The Imperial aquila from Warhammer 40k.

I have it tattooed on my back.

Huh, across the back?

For none videogame symbols, I like the Ouroboros.

All images in spoiler tags to conserve space.
I've been drawn to Celtic symbols, particularly the Celtic cross, for as long as I can remember, though I can't tell exactly why. It might be a cultural thing (as I have always enjoyed knowing that I have Irish, and therefore Celtic, ancestry, or it might be because I like the symmetry of the designs.

And I also like the Outsider's symbol from 'Dishonred'

[EmperorSubcutaneous]

Spoiler: I was obsessed with the hannunvaakuna during my Finland phase. I do still love Finland, but I'm not flipping out over it 24/7 like I was in high school.

And of course some video game ones...

Spoiler: Gehn's crest from Riven

Spoiler: The Moiety dagger, also from Riven

Spoiler: All the glyphs from Journey

Spoiler: The Halo of the Sun from Silent Hill...Even though it's just a collection of various spooky-looking symbols, and the meaning of the writing is really stupid, it still makes me think of Silent Hill and that makes me happy.

Spoiler: And of course the Seal of Metatron, also from Silent Hill

And that's all I can think of right now.

 

[Ldude893]

Dunno, something about this Buddhist symbol appealed to me. Maybe because I was working on a crossover fanfic and seeing this symbol of universal unity got me into adding it in as a plot element.

 

[Sean Steele]

The Croix de Lorraine

 

[gostchiken]

Guess it resonates with my Viking blood.

 

[Scarecrow]

Well there is my avatar, the symbol for Rahab's clan in Legacy of Kain: Soul Reaver.

Spoiler

Oh, and the flag of the Drowning Doom from Brutal Legend.

Spoiler

Yeah...both of those are awesome.

 

[TyrunnAlberyn]

The symbol of the virtues from the Ultima series. If somehow a system of beliefs makes more sense than any real life religion out there, it must be doing something right .

Spoiler

 

[Gennadios]

The Bleak Cabal faction sigil.

I have a custom engraved zippo with the symbol, if I ever get a tattoo, this'll likely be it.

 

[V3rtig0]

I'm not a neo-nazi and have absolutely nothing to do with them, but I have always liked the Swastika. In university during boring lectures I sometimes draw them in my books.

I only added the "not a nazi" part because of the instant association with Hitler ant Nazism this symbol gets. Its origins are very, very different to its most recent popular use. It's also a prominent symbol in the art of early historic tribes in my region.

I also like the letters Z and V, and variations of them. For V, this would be the most specific example:

[Sandjube]

The old Skull and Crossbones of pirates (as linked by someone else), The symbols of Slaanesh and Tzeentch, a great many Eldar runes. The symbol of the Terran Republic in Planetside 2. Path of Exile's main icon. Anything Egyptian, and by extension, Necron stuff.

The top icon in this picture:

Aaaaaand I think that's about it.

Out of all those though the most important are the first three. I plan on getting at least one, if not all, of the Chaos God's icons tattooed on me at some point.

 

[Guffe]

The symbol of eternity, a number 8 sideways.
The triforce from Zelda
and
The Liverbird, there's a reason I have this as a tattoo on my chest!

 

[Xaio30]

*see avatar*

The Gear and the Spell.
The Sun and the Moon.
The Bright and the Dark.
The Scientific and the Mystical.

One containing the other so that both may exist.

 

[Nieroshai]

The Imperial aquila from Warhammer 40k.

I have it tattooed on my back.

Spoiler

This symbol is just so cool and its iconic. Loved it from the first moment I saw it, the mark of Chaos from Warhammer 40k.

BUUUUUUUUUUUUUURN, HERETIC!

Come at me bro! Blood for the Blood God! Skulls for the skull throne! Your false god is nothing compared to the might of Khorne!

Eh, the Greater Good has no need of this "Warp." I have better things to do.

 

[philosophicalbastard]

The symbol of team Dai-Gurren. Its just completely badass.

Row, row, fight the powah!
