Scars Are Forever: Difference between revisions

[[To the Pain]] usually does not get carried out -- but when [[Cold-Blooded Torture|it does]], count on its leaving scars. Similar to [[Healing Hands]], [[Psychic Surgery]] never leaves scars.

 

 

Often [[Achey Scars]].

** Tyrion Lannister {{spoiler|loses part of his nose in the Battle of Blackwater}}. It just adds to his problems with the prevailing belief in the world of ''[[A Song of Ice and Fire]]'' that [[Beauty Equals Goodness]].

* ''[[The Saga of the Noble Dead]]'' has Chane Andraso, a vampire who has a scar {{spoiler|around his neck from where he was decapitated by main character Magiere. While it didn't quite kill him, the scar still exists and it has left him with a very permanent and prominent rasping voice that makes almost everything come out as a whisper.}}

* In ''[[Modesty Blaise (novel)|Modesty Blaise]]'', Willie Garvin has an S-shaped scar on the back of his hand, courtesy of his nemesis Simon Delicata.

* In Teresa Frohock's ''[[Miserere: An Autumn Tale|Miserere an Autumn Tale]]'', Lucian's limp, and Rachael's eye.

*** This is also played straight with [[Guest Star Party Member]] Ward, however, who sports the same large scar on his face for apparently most of his life. We are given no explanation for where it came from.

** Zack's scars in ''[[Crisis Core]]'' are integral to his major moment of [[Character Development]] and remain in spite of his mako-infused SOLDIER abilities.

** Tifa Lockhart from ''[[Final Fantasy VII]]'' is known to have a long scar across her chest from when Sephiroth slashed her with his BFG when he flipped his shit. There's even a Dead Fantasy art of it.

* [[Double Subversion]] in the [[Adventure Game]] ''Dragonsphere'' involving the female captain-of-the-guard, who has a large scar on her face. After [[Shape Shifter]] Pid reverts from being (and [[Fake Memories|believing he is]]) the king to his real form, he is accused of killing the real king. The captain-of-the-guard won't let him enter the city, and will kill him if he tries, unless he can give her the one thing she really wants. Pid then removes the scar using his [[Healing Hands]], and she revels in her new beauty for half a minute before demanding the scar back. Pid returns it, but when he asks why, she reveals that the scar gave her the drive and respect needed to become captain-of-the-guard in the first place, and it is more important to her than looking beautiful.
