I have a question about the tattoo.

I played 1.0 from the beginning, got the collectors edition and everything. I even played a while after it went free, but I stopped maybe three months or so before they started gearing up for the whole Dalamud/ARR story line.

When I started ARR (Again, collectors edition, did the beta, the whole nine yards) I noticed that I already had a pre-saved character creation template to choose from. It said 1.0, and it has the original character design I had for 1.0. However, I've never actually reused this character creation template, so here is my question: If I create a new character using that 1.0 character data template, will it automatically have the tattoo?
