Ink nowadays is non-toxic so it's impossible to get poisoned from it unless you drank a bunch of it, which i do not recommend.. In that case, I'd suggest calling poison control. Otherwise, feel free to draw on yourself or lick the tip of a sharpie (but why?), it won't kill ya.

In the case of workers exposed to ink over time, long-term effects can be dermatitis and skin sensitization. Solvents break down the natural oils found in our skin, removing them and leaving the skin without protection. Without oils, the skin becomes overly dry, sensitive and easily irritated.
