The Runes of Wintermark

The UK-based "Empire" LARP brings us their in-game "Wintermark" rune alphabet.  The 26 character font is downloadable from their website in both TTF and vector formats.  It's used for both magical rituals and items in live action events, and ideal for re-purposing.


The fact they have their own font gives you an idea how immersive "Empire" is.  Browse the rest of their website for some glorious LARP porn, including costumes and themed camps.

Update: In the comments Nicholas Avenell pointed out I wasn't the first to think about re-purposing those glyphs. Harry Dresden beat me to it. Heh.
