The written language of the Shal'Dran, or at least what can be matched to human text; The full Shal'Dranic alphabet contains some two hundred characters, many of which are contextual in their meaning. I've actually had this one on paper for a while now, but hadn't found a way to get it onto the computer untill I found this site.
Recreation of the runic pixel font from Origin Systems' "Ultima V: Warriors of Destiny" (1988).
Ultima's runic alphabet contains a character for each A-Z letter of the latin alphabet. In addition, it has compound characters for specific letter pairings which, unfortunately, cannot be set up in a TrueType font (you'd need OpenType for these custom ligatures, I assume). As these characters (with one exception) lack an appropriate unicode point, they have been added here as follows (to unicode characters that at least visually appear close enough): "ee" 'currency sign' (U+00A4), "th" 'capital thorn' (U+00DE), "st" 'bowtie' (U+22C8), "ng" 'tifinagh letter yag' (U+2D33), "ea" 'vai syllable ta' (U+A55A).
As in the game, "space" between words uses a middle dot, and the full stop/period uses a symbol resembling a staff of aesculapius.
Only the characters present in the game's runic character set have been included.
This is the alphabet for a worldbuilding project I'm working on. It needs the reference decoder (which has not been published anywhere) to be used properly/read. It is also unfinished, and I would like to improve some of the punctuation marks as I feel they don't match the rest of the letters (especially the quotation marks). Please give me feedback on this!
ELEPHANTSO is a sharp re-imagining of a handwriting style I have developed over the last few years. An alternative name is Gothin Nu Gothick. Other names include Fishbone and Skeleton Key. Enjoy and use responsibly.
