About Firōglosan
.eq beiŧaqa ōs
Started out as a slightly modified version of one of the Elvish languages I was working on for D&D stuff but has taken on its own life.
This is intended for use by a race of monarchy-ruled, feline-esque elves living in a tropical seafaring kingdom.

Additional NotesTraditionally written with a feather quill or wood nib, though current instruments include various forms of nib pens and styli, including dip-pens and ink reservoir pens, and possibly pencils or a similar dry medium. Typical nib is squared off and held at an almost 90 degree angle to the writing, resulting in broad horizontals and narrow verticals.
