Summary
The distinctive “Iksar” script seen throughout Kunark—most notably on the walls and signage of the city of Cabilis—is not a standard, publicly‑released typeface but rather a proprietary, bitmap font custom‑drawn by Sony Online Entertainment for EverQuest. Because these glyphs are baked into texture maps rather than stored as a scalable TrueType/OpenType font, they have no official commercial name. Enthusiast communities have, however, identified Livingstone (a decorative blackletter font by Stringlabs Creative Studio) as the closest readily‑available match for recreating the look of Iksar inscriptions, though it too must be tweaked to perfectly mimic the in‑game textures.

Oh my god, that Livingstone font is also the most similar font to that Ardbeg Scotch as one font expert says here. (site may be under maintenance sometimes)

That makes the Ardbeg Scotch an Iksar Scotch. I recommend we claim this for the Iksar Empire as the official Iksar Scotch. It is better than LAPHROAIG. If anyone asks, this is my favorite drink now!
