Clan heritage. Some clans were even considered slaves. I guess you can think of the tattos being a sort of mark that shows your social class in the Dalish culture.

That's actually not comparable when you consider it's a religious ceremony that involves contemplation on the gods and the ways of the People.

 

That is perfectly compatible with a slave-branding ritual.

I know some speculate Arlathan vallaslin basically meant you were beholden to one of the Creators, considering what Abelas says.

 

That could easily be the thing.

Not a slave slave, but more like a humble servant to a specific Creator?

Now, what were the Creators, actually...

 

Gotta love how they tied up many loose ends, but left a few, and created one or two more.

Quite possibly, like the Sentinels, who all have vallaslin and are willing to ally with you if you've shown yourself to honor Mythal before entering the chamber.

I believe it is a magical compulsion.  Vallaslin means "blood writing" and Merrill says that's what it is, the recipient's blood mixed with something in order to create the tattoo.  And mages who use blood magic are able to control other people's thoughts and actions.
