About this Font
This font is distributed as shareware as part of a promotion for the
Scriptorium Font Library.
If you use this font for thirty days or for any publication or
commercial purpose you are obligated to register it as shareware.
To register the font you may pay a $5 registration fee to Ragnarok, or
you may order a sampler disk or the disk on which the font is featured for
$15. The later option is the best deal because you'll get a whole disk of
legitimate, registered fonts for a very low price.
If for some reason you wish to distribute this font as part of a
shareware collection or package, please contact us first at the address
(netmail or US Mail) or phone number given below.
The rest of this is our standard catalog. If you like this font you'll
love some of the hundred-plus other fonts in the Scriptorium Font Library.
The Scriptorium Font Library
The Scriptorium Font Library is a collection of fonts designed by Dave
Nalle of Ragnarok Games for use in their publications, but now available to
the public by direct mail. The emphasis of the collection is on original
display fonts, unique historically based calligraphy, foreign language and
unusual decorative art fonts. Unlike large font houses which produce cloned
packages of the same 100 standard fonts, we offer high quality fonts you've
never seen before and can't get anywhere else.
Provided here is an up to date listing of all the font disks available
at this time. Each disk includes as many fonts as we can fit on it (usually
8 to 12 fonts). They are fully registered when you purchase the disk.
SFL-1001: Font Sampler I
This disk includes 3 text fonts, 3 calligraphic fonts, 3 display fonts
and 3 specialty fonts taken from our original series of font disks. It
includes our very popular Taranis font as well as the new Fabliaux font, the
medieval calligraphic fonts Bastarda and Courthand, plus two fonts from the
Ysgarth role-playing game and the uniquely mystical Goetic font based on 18th
century magical scripts. $15. Update $5.
SFL-1002: Font Sampler II
This contains a new variety selection of fonts, including text, display,
decorative and calligraphic fonts taken mostly from our second series of font
disks. $15. Update $5.
SFL-1003: Font Sampler III
A selection of fonts taken from our third series of font disks,
including some decorative initials, art fonts and unique display fonts. $15.
Update $5.
SFL-2001: Text Fonts
This contains 10 unique serif and sans-serif fonts which meet the high
resolution demands of all text uses. The collection includes some elegant
traditional fonts (both serif and sans-serif) like our Tancred and Palomides
fonts, plus some very unusual offerings like the Kelmscott font based on
William Morris' Troy font from the Kelmscott edition of Chaucer's works.
$15. Update $5.
SFL-2002: More Text Fonts
A collection of sophisticated and flexible text fonts, including some
unique fonts and some based on classic styles. Includes Boswell, Alcibiades,
Proserpina, Ruffian and 6 other fonts. $15. Update $5.
SFL-3001: Display Fonts
This disk features 10 attractive display fonts, including several art
nouveau and medieval styles, plus a couple of unusual special use fonts. Our
favorites are the Starfield font, which looks like a scattered field of
stars, the Buccaneer font, drawn from 17th century wanted posters and the
Ariosto and Elysian fonts based on hand drawn fonts of the Munich Jugendstil
movement of the 1890s. $15. Update $5.
SFL-3002: Display Fonts II
This disk features 10 unusual display fonts, including a number of
interesting Art Nouveau and early modern book plate styles, such as
Beaumarchais, Averoigne and Cymbeline. $15. Update $5.
SFL-3003: Display Fonts III
Ten more display fonts, including some of our strangest, such as
Golgotha (made of piled skulls), Eglantine, Mayhem and Sanguinary (title font
from the game Suburban Slasher - great for horror buffs). $15. Update $5.

Rochambeau and others. $15. Update $5.

Celtic-style fonts, fonts based on medieval and renaissance calligraphy and
calligraphy from several 19th century art nouveau designers. Includes
Bastarda, Courthand, Fabliaux, Rackham and others. Because these are based
on genuine calligraphy they may not include all the characters you may expect
and may include specialty characters or strange alternate forms for some
letters. $15. Update $5.

This disk includes a variety of medieval English, French and Italian
lettering styles plus several Eastern European styles and a special font
based on the calligraphy of Howard Pyle. $15. Update $5.

alphabet, including both obscure real world and historical languages and
role-playing game world languages. Check out the Bahairic and Futhark fonts
if you want something really different. Oh, and did you say you were going
mad because you couldn't decorate your computer-generated icons without
Church Slavonic? Well, try Patriarch. It reads in English, but looks like
Church Slavonic. $15. Update $5.
SFL - 6001: Decorative Fonts
A special assortment of art fonts where each letter is a decorative
initial or small picture. It includes several illuminated manuscript
alphabets, the extremely intricate Maidens font and some Art Nouveau floral
motifs. Because of the detail of these decorative initials only 5 fonts are
presented on this disk, but they are well worth it. $15. Update $5.
SFL - 6002: Decorative Fonts II
This collection of decorative fonts includes some medieval classics and
some very detailed 19th century fonts, as well as decroative initials based
on the works of Howard Pyle and John D. Batten. Because of the intricacy of
these fonts only 5 fonts are presented on this disk. $15. Update $5.
SFL - 6003: Decorative Fonts III
Five new decorative initial sets. Fonts featured include the rather
bizarre Otherworld and Netherworld fonts, the Italian art nouveau face
Campobello, Florimel and more. $15. Update $5.
SFL - 7001: Art Fonts

heraldic shields, celtic spirals, arthurian miniatures, floral embellishments
and more. These fonts are intricate so only six could fit on the disk. $15.
Update $5.

More small illustrations and decorative embellishments taken from
original designs and classic print sources, including our popular new Fairies
font featuring images of mischievious little folk. Available in Spring of
