Post A is for Absinth - a Gothic Alphabet
As a gothic school teacher, I'd love to create and put up some tongue-in-the-cheek gothic versions of classic classroom posters, starting with a Gothic Alphabet. The idea here is that each person ads a letter. I'll start!

A is for Absinth.

These are awesome! However, I was hoping for common nouns so I can make posters. Busy working on the first one, will post when I'm done. Thank you!

N is for Naenia.

-- Nephele
Who really wanted to say "N is for Nephele," another genus of moth, but figured that would have been rather self-indulgent.
