Facial tattoos for Crows...

[zute]

So, in my story I had to disguise Zevran however he has this big-ass tattoo on his face I can imagine was a challenge to cover up. Doesn't it seem a little counter-intuitive that Crows who probably rely on disguises from time to time, would tattoo themselves?

I agree with both frankly. More body modifications in Antiva. Look at Isabela's new incarnation - she has a labret even. But a good Crow must be able to disguise themselves. There are various cosmetics mentioned in-game, such as "Blush - Orlesian blush" and the women look like cheap dock whores with how they slather the slop on. For a very distinct, obvious facial tattoo to not be distinguishable from everyone else, at least 60% of the population of Antiva would have to be heavily modified/inked. Which would not be unheard of. Particularly if one leans towards Antiva being more Moorish. Many tattoos and piercings in that culture at that time.
