Description
These are three scripts that can be seen in my game Orphan of the Stars. (Find the website for the game here: wds.rainydays-games.com )Odamanian, another script from the game, can be found here: fav.me/d8m3ydf
Top left is Antenir. The Antenir are an old race that inhabited Aventira (where the game takes place), long ago. They disappeared and nobody knows where they went. Today, only a few scattered ruins are left. Since nobody can read the language, hardly anything is known about them.
"Antenir" is an Ellendilian term, meaning "those who were before us".
Top right is Ellendilia. Originated in the land of Ellendil, the language is considered elegant and sophisticated, which is why it became favored by nobles and scholars. Many religious and scientific texts are written in Ellendilia.
Bottom is Lavendarian. Lavendar is a country east of Aventira. It is a wild, untamed land, dominated by volcanos, hot springs and thick fern forests. The inhabitants are wild tribes that hardly use written language. When they do, it is a script derived from scratch marks.

Apparently, the Lavendarians are experts on Skyrim antiquities.

Yes, the claw was heavily inspired by the claw keys from Skyrim. However, this claw serves a completely different purpose. It is actually a weapon.

I like how you've got three clearly distinct styles of script. Ellendilia looks a lot like cursive English in style, but at the same time, is clearly not. Antenir looks like it might have evolved from something similar to Egyptian hieroglyphics. Lavendarian on the other hand, looks very alien, not like any human script I've ever seen. Just my impressions.

Thanks. And you're right, Antenir was actually inspired by Egyptian hieroglyphs.
