Like "Pigeon Street" (see the main Fontworks page), The Alchemist is a font I drew with a particular character in mind - the spindly, mantis-like figure who appears briefly in Ring of Thieves. In truth, he's one of a small stable of "character actors" I use in many fantasy games, a favorite NPC to resurrect for a cameo now and again.<br />
<br />
So, this is how he writes. This font includes more glyphs than just about any other I've done - a full keyboard set plus an oddball smattering of extended characters. I'll probably fix a few things (like the too-faint period) before archiving it on the Fontworks, but I like it enough to do so even if nobody emails me about this one. Enjoy!<br />
