Thanks :) You sure have an impressive collection of artwork!
I, for one, am dying to find out what colour they paint Michael's toenails.

Yea, I was wondering about the letters too. Come to think of it, have we seen any written material from the other factions? The ones one might think are more inclined :) to writing?

Yes ... we've seen runes :| it that counts and in the campaign when Freyda receives a gift from Elrath there are some strange letters appearing... Also on the dress of Angels is written "die heiligkeit" = holiness in german ... and there are some strange letters when mage opens his scroll ...

Definitely west European inspiration...
Orfinn wrote:Inferno- Hell inspiration, demons, devils from different myths: text- unknown
"Divine comedy" type of Hell ... letters are not really necessary there
;)
Orfinn wrote: Necropolis- Gothic/Transylvanian inspiration: germanic text
Well there are some letters on the swards of the Vampires also German... Nival is quite obsessed with Germany ... The mid-point between them and Ubi :D
Orfinn wrote:Dungeon- Gothic inspiration: relating text?
Well I would rather say it's old Greek type of architecture... Statues all around and open spaces with arches ... Main city is called Konos (like Knossos on Crete and king Minos with Minotaurs)
