Liron

Liron Script was invented by Ruth Hinckley to take notes while
people were looking over her shoulder. The script is similar enough
to English letters that it can still be read at a glance with a little
practice. It was influenced by the Runic alphabets, and was designed to
be written with only straight lines – vertical and diagonal – as if
carving into wood or stone. The numbers were invented independently by
Tom Cook, and added to the alphabet in a collaborative effort.

All characters are drawn with a downward motion, the vertical line
drawn first followed by the diagonals. Though there are capital letters
in Liron Script, these are primarily used for typing, and seldom for
writing by hand. Both Ruth and Tom currently use the script to add flavor
to their individual roleplay campaigns
