Storied Skin

Your skin becomes a canvas that records history as you learn it. When you receive the tattoo, choose a Lore skill. You can add the visual trait to the Recall Knowledge action in order to study your tattoos, granting you a +1 item bonus to your check using the chosen Lore skill. A storied skin tattoo starts with an icon that represents a central event in your subject of study and is usually placed on the forehead or over the heart. Each time you learn about a major event in the history of that subject, an image, design, or symbol appears on your skin to represent the event.
