Author's note

Sprite, by David F. Nalle, is a free fantasy display font with a storybook, slightly medieval air. The letters mix broad curves with sharp, thorn-like points, giving the font a lively, woodland feel that suits its name without slipping into novelty.

It works well on book covers, game titles, festival posters, shop signs, and invitation headings where a little folklore helps set the scene. As a free font, it is especially useful for short branding, chapter openers, and title cards, since the curling forms and pointed joins bring character fast in just a few words.
