Had a big burst of inspiration last week, and finished the rest of the signatures! I'm gonna talk about each one.
Alvideria is a Zombie Buzz, so I made hers by literally dragging the pen at a slow shuffle while holding it awkwardly at the end. Trying to write as Zombie-like as possible
Since Jane is mostly like me, I made it mostly like my own handwriting, maybe a little more compact.
Had to do my own signature a surprising amount of times before I was happy with it.
Mona is a con artist, so I wanted hers to be big and curly and showy, like she's putting on an act.
Saskori is a young Monster Tamer, maybe around twelve or so. Not the neatest handwriting, probably hasn't been taught cursive. Ended up using my normal handwriting for this one.
Starla is a mysterious magic Ixi who lives in the forest. I wanted her signature to look like magic runes.
I wanted something big and bold for my tiny Meerca Explorer.
Do forest spirits even write? This was the last one I did, and I still hadn't used my special calligraphy pen, so I decide to go for it. To me, it looks like what you'd see at the bottom of a contract you've made with Wraithish.

(Storyweaver)And finally, Storyweaver. Hers is an interesting one. First off, Story doesn't actually have a name, or rather, she doesn't tell it to people. She is officially "The Storyweaver," and informally she's called "Story." She's a traveling storyteller, so it fits well enough. Secondly, she's actually illiterate. She'll tell you a story about anything except herself, so like her name, the reason why is secret, but it's fair to say she was simply never taught, as opposed to being unable to read and write. Most people don't know that about Story though, because it really doesn't come up that often in her travels, and she never talks about herself. So what do you do for a signature like that? Well, I finally decided she has a mark instead of a signature, something she can write to represent herself. A standard "X" like you see in the movies, but with a little extra flair. I feel pretty proud of my compromise. It fits her.
