Below is a selection of 20 different font types that I am thinking of using for my project's overall text aesthetic. Any ideas on which could be suitable for this would be greatly appreciated!

Byzantine Historical Research
After a conversation with Phil today, I looked at different documentaries regarding the Byzantine Empire and feel a renewed outlook towards my work.

@Phil - Concept Idea
I just had a flash thought about how I can add a fantasy element into my character and lair designs with the use of a non-human species. As cannibalism is seen frequently in other animals such as praying mantis, fish, sharks and even orangutans! Would this be an acceptable path?

Hero Prop Research Map
After a conversation with Heidi I got a really firm idea of what my hero prop could be. Taking a more fantasy twist on the Byzantine subject and looking at different symbolic meanings for certain animals. I've decided to do a helmet/cowl of either a Lion, Vulture or Snake. Any suggestions for which animal I should use are welcome.
- Vulture - epitomized greed, corruption and ruthless power.
- Lion - a symbol of power, majesty, wisdom, tyranny, viciousness, dignity, and leadership. The lion represents both Jesus Christ as well as Satan, a wise king or a tyrant.
- Snake - symbolizes Satan; the presence of evil, fall of man, devil

Cannibal Characteristic Map
This mind map of a cannibal's characteristics is a further look at what possibly makes a cannibal tick. This characteristic map points in a totally different direction to what I was previously looking at and makes some of the ideas in previous thumbnails ( eg. pentacles, satanic representations, devil worship, etc.) feel extremely generic. Although this is extremely helpful as it means I can avoid a potentially dangerous avenue early on, the previous 6 thumbnails however serve as a building block.
Project Two: The Secret Lair of the Byzantine Cannibal Research Maps
The character I got for my Secret Lairs project is the Byzantine Cannibal. This particular character plays to my strengths slightly as I am both familiar with the Byzantium Empire and Cannibalism as far as a basic understanding, I am, however, surprised greatly with the research into both key words.
