If you don’t want to draw the letters there is an extension. Lemme bring it up so you can use it. I use it and it is pretty good. Tho it’s kinda difficult to use in dialogues so if you need help with that. Just ask me. If you don’t know how to add extensions. Scroll all the way down on the thingy on the left next to your little game thing and click on extensions. Then look for the extension you want. For ones that aren’t built in like the one I’m about to give you. You paste the URL in the search bar on the extensions.

There. If you want cool words you can paste that so that you can get the extension. Hope it helps

No sadly not. There are built in fonts in the extension already. And one thing I don’t like about it is like you can’t change the size of the words manually
