Throrian Formal by Bill Roach is a free decorative display font with the eccentric elegance of storybook capitals. Tall, narrow letters carry sweeping curves, split strokes, and hooked flourishes that recall illuminated manuscripts without copying standard blackletter forms. Uneven contours and lively changes in stroke width give the alphabet a hand-drawn, theatrical quality.
Its medieval fantasy character suits role-playing games, historical-fantasy book covers, and themed event posters. The font is most convincing when the lettering becomes part of the setting, turning a title into an ornate inscription or a sign from an imagined kingdom.

"Throrian Formal" is a hand drawn type set loosely based upon the lettering styles found upon the literary maps of author J.R.R. Tolkien - but this letter set is NOT a direct duplication of any pre-existing typesets, either created by J.R.R. Tolkien - or any other author. It is also inspired by traditional Gaelic and Germanic gothic / medieval lettering styles and illuminated scripts.
