Samrux
Santa Claus
Some info for the curious inside these two spoilers.
As a kid, I loved to make up alphabets with new symbols to play around with and encrypt secret notes. A week ago, as I looked back into my old papers and after having watched some videos on linguistics, I was inspired to, again, make a new "language" for fun. I started a few days ago and have been tuning it and perfecting it since. All with the sole intent of messing around, logically. And also drawing pretty symbols, because I love me some fancy symbols
.
By now I have it memorized (as in, I don't have to look up anything to know what to draw), but it still requires a lot of thinking. Writing something is more complicated than just going letter-to-letter from English.
So it's this writing system, but it isn't an alphabet. Honestly, I don't know what it is. Apparently it's like an abugida, in which there are symbols for consonants, and the vowels modify the consonant. We end up with a symbol for each syllable of 1-3 sounds, which resembles Korean, in a sense. A symbol per syllable is also what Japanese uses, and it also sometimes ends up sounding like it too. Honestly, to many people it'll all look like weird Chinese and you don't have to think too hard about it. Move on...
I don't know what to name it. Let's call it "samruxbabble" or "samruxspeak". But here's a placeholder title written in fancy samruxbabble. "Sebae":
Here's how the thing actually looks like written down:
"Victor"
"Unity, under gold and fire and black steel."
More examples (spoilered so that this doesn't get cluttered):
As I'm still tweaking the last details, I need input. I'd be glad to write anything you want in samruxtalk for you; just ask.
Have a nice weekend, everyone.
