Version 1.4

*

A font made in the proto-calligraphic style I invented and used when I was a teenager. I haven't owned a nibbed pen since those days, so this font is as far as the style was ever allowed to evolve. It's somewhat lacking the handwritten character my writing had, but this regularity is the result I was trying to achieve. Back then, I wanted my writing to look like this. I had no particular use in mind for the style other than titling documents. For that reason I consider this to be a Headliner.

*

Variations which others made on this design persist and are known as the Xscript family. "Xscript" is what I used to call this sort of calligraphy for lack of a better name.  You can see Xscript all over the PDF materials for Alpha Draconis, a fantasy pen-and-paper RPG I designed in 2004, as well as FLAK 3, a futuristic pen-and-paper RPG which was scrapped and had its good ideas (along with FLAK 2's) put into another system. Additionally, there is Pledgefield, which is a variation of this design that's based on how I thought a fancy woodcut version might look.

*

NOTES:

- This is Pixel Optimized at 2x size and greater, and can be optimized at 1x size by doubling the letterspacing.

- "I" is kerned to itself so that it can be used to make Roman Numerals I, II, and III.

10x10 fantasy- and RPG-related icons. The bigger they are, the better they look!

The first eight (A-H) were made for a friend's request. Now I'm adding more on my own. :^)

Since I have encountered quite a few bugs while making these, each glyph is now tested for clarity at every size. A few had to be stylistically altered in order to comply.

Got an idea or request for a new item? Let me know and I'll add it. I am trying to add an item for every "character class" I can think of before I move on to start adding second items for them. This helps keep the assortment diverse.

A design with long ascenders and descenders, even on letters that don't normally have them. Good for "old book" text in video games.

This is used in ESOSVM for most text which occurs while the player is in the dimension "Ladede", thus the name. Ladede has a canon, cosmology, and eventing which are seeded by in-jokes relating to roguelike games, especially Dungeon Crawl: Stone Soup. A font like this, in that context, is meant to be slightly elegant but also slightly mocking, so as to seem subtly adversarial as roguelike game elements are wont to do.

A 117-segment display made to have a more "mosaic" look. Try using this one at odd sizes, especially with antialiasing off! The resulting distortions occur in a consistent way which leads to many new uses for the font.

Original size: 38pt

MORE WIZARD FONT

* ABANDONED PROJECT *

This one is being published as a curiosity. I plan to revisit it in a larger scale, so I can pack more detail (maybe even entire towns!) into each glyph. A few people wanted to see this version so here it is.

This font is made to have the features of castles. (Proper balance and support not included!)

Arrow Slits - Also called "murder holes", they allowed defenders to safely repel invaders with arrows or spears.

Batters - Angled sections at the bottom of the walls. Onto these, the defenders would throw stones and other objects so that they would bounce toward invaders.

Crenellations - Cutout segments at the top which provided cover for archers.

Moat - A large ditch which helped to restrict access to the castle.

Portcullis - A mechanically-raised, reinforced gate.

A fairly standard 5x5 design with a little added flair. The sort of text you might expect to see in fantasy maps and atlases.

Uppercase only!

Original size: 3.75pt (use multiples of this value for pixel perfection)

A 6x6 font made to look thief-esque. Like a master thief, it attempts to hide in plain sight - putting on an "official" look, or even one that's reminescent of Merchants Guild. But something's wrong. Parts of it are a bit crooked, and the trained eye can easily see it for what it is. APPREHEND IT!

Original size: 5.25pt (use multiples of this value for pixel perfection)

Handwritten medieval pixel font in 6x6. This one is made to have an eloquent, enchanting look - the sort of look merchants might use to advertise and sell goods.

Original size: 6pt (use multiples of this value for pixel perfection)

Handwritten medieval pixel font in 5x5. This one has a subtle rightward momentum which is imparted by the slants of letters and the positions of curves/angle changes. The idea is a font that inspires one to continue forward and onward. :^)

These Guild fonts are meant to convey the idea of different professions while using extremely small canvases. They're small enough to be used on practically any computer system or game console.

Original size: 4.5pt (use multiples of this value for pixel perfection)

Segmented display + Pixel art + Embroidery stitch = this.

"Acanthi Requiem" = "Antique Chimera".

Original size: 8pt (use multiples of this value for pixel perfection)

A semi-bold Diabolicious. It is the same width and size as the original!

Original size: 5.25pt (use multiples of this value for pixel perfection)

Recommended: Use with kerning turned ON!

Pixel gothic somethingorother. Diabolical + Malicious = Diabolicious.

Original size: 5.25pt (use multiples of this value for pixel perfection)

Recommended: Use with kerning turned ON!

WIP.

Inspired by Witcher game(part 2-3) logo.

A bricks experiment in which the bricks are made of bricks. (Yo Dawg.) The name comes from a Duck Game map created by my amazing friend, Star. It seemed fitting. :^)

Original proportions are reached at sizes that are multiples of 21pt! Use 21pt, 42pt, etc. to get them.

Best with antialiasing turned off, although you can do smooth stone, gel, or gem-like looks with different antialiasing modes in your graphics software.

A Blackletter font that combines Fraktur and Textur with a couple of ligatures.

Textur + Fraktur = lowercase

Fraktur-specific variations = uppercase

Initially, I intended this to be All Caps, but the lowercase turned out looking better than I thought. Kerning appliedß

Alternate a (a single-storey one) is on the %.

I enjoy fantasy and such, so I thought i'd do a font inspired by maybe some sort of dark arts. I was thinking of dragons when I created this font

Battle Clerk

This is my first attempt on drawing a blackletter-styled font. There are many alternates for I couldn't choose between some variations of letters--and some of the lowercases which begin the word look better without that top-left swash. Hope you like this font as much as I liked making it :D

~ Alternates ~

< - Alt. G 1

A set of castle doors or tall windows. Inspired by wrought iron work.

Gothic font for Unburied game and logo

Dark Tokken X was inspired by Maren Winter's novel about a Tokkenspieler. I know that this design is far from looking like the styles of writing popular at the time when the story was supposed to have happened. I adjusted some lines of this version compared to a previous one, added real LC, numbers and More Latin diacritics :) as I want to print bottle labels with this.

I made the old style sz for the ß, and placed the alternate modern ß on the °.

Inspired by Gothic Fractura Simplex.

Contains all basic latin glyphs.

Best sizes : 14px, 28px.

This beautiful font is a recreation of an original font appearing in the SNES strategy game Romance of The Three Kingdoms IV: Wall of Fire, released as Sangokushi IV in Japan. It's my second Koei font recreation after Ishmeria (from the game Gemfire) and I think it's a very pretty and stylish font.

The character set of Sangoku4 includes a vast array of additional diacritic variants, number variations, bonus characters, unique glyphs, and also full sets of the Japanese hiragana and katakana alphabets from the original Japanese version of the game.

I recommend to use this one with font sizes that are multiple of 16pt and avoid any font smoothing or anti aliasing methods.

~ Sangoku4 by Caveras - a font recreation based on an original font from the SNES game Romance of The Three Kingdoms IV: Wall of Fire, developed and released by Koei in 1994. ~

A traditional alphabetic font with a medieval flavour. The space is a black circle so a negative space between words. There is a full-stop and a forward-slash (Solidus) as the only punctuation marks. Numerals are based on roman numerals by design but should be used as standard numbers, so 22  is written as ll ll (2 of the number 2) rather than XXll which would be the correct use of roman numerals.  PS: The font is surprisingly legible at very small sizes.

Clone of spellbound / envoûté.
