As far as inked in tattoos, it is entirely possible. However, a better alternative for those that want to go this method, is the Riddler method. That is, a robe with all your inking done on the inside of your clothing. Transcribe your better spells on the cloth with special inks, inside the outfit. That way it looks like you're disarmed, or are not carrying a focus, but in reality your clothing actually is the focus. You might only be able to put a limited number of spells on such a thing, but in a pinch, it could save your life if your book burns or is damaged. The key to using magic in battle is resource and battlefield control. Mages are smart; a good mage always has a backup. Just like a good fighter always has a dagger in his boot or something hidden in his clothing in case he loses his sword or axe, a good mage will have a smaller focus or alternative focus item on his person in case his primary one is removed form his possession.

 I had already had the idea of Riven having a small book on her person as a backup, but the robe idea is FRICKING BRILLIANT.
