I was working on my belated postfest submission (my second article about Marisuda and the Cloak of Frogs), and wanted to refer to Suel characters.

I did some digging through the archives and Jason Zavoda's index, but all I came up with were the Hepmonaland Runes [?] in Scarlet Brotherhood on page 37, as well as the usual runes from the Folio and 83 box set.

Are there any canon references to runes? If no canon exists, does anyone have any alphabetic/runic/hieroglyphic/etc. systems that they've developed for Flan, Suel, Oerid, etc. writings?

I started a thread on these boards about which languages were spoken in the Flanaess some time ago. Maybe what we found can be of use for you.

So, here's the link:

Although I personally would generally use Punish/Carthaginian for the Suel (seems to fit for me), or even the Dark Tongue that Tolkien's Men of the East use.

Hope I could help at least a bit.
