Tattoo Magic?

First Post
Besides the Sword and Sorcery books, is there other material that covers tattoo magic?
And while I'm asking. How many of you out there use tattoo magic in your games?

other that R&R which you mentioned, there's some in the new dragon, and also in Magic OF Faerun, or possibly the FRCS. They're all quite different methods of doing kinda similar things.

oh yheah, there's the tattooed monk in OA.
 



I have been thinking about toying with magical tatoos but haven't yet. I have used psionic ones a few times. Several books talk it's use. I believe the ones above are your best bet.
 

There's also a tattooed mage in the Book of Eldritch Might, called the Graven One. It seems pretty interesting, but giving up 5 levels of spellcasting is harsh, so I've never really examined it in depth.
 




Quintessential wizard has a few varieties of tattoo magic (using tattoos as a spellbook I remember off the top of my head)

Sword and Sorcery has tattoo magic in relics and rituals and a few other follow ups their tattoos are items with their own pseudo slot limits.

Psionics handbook has psionic tattoos that are like scrolls.

Red wizards in Forgotten realms have tattoo magic that boosts dcs of a school, a spell that has minor effects

Oriental adventures has tattooed monk which is a prestige class with tattoo powers.

Book of eldritch might has some feats and a prestige class for magic tattoos.

I think I've seen some others but I can't remember them right now.
