Changing terminal fonts

Apologies but I can't find any end-user forums for wayland.

I've got wayland built and running on a minimal Archlinux 64
partition with no X and the terminal font is really weird
and nothing I've tried in the OS seems to change the font
in the terminal. Does the wayland terminal recognise any
env vars or how would I change the default font?

Also, any hints on how I could proceed to pull up wayland
and the terminal directly after the kernel boots (perhaps
after a pivot_root and /sbin/init looking at /etc/inittab)
so I can bypass the normal console?
