Throrian Commonface Font
Throrian family consisting of 2 fonts
Author's note
Throrian Commonface by Bill Roach is a free medieval Gothic display font with the restless shape of hand-cut storybook lettering. Broad strokes narrow abruptly into hooked feet and sharp tips, and uneven proportions give the letters an unruly silhouette.
It can turn a fantasy title into part of the setting itself. Its theatrical quality suits role-playing covers, festival posters, and folk-metal merchandise tied to castles, legends, or old manuscripts. On tavern signage or event badges, the crooked letters can function like an illustrated emblem rather than ordinary text.

Description
