Wolves & Ravens 1.1 An TrueType Font by S. John Ross A product of the Cumberland Fontworks http://www.cumberlandgames.com This is a simple fantasy font based on a player handout I created for a fantasy campaign in my teenage years. There was a cryptic message - "Wolves and Ravens Devour the Unwary" - carved into the side of a wooden footbridge, as an omen of things to come. The handwriting was meant to represent a quasi-runic style of Roman letters, of the sort that might be crudely carved with a dagger into the soft wood of the bridge rail. This font expands those characters into a full alphabet of 26 letters, plus 0-9 and a squarish "bullet" that serves as a generic sort of punctuation mark. These are the only characters in the font.

WOLVES & RUIN A TrueType Font by S. John Ross Cumberland Games & Diversions www.cumberlandgames.com Since this month will find my new book, Uresia: Grave of Heaven on game store shelves, and since Uresia inspired my Temphis Runes font set, it felt like a good occasion to revisit my very first fantasy/rune-style font - and in fact one of my very first fonts of any kind: Wolves & Ravens. This new family member, Wolves & Ruin, is an emboldened and stressed adaptation of the earlier font, with very different metrics and a heavy, battle-scarred feel. It would be fun for fantasy handouts and other kinds of decoration. It's caps-and-numerals only, with angular bullets for punctuation, as in the original. This font is copyright 2003 by S. John Ross.

WOLVES ENGRAVEN A TrueType Font by S. John Ross Cumberland Games & Diversions www.cumberlandgames.com "Wolves and Ravens" was one of my very first font designs, and its sequel, "Wolves & Ruin," was a fun font to make, so it seemed natural to make it a trilogy of sorts. This third installment in my mock-runic series takes on the appearance of runes carved roughly in stone or clay, a dramatic relief effect achieved with liberal application of Secret Graphics Juju learned high in the mountains of Tibet (the Photoshop seminars are cheaper, there). Like its predecessors, the whimsically named "Wolves Engraven" is a caps-and-numbers font, with a handful of bullets serving as every other character on the keyboard. It's no good for drafting a term paper in, but it's good fun for a little fantasy decor. This font is copyright 2003 by S. John Ross. "Cumberland Games & Diversions" is a trademark of S. John Ross.
