Hi all,

I saw how Kyushou made a custom alphabet for Elswyr, recently.

And it got me thinking, we might want to implement our own alphabet at some point. I think a type of Mayan Hieroglyph alphabet would be best for the Argonians, perhaps.

I found an "English to Mayan" online dictionary, here:

But we'd probably want to make our own custom glyphs, as pertinent to Blackmarsh stuff.

Also, I was thinking about how such an alphabet should be read. I think it can be read in a "swirl" pattern, like this:

This is not urgent, but just an idea I'm throwing out there.

Nice idea. I'll keep it on the back-burner for after the beta but it's a nice addition and maybe someone without modding skills but with the skills required for this would like to take it up...?
