This is a simple Daedric character font based upon Ayembedt for the letter glyphs, the number system documented by Llevndryn Sershilavu (a.k.a. Naka), and some additional punctuation marks from Source Han Serif to produce a font that is somewhat comfortable to read and write with.

The word hayghin comes from Casual Dumneris and means simple, to denote the sparse features of this font. I have admittedly only added glyphs that suit my needs in Markdown.

Traditionally, the script is unicase, however this font utlizes several alternate Daedric glyphs in the lower-case range.

The alternate glyphs:

d h j u y

Font Punctuation

The font implements the Japanese single quotation marks and full stop. The left and right quote marks are respectively mapped to the square braket keys, [ and ]. (Regular quotation marks are not visible with this font.)

Instead, the single-quote key serves as the critical apostrophe mark.

Apostrophe Period Comma Left Quote Right Quote
' . , [ ]
' . , [ ]

There are further english marks that have been adapted to fit the font, and to aid with writing expression.

Question Exclamation Colon Semicolon
? ! : ;
? ! : ;

Numbers

The dozenal system has been employed for this version of Daedric, but a more common decimal version is available as well.

Decimal

The default variant of this font, simply because of number convention. However, the dozenal system is better for interpretation of numbers among texts related to Morrowind.

Original source for number glyphs is L'alphabet Daedrique en Dunmeris by Naka.

Zero One Two Three Four Five Six Seven Eight Nine Ten
0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10
0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 1'0

To attach another digit, use an apostrophe (').

Dozenal

A system of counting that groups numbers in sets of twelve.

Example

In the darkest days Azura sent her great champion to reform the Broken Promise Blessing. Moon-and-Star, to sing peace, the unbreakable soul of the lost Chimer, would silence devils mad first. So the Hortator challenged Dagoth Ur's army as no god could. The Five Great Houses and Ashland tribes heard the battlecall. Joined as one voice, the Dunmer screamed an end for the blasphemous undead. All come and see in Resdayn old, a newborn dawn. We prayed for your triumphant soul's return, Nerevar.

Et as Hortator sorilke'ag Dagoth Ur'm shaldmas, lakor bahr panthi mugakar. As arc gah'thiil en arador meriaal leyshe'ag as cornayn.
