'k so i read a big book about the tattoos documented on british convicts that were sent to australia, and got rlly into the meanings and the history and yadda yadda. so now basically anne's backstory is that she was convicted of thievery and sent to a penal colony in the outback, and got a ton of tats on the boat over and while serving her sentence, and then she died at sea on her way back to england once she served her time and got reborn as a shark lady (as per the lore of the particular headworld i made her for)
