    Mjölnir is the name of Thor's hammer (God of War), hence, I tried to make the letters resemble some sort of new fangled hammer.

I fattened the lower serifs of the capitals, and made a couple of adjustments to the z.  I switched the X and Y capitals and lowercase, I will do that to the other one, as well.  I still like the other one, it has a dangerous sharp lower serif you can cut yourself on, but this one is even more solid because of the bigger, more substantial bottom serif.

Wow! Excellent work! The lowercase m and n are my faves…

Also, There seems to be an extra (1/4 corner) square brick to the right and maybe below the baseline on the V…

Thanks, @BWM, this one has gone through quite a metamorphosis. Thanks for spotting that quarter brick, too.  Always something.  Still stuff to do, but I like this one so much I am going to finish it and then clone it again for the next idea.

Comment by SymbioticDesign 6th march 2020

I noticed that a brick might have been corrupted or brickswapped…

Again?  Geez.  I have been downloading each version.  Oh, I see what you mean.  Alright.  I'll have to figure that out soon, I will be packing this one up with the others and creating a font family I hope to sell. 

Comment by SymbioticDesign 12th march 2020

This one is missing a character the other two Mjölnir family fonts have.  Right now, I can't figure out which it is.

Also, the bricks on the # symbol seem to be wrong…

Thanks, @BWM. That brick replacement bug keeps aggravating me.  

Comment by SymbioticDesign 28th march 2020

Have you checked the brick(s) on the Ø yet?

Always one brick after another, isn't it?

You know, @BWM, I could swear I fixed the # and yet I see there are two odd bricks back in there.  It's like it's getting worse.  I'm starting to wonder if I can ever finish these fonts.

Comment by SymbioticDesign 30th march 2020

Had to fix a lot of the serifs and stylistic touches, made them blockier (as opposed to none or pointed). Plus, I'm going through the list of stuff from the Mjölnir (Regular) font fixes I just made. Contemplating changing the C finial/terminators from a quarter circle to a full brick. Added IJ/ij ligatures, SMTEL in Letterlike symbols. Lost the list of stuff I did in comments. Raised the bowl/aperture/counter of some I missed in the extended Latin. Fixed the S & s and the iterations.
