If there are any lore-keepers on here who can confirm any of this and provide some information on it, that would be appreciated!
You are correct that mages draw glyphs, symbols, and incantations upon their clothing and foci to aid in the channeling of their magicks. That said, drawing such symbols into ones' skin is, as yet, within the realm of headcanon. Theoretically, it is possible! On the other hand, it could potentially be quite dangerous to the caster to draw such powerful energies down/through/across their actual skin.
I actually have a very in depth lore post on this very topic that might help you out!
Lemme know if you have more questions! ^^
