Design their tattoos:
Story behind the tattoos: - Opus Dei Symbol: (shoulder marking)
:: Silas' first tattoo is actually more than just a tattoo. It's also branded into his skin. This tattoo is the symbol of Opus Dei, showing that he's a follower of the Catholic organization. He wears this with pride on his left shoulder, and will show it off proudly, even though many others don't see it in the same light. Opus Dei is his life, his passion. It's through this community that he found light after both his parents died-- his mother was abused by his father constantly, and one day, his father struck and killed his mother, and Silas had enough. He stood up to his father, but was struck down. Somehow he lost control-- his father fought him and he hit back, only barely managing to wound him to the point of stopping him, but his father did not survive. Soon after, Silas ran away, to the churches and joined Opus Dei. A priest of Opus Dei took him in and raised him as his own.
- Tribal Arm Band:
:: His second tattoo is of a tribal arm band, placed on his upper left arm. This doesn't really symbolize anything, aside from his love of tribal culture, as well as design and way of life.
- Eye Line:
:: The vertical line that goes through his left eye is tattooed over the scar that went through his eye when he was young, rendering that eye blind. He got this tattoo while he was pained and angered, but has no regrets.
- Watercolor-based Tribal Tattoo:
:: The tattoo on his right arm is a watercolor-based tribal tattoo, with the blue portions being based off of a galaxy. It was inspired by his fascination of the night sky, as well as how he looked to it during his darkest times, to try and find a path in life. He got this tattoo when he was in a prison underground, wanting the night sky to look at. The tribal portions are just because he likes them, really.
- Back Tattoo :
:: Silas has a large tattoo on his back, which is a few geometric shapes put together. To him it symbolizes unity and conformity, as well as his belief that everyone has a part in society, although some more than others.
- Ankle Symbol:
:: The tattoo on his ankle represents a more Opus Dei-inspired eye, to symbolize that God is always watching.
- Tail Tattoos:
:: The tattoos on his tail are the ones that he despises. When he was younger, his father would cut into his tail, leaving many scars. Because of this, he covered it with various tattoos, until only little bits of skin are showing.
