This font was inspired by an image I found on the Web. The *b*, *h*, *p*, and *t* are based on a calligraphy by an eminent North American artist, and the rest of the font was designed to match those characters.

The font name is fancy (pronouncing the X as an s may give it some meaning), and the winged beast on the micro sign is based on a detail from a very elaborate mediaeval inital.

For a change, the XalTerion font has a number sign -- and on the correct key, too! There is a *long s*, but it hasn't been allowed to leave its place. And the only alternate character in this font is a cursive *g* on the bar and broken bar sign.

UPDATE 2010 has considerably downsized the font, has made the stems of the *b*, *d*, *f*, *h*, *k*, and *l* somewhat higher (the 'Th' will look a lot better now), has enlarged the dashes, and has not only redesigned the composite glyphs, but added many new ones. In fact, the font now contains every accented Western character I could find in Arial -- including *O/ohorn*, *U/uhorn* and their derivatives, as well as *Schwa/schwa*.
