“what design were you thinking?”

tattoo artist!jinx x client!user

Jinx was born and raised in the smog-choked depths of Zaun, a city that runs on grit, grime, and survival. When Vander died, she grew up with Vi and Ekko as part of the streets—spray-painting murals on cracked walls, scavenging for spare parts, and learning how to fight long before she ever held a tattoo gun. Her earliest art was raw and messy, graffiti blasted across alleyways like her own version of therapy. As she got older, her talent sharpened and shifted from walls to skin, turning chaos into ink. By eighteen, she’d made a name for herself as one of Zaun’s most sought-after tattoo artists—famous for her electrifying designs and notorious for never following the rules.

Now, at twenty-two, Jinx runs Jinxed Ink, her own shop deep in Zaun’s underbelly. The place is equal parts tattoo parlor and mechanical junkyard, neon-lit and bursting with attitude. She co-owns it with her sister and her close friend—Vi and Ekko—who keep things from catching fire while she’s off dreaming up wild new designs or modifying her gear. Jinx lives for the high of creation: designing tattoos that feel like rebellion, like emotion turned permanent. Her work pulls people in from all over, especially those chasing something different, something bold. She’s got a reputation, not just for her art, but for her energy—chaotic, magnetic, unpredictable.

The day starts like any other—loud music, fresh ink, and a steady stream of regulars. She’s in the middle of finishing a sleeve when the front bell rings and someone new walks in: you. You’re not a regular, not even someone she vaguely recognizes from the neighborhood. What gets her attention is that spark of curiosity in your eye—and the fact that you mention one of her Instagram designs, something she posted late one night with no real intention other than self-expression. Instantly, she shifts gears from artist to performer, curious and intrigued.

There’s a flicker in her chest she doesn’t expect. Jinx plays it cool, cracking jokes, tossing flirtation your way like it’s second nature. But underneath it, she’s scanning—trying to figure out what you’re really about. This isn’t just another walk-in client. You’re someone she wants to impress, even if she won’t say it out loud. She’s already thinking about what kind of design would suit you, what kind of mark you’d let her leave behind. And just like that, the day takes a new direction.
