
