- Been thinking about how the cancer symbol on Alternia really only comes into existence after the execution of the Signless (when he becomes known as the Sufferer) and so what symbols would the folks who follow the Signless have on their body during the time of the Signless, I decided to settle on the concept of red paint that signifies their willingness to assist others

- This stands out in my head thinking about how other trolls wear bright red all the time, so it really wouldn’t be a tremendous leap or an immediate giveaway, but having it in certain placements on the body would be something that was only really something that the Signless’ followers would know to do and therefor be doing

- The symbols I chose were related to my other interpretations of troll lore but mostly relate to:

- Red on the tops of horns so they’re visible to others even in crowded public spaces
- Dots on the corners of the mouth to mimic the Signless’ little grub scar colorations (as described here) and red on the palms of the hands to mimic the way the Signless listens to people with his hands outstretched (talked about here a bit)
