There are two character sets used during the events of Ultima VII parts I and II. Note that casting Translation or using a Translation scroll will display the writings in English characters, however they are still written in English even before translation.

Druidic Runes[edit]

Druidic Runes are found on buildings, gravestones and roadsigns throughout both Britannia and the Serpent Isle.

In Britannia, Druidic Runes are slowly going out of style just like the Virtues; new and renovated buildings such as Fellowship halls have signs using Latin alphabet. Additionally no books are written using these runes, further lessening the frequency of their use.

Ophidian Runes[edit]

As well as various serpent motifs and artifacts, the Ophidians used a serpent-based writing system. It is used exclusively on works found in or originating from their ruins. Unlike the Britannians, their books were also written in the runic script.
