I have a scar on my right temple from when I cracked by head open by running into a wall when I was two. It's not very big.
I really need to make up a more impressive story as to why I have it though.

I've got a subtle scar on my left temple that reminds me of my childhood hell spawn days and is a reminder to all of how terrible I was in my family during that period. To this day, no one in my family has been as much of a bad kid as I was, and I fear that the only one who could overthrow my reign is my future child.
Bring it on, Mini-Me.

Half of my body is covered in split-thickness skin grafts. But you would never know as long as I wore pants, long sleeve shirts, hats, and shoes.
Does not really make me unique but whenever I wear shorts I get a lot of people checking my legs out. Which can be amusing... If they realize that you are staring back at them.

Let's see... I've got a scar on my chin from when I was standing too close behind my friend at the driving range as a kid and took a driver to the face (The blood ruined my shirt). Other minor scars and whatnot, that's the most distinctive, even though it's not all that big.
Also, my fingernails are a different shape than most people.

For any real intents and purposes, yes they are. Even identical twins aren't really identical.Vault101 said:
I should probably mention my bionic arm....

I have a bunch of minor scars all over my body. It's mostly the little stuff that doesn't seem to heal. I also have a 5" by 7" inch area on my thigh which is scarred. For those who don't do inches, just picture a Compact-disc sized wound with a little extra on one length.
Pencil mark on my left middle finger where I was stabbed. Also, left wrist from a painting incident. It's pretty stupid.
And I'm prehensile toes away from being the Beast from X-Men. Pre-fur.

Oh cool! What colors are they?NightmareLuna said:In no way unique... Because... That is impossible, but it is rare... I have complete heterochromia. And for the people who are too lazy to wikipedia it (That's right! I am using it as a verb. Deal with it!
I saw one of those cats. It had an orangey yellow eye and a blue one.
OT: A scar on the bridge of my nose I've had all my life. A few other scars, but the only other ones that mean anything to me are the two scars on my right hip from when I was stabbed last summer.
Well I am not one to let my physical or mental scars define me or my sense of self. However since you said scars I will add this.
This is the resulting gun shot wound from a .38 revolver taken a few days after being shot at 4 times and hit twice while I was asleep.
Its certainly not a new story, hell its one that Ive ran into the ground, but as it has came up, and for the benefit of those who havent learned it about me Instead of rewriting what has already been written Ill just snip it

When I was younger, I was diagnosed with severe depression and throughout my teen years until about 22/3 I completely slashed up my left arm. However, the most severe cuts are located on my bicep. These have scarred over now and whilst perhaps not unique, they remind me of something horrible and stupid that I overcame so I wouldn't change them at all.
I have a pretty big network of scars across my arms that I accrued over the course of a childhood and teenage years of fairly reckless behavior and a predilection of raising or working with animals with talons.
To date I'm the only person I know who has a Cassowary attack scar.
These same arms have some tattoo work which, in and of itself is hardly unique but it's stuff I designed and drew myself so there's that.
Luckily all the scars that are visible are explainable by funny or at least entertaining stories.
My back, and legs on the other hand are a horror show of various scars that I acquired during two years of Jr. High pre-growth spurt bullying and abuse. They're a good part of the reason that I rarely wear "summer clothes" despite living in a desert state.

My right eye is pointed in a slightly off direction and I have a wide scar across my stomach from an operation I had as a small child.
I have a condition in my right wrist called scapholunate instability which went without a diagnosis for years. It basically means constant pain of some sort, and worse whenever I bend it or put pressure on my wrist.
I have four scars around my wrist/forearm from a few surgeries that tried to stabilize the joint, but they tend to fail after about a year. Which I'm afraid has happened again, since the pain has come back :C I try to make the best of it and don't let it stop me from being a professional artist or a piano player, or going to the gym and working out. But sometimes I wish there was a treatment that will work, besides a wrist fusion or removing one of the bones, since that's typically done on old people, hence no long-term studies I'd lose even more motion in that joint.
Oh yeah, and this is more of a weird thing, but every time I drink a bit of alcohol, or get embarrassed, or nervous or really any kind of strong feeling of emotion, my upper chest gets splotchy and red. It doesn't bother me too much, except that people always ask what's wrong with me when I go out for some drinks, and it's very embarrassing for job interviews and presentations and such. My mom has this, too, but as far as I know, it's a medical mystery and no one knows why it happens.

Other than a few scars on my hands, not much. Well I've also got these 2 little white blemishes left behind from, what I thought was a pimple, but now I'm thinking it was probably a mole of some sort. Well whatever they were, I kept picking at them and now they've left 2 little permanent blemishes behind. Also my arms are covered in flat moles.
