Rook script is a phonetic syllabic alphabet for English. It has 37 letters, 24 consonants and 13 vowels

Cool cool cool. Looks like a heavily Japanese-inspired katakana style script as far as implied stroke order. I would construct alphabets/abjads/syllabaries in my teens and still do it now

Oh sick! Yeah hangul is the biggest influence but I try to take inspiration from kana and hanzi too

I've been working on one kinda similar (in the way words are formed at least) that is also Hangul-inspired mixed with ideogrammic kanji-style symbols i call 'keystones' where originally they had an ideogram-based system that evolved into phonetic but keeps the ideogram as the 'keystone' of a word

And is drawn larger than the rest with other letter placement starting upper left down to lower right and the keystone also being a category so you know what type of object a word is for based on the keystone ideogram. Similar to in kanji how you know a word is plant-based if it has the "grass" radi

cal at the top of a symbol like 草

What does this look like all together?

It's still a work in progress (literally put like 2.5 hours into it so far) but I'll write something out this evening

Hell yeah

What it really reminds me of is Arabic calligraphy where the positioning of the letters is loose enough that words and sentences can take any shape
