| Category: | Character |
| Question: | Would it be possible to add some form of tatooing within the game. Maybe an npc shop could be created to do this. Also what about some type of battlescars or marks if the player chooses to have them. Thanks for youre time |

| Answer: | No, overlays are not part of the AC engine. The engine uses a complex series of tricks to generate the huge variety of facial and clothing combinations that are currently possible, but adding a second pass for scars/etc.. would not only be slow, but require significant reworking of the engines internals. |
