Ki-Rin tattoo

From L5r: Legend of the Five Rings

The Ki-Rin tattoo has only been given once in the history of Rokugan. Togashi Tsuneyo, a master tattoo artist of the Dragon Clan, was told of this tattoo by Daidoji Chiroku, who had seen it in a vision. No man in the empire was skilled enough to ink it, and it required a death in payment to be finished. Tsuneyo was convinced by Chiroku that he should attempt the tattoo. He worked through the night and paid for the tattoo with his own life. It is believed that the Ki-Rin tattoo later transformed Chiroku into a Ki-Rin herself.
