Tattoos
Many Grounders mark their bodies with tattoos of dark ink. The patterns and locations depend on the clan. Trikru appears to favor bold, geometric patterns, for instance.
Scarification
Some clans use ritual scarification to identify themselves. Azgeda in particular uses geometric patterns on the face as identifying marks.
Kill Marks
Warriors track the number of kills they have made personally with a scar on the shoulder, chest, or back. Most warriors have fewer than a dozen, but some few have many more kills than they could possibly mark.
War Paint
When going to war, Grounders often color their faces with natural substances. Trikru favors dark smudges, especially around or across the eyes, while Azgeda tends toward white markings. Some images are included below for inspiration.
