Oh man, this brings me back. I remember passing notes in middle school in bootleg Elian script - I'm in my 30s now.

It's by far my favorite cipher because it's easy to read, it's easy to modify if someone else learns to read it, and you get a ton of artistic license with the way your letters look so long as they adhere to the basic framework. Really well formed Elian is unrecognizable as script to someone who isn't looking for it.

Thanks for this, subscribed!

    Hey hey, awesome! Yeah it's super fun. And if you're good at it (I'm not) it can be super creative!

    My buddies and I, and likewise those in this community, try to stick to the standard alphabet arrangement, so we can all read each other's stuff. Though we do dabble in other puzzlery, using basic Elian as a layer of obfuscation.

    Welcome and enjoy!
