The art of writing things. Handy for... writing things. It's also a valuable art for swordsmen and other warriors, who can infuse their art with potent additional effects.

== {{msg:BASEPAGENAME}} 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.
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.
