In Blood & Ink, every soul is marked at birth by a living tattoo that defines destiny, blessing or curse, shaping society from the graffiti-laden streets of Sigil City to the mythic Inkbreakers whose bodies are canvases of power. Here, the line between salvation and damnation is inked in flesh, and those born unmarked must choose whether to carve their fate or risk the perilous art of surgical augmentation.
