It is said that some of the tattoos people get can lead to the person gaining virtues from the tattoo, like a tattoo that says "mom" will lead to a lot of love from the mom that it is meant for. this should be a great relationship, as it is very specific. if the tattoo instead said "family" it would split the love between you and your mother by your mother, father and any siblings, but will still lead to a great relationship if you ask me. it stands to reason the more specific the thing is that you are tattooing onto you, the more 'power' this tattoo will impart. So, you have your tattoo, be it an animal, or an emotions written in calligraphy, or whatever. now you want to commit to it, which might change you slightly. you might ask how you could commit to something more than tattooing it onto your body, but there must be a way to harness the energy and message of this tattoo further, yes? we all hope so! Now, once you have your tattoo on you, you need to stare at it until it disappears. it will literally 'go off your skin' and end up somewhere from below your skin where you had it to inside your mind where it might belong, but it must disappear. i call this 'breaking an image,' and i am familiar with enchanting knives and cups of coffee this way too. if you cannot 'break it,' find a few people to do it on you for you, use a mirror if you cannot see it!
Now i want to develop magic that will help people pass through walls. this will be where the wall needs to be passed by by liquifying the body of yours, or, some mass, and then making the fluids of yours seep into the wall and out the other side, like 'etherealness.' this could work the same way as my wings for the soldiers, having their bodies turn into energy with sub levels of energy to 'keep them conscious,' yes? All metals and cement absorb water under the right conditions, all we need to do is get them liquid so they may pass through quickly, yes? with practice, it will become easier and easier. getting them to pass other things through might be possible by making that 'stuff' hybrid energy liquid sorts of things, too.
