Above: Theban alphabet, submitted by GSW Second Year Xander (Stones Lodge) for the "Staff and Scroll" class. Xander's explanation:

"Also called 'Honorian' after it's inventor Honorius III (1216-1227), this is probably the most popular magick script used, even today. In fact, it is commonly called 'The Witches Alphabet.' I think it should more correctly be known as the 'Wizards Alphabet.' I was struck by the variety of both smooth and straight linework, but also the thick/thin factor. It really challenges the rules of type design, but within that it possesses an interesting flow--especially when treated with a calligraphic touch (changing the baseline, blending some together, etc.)."

Xander invites readers to decipher the coded message underneath the font "keyboard." (Posted with permission)
