Just read this in the planned changes:

Branding (requires wounds to support art image from crafts)

I already see it:

Borgo Sniffletwigs is a convicted thief. On his forehead there is a branding of a door depicting a throne. On the throne, a chalice is branded with hot iron. On the chalice, there is a picture Fulgo the cook preparing his infamous fly sweetbread stew in 1232. Fulgo is mixing the stew with a wooden stick adorned with rings of hematite and pig tails. The whole image is menacing with moral implications and aura of behavioral correction.

I'm so gonna try to get my all my adventures branded on my arms.

I'm imagining a dwarf with "SCAPEGOAT" branded across his forehead after the king wanted a toe ring made out of platinum and chalk.

I'm imagining the same problems inherent in combining the dwarven aesthetic with tattoos.

"This is a finely-made brand of a masterful engraving of an exceptionally-made statue of Reg Cattenrigoth and cheese. Reg Cattenrigoth is surrounded by the cheese. Reg Cattenrigoth is making a plaintive gesture."

Screw beatings, the punishment should be going around with that on your face for the rest of your life. Though if it was finely made, it might give some dwarves good thoughts when this guy walks by, especially if some of them have preferences for brands.

This random thought occurred to me while I was reading this thread.
What if we ended up with a Planepacked of brands?
I'd say it'd be pretty damn awesome to have the entire history of the world branded onto your body.
