Author's note

Latin Uncial, created by Jack Kilmon, is a free Celtic uncial font with a dark, medieval pull. The letters mix broad, tapering strokes with sharp wedge-like points and curling joins, so the font feels manuscript-rooted rather than strictly calligraphic.

It fits book covers, historical posters, folk music packaging, pub branding, and game title cards where that early insular mood helps carry the theme. As a free font, it also works well for chapter openers, short headlines, and monogram-like initials, because the letters have enough sweep and bite to hold attention in just a few characters.
