Calligraphy Overview

Calligraphy is the skill of word craft. It is used by the denizens of Alharth to empower their Sword skill abilities, and write stories that can be deposited into bookcases. One such bookcase can be found in the town of Serbule.

Calligraphy is a crafting skill, and thus must be leveled by use of the learned recipes.

It's the art of writing things. With pretty handwriting, basically. But it's so much more than that! Calligraphy requires intense concentration and precision, which will inevitably improve your combat skills, too, especially with the sword.

Plus, at the highest levels of skill, calligraphy becomes something even more. For me, calligraphy is a beautiful meditation on nature and the self. It opens up pathways to your own inner willpower. I promise you'll see real benefits from practicing calligraphy, even if you don't care about writing pretty.
