Xaphan II Italic

Xaphan II Italic, from Iconian Fonts, is a free Celtic Gothic italic with a sharp, wind-cut rhythm. The letters lean into long, blade-like strokes and hooked turns that give the font a dark medieval sweep, while the generous curves keep it from feeling stiff or ceremonial.

It fits naturally in fantasy book covers, metal and folk posters, game title cards, pub branding, and short logo work where a free font needs mood before polish. Use it for cover lines, monograms, or brief headings when you want that old-world, spellbook slant without losing the flowing motion that runs through the lettering.
