Script of the All-Seers

The Script of the All-Seers (Lishan Oiad) was invented by Kitsune Sobo as the native script of the alien All-Seers in the Rhodinoverse. The Rhodinoverse is a fictional multiverse created and illustrated by Kit, and features various species with their own distinct languages and cultures.

In-universe History

The All-Seers (Ollog Oiad), as they call themselves, are descendants of humanity who live in the far future. They are a species that prioritizes forced evolution and "perfection", hence their language and script have been shaped to be as close to that as possible.

Having mastery over time travel, some All-Seers made contact with humans from the past, giving rise to the Enochian language of John Dee and Edward Kelly which is related to their own speech.

The Script of the All-Seers is a hybrid future form of many Earth scripts, including Latin and Cyrillic. The letters were made to look a little messy to give the script an old or archaic look despite being futuristic.

Notable Features

Type of writing system: Alphabet
Writing direction: left to right in horizontal lines.
Used to write: Language of the All-Seers, Enochian
Each letter has a name different from its sound (e.g. Un makes an A sound rather than the expected U).
F and PH represent separate sounds, the latter an aspirated p [pʰ] like in Sanskrit and Ancient Greek.
Punctuation and separate symbols for numbers once existed in the script, but these were removed over time to make the language quicker to write: numbers are written out in abbreviations (e.g. Peoal for 69,636).
The constant orthographic reforms have led to the spoken language itself being impacted (e.g. Iadanamada was gradually shortened to the cluster Iadnamad).
