I have 2 and it only kills if you can't take a little pain...if they kill you so bad then why get them?

I got one right below my neckline on my back (Once I get home I'll see if I have a pic of it) and it didn't hurt that bad. The artist said I didn't even bleed all that much. Different people have different pain thresholds. I know a guy that got a tattoo in the same place as me and he cried like a little girl. Different strokes for different folks.

A celtic knot in the shape on an inverted triangle on my lower back. I got it years ago and I love it to bits.

I'm planning a second one. I have the "what" ('Serenity' written in Ogham, an ancient Irish system of writing) but I haven't quite decided on the where.

That's cool you mention Ogham, the next tattoo I'm getting is going to be my name in Ogham. Then I'm going to get a Phoenix on my back (wings encasing my first tattoo) doen in UV ink, so it'll be invisible unless i'm under a blacklight.

You probably know this but just in case DON'T FORGET that Ogham is written upside down!

Over the years I've come up with vast and intricate layout of tattoos that I'd like to get. At one point the idea was to get at least one on each major limb / body section to help with identifying me in case of an accident, but that's been scrapped for numerous reasons. I currently don't have any, but here are some of the ones I've thought of getting at one point or another.

Inner left ankle: the Hop Tu Naa symbol (pentacle with celtic knotwork around it and through it).

Inner right ankle: a Transmet smilie of some description.

Right sole: shattered/splattered Goa'uld symbiote.

Left sole: shattered Alliance logo

Right upper arm: ruined tower with 3 ravens perched on it, two of them (Heckle & Jekyl) being normal ravens with the third one being Quoth, the Discworld raven.

That's the main ones. There were others, but I won't mention them (not today anyway). As you can see, I've spent a bit too much time thinking about this.

If you find yourself getting too worked up about stuff that isn't real (RP Threads etc), then go outside, breathe in some fresh air and try feeding the ducks. (Because ducks don't care about your politics, religion, skin colour, choice of music or even your haircut. They like everyone, provided you bring them food.)

I've thought a bit too much about it, too. Even though I knew as soon as I tried to get pierced that my body has rather severe reactions and I wasn't going to risk something permanent like a tattoo, I still thought about what I would get.
First I thought I would get a cresent moon with a rose lying on it by my ankle. I figured the ankle doesn't wrinkle up, so it wouldn't look weird when I got older.
The I got into totems and had various ideas as to a totem pole. One was to actually have the proper totem over each or my chakras. That would not work for various and obvious reasons. So then I thought just one of my totems on my upper arm (still totally hypothetical, of course) but didn't much like that idea.
Then I really wanted wings. Fiery wings. A full backpiece.
So then I came into the idea of the totem pole down my back, with a phoenix at the top, fiery wings spread over my shoulderblades, and a long line of animals (Ermine, sea turtle, white tiger, scarab beatle, fox, blue whale, dolphin, green parrot, and maybe a few others if I could fit them. Yes I have a lot of totems.) going down my spine.
So that's what's in my head right now. But it's not going to happen. I'm more than halfway sure my body would scar or otherwise go crazy, so I won't risk it. Plus I have way too many things to spend my money on without dropping a grand or two on something like that.

Well, some of you may have seen this one before, but I haven't been around much lately, and a lot of names here I don't recognize, so here it is again:

Hope this works, I can't remember how to post images on this board! Obviously that's the Serenity logo in the center, surrounded by an orobouros, and the flaming wings are a phoenix symbology. I would like to have the wings extended more (more "feathery"), and I'm thinking about having the whole thing incorporated into a design going down the spine, with earth and water symbology (since I've got fire and "air" - wings)

Next one is the 57th Overlanders Independents triangle on one ankle...I'm thinking maybe that will be something to do at Flan (or whatever replaces it) as a symbol that we are Just Too Pretty To Die!

Ooooohhhhh cooooooooolllllll!!!!

I'm not planning anything that spectacular. Small and discrete. Mind you, I think the tattoo I have right now is quite small whereas everyone else thinks it's big.
